Dusty & Fyre
Fyre came out from the den, pausing a moment to let his eyes adjust to the bright light. Laying near the den was his father, Dusty, quietly napping.
Grinning, Fyre snuck over to his slumbering father and grabbed his tail. Growing, he began to shake and worry over the furry apendage.
Jessie & Drac
Drac was quick to join the game. Bounding over to his larger brother, the youngster bit at the tail and tried his best to 'kill' it.
Jessie watched with amusement at the mouth of the den. She was glad they didn't choose her as their target.
Dusty & Fyre
Dusty lifted his head suddenly, but not because of nagging pain that tugged at his tail. A pack member was calling for help. "Jessie... I think it's time I met the pack. Someone is in trouble at the Prairie..." He said, listening to the howl. He stood up shaking the pups off quite easily, "You two play nice, alright? I'll be back soon." Nuzzling his mate and licking each of his pups, Dusty took off for the prairie.
Fyre growled angrily, spitting a bit of his father's fur from his mouth. "We'll be good." He said absently while eying Drac. With a broad grin, he pounce on his brother, trying to grab his ruff and wrestle him to the ground.
Nachi
The wolfess had been hiding further out, behind the den, watching the pair and their pups. She heard the howls and knew that the rest of the pack had gone off to resuce Nightcrawler. And now Dusty went to save Ageni. Perfect! Almost too perfect; a mother alone with her two pups, and the rest of the pack away.
Nachi waited a while, long after Dusty was gone before she came running towards the den, "Jessie! Your mate is in trouble! He requires your help right away! I will stay and watch your little ones, don't worry." She explained, her eyes filled with anxious worry.
Jessie & Drac
Drac yelped as his brother caught his scruff. He fought and struggled, but Fyre was too much for him, and soon had him pinned down, "Alright, I give! I give!" Drac whined, squirming.
Jessie narrowed her eyes slightly, "I don't know you... I can't trust you with my pups."
Nachi
Nachi dropped her tail and took a look of utter surprise, "You mean you haven't heard? Oh, no wonder you seem so suspicious! I am Athara, a new pack member. I was accepted several days ago." Nachi lied, though her voice and posture betrayed none of this. "I was appointed as pupsitter. But there is no time to explain; your mate is in great danger!"
Jessie & Drac
She relaxed a bit, beleiving in Nachi's words. "I'll be right back, then. Watch them closely; they're rambunctious." Jessie nuzzled each of her pups, then sprinted away to find her mate.
Drac continued to squirm about. "Hey, come on! Let up!"
Nachi
"Of course." Nachi vowed, lying through her teeth while looking perfectly honest and trustworthy. She had that motherly look to her. The moment Jessie was out of sight, Nachi approached the pups. "Listen now, little ones. We are going to play a game, alright? You," She nudged Fyre, "Will come with me while your brother goes to the den. We are going to play hide and seek, you see? And you will count for us, won't you?" She questioned, looking to Drac.
Fyre
He let go of his brother with a proud grin, "Ha ha, I beat you!" Then he looked up at Nachi, tail wagging about, "Sounds fun! You heard her, Drac, go hide!" He barked to his brother.
Poison Blade
Blade tortted into the den after warning the others about Ageni. He spotted Jesse and smiled then saw another female in the den that wans't apart of the pack. He pulled back his lips baring the tips of his ivory canines to a vicious snarl. His powerful jaws opened to speak and his coat on his large body brisk. "Get the hell away from here," he snapped bitterly. He jumped right in front of her seeing the dark look in her eyes. Kali had that look, and he knew it was nothing good. He glanced down at Fyre and Drac "Stay here," he ordered.
Nachi
She put her ears back and widened her eyes in mock confusion, "Oh, you've missunderstood the situation! Jessie asked me to watch her pups..." Nachi lied, drawing back slightly when Poison Blade jumped in front of her. She was not truely afriad, but she feigned it to look more believable. "I am a friend of her mate's, you see. You probably haven't met him yet, and I admit I'm not part of the pack... but Jessie asked if I would watch her pups for her. We're friends, you see."
Poison Blade
Blade listened to her go on. "Oh sing it to the birds and get the hell away. I don't care who you are, your not welcome here without permission from Nita or Eytan and their not here. If you were aloud they would have said something to me. Get out or regret it," he snapped again. He was getting more fustrated and soon would attack.
Nachi
Nachi forced herself to cringe lower, holding back a snide remark while still portraying an innocent, confused facade, "Jessie didn't have time to ask her alphas, it was an emergency! You can ask her yourself. Isn't that right, little ones?" She asked, looking to Drac and Fyre.
Poison Blade
Blade glared at her with a poisonous stare down to the bone which gave him his name. "Go," he growled baring his ivory canines. "I'm sick of your lies," he snarled and lunged for her. He wnated her to leave their territory and soon to be his. His muscles tightened and his powerful jaws departed to take old of her tightly. He would snag whatever he could reach, her muzzle, shoulder, or throat.
Nachi
Knowing he wasn't to be reasoned with, the sly wolfess took her leave with a side-spring, sending her narrowly past Blade's cunning jaws. "You're quick to judge; but that's males for you." She hissed back as she ran. She sent him one last look before racing out of site.
Poison Blade
Blade stood still watching her leave then turned to the two pups. "Are you guys alright?" he asked with a slight smile.
Fyre
He was confused by the whole thing, but quickly shrugged it off. He could smell that Poison Blade carried the pack scent like his mother did, unlike Nachi. "Yep, we're fine." The pup stated for the both of them, puffing out his chest to act cool. Then he looked up to Blade, his reddish eyes blazed with curiosity, "Mom said we could see the pack soon. Where is the pack at? You're one of the pack, right?"
Poison Blade
Blade smiled to the young pup lifting his head. "The pack is out helping a friend, and yes, I am one of the pack. I'm the second son of the alphas, Poison Blade," he spoke introducing himself.
