Bandit, Star, Night

Bandit runs in and searches for Sivinith. When he sees her he yips. "I feel better now but my head hurts alittle. Tolacca dosent seem much better though." Bandit says worridly.

Star runs in and speaks next. "Kana told us to come ahead and tell you shes gonna carry Tolacca to you. She was afraid youd get the wrong idea if you saw her with Tolacca without you knowing.

Night ran in but he stayed behind Star keeping his trap shut.

Bandit grinned. "Mom can Kana and Night visit every once in awhile oh and Dark Star? Please!" He begged for he knew Night and Kana and Dark Star would like to visit. Bandit had called Sivinith mom for the first time for she was a second mother to him. The same withStar. "Yeh mom!" Star yips begging.

Kana

Kana came in slowly with the cub in her mouth. She gently set her down at Sivinith and stepped back, "there, she is very weak..." she said in a low voice...

Tri-Tundra

Tri-Tundra loped at an extremely fast pace, but slowed down warily when seeing the Snowleopards. She smiled to all. "Bandit! It has been long since I have seen you, if at all." She looked to Night "You must be Night? Dark Star sent me for you and Kana, but I suppose it is for more that just us now. Where is Kana?" She inquired. She then yipped "Dark Star, myself and Nyscee have been succesfull with our hunt! We got two doe and two fawns. Dark Star did the most work though." She looked to everyone and stated, unsurely "I am not sure if there would be enough food for all, but I suppose you are welcome to come have a bite. It is a shame you showed up now Bandit, Dark Star will be sad that he missed you. Are you, and the kitten feeling okay?" She added 'the kitten' with the respect of the mother leopard, not wanting to do anything rude. She looked around for Kana with her bright green eyes.

Kana

Kana walked over hereing the news, "That's wonderfull!" She said happily, then she introduced her friend, "Everyone, this is Tri-Tundra, she is a dear friend of Dark Star and myself..." She then nodded, "yes, want you all come and have a bite to eat?"

Sivinith, Auna, Tolacca, Asplen, & Snowden

Now Sivinith was rather uncomfortable with the situation, as her lashing tail showed. "I don't even know you." she retorted to Tri-Tundra as she pulled Tolacca closer with her paw. She didn't say it, but she was made even more uneasy when Tri-Tundra mentioned how much Dark Star missed Bandit. To her, it almost was seen as some sort of threat to her adopted pup.

Auna was warming up to the stranger though, much unlike her mother. "Mmmmm, I'm hungry!"

Sivinith narrowed her eyes slightly, "You say there isn't enough for us probably, so there is no need for us to waste our time going."

Snowden frowned, "Aw, come on mom! We can visit with Dark Star and Kana! It'll be fun!"

Kana

Kana listend and finally spoke, "I can give you my word that you will be safe if you all come along" she said truthfully.

Bandit, Star, Night

Bandit yipped. "Please!" He asked hopefully and he had wagged his tail rapidly in greeting to Tri-Tundra.

Star gave Sivinith the pleading eyes but didnt say anything.

Night watched from beside Kana hopefully.

Tri-Tundra

She nodded with a look of concern. Then her eyes lit up. "I would understand you not wanting to come if one of your children, if not more than that weren't friends with wolves, but they are. And those children, some being wolves themselves, happen to trust Kana and Dark Star not only for their kindness, but for what they have done for them, and maybe even you. You would be present the whole time, why do you recoil?" Then she paused. "I am Tri-Tundra, but my snow-leopard name is *Artic Trust*. I had many friends among your kind at our homelands, and I swear that your cubs, and pups would be safe. If you still do not trust me, then I will leave while you eat." She spoke bodly, but kindly. Her word could be trusted, she had lived among the snow-leopards for at least 3 years. She would really enjoy to get to know Sivinith and the cubs though, for she was very interested in their beauty and agility.

Sivinith, Auna, Snowden, Tolacca, & Asplen

For being a mostly solitary huntress, besides when she had cubs to look after, this was a tense situation for her. Her cubs were her life and the urge to protect them was extremely strong and governed most of the decisions she made. But Tri-Tundra had a point; the wolves had helped her before and didn't attack her or kill her cubs while she was unconscious from the tranqs. And her cubs really wanted to go. Further egged on by Snowden and Auna, Sivinith gave in.

"Fine, we can go. But..." the leopard mother still wanted to set things straight, "I don't want any other wolves showing up unless I'm informed first; I don't like surprises."

Auna spun around in a circle, very excited and hyper, "Yipee! We get to go!"

Asplen stood anxiously beside Sivinith. Like her, he was still wary and unerved around alot of wolves and strangers.

Kana

She smiled and nodded, "I think there will only be my mate and Nycsee, but if any other's happen to arrive I will inform you immediately." She said with another smile.

Bandit, Star, Night

Night yipped excitedly from beside Kana wagging his tail.

Bandit wagged his tail rapidly. "Thanks!" He yipped to Sivinith.

Star also yipped a thanks and stood by Sivinith waiting to go.

Tri-Tundra

She nodded, "The only wolf there you will not know is Nyscee, and she won't mind leaving if you are not comfortable." She dipped her maw low in respect and turned toward packlands. "To Pyrola Fields!" She was thankful she had not angered the snowleopard mother, for she now realized the arogance of some of her words. She had not been with snowleopards for a long time, and forgot her respect. As the others ran ahead, she slowed to the back so she was only in hearing distance of Sivinith and spoke softly "I thank you for allowing your cubs to come. It is very peacefull, and I swear that nothing would pass into the terra without us killing it or scaring it away if need be. You and your cubs, as guests, will eat with the...umm...Alphas while me and Nyscee wait. Forgive me for my lack of respect earlier." She had paused, being used to calling Dark Star, Dark Star not Alpha. But in this case it was appropriate to use the ranks. She smiled picturing the look on Dark Star's face when everyone showed up and all of his friends were there. She loped slowly...

Kana

With a smile she started a loping towards Pyrola Fields. She kept looking back thought to make sure everyone was comeing...

Sivinith & Kittens

Sivinith was begining to have more trust in these particular wolves; but them only. Tri-Tundra's words further reasured her, and she was very pleased with her politeness now. Giving a thankful nod to her, Sivinith carefully picked Tolacca up and followed after the wolves. Auna and Snowden sprinted gleefully after, following Bandit and Star. Asplen hung with his mother.

Tri-Tundra

Tri-Tundra loped behind Sivinith, taking one look at the Back Yard and then running towards the packlands.

Bandit, Night, Star

The three yipped and followed out Bandit running a bit ahead with Star, Snowden, and Auna, and Night stayed near Kana and Tri-Tundra.
