Misericordia
Slowly, cautiously she sniffed the air, the scent of life overwhelming her. This was a different place altogether compared to the lands the she wolf had wandered before. Always slightly nervous and full of excited apprehension she edged forward this was a new start for her, a good one at least she hoped it would be. The sun was slowly dying , hiding behind the sun kissed hills. As the night began to prevail she settled down beneath the reaching branches of a tree never quite asleep, she was still unsure of what lurked in the shadows of the night.
Moon Spirit
A slight smile played at her lips as she trotted over to the lone fae. In her low wind voice she said "If you want you can reside in my land. I live at the sedge creek territory. Dont worry. We have many allies. They wont hurt you"
Misericordia
The she wolf stared silently, quivering, as she looked up at the silhouetted figure in front of her. It had been so long since she had come into contact or even heard another wolf. Should she walk away and pretend she was still all alone? No! She couldn't continue this sorrowful solitude. It was time to face the world. And so fighting down the memories of her past she stepped forward into the cool milkiness of the moon.
"B-But who are you?"
Moon Spirit
She thought a moment before saying softly "I am Moon Spirit. Alpha female of the Sedge Creek territroy. My sister is Aaka. Alpha female of the Silver Glades. And you are?" she was so quiet. Always the calm one. So serene
Misericordia
There was a soft wind blowing, whispering through the darkened trees that loomed above the wolves.
"I-I am Misericordia", she was about to say something more but suddenly fear raced through her body grasping her words and hurtling them into oblivion "If I do come with you..." She stopped again "How far is this place you speak of?"
Moon Spirit
She smiled at the wind and normally would have howled. But this wind meant two things. One a storm was coming. Two it was her sisters call. She tensed and said softly "Not two far. Be careful if you do come. Aaka may not be pleased at the moment." as if something special had been said the wind picked up and a howl filled with betrayal and anguish pierced the air. Moon Spirit muttered under her breath and said softly "To late."
My shadows the only one who walks beside me
Aaka stalked towards them her head down yellow eyes glowing. She cocked her head at Misericordia. She smiled a cold cruel smile. Aaka may not be well known. But those who did know her wished she was on her side. She had one alliance and that was with the shadow lurkers pack. She loved the name. Smirking she stalked near her sister standing close. One glance they could pass for the same wolf. Another longer look and you would see that one was warm while the other cold. Bitter,. Angry. Hating.
Misericordia
Misericordia looked across at Moon Spirit, begging silently for reassurance. She cowered as she glanced at Aaka . How did she come here...what did she want? She was transfixed by this wolf, curious, and yet frightened. So frightened. The she wolf wanted so badly to be accepted after a life of lies, deceit, running away from fears unknown and misery she didn't no if she could take any more of this loneliness. Gathering up all her courage she stepped forward, though her body language was still submissive. She tried to forget Aaka's presence and once again turned to face Moon Spirit, "I would like to go with you, to Sedge creek territory "
Moon Spirit
She smiled before saying "Alright then. Lets go. Do you mind if I call you Miseri?"
Alone in the Shadows a Wolf stalks
Aaka smirked even broader now as she walked stiff leggedly towards Misericordia. "Arent you going to introduce me Moon?" she saw the cold look her sister shot her and Aaka could have laughed. "Misericordia this is my sister Aaka. Be warned she bites. Dont be fooled by her looks. If she says that shes me watch the eyes. Thats the easiest way to tell" Aaka put on a fake look of hurt as she said "How oculd you say such harsh things about your sister?" "Because theyre true. Come on Misericordia. Lets go home"
Misericordia
The hope for a new future; one where she would be accepted was almost within her grasp. She hadn't felt this feeling for so long, and despite the presence of Aaka, who did more than just make Misericordia anxious, the she wolf could not let Aaka ruin her chances of this new life.After everything before, she had come to far.Hadn't she? " Of course you may call me Miseri," there was a growing hint of excitement in her voice as she spoke to Moon Spirit. Then after risking a fleeting glance at Aaka she walked to Moon spirit's side. "Thank you" The wind had settled now, and the moon looked more glorious then ever, yet, despite all her efforts to ignore Aaka's presence, something with in her body continued to tell her: '
"who else will be at Sedge creek territory?"
