"Valued friend? So, do you foxes follow her around all the time?" He asked and pulled off a piece of bark before he sat down. "You foxes are weird. Protecting wolves even though they can protect themselves to a certain extent." He breathed in a tiny bit of air. "What did your alpha say to my sister about protecting her? He doesn't need to concern himself with her as I will do it for him." She's my sister. Of course I will protect her.

Icicle cackled, "Good luck getting Shadow to stop protecting her. Or teaching her how to hunt and fight for that matter. He can be very determined. And yes, we do follow her around sometimes depending on where we are. Although, considering she has a lover now, she doesn't need much of our attention." Icicle rolled back onto her feet before cleaning her tail. Might as well get something useful done while talking.

Yang looked at the fox as she cleaned her tail. "You never explained how she met this 'lover' of hers." He said, his eyes glaring ever so slightly. "Who are they and are they dangerous?" He asked, chewing on the bark a little. He usually does this when he is angry or nervous. Instead of acting terrified and shaking like his sister, he chewed on the bark to calm his nerves. Focusing on something other than the thing he wants to hurt.

Icicle turned her head towards him, "What do I look like? A know-it -all?" She scoffed before jumping down. "Why don't you just go ask her for goodness sake? I can't tell you everything." She jumped back onto the branch before making her way around to the tree on his other side. "I will answer that question though. If you harm him, you deal with Shadow. End of that discussion." She said, her eyes narrowed at him.

"Oh? Is Shadow this alpha you foxes follow?" He asked before standing up. He clawed the chewed bark and slid it off to a nearby bush. He saw in the corner of his eyes a snake that tried to attack the bark but ended up failing and he shook his head at it. I suppose the fox is right. Though some snakes are smart. He thought and then started walking away. "Icicle, can you bring me to this Shadow or your brother? I need to talk with one of 'em."

Icicle chuckled before jumping down. She seemed to land on thin air before the wolf opened his eyes. "Meet Shadow, my alpha." The pure black wolf stepped out of the shadows, raising an eyebrow at Yang. Shadow flicked his ears, looking the other wolf over. Icicle curled up on Shadow's back, "And yep, he's been here the whole time." She cackled, causing Shadow to flick his ears annoyed at her again.

Knight felt cleaner after Seya removed all the bugs in his fur, he saw some crawl into her fur and started picking out small beetles and ants. he then got up for a quick second and got two big leaves full of water he dumped some on Seya, the muddy water filled with soot seeped in the ground. He could now see Seya's radiant white fur

|Killjoy|

Killjoy stalked the klipspringer. He sprung out at it, and grabbed its throat. He bit down hard, and it went limp. He turned around towards River.

"Let's go." He said, his voice muffled. He walked through the forest, and back to the pack. He set down all the food they had caught and went to lay under tree, where no one could see him. He sighed, and put his head on his legs.

|Marbled|

Marbled trotted over to the food. She was really really hungry! She had never been know to always be hungry, sometimes she would go a day without eatting. She picked up a mouse, and trotted over to Brecken.

Yang looked at Shadow and made a mental note of him. "So you are the one I smelled before." He shook his head and stopped walking. "Hello, alpha Shadow." He bowed his head a little before flicking his ears. "How long have you known Seya?" He asked, realizing how much the fox trusted this wolf considering she was on his back.

~~

Seya looked at him as he poured the water over her and stepped back. She then shook her fur, making more soot and water fall off. As well as small clumps of broken fur dropped to the ground. She looked at him and then smiled. "You look much better now, Knight." She bowed her head and smiled.

River stalked up before pouncing on a klipspringer, killing it instantly. Looking back at Killjoy, she saw that he got one too. Nodding to him, she followed him back before picking up her prey and dropping it in the clearing for the pack.

Shadow

Shadow flicked his ears, his eyes narrowed at the male before he blinked. "I've known her for a while now, she's been helping me with my forest." He finally said, his eyes scanning the wolf for anything. His eyes landed on the snake for a couple seconds before staring into the wolf's eyes again. "And it's just Shadow. I don't prefer the title of alpha quite yet."
