White Love and others
White nodded. ''Yes Im sure. Unless you would rather be a warrior and let Keenan take over when I retire. All he wants is power, he will be the one of my death and everyone in the pack. Him and Dark Flake. Dont worry, if your Beta he will be dropped to warrior. Keenan is nothing but his father only wanting power. If your Beta you can keep an eye on him and he wont be able to argue.'' she said more of a whisper to him so Keenan wouldnt hear. Once getting to the pack lands and in the clearing Key came up and welcomed them before seeing her injury. White silenced him with a wave of her tail before he could ask her. ''The bull hit me with its hoof, I am fine. Mag was already going to check it.'' she said. She glanced at Mag and gave him a wink. She knew what he was doing when he went towards her leg. Emma licked Key and looked at White then Keenan, her brother was on edge. Thats when Keenan lunged forward at White. White turned and dogded. She may have a hurt leg but she could fight with three. She ran towards him and lunged pinning him down. ''If you ever, ever, ever try to hurt me again I will let everyone of the pack hurt you til you are dead!! Dont do it again.'' she growled and snapped her jaws in his face. She turned to the rest of the pack before dragging to bull to the center. ''Everyone, this is to Magadan. Its a welcome and for killing the bull. You may eat first if you wish, or you can wait and let the rest eat first. I on the other paw, will be eating last either way.'' she said in her high voice. The others cheared all except Keenan and Dark Flake. White caught their eyes and held it. All the chearing was lost in her ears as she stared at them, Emma brought her back with a nudge.
Lucey
Among the tree branches was a Peregrine Falcon, a female by the name of Lucey to be exact. Sharp night colored soul gates watched the wolves below her, her excellent hearing not missing a thing that the beasts did. Such stupid creatures, at least her wolf friends were smarter than the ones she was watching at the moment. Such choas below, as a brute attaked the female alphess.Oh her friend would have killed a wolf for doing something so ignorant. The stupid bitch only threanted him, and then acted what she must have thought was honorably by declaring she would eat last. Alphas always ate first, it was a sign of respect from the members and to show their dominance. Perhaps that was why she had members challenging her. She should not be a ruler and very soon she might not be. While most of the other wolves cheered below, she laughed out loud, her amusement plain to see. How she longed to rake her claws across that female's face. She was not worthy to lead a pack, Lucey had saw much better. Still watching them with hopes of seeing more amusing things, she lifted a foot to clean it before placing it down again.
Magadan
By the time they'd gotten the bull dragged back into the heart of their territory, Magadan was panting heavily and feeling the tightness in his muscles for the strenuous work. And yet, he felt great... exhilarated, even! He'd found a new home, and new family, and had not only proved his worth to them by taking a leading role int he hunt, but his actions had gotten him a promotion to beta. The white brute was brimming with pride, though he kept it tempered and quiet, so as not to come across as brash and full of himself. "It's a very gracious offer, White. But I think I may wait for a while, until I get to know the pack better." As much as he wanted to take the position, he was a bit leery of doing so right away, and so he declined it. Magadan would have been content to remain a warrior for a while, and planned on doing just that - up until Keenan suddenly assaulted White Love. The silver-faced brute was just returning a wink to White when Keenan struck, and was subsequently put down by the alphess. It was at this point that Mag changed his mind and boldly raised his tail high in the air, holding it at a position to declare himself beta. Hackles bristled over his 130-pound body, Mag stalked forward and snarled deeply at Keenan and Dark, "You'd do well to heed her warning, Keenan." He was so caught up in asserting his authority and intimidating the two trouble-makers that he never noticed the falcon above them. After a moment or two of holding his posture, Mag eventually relaxed and turned to the rest of the pack, after White had addressed them, "Go ahead, there is plenty for everyone to get their fill." Like the alpha, he was forgoing the right to eat first, as a gesture of goodwill to his new family. Besides, he had something else in mind to take care of, and sat down beside White Love. "Has he always been like this? Keenan, I mean?" Mag lowered his muzzle to sniff at her leg, then began to gentle lick at it to clear away the blood. He could see the way she'd stared at Keenan before Emma snapped her out of it, and that, along with the recent attack, had him worried.
White Love & others.
White glared at Keenan once more before looking at Mag, ''Not always, when he was a pup his father was alpha of the pack, when his father was killed Keenan became grief stricken that VeLox, his father, was murdered. He looked to me for comfort, but I wouldnt give him any. Then he longed for power, I knew he liked me but I just couldnt like him back, he seeks revenge for my mother killing his father. Keenan is out to do anything to try and turn the pack against me. Ive been leader a long while. When we were pups and his father was killed my mother had taken over the pack. Then when I was old enough to take over she let me have the pack. Emma, Keenan's sister, had disappeared when she was a pup then came back when I became leader. Ever since then, Keenan has been seeking power and revenge. If he continues, I might just kill him.'' She said looking at Mag. Something had crossed her mind when she did. ''What you did back there with Keenan, were you declaring your power of Beta?'' Yes, she had seen him raise his tail in the position of Beta but wasnt sure if he was accepting the position. White winced slightly when Mag gently licked her wound to clear the blood. She looked over at Emma who was tearing into the flesh of the bull first. Emma was White's most trust worthy warrior. Emma brought both of them chunks of meat. White nodded to her and Emma backed away. The other settled to eat their share as White waited for his answer.
Magadan
The young male lifted his muzzle to give White his full attention. Perked ears edged back slightly at the story she told, reflecting pity in Magadan for the tragedy of Keenan's path and White's struggle to maintain her pack against his attempts at dismantling it. "He's had a rough time, it sounds like." Mag's thoughts turned briefly to his own father, and anger churned in his gut to think of the night that Starscream had usurped him and cast him from the pack. It had been the reason why Magadan had left the Aspen Grove, though he at least still had his father, where Keenan did not. "But... that gives him no right to harass you, for something your mother did." Bad as he felt about Keenan, now that he understood more of what drove the other male, Magadan had to side with his alphess, and nodded grimly to her resolution to kill him, if necessary. "If it comes down to that, I'll do whatever I can to help you." The idea of killing another wolf made him feel a little uneasy, but he shrugged that off and went back to tending to White's wound. When she questioned him next, a small smile brought up the edge of his lip, "I wasn't planning on it, but... yes." Magadan again turned his ministrations to the alpha's wound, going more gently when he felt her wince. By the time he'd cleaned most of the blood away, Emma had brought them over each a chunk of meet, and he nodded in thanks to the other.
White Love
White smiled. ''Glad to have you part of the family. As Alphess, I am honored for such a loyal and trustworthy brute at my side as beta.'' Smiling, White was not one to question after the answer. She looked a her wound as most of the blood was cleaned away. She tried getting to her paws. Pulling herself to her paws she looked at Mag with shimmering eyes. Then turning to the big rock. She limped over to it, afraid to put any weight on her wound. Climbing up she howled to get every ones' attention. Once she had it she let her eyes wonder over her pack. ''I think its time we made some changes here. So far, I have made my mind up about who will be what rank in my pack. Keenan you are lowered to Omega. Magadan will take your spot as Beta. The rest, I will let you know if you want to come to me and find out. Thats all! Dismissed!'' She carefully jumped from the big rock as others tried to come to see her. Keenan was first ''White, why am I lowered so low! I dont deserve Omega!'' He tried frantically to get at White. She ignored him and looked at Magadan.