Moon Spirit
Moon Spirit could tell that Miseri was tensee around Aaka and she said softly "There is no need to be afraid of Aaka. She wont hurt you. Not unless you threaten her or get on her nerves." she grinned and in spite of herself grinned. Aaka could be a loose cannon but she loved pups.
Shadows of Anguish
Aaka smirked as she heard this and strode up beside Misri "Yeah I dont bite. Hard." she chuckled a bit before answering the question "Twighlight Reighn, Azul who is Moon Spirits mate, maybe Hunted, there are others are on occasion but they arent normally there....."
Misericordia
Misericordia whirled round to face Aaka. "A.. ah okay" She was still nervous but thanks to Moon Spirit's words of reassurance she surprised her self by feeling calmer.Her steps were less tense and as she moved through the darkened grass, the wind whispered quietly, secretly. Then glancing either side of her she asked "Are we nearly there? Will the others like me? I'm sorry for all the questions, I hope you don't mind me asking so many." As she waited for an answer, her concentration fell upon the path ahead, where exactly would it lead?
Moon Spirit
Moon Spirit smiled gently and said "Almost. They will like you Miseri. My mate is quite easy going. Twighlight is submitting to everyone so hes not a problem. Others will drop by including a cougar and lynx but dont judge them.....theyre cool."
Aaka snorted when she spoke of Twighlight "Subbmitting? I nearly killed him. It was to easy. He needs to learn how to fight back. Otherwise hes not allowed to come over. Especially since Legosa lives there now." Aaka laughed and said "Almost there. Just up a bit....." she stopped and the wind picked up. With all the snow around her she looked invisible if it werent for her bright yellow haunted eyes. She smiled and said "Winds of Darkness"
Misericordia
The she wolf was glad she had met Moon Spirit, even meeting Aaka was not all bad. The mention of a cougar made her slightly nervous once again. In the past she had had a bad experience with one. She shook her head quickly, ridding her self of that memory. Misericordia could feel they were near her new home, new company as her excitement increased she sprung ahead. Then she stopped, turned and asked "Who is Legosa?"
Moon Spirit
Moon Sprirt growled. "Legosa is the one who tried to kill Twighlight which is why I dont understand why my sister is allowing him to stay there." she was glad she had met Misericordia. Now she had another member to her pack. Now she could have a family.......
Misericordia
As the wind began to sing to the skies now blackened to complete darkness Misericordia felt a shiver down her spine "I'll admit i'm nervous about meeting the others but will i be meeting Legosa as well? Its just i really do want to fit in with everyone and i don't want to get on the bad side of anybody, I hope i'm not rambling on, i have a tendancy to do that,I speak foolishly, I'm sorry." The she wolf looked towards Moon Spirit and although there was excitement building up with in her, there was also a hint of sadness in her eyes a long, always present sorrow with in her mind.
Moon Spirit
She smiled softly and said in a low wind voice "No. Legosa is not allowed in my packlands." she laughed harshly and continued on nearing the packlands
Misericordia
Misericordia sniffed the cool night air, slightly relieved. There was a strange scent upon the air, but she felt it was some what welcoming. The she wolf could see something in the distance, she looked to Moon Spirit, a glint of hope in her eye "What is that?"
Moon Spirit
She just sighed and led Miseri on. "Who knows? Im not looking forwardto much right now. Aakas friend was just caught by a trap. Havent seen him since. Come on. We are only a tree away" she was literally telling the truth. She leaped forward darting past a tree and into the forest towards her territory.
Misericordia
Misericordia looked at moon spirit, slight doubt in her eye and then infront of her. She held her breath. This was it. This was the end to her old life, the perils of the past and the beginning of another chance, she wouldn't mess this one up. Then with out warning the wind picked up once again as fierce as ever, and as it did this Misericordia lept ahead, lost in her own world as blurred images darted past her.
