Aaka thought of something. She whispered to Death and then turned back. She had been told not to touch Mitya. But Death or Saquoia could. They hadnt been told. Aaka smirked. "Well if our fate is waiting attack me. Go on. I dare you." Aaka was going for Legosa. Death would go for Mitya more than likely. Saquioa one of the others. She growled but kept her head in the middle. She didnt want to be attacked unexpectedly.

Mitya*Azja*Anzac*Islay*Akela*Ikwa*Forbidden*Tsarr*Tyrone*Domanic

Tsarr, Tyrone, Forbidden and Ikwa advanced on Death, circling him, making it so he was surounded by them.

Azja, Anzac and Islay advanced on Saquioa, also surrounding her.

Mitya stepped forwards to Aaka. "Lets finish this now." She snarled.

Aaka howled once more. She called Storm Warning and Moon Spirit. She knew they would come in handy. Plus Spirit had yet to come. Yersinias sister may even come. Although she doubted it.

Moon Spirit heard Aakas call. She came at a quick lope. She heard Storm Warning behind her. Whhen they arrived at the ruins it didnt take long to figure out what was going on. Moon growled fiercly and headed towards where Death was being surrounded. Storm went to where Saquioa was being attacked. He would let Aaka go for Legosa. He could tell that was who she wanted. He knew that one of her friends would be coming. He would let her get Mitya.

Aaka growled. "Not yet." she said slyly. She wouldnt let them attack yet. Not yet

Brute walked in from behind where this Aaka was standing. A loud bark was directed towards her. "Fight now or not at all foolish ones. I'm Blade, and this is Night Flyer...for those who do not know us." He retorted. As Blade looked down an eagle landed on his front flank, Night Flyer.

Soon beside him appeard another brute, Rigged Edge, his species unknown, he had the swiftness of a fox, agility or a wolf, but body of a cougar. Baring upon his side, his companion, Couger. The large male couger stepped upon the lands, he was bigger than the wolfes. Edge waited for Blade to finish then he opened his own maw. "Names, Rigged Edge. And this is Couger." He retorted, a sly grin played upon his maw. Couger opened his maw to emit a roar the echoed above them.

Death's Angel appeared next also with a compainion, another eagle, Winter Wing. Orbs stared down at them, awaiting a fight. Winter Wing lifted hisself from her flank and rose into the air, he let out his call, as he hovered above them. "And I Death's Angel, my companion, Winter Wing." She stated.

Then finally last but no least the young Maverick, she did have a companion, but was not old enough to have a eagle, another year must pass first. Hers was a raven, Ebony Escape. Ebony Escape let out his annoying sheer cry as he landed on the ground. Maverick pounced on him then looked up at Angel's Death, and stood up, she started down at them also. Playfully Maverick began to introduce herself and the reven. "I'm Maverick, and this one is Ebony Escape." She yipped playfully. Ebony rose and hit her on the head with his beak to remind her this was not a time to make friends.

He was impressed by the new allies that showed up although undoubtedly a bit on edge about the presence of a cougar. He had known them only as enemies in the past; but here seemed an exception. With the backing of so many, Legosa felt it was time to get things started. Without any warning, the huge brute launched his body forward and gnashed his jaws at Aaka only inches from her mug, not making contact.

Mitya stood were she was, a sharp glance was given upwards to the allies that came from above. Auds perked as the cry from the Eagle was heard, show time. She lundged after Legosa, jumping over him aiming to bit down on Aaka's back.
After Mitya went forwards Domanic ran forwards, he ran over to Aaka's paw that was already hurt, he opened his fangs aiming for it, hoping to grasp hold.

At the sound of the Eagle Islay and Anzac both launched their bodice's on Saquioa biting anything their could. Islay went for the side of her neck, Anzac for one of her legs.

Tyrone, Ikwa, and Forbidden all jumped on Death, Tyrone went for his underthroat, Ikwa for his spin, and Forbidden for his legs.

Tsarr watched the new comers, also a bit sceptical of the couger, he new it could kill any wolf here easily, it was a full grown male, they could curhs a wolf only using its weight.

.suddenly out of the brush leapt a white wolf, her own fangs bared she hit the wolf attacking aaka hard, rolling him over. she snarled angrily, then leapt, slashing at his shoulder...she spun about, then turned on mitya, her fangs slashing at her shoulder then rump as aleu nimbly dashed in and out, never in the same spot twice.

