Jais & Railu

Jais finds a mossy stick and picks it up, shakes it, and snarls as loud as he can. He then drops it, backs off, and pounces upon it, snarling and worrying it again. Railu pads over, seeing what his brother was doing. Jais took the stick and dashed off with it, grinning a wolf grin. Railu takes off after him, yipping.

After a few minutes, Railu slows and sits down, panting hard. After catching his breath, the dark pup howls in frustration at not being able to catch his brother. Jais comes bounding over to him, stick still clentched tightly in his jaws. Moss freckles his muzzle and whiskers. He gets closer to Railu, and the dark pup presses his muzzle forward and takes one end of the stick in his own jaws and tugs back, snarling and growling. Soon, they start a game of tug-and-war; with Jais doing the best.

Thunder's Call

The large grizzly suanters up a few dozen yards from the pups, holding the fore-leg of mule deer in his jaws. He watches the pups play, having some curiousity in them. He steps a bit closer, glances around to see if the adults were near, then drops the meat. He didn't want the adults after him, so he was ready to retreat. But he wanted to offer the pups food, to see what they did.

Jais & Railu

Railu released the stick, causing Jais to stumble back. Railu watched the bear with large, frightened eyes. But his sharp ears were pricked forward. Jais dropped the mossy stick, and lowered his maw to the ground, then began to stalk forward. He had never remembered seeing a creature like this before! He had little idea of how powerful they were. But he could pick up his pack's scent on him, so figured it was alright to get closer. Jais nips Thunder's Call on his paw, then scurries backward, seeing what he will do.

Thunder's Call

He gives a rumble, but restrains humself from swatting at the pup, which would surely kill him. He wasn't used to being around little pups or cubs, so he didn't know how to react. Thunder's Call hastily backs off, rumbling slightly until he is many yards from the pups.

Wind Caller

She bounds over and snarls at Thunder Call, she knew he ment good but still....

Thunder's Call

The grizzly snorts and backs off another few yards, but keeps an eye on the she-wolf. He hadn't seen her before, yet she must belong to the pack. Thunder's Call hesitates, then decides to leave the area; he didn't want the rest of the pack after him as well, for he may loose his alliance with them. The grizzly lumbers off to Pike's Lake.

Jais & Railu

When Thunder's Call rumbles, the fur along Railu's back comes up, and he snarls, his eyes gleam back at the bear. The old pup stands up and draws his sharp ears forward.

Jais springs away, ears back. Though he's never heard the rumble, he knew instinctively that it was a warning. Jais was glad when Wind Caller came, and the bear left. The growing pup yips happily, racing around the she-wolf until Railu tackles him, and they begin to battle.

Railu starts off winning, but ends whimpering, then yelping with pain. Jais eventually backs off, looking at his brother expectantly; wanting him to play more. But Railu lies down, head on fore-paws. He was tired. Jais walked over to the mossy stick they were playing with earlier and pounces on it, then racing around with it.

Wind Caller

She looks worriedly at Railu. She lies down next to him and licks him. "Are you ok?" she whimpers. She looks over at Jais and the direction Thunders Call left. She yips to Jais, "Jais, are you ok too?" she yips.

Jais & Railu

Railu thumps his tail aginst the ground, but casts his eyes down. "I'm alright," the juvenile replies in a small voice, "thanks for saving us! What was that, anyway?" His ember eyes come up again to look curiously at Wind Caller.

Jais turns his head around, tail waving, "I'm alright!" He continues to play with the stick, but eventually gets bored and drops it. The growing pup wander around, sticking his muzzle into the light snow while trying to find something of interset.

Wind Caller

She nods, "That you two was a bear. Be careful around them, Thunders Call could have killed you. Next time don't get so close, he held back on killing you Jais. For many its hard because its instinct." she smiles and stands up. She walks over to the meat Thunders Call had droped. She takes a bite then stops. She lies back down by the two and rests her head, she should leave the meat for the others.

Jais & Railu

They listened with interest, yet also learned about fear. Jais was keenly interested in these things called bears now, but he did heed the warning from Wind Caller, and figured it was best to leave them be. Railu pulled himself up to a sitting position and shifted his ears to catch the voice of a new wolf in the terra.

Jais bounded over to the meat once Wind Caller had lied down, and tore off a peice of it. He ate a bit, then wandered over to a higer mound of earth where the snow didn't cover it so deep, and sat down. He was begining to get sleepy after all the play.

Wind Caller

She smiles but then catches the scent of a new creature present on the terrain and her auds perk up listening for any sound. She gets back up and sniffs the air, the scent puzzled her it wasn't Quamia that was for sure, nor Thunders Call. She nudges Railu to his brother and stands right next to them sniffing intently. She follows the scent but doesn't go far it could be another wolf from another pack. She bounds back to the pups and her lips quiver, her deadly white fangs showing from under. "Stay near" she barks urgently to the pups, "and be on the lookout"

Jais & Railu

Their bluish eyes dart about the terra, and their sharp ears stand alert for any noise. But they still needed to distinguish their pack's scent from outsiders. The fur along Railu's spine draws up slightly in response to seeing Wind Caller's alarm. There might be a danger near.

Jais stays very still, and a low rumble escapes his clenched jaws. He could sense the alarm from the she-wolf as well.

Wind Caller

She throws her head back and howls to Quamia, wondering if she too had caught the new wolfs scent.

Paradise

Vix pads up to young ones who are playing quite loudly near the bushes ... Hello, I be Paradise ... Don't fear Jais & Railu , how old r you guy cause you are a quite adorable bunch ... Circles the pups then smiles her lips curl , then she walks back over to the tree where she was talking to the friendly vix that welcomed her... Oh yah She barked to the pups start heading ovr to shelter becuase we can smell a blizzard coming ....

Jais & Railu

Railu tenses slightly, for he didn't know Paradise. He glances up at Wind Caller wearily, seeing if she knew this wolf. Jais waived his tail slightly, with friendlyness but also alertness. "We are getting close to a year...." he was careful with his words, first trying to figure out who this new wolf was. She caried the faint scent of Quamia, but he couldn't be sure if it was from Paradise, or Quamia was close. He also was unsure of the word 'blizzard'.

A strong wind shook the boughs of trees, and the trunks creaked as they swayed. The wind was cold, and cut easily through the pup's thinner fur. Railu shivered and crouched down slightly.

Paradise

Paradise shakes her head , oh no Quamia let me join 4 now ...A blizzard ia a snow storm ...Well do you guys want to start heading towards Silver Stream Den ??? It is getting chilly , Brrr her teeth chatter between her words .

Quamia

Quamia soon apeared through the blinding white winds, her ears were pressed tight to her head, as they did no use to her up; the winds were too strong to pick up much sound. "We need to go to the rendezvous site! Both dens are too small for Jais and Railu now. The rendezvous site is low-lying, so the wind won't be so harsh there." she tries to talk about the howling of the wind, and her tail is held low and ridged to help keep it from being thrashed by the wind. The small wolf heads off for the rendezvous site.
