Night swipes her bones in the hole and tosses some dirt on them. "I agree. I bet the alpha is sending us out tomorrow, and I believe we are supposed to be at camp for that." Nightingale stands up. "Witch direction should we go?"

Alari | F | Fighter | M: Fenrys

Alari listened to their plot or conversations intently. As they realized that they have been gone for quite a bit of time. She watched as they started to leave for camp. Her eyes watched them closely waiting for them to fully disappear to follow. Though she sat firmly on the ground. Alari has been fighting herself since she was younger. To become a loner and leave or watch her older brother destroy the bonds of other’s for his own political ambitions. He was chosen over her and he chose Fenrys over as beta than her. Though she did not blame the beta over that. Nor was she jealous now like she was when he was chosen. It was more of pity as Fenrys is seen almost aiding Matzaka only due to his position.

She slowly moved back to camp haunted from her past. Sometimes she debates if she should turn back and run out of the pack’s grounds or face what her brother is doing: driving the pack into a swan dive to the ground. Does it really matter at this point? To overthrow an alpha meant someone had to take that position. Luckily no one has turned to her. Honestly she had reason for doubt, she would be chosen as her name has been tainted from another. His own reputation has been dimming her own that was out of her own control. She looked to find Fenyrs almost into camp.

She slowly barked, “Fenyrs, when you find the time today. Could we speak? Come find me later if you can.”

Though she did not wait for his response. She had more things to do. Possibly just let her mind run into scenarios or just find a way to bring Mayzaka to justice. She looked around for her brother. She wanted to shun him and tell him what he was doing would cause heartache to their parents. Though she knew he would never listen, maybe even care. He was too far gone as he let the alpha position cloud who he truly was.

“I’m not planning on it. That is simply the worst case scenario. I’m not gonna do anything to cause a challenge.” He nodded, not particularly wanting to challenge Matzaka. The fight would be brutal and it would be a fight to the death. One mistake was all it would take. And it could guy either way. As much as Blu disliked everything about Matzaka, the one thing he can be impressed by is that wolf’s physical prowess. He was a good wolf to have in a fight, taking on multiple wolves; much like Blu himself. Matzaka was no wolf to mess around with. He was a calculated killer in a fight. Making near to no mistake.

-
“And yes, it probably would be best.” He nodded and padded into camp, his eye catching Alari’s figure approaching them. Alari made no move to greet or even acknowledge his presence. But that’s how she had always been with everyone really. Always the loner. And Blu had a guess as to why. But it was only a mere guess. He didn’t know anything about her really, other than who her brother is. Which made him wary of her. Though from what he could tell they weren’t really anything alike. He was an egomaniac who would do anything for himself and she seemed like a selfless wolf. But alas, he did not know for sure. Maybe she was a spy to get into the inner circle of the wolves who heavily dislike the alpha. He was drawn from his thoughts as he heard Nyx and Echo speaking. His eyes locked on and he padded over to the pair.

“Nyx, I don't see the whole reason for teaching me how to hunt. I haven’t needed it and I doubt I will. Fenrys is good enough at basically everything. Plus the other three have all ha-” Echo was cut off by Nyx, “And what happens if you get separated? Or if they all get injured and you’re the only one who is able to hunt? What then?” Nyx growled, obviously irritated with the young wolf. “Just wait until Blu gets here.” Nyx said, which earned a rather rebellious huff from Echo. Nyx just chuckled softly. Echo didn’t want to get it. She didn’t want to see the reasoning behind Nyx’s words… But she couldn’t not see it. It was so obvious, but Echo didn’t want to accept it. She didn’t want other wolves to be depending on her. The whole fact she’s a healer is only because of her nose, but she had never voiced that thought. Nyx had explained to her that it meant she was an important part of the pack, and Matzaka would get backlash if he tried to get rid of her.

