Narsia, Bullet, & Skeil
The battered hybrid sauntered into the alleys with blood staining her scruff, muzzle, and side. The injuries weren't too serious, but Narsia's temper was at a breaking point.
Bullet spotted his sister and padded over to greet her, but was only received with a low growl. Taking a few steps back, he sat back on his haunches. "You were ambushed, huh?"
Narsia sent him a warning glare, "Yeah, kinda looks like it, doesn't it?" She spotted the meat and sauce, which by now had leaked from the bag and was spread over the ground a good distance.
Skeil nodded to Narsia in greetance, "This is all we could find. A hybrid helped us get it; he calls himself Maxim."
Narsia gave a single light nod and began to eat. None of them knew that Aminita was gone; they weren't in the same area where she had wondered off, so they never picked up her scent or that of Ebony's.
Demon
He enters the alleys and puts his snout to the ground. When he sniffs he picks up the packs scent and follows it till he sees the three. He didn't see Aminita so he frowned. "We have food at Pikes Lake..." He said coolly yet trailed off. "Where's Aminita?" He asked. "She came to the alleys we thought..." He looked around for a moment and then waited for a reply.
Narsia, Bullet, & Skeil
Narsia was about to greet Demon, but stopped short when he mentioned Aminita, "She's not with the others?" She asked with a clear hint of fear in her voice. "She hasn't been back here since she first left to go search for food." She gave a questioning look to her brother, hoping he had some answers.
Bullet shrugged slightly, "I haven't seen her either." Although he tried to appear perfectly calm, his eyes betrayed his worry. He looked to Skeil now.
The pit bull shook her head, "I've seen no signs of her as well. Where did you last see her? We should be able to track down her scent." None of them had come across Aminita's scent in the Alleys.
Demon
Demon sighed. His eyes darted back and forth to search for any movements and then he sighs once more. "She was last seen with us then her scent lead here so everyone figured she was with you." He says in his normal cold voice but it carried a hint of worry as well. "Yes good idea. But perhaps one of us should go to Pikes Lake and inform Hydras." He says after Skeil mentioned tracking down Aminita.
Bullet, Narsia, Skeil
Bullet didn't volunteer for telling Hydras that Aminita was lost. He knew how his sister might react, especially from hearing the new from him.
"I'll help you track her." Skeil spoke up. Narsia glanced from Skeil to Demon, "I'll track too, since she is my pup. Bullet, go tell Hydras what's up."
Bullet was about to put up an argument, but knew it was hopeless. His sisters, especially Hydras, bossed him around even when they were pups. And he wasn't about to make a dispute with a mother wanting to look for her lost pup. Clinging to his pride, he simply nodded to the others and loped off for Pike's Lake.
Demon
He nodded and lowered his mug to the ground and sniffed trying to pick up Aminita's scent.
Skeil & Narsia
They both began to sniff about. Skeil searched around the abandoned house they denned in, thinking maybe the pup returned there.
Narsia searched in a broader area, but couldn’t find her daughter's scent. Aminita had entered a part of the alleys that was quite a distance from where they searched.
Demon
He began to run sniffing the air till he smelt a familiar scent. He howled for Skeil and Narsia. He smelt Ebony then noted Aminita's scent with a worried snarl. He sat. What if something happened to her. He was ready for a fight if needed. He'd give the enemies something to worry about if Aminita was harmed in the least bit.
Narsia & Skeil
The two came racing over quickly, sniffing at the air and picking up the same information that Demon had.
Narisa's fur raised and she cricked her tail to express her distress and alarm, "Ebony." she said lowly, as if the name was poison to the one that spoke it. "My daughter's scent is mingled with the enemy's! And there is some scent I don't recognize... some lone wolf; hopefully not a member of the Alley pack."
Skeil also read the information as much as she could and spoke her conclusions, "Aminita's scent follows Ebony's; no doubt our enemy has led her away! There is no blood or sign of struggle though; I don't believe Ebony or her pack would kill a pup, especially one that didn't know she was speaking to an enemy." The pit bull paused then finished up her speech, "It's clear she isn't in the Alleys now, but I'll bet anything Ebony led the pup to Fresca and the rest of the wretched pack. Should we follow the scent now, or bring along some reinforcements just in case?"
Demon
He snarled. "Yes it is as it seems. I think reinforcements would be good but the only problem is will we have time to get them?"
Narsia & Skeil
Narsia glanced from Demon to Skeil before replying, "I could make a run to Pikes Lake to call for the rest of the pack, since I'm faster than Skeil. You two could continue to follow the trail but try to stay undetected by our enemies."
Skeil sniffed at the trail once more, read to fight if they must to get Aminita back.
Demon
He nodded to Narsia. "Ok that works." He says coolly and then begins following the trail with Skeil.
Narsia & Skeil
Narsia sprints off as fast as she can to Pikes Lake.
Skeil follows intently after the scent with her ears pressed forward and her blunt muzzle to the ground. She follows it to the Woodland Farm.
Hydras & Narsia
Narsia didn't take long to reach Pikes Lake and tell her sister what had happened. After Hydras ordered Bullet to stay with the pups, she and her sister returned to the Alleys as fast as their legs could carry them. They raced over to where Demon was and sniffed around to pick up the scent. "Bullet is watching after the pups, and Kiarra might come along with us." Hydras announced to Demon.
Kiarra
She arrived soon after Hydras and Narsia did. She was now almost as tall as Hydras, she was a young adult. A worried look was on her face as she waited to be told what to do..
Ninaki
Ninaki came in shortly as well with his tail cricked and ridged to express his concern and agitation. With one ear back and the other tilted forward, the hybrid began to sniff around a bit, then stopped to wait for his alpha's orders.
Demon
He runs after Skeil to the Woodland Farm.
Hydras & Narsia
Seeing that Demon hadn't heard them, Hydras leads her pack on after him, heading for the Barn at the Woodland Farm where Aminita's scent lead too.
Ninaki
He followed beside his mate. His ears were pressed forward and his tail was held straight out behind him.
Kiarra
She fallowed behind everyone, keeping an eye out for any enemy...
