|Marbled|F|Hunter|Eastern|M: Sorrel| Marbled dragged the deer into camp. Her back hurt, and her gut had started burning again. Not good... She dropped the doe, and looked up, panting. .
Her gaze went around camp, trying to see if Brecken was up. It appeared not... Lazy little thing. She turned to Sorrel. "Thank you for hunting with me! It was fun! We should do it again sometime!" Her tail wagged, and she seemed to have a smile on her face as she panted. . Marbled turned to look for the other group, but it seemed like they maybe beat them! Licking her maw, she turned to look outside of camp, her nose in the air sniffing. "I'm going to go get water. I'll be back." She said, limping off towards the river; her throat sore and dry. . She limped through the woods, silently, listening to the birds as they sang. Picking up the faint smell of her brother, she picked up a trot, wanting to tell him what a good hunter Sorrel had been. She was disapointed when she reached the river and his scent seemed to disapear. She gave the forest around her a glare like it was the forest's fault, and lapped at the cool water. |

Alha | F | Alpha | SUP | M: Harry, Killjoy, Bardou & Laan(ind) Alha was watching the interaction when she heard Shadow's instructions for his patrol. Harry hadn't been far from her, which she was thankful for, but he was also in a glaring mood it seemed like. Killjoy nodded to her and she gave him a smile with her response, "Indeed. It was a pleasure seeing you again and I hope to see you in hunts to come." After Killjoy was gone, she got up before giving Harry a hard yet knowing look. Gesturing for him to follow, she walked down to the river so they were out of the wolves hearing range before speaking.
"I know you do not like the wolves, but we will have to work with them. Just until our life is back to normal. You don't have to trust them, but I trust Alpha Killjoy to keep the pact. I do not know the Raven pack so you can stay wary of them. I'm not sure why they sent a scout to help with the pact but Alpha Shadow is staying with the Raven pack so we will have to deal with it for now." She said in an ordely fashion. Once the wolves was gone, her ears relaxed as did her posture. She let out a sigh before shaking her head, "We need to learn how to fish at least. And hunt. I would love if someone would teach us and maybe Shadow will later, but I don't want those wolves to think of us as helpless." Alha frowned slightly, her tail flicking, signaling her stress. |

Silver | F | Loner | M: Humans(ind), Fox group(ind) Silver woke up right before dawn and yawned, scents filling her nose. She jerked upright before remembering where she was. That's right, a camp. She couldn't figure out why there was so many scents of foxes though intermixed with wolf scents. The gravel around the camp had given her indication that a blind wolf might have lived here as well. Shaking her head, she tucked her skull into a nook in the corner of her den before creeping outside. Stalking around the clearing, she listened as she crept forward. There. A soft rustle in the bushes made her freeze before starting forward again.
She slunk around until she was downwind and could tell it was rabbit. Waiting only a second more, she lunged forward, snapping it's neck before it could so much as squeak. Silver carried the rabbit back to the campsite before laying down to chow down. Considering she was pretty hungry from not eating much the day before, it was gone in a matter of minutes. She laid, soaking in the sunlight for a few minutes until the sun was completely up. Now that it was no longer dawn, it was time to get a move on.
Pulling her skull out of the nook, she positioned it so it would hurt her mouth before starting out again. She could hear humans nearby which meant that she must be close to the town. One step closer to the burned forest on the other side. And then one step closer to her father. She ran at a steady pace, making good time to the construction site. Which made her stop in her tracks. Everywhere she looked, there was humans and their equipment. And when she looked beyond, there was just more. Silver's ears started to lay back, no no, she had come so far! There had to be something more.
Which brought her back to the town and the territory she was in. She did not know the town and could easily get caught if she tried to go in there. However, as she already learned, there had been a pack in this territory and probably had only moved a bit to get away from the humans. Which meant that she could get directions and maybe even some help to get across town. Silver frowned at that, her ears flattening on her head. Asking for help. She did not like that phrase.
Whatever. If it got her one step closer to her dad, then she would do it. Her eyes softened at the thought. She knew that her dad probably didn't know she existed, let alone if he was even still alive. She didn't know how exactly to tell him which was a sure sign she had to keep this raven skull with her. Silver knew it would be awkward but maybe he would let her live with him? Her mom hadn't specified if he was the lone wolf type or a pack wolf. Although, considering you had to go through a fox trap forest, it might not be a good sign for a pack.
A loud yelling jolted her out of her thoughts follwed by a fox laugh. Yep, time to get out of there. She retreated quickly, steering clear of the humans and the incident that she could partially see. Tracing her steps back, she loped back towards the camp before feeling the gravel under her paws. It guided her back to the main cave where she put the skull down and put her paw on top of it, thinking of ways to find the pack to get directions. |