Echo looked at Nyx and glared at the slight smirk that she wore before looking back to the ground. Nyx could read Echo like a book and she hated and loved it. Because it meant they were super close, but Echo couldn’t hide anything from her. And that frustrated her. “Speak of the devil.” Nyx’s voice caught Echo’s attention and she looked up to see Blu padding towards them, his large frame easily distinguishable from most wolves. Not to mention his eyes that practically glew against his black fur. Blu tapped his nose to Nyx and then to Echo before speaking, “How ar-” Nyx cut him off, “Oh skip the pleasantries. I know you don’t care for it and know we’re fine.” Nyx playfully teased her brother, standing up and walking towards the forest. “Now that you’re here, I’m gonna go see if I can’t track down that herd of deer that roams our valley. See ya guys!” Nyx padded towards the exit, dipping her head to Fenrys. Echo looked from Nyx’s receding form and back to Blu, her cold glare softening at the look Blu was giving her. “Already on edge?” He asked, sitting next to her. She looked away. “This is stupid. I don’t want people to have to rely on me. I want to do my own thing.” She growled lowly, only loud enough for Blu to hear. “Plus I’m only an apprentice! What is that alpha thinking, sending not only me, but Timber, who is younger than me, away on a dangerous mission?” Her claws dug into the dirt below her paws, her lips starting to peel back at all the ill thoughts bouncing in her skull before a tap on her side drew her attention back to Blu. He had a soft smile, only one that Echo saw. And she could never be angry when she saw it. It had a way to melt her anger away.

-

“Are you done with your rant?” Blu asked playfully to which Echo responded with a curt nod. Blu couldn’t read Echo as well as Nyx could, but he was much more patient with her. And didn’t offer her a stupid solution that she already knew. Sometimes she just wanted to rant, and Blu gave that to her. “I know… You don’t want to learn how to hunt, let alone fight. But due to the severity and danger of this mission, it’s not an option.” Echo opened her mouth to say something back but Blu tapped her bottom jaw shut with his paw. “You said you were done.” Blu said, to which Echo gave him a pointed look before looking away. Blu sighed before continuing, “I know you don’t want to do this but it’s not an option. Before you get angry, I asked Fenrys and he said he’s willing to train you.” Her gaze hardened at him talking about a wolf training her, but softened slightly at the mention of Fenrys. She didn’t know the wolf. Not personally. But Blu and Nyx trusted him with their lives. So she naturally followed suit. Doesn’t mean this was gonna be any easier on her. She was still appalled at the thought. She sat for a moment, her gaze locked onto Fenrys a little longer then she meant it too and quickly looked away. “Does he want to right now?” She asked and Blu looked at Fenrys, motioning him over with a swipe of the head.

|| Akiza | Apprentice | F | Mentions: Leaf (And anyone else)||

Akiza observes the interaction from the shadows, only her icy-blue eyes could be faintly seen. Flicking her ears in annoyance, turning her head away from the comotion and over to the entrance of the camp.

Her tail twitches slightly as she scents the air, seeing if she could scent any kind of prey scent, wanting to find a rabbit or something to give to Leaf. Even though she didnt really support anyone who went against the Alpha, she did respect her elders. Getting to her paws, she turns to leave the camp, provided that no-one decided to stop her on her way out.

Echo’s ears twitched as some bickering happened off to the side. She was wondering who it was, but didn’t particularly care about it. It was none of her business, so she kept to herself. She couldn’t afford to grab the wrong wolf’s attention. Especially one particular. Tedashii. Blu had warned her about him. He was almost as crazy as the alpha. And just as loyal. Blu had told her that he would do anything the alpha ordered without hesitation. What a dog. She glared at the ground before Fenrys’ angry voice caught her attention. He head whipped to the side and finally understood what the commotion was about at the retreating figure of the wolf Blu had told her about.

-

She sighed and was about to look back at the ground when a voice spoke up. She looked to Fenrys, quickling dipping her head in greeting and lowering her tail quickly, bringing it along her side on the ground. She looked up momentarily at Fenrys, nodding timidly. “Y-Yes, he did…” Dips head back to ground, looking at her paws. Normally she didn’t have this much trouble keeping eye contact with a wolf, but Fenrys was different. He exuded dominance. It’s not that she didn’t want to look at him. She just couldn’t look at him. “A-Are we going to be starting r-right now?” Looks up at Blu then to Fenrys, then back to Blu.
