Twilight Beauty, Lion, Outcast, & Tersek

For a while, Twilight had once more secluded herself from the others, following the rescue mission at the Wolf Center. Now it was time for bonding, or at least proving her worth to the pack. Finding a prominant hill in the dense stand of pines, the mother howled to call attention to the other mothers.

Around her, Lion, Outcast, and Tersek engaged in a game of wrestling. And as usually, Lion was easily subdued by the double-teaming Tersek and Outcast.

Twilight Beauty, Lion, Outcast, & Tersek

Twilight waited for a while, but it seemd that the other mothers were busy or not around. "Lets head out now. Remember to be quite, and don't screw around too much." She laughed a bit, but as her eyes went over each of her pups, there was a serious look to them. After one last look around, the mother trotted off to hunt.

Tersek followed closely after his mother, trying to mimick her every move. Every once in a while, he'd glance back to make sure Lion was well behind him. Ah, the dominance struggle.

Lion would ignore his brother's looks, and lower his ears and tail when ever he happened to meet eyes with the larger bully. He was not a weakling by any means. He just desired to avoid conflict where it was not neccessary; and since his brother was a good deal larger and stronger than him, Lion knew what the outcomes of a fight would be anyway. No need to humiliate himself.

Outcast traveled near Tersek some of the time, or trailed off here or there to investigate things.

Silver Trace

The silver huntress watched as the others moved out to go hunt. She follows behind, trying not to get lost.

Ireshk

The adolescent came padding along, eyes alert and ears up when he came across Silver Trace. Trying to keep hidden from Twilight, he crept closer to Silver until he was within earshot, "Pssst! Over here!" He whispered, trying to catch her attention, and her attention alone. His posture seemed very secerative and urgent, but not at all threatening or hostile.

Silver Trace

Silver head swung around as she stared around to the brute. "Who are you?" She whispered softly, haulting herself and letting the others go on without her. Her fur bristled softly but her tail gave a few friendly wags of her age.

Ireshk

Ireshk wagged his tail as well, trying to be as inviting as he could possibly be while still portraying a certain intentness, "I'm Ireshk, and I'm here to help you..." He began, strugling to come up with something that would get this younger fae to come with him. As far as he knew, her life depended on following him, and he wasn't going to stop until he did all he could to convince her. "All the pups, including yourself, are in great danger! Please, you have to come with me, so I can take you somewhere safe! My mom will save the rest of your brothers and sisters, and your friends." He added, his words sincere because he spoke what he believed to be the utter truth. The adolescent took a step back, half-turning. Then he stopped to see if Silver would follow him or not.

Silver Trace

The pup trembled and turned to follow Ireshk. "Danger!? Where!?" She whimpered and held close to him. Fear in her eyes for she was still young, and very unready to die.

Ireshk

His ear swiveled as he caught the sound of a howl; an adult's howl. "It is very close; please, trust me!" Ireshk replied, his eyes pleading, "You'll be safe with me, I promise. There are wolves... they want to harm you." He took another step back, his form almost hidden completely in the brush now, hoping she'd begin to follow, "Please, hurry!" Ireshk himself was growing more frightened now, wondering when and where these killer parents would attack, as he had been told they would. He just wanted to get Silver Trace out of here and to the safety of the boarder where he was ordered to bring her. Hoping that she believed him, he turned around completely and began to hurry for the No Wolf Zone to the south.

Silver Trace

She hurried behind him. looking back once or twice but leaving her life with him. She too passed the boarder.
