Danger and Company

With his nose to the air, Danger led the group to the Farm. He caught the faint scent of the Lurkers, but he discovered it was only lingering from their last visit. Once out of the tree line, he lifted his head and parted his maw. A song leaked out, telling those that had fallen behind they had made it. It also served as a way to inform the lady of their arrival. It taken them quite a while, since all had sustained many injuries and stealth was a key factor.

Blazed had been deep in thought through out the trip, and had forgotten much of what was going on around him. His sire's howl snapped him out of his daze to find that Raven had disappeared from his side. Panicked he turned and thundered through the brush. Maybe she'd taken a moment to rest? Or maybe the Lurkers... He snarled quietly to himself. Raven was nowhere to be found. He returned to his sire's side, his nose instantly going to the ground. His hackles rose for a brief moment, but his fierce stature passed and he side stepped to exit the underbrush as his sisters' howl warned them that they were near.

Dangerous Summer had doubled back to search for Raven, Fresca, Ebony, and that other, but no one was found. "Vindari, they're gone." Her dejected tone led her sister to whip around harshly. Dangerous Summer disregarded the look and hurried after Blazed.

Vindari glared daggers at Summer for giving up so easily. She knew the chances of them appearing out of nowhere were slim, but she was one not to leave anyone behind. And those canines were not just anyone, they were closest thing to a pack that they had. If only her mother were here. There would have been a different outcome; there would have been bloody hell to pay. Her death impacted Danger's ability fight. He had not much of a reason to live for anymore. Blazed had a pack, he was part of Fresca's, but he was unusually quiet and suddenly over protective. Dangerous Summer was less outgoing and kind. It was up to her to keep them going. She had to find Fresca and the others. On impulse, she threw her head heavenward and released a high-pitched howl that split the silence after Danger's call. To her surprise, Danger's howl suddenly took the lowest octave, Blazed's just above their sire's, and Dangerous Summer's took a high note below hers. Vindari's voice peaked and died with the others when she was sure the whole world had heard their song. Triumphant in the act the she'd organized her first pack howl; she took a lively gait after her sister.

Ankh

Having come out with the worst of wear on his side during the fight, Ankh was taken to the Woodland Farm. Much against his will. Blood loss and infection had endangered his life after the horendous, gaping wound that he recived from Raven.

The ill-tempered hybrid was laying mute near the far corner of the house, partially concealed by the leafless bushes. His tall, dark ears shot up at the sound of his howl and his eye darted simutaneously towards the newcomers. Hackles were raised upon instinct. Here where the enemies! But woe to Ankh; his entire pack was off at the Ruines and engaged in another fight. Being in no condition to fight, the yound adult hunkered down and hoped that his presence wasn't betrayed to his enemies.

Fresca

Being dethrowned once was a horrible thing. But for it to have happen a second time? Everthing was going wrong... many of her old friends had died, and Kasna was missing. Even Dream's daughter was now gone, and Fresca couldn't help but feel that it was a let down to her old-time friend. Her spirit was greatly hurt and sullen, but it was Danger and his kin that held a thread of hope in her heart.

Bloodied and sore, the defeated alpha came into view several minutes after her friends. She made her way towards them and swished her tail faintly at their sight. "I fear for the others. I don't to leave anyone behind..." She was very unsure that all would come to the Woodland Farm, but she didn't want to show her doubts to everyone else.
