Eytan

Bruja neared the den, having come ahead to ensure that it was safe for his mate here. She had warned him of the cougars, but he still pulle dback a little in surprise as he peered around the edge of the mouth and saw them. Two adults, three cubs. Gosh, they were huge. Dusty tan eyse got large and round as he looked at them, but he neither trembled nor fled. He held his ground, waiting for his mate.

Nita

Nita padded to the cougars den. she knew they wouldn't mind. Her audits were arect in alert for anything. She was so teird after such a long day. The pups followed her closely behind. Only Miakoda to trail behind distracted by all that was around her. "Hello, Eytan. I'm needed at a fight" she said her breath weary. She smiled to him, her orbs glowing wonderously.

Eytan

He came forward, relived to see her. He nuzzled her, and looked down to nuzzle the pups. At her words, his brow furrowed in worry. "A fight? So soon after birthing pups? Think you that wise?" He wasn't really quesitoning her wisdom, only he was worried for his love. He nuzzled her again, not really noticing when Gavan hopped up, looking for attention. He met her eyes, and waited.

Nita

'i must" Nita said, still feeling teird and week.

Eytan

He whimpered quietly in worry and nuzzled his mate, licking her maw. "You are not yet strong again. Tell me where this fight is. Let me go in your stead. Stay and regather your forces." And his eyes pleaded with her. He wanted the pups to have a mother, and if she went to fight not at full strength... he shook his head, banishing the pictures in his mind.

Nita

"oh how would love too but it might be best for me. I suppose so. I'll join you as soon as I can with Maka and leave the pups to Kitchi and Yiska." she said softly.

Eytan

He smiled, relieved. He nuzzled his love and said, "Join me when you can. Rest for now. Where is this fight?"

Nita

Nita sat down still breathing heavy. She looked up at him and licked his cheek. 'Vary well, the alphas fight is at the bog, the beta's fight is at Breve ridges and the war zone were I'm, we are needed is at The ruins go and help them. Help, Exodus, Catori, Wahkan, Nodin, Takhi, and yanto. The others are at Ruby Valley, but your forbidden to be there. So go to the ruins.

Eytan

He smiled, and licked her cheek, and bent to nuzzle the young ones. "I go, then. I will fight. Care for our little ones." And he nuzzled her a last time, and left for the Ruins.