Talia
Scout | F | Raven Pack | Mentions: Night
"I think you need to cut yourself some slack, Alpha," she spoke after listening to him speak, deciding to first try and offer some comfort. "These are not easy times, and I think everyone of us knows you're doing your best. Who knows what would happen to this pack without you. So, I think you're doing the best you can with what you've been given and that is all anyone can ask for," Talia's voice in it's lower octave wasn't loud or intrusive, she let it come out in barely above a whisper so it might be more soothing.
Her ears flicked for a second at the mention of the pups, sadness settling into the pit of her stomach. Pups, mate, motherhood. It was also something Talia desired one day, so the idea of losing pups was something that hung over her like a visible cloud. "I did not expect to return to the pack grieving for so much loss. I'm sorry, Night," her voice was soft, genuine, not only for their loss but for not realizing sooner how difficult this year had and was going to be.
Her attention turned to him and she frowned and then gently bumped his shoulder with hers. "Sometimes wolves make rash decisions in the moment. Something could have happened or they could have seen something, or even just decided it was time to go. Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason. Unless you know what happened, I would not let it haunt your mind, Alpha. There is no making sense of the madness of the world," her eyes flicked out away from them, scanning the area for any sign of threat or anything really.
Her attention drifted to the lake as they approached and she frowned for a moment as he spoke of Brute. It was concerning that their Beta was missing, and she couldn't imagine the stress on Night at the moment, but she wanted to help. "How can I help? |

Rowan
Hunter | M | Raven Pack | Mentions: Shiva, Anya
To say the male was completely lost in thought would have been a tremendous understatement. His eyes were barely taking in the direction he was headed, instead they were scanning his mind and thoughts and feelings. It wasn't until Shiva walked up and spoke to him, and about three seconds afterwards that he snapped out of it.
"Huh?" Was his first response as his eyes focused on the she-wolf, and then he nodded, remembering what she said. "Oh. Yes. Fishing. Good plan. I need the practice so I'll come," his voice was a bit deadpanned, his features clearly tortured by the thoughts running through his mind. He thought the distraction of being trained for fishing would help him, and he offered Shiva a brief grateful smile that he paired with a nod.
Long legs carried him to the she-wolf's side, but he paused, looking over his shoulder as another joined them, declaring that she hadn't disappeared. His forehead wrinkled at her words, his brain too overwhelmed with thoughts to decipher what exactly it meant. Did she mean she hadn't disappeared all that time ago? Or she hadn't disappeared right now? Mentally, he shook his head trying to clear his thoughts and turned back to Shiva for a moment.
"I'm fine with it, but I think it is up to Shiva since she's the one teaching," his words were directed to Anya, before he switched to speaking directly to Shiva. "I have no skill at fishing, so thank you." |

Bardou // Beta // Raven // Mentions: Laan // Pack *Dir* Bardou listened to Shadows words and gave a nod. She then stood up and flicked her banner to laan asking him to follow her. Course they would go back to camp but, Night had also granted her permission to bring a scout so she would ensure such a permission was used. Once out of range from the dogs and shadow she paws her paw pads sinking into the disturbed mud upon the path. Quickly she scented the air before she turned to Laan. "We are going to do a quick patrol of Shadows territory closest to his meadow to see where preys been frequenting and how often.. we shall also find vantage points for hunting." Bardou explained her audits angled forwards in a calm assertive fashion. Honestly, it wasnt much different then how she held them on a hourly bases. Flicking her banner she nodded to his leg. "You still good to keep going?" Bardou asked as she turned partly to continue but if Laan said he needed a break they would do this another day. Though, she would probably continue alone if he decided to head back. She was a big wolf and had handled herself in many different situations. The breeze blew into her coat putting her gaurd hairs on end as its cool fingers brushed the skin beneath. |

