Colonel Kent rubbed his eyes, the visit hadn't gone as he had planned. Moving to the communications room, he sat at the microphone and called his commander at NORAD.
"General, we learned a lot tonight. The good news is that the area between Salmon and Missoula will be self-sufficient soon. They are organized, efficient and require minimal aid if any."
"And the bad news, Colonel?"
"It reminds me a little of Somalia, General. Their allegiance, it isn't to the United States of America any more. These werewolves, they are loyal to Pack first and foremost. You can work with them, but they won't accept command from anyone else, it's not in the Alpha's nature. They are working together well, but their highest government appears to be their Alpha Council."
"And why is this such a problem?"
"You have to understand the difference between humans and werewolves, General. It's an evolutionary leap between us and them. They are stronger, healthier, can see better, they can communicate over distances using telepathy. They are also organized, with a defined structure and unit discipline. Our only advantage is our helicopter; they can use our weapons as well as we can, and you know there are thousands of them out there for them to use. If they ever decided to attack us, we wouldn't stand a chance."
He paused for a moment. "And they are growing. They are turning and training humans at a rapid rate, they are building an army under our noses. We can't let them get more established, or we won't have a chance. They are truly the dominant species now."

Anonymous11 months agoMy bleak prediction for how this world would end up. Somalia isn't a bad analogy.
The current peace between packs seems to be an anomaly, usually neighboring packs fought each other. It might only take a year with supplies running out before these packs started raiding each other, or at least within a generation as new leaders took over. You would get a world divided into small groups of around 100 werewolves in, at best, uneasy peace with each other. While previously the need to keep secret from humans had limited wars that obstacle would also be gone.
Small groups like this is not enough to rebuild any manufacturing base so as old gear wore out society would return to a more and more primitive state. Unlike with humans, for werewolves the structure of society is genetically determined so it's not certain we'd ever see larger states evolve as they did in our world.
What werewolves would excel at is raiding nearby human groups that tried to rebuild society, so humans would not fare any better. Then while humans can be converted to werewolves the opposite isn't true. If werewolves ever took over completely there would be no going back.
Anonymous11 months agoPurplefizz, there will be some areas that had enough cover for plants and insects to survive. Deep canyyns, cave opening etc. The wolves will have to carefully survey the countrysida and collect seeds and grubs to speed up recovery, but that won't make for a very interesting story, I fear. Some survivalists are bound to have stored supplies of seed in their bunkers as well.
Anonymousabout 1 year agoThere is a sequel, where they go into detail about what you expressed Anonymous.
Anonymousabout 1 year agoI had always hoped you would write a sequel to this very excellent story. Say 6 or 9 months down the line. The new packs being formed in territories basically empty and everyone both human and wolf working together to build a new life. All the packs sending out search teams much further out to look for survivors and bring the back if they wanted to. How would it pay out with the surviving military? Would they accept the status quote or try to enforce their will upon the Weres? They are probably outnumbered 10 or more to one and things probably turn out badly for the military if they tried to enforce marshal law. NORAD is a paper tiger, all bark and no way to back upon their threats.