|Illusion|M|Lead Hunter|Eastern|M: Krestel, Malicia| Illusion nodded at Krestal, and stood up. He gave Malicia a scared look before running towards the river, moss in mouth. Worry overpowered his system, and he got a rush of adrenaline. His head was spunning slightly as he ran to the river. He barely slowed down before dropping the moss in the river. . Illusion was panting, and he looked around, wanting the moss to hurry. After a bit, he picked up the soaked moss, and ran back towards the camp. He was trying to be careful with where he put his paws, and stumbled only a couple of times. . He hesitated at the hill before climbing up it. His powerful shoulders and hindquarters doing most of the work. His large, thick build soon made it up the hill, and without missing a beat, he picked up a lope. . His ears were perked as he entered camp. His brown and white pelt was brushed back from the gentle breeze, and it helped cool him down. He laid the moss by her head, and flopped down on the other side of Malicia. .
He nuzzled her neck, and whispered into her ear. "How are you feeling?" Before burying his head in her fur. . A part of him had been scared that when he came back, she would be gone. He took in her scent, not wanting to let it leave his sense of smell. |

|Killjoy|M|Alpha|Eastern|M: Shadow, Silver|
Killjoy followed behind Shadow. He was taking in the forest, trying to find an land mark that he could go by if he were to ever come back without a guide. His mind was scanning, and mapping out the area as he walked along. . He didn't dare speak as he was mentally mapping out the land from what he could see; he didn't want to ruin it, and have to start all over. Wait, what does it look like behind me? He stopped, and turned around to look. So, that crooked tree is x amount from the path I need. His blue eyes moved all over the place as he quickly took in the information, and tried to process it. . He turned back to Shadow, and started walking again. After a bit, he let his mind rest, and sniffed the air. Pine, foxes, moss, dirt, birds.... Silver? He had a confused look on his muzzle. Huh, I guess she made it! But so far out? He looked around, sniffing the air. He was trying to figure out where her scent was coming from. But, he couldn't put his paw on it. . "Hey, Shadow, how much farther?" He asked, picking up a trot to catch up with the faded black male. Once he matched Shadow's stride, he slowed down to a walk, and fell in step by step. Killjoy, as usual had a smile on his maw, his ears were perked and alert, but the body was relaxed. He seemed to be happy just to be there, and looked like he was enjoying himself. |

|Sky|F|Loner|M:Orien| Sky listened to Orien, and nodded. She lowered her head, and stalked towards the deer. She flicked her ear at Orien, hearing he bolt off, she ran after him. She may not have been able to see what was happening with the deer, but she could hear. . Sky heard the deer trip, and the air leaving her lungs as she feared for her life. Sky paused as Orien jumped onto her hurt leg. She smiled, and let out a yip before jumping onto the doe. . She bit her shoulder, helping bring her down. The blood rushed into her mouth, and her eyes lit up. . She heard the leg break, and stepped back as the doe struggled with the new pain. It wasn't long before she attacked again. Only this time, she went for the neck. . It took her some time to properly latch on with the doe's movement and her own issues, but once she was able to, the scarlet liquid began to flow down her white chest. Sky stepped back, the doe panting, with her life slowly fading. . Sky sat down, panting. For once, she was happy that she couldn't see the mess that the doe was in. If she could, she most likely wouldn't hunt anymore. She looked over at Orien. "Good job! Your trick worked really well! I will be trying it in the future!" She said, her tail thumping the ground. |

Night | M | Alpha | Raven | M: Talia, Brute(ind) Talia's response came out in a soothing tone and Night let it roll over him. At her apology, Night shook his head, "Don't be. It's going to be a harder winter than normal but with the packs working together, we should be able to make it work." She bumped his shoulder which surprised him for a moment before he gave her a smile. "Your right. As for Brute..." His smile faded into a frown, "He had gone hunting but I did not find him when I went looking for him before."
Night paused, coming to a halt before flicking an ear at Talia to stay put. He slowly turned his head before hearing the vibration on the wind. Only reason he could hear it so well was because it sounded overtop of him. He looked straight up, not seeing anything before barking to Talia and flattening himself to the ground. A flying human contraption was now almost parallel with them and dropped something out of the side. It then rose to move towards the center of the mountain.
Night stood up to watch it disappear into the clouds before a snarl came from behind him. He turned around slowly to see a large white cougar in front of him. No, that was a not a cougar. Too furry. And it had spots. He didn't have much more time to think about it because it charged him and he jumped back before lunging forward. They traded bites and scratches, it's claws clawing his shoulder as he bit it's leg. It yowled before whacking him with its tail and jumping at Talia. Night growled, lunging again at the cat, scratching it when he could and slowing its progress to his scout. |