.a slender shadow in the woods suddenly emerged. it was alayna, a female cougar whom aleu had befriended. she glanced about, her green cat eyes narrowing as they rested on the other feline like herself. a low hiss then snarl left her vocals as she watched, her muscles taunt, ready to leap...

Legosa was close to Mitya so he lunged at Aleu as she tried to attack her. Snarling a deafening tone about the comotion, the large white brute snapped his raving fangs at Aleu's face and neck. Even for his size, he was very quick on his feet and well atuned to react swiftly in fights.

Aaka saw them coming and leaped. She saw Aleu coming. And Legosa trying to attack her. Aaka leaped again and went for Legosa. She owuld kill him. She slashed and leaped away.

Saquia had Storm Warning by her side. She attacked the closest one. She would rip and kill. Storm rushed in and attacked another. How dare they even think of attacking his friends?

Death saw them coming. He let them come. It was one of his tactics. Let them come to you. He then thrust his large body at one. It would be enough to throw. He then saw Aaka go for Legosa. He smiled he had been right.

Night Flyer and Winter Wing took flight together, eagels sored above them. At once they drove tallons first, one and then the other towards the fae couger. Ebony fly up and came down trying to hit the couger in the rump with his break, tormenting it, getting its attention. All three flew up before getting caught by it, every time they dove at it, always different spots.

Couger watched as his allies dove down at other that was similer to him. A fea, one he could make a make...maybe...but right now he couldn't think it, a job he had was to be done first. Orbs narrowed in on her, challangeing her to come and get him.

Rigged Edge spotted Aleu. At once he launched his massive bodice towards her, trying to grab onto her spine to dig deep with his fangs.

Death's Angel stood beside Blade as he watched them fight, he knew aleady who would win, some maybe lost but that was the price to be payed.

Aaka saw that aleu would need help. This fight wasnt fair. She needed more. But she could handle this for a short time. Aaka stopped goig for Legosa. She leaped in the air and went to help Aleu. She rammed into Rigged Edge. He was bigger than her but she was pure muscle. She would kill easy. She ripped into Rigged Edges hide then sprung away. She had so many things that needed to be done. She saw Blaze and Death Angel standing. At least they werent in it. Yet. Aaka hurled her body at Legosa once more. She was getting attacked by enimies on all sides. She could still escape.

He felt the pain of Aaka's fangs as he attacked Aleu. Not waiting to see what damage he did to Aleu, Legosa went after Aaka and braced himself when she hurled herself at him. Being so large, he could stand up to the collision as he met her with his fangs ripping at whatever they could on the wolfess.

Aaka didnt make Legosa move when she hit him. She ripped at his flesh. She than sprang away only a few feet and kept her head down but her spine still wasnt exposed. She growled at Legosa. "You want me? Come and get me."

He wasn't one to just throw caution to the wind, but his ego was easily stirred. He growled as her fangs scored a wound, but it was nothing serious. "This was a foolish fight for you to start, but I'm more than thrilled to end if for you." he spoke out in a leering tone as he made a quick yet steady rush for her. His head and body were lowered and his tail was down and out. Before he reached her, Legosa jumped to the side and tried to deliver a deep bite to her flank.

Aaka saw him coming and moved slightly but not enough. he gave her quite a slash on the leg. Aaka leaped at him filled with anger. She went for his spine. Or his shoulder. Oranything she could latch onto.

When Aaka leaped for Legosa she turned around and launched her own bodice at her. Mitya's fangs bared aiming for th back of her neck.

As Akela rushed Saquoia, she caught her muzzle. She whimmpered with pain, then began to growl, trying to pull away as her hind claws dug into the groumd. Azja saw this other approach, he dropped his attention for this fae then onto the brute. He lept over them, blocking him from advancing on this fight.

When Death launched his bodice, Tsarr opened his maw fangs bared he went full force into the brute, his teath aiming for anything he could hit. Forbidden jumped out, only to jump back in and try to bit his hind legs. He would dive in try for a leg if he didnt get it back off and try again, if he did he bit down hard on the veins and bone, he would hvae gotten the thin bone between his teath and bit down hard, lmost crushing it.

Aaka saw Mitya come. She couldnt allow that so she barked. It was quiet yet she knew that the ones hiding would here it.

Saquioa wouldnt let go of Akela. So she slashed with her claws. It was catlike but effective.

Storm growled at Azja. "Come on. You know you want to kill me. Come on. dont be such a wimp."

Death also slashed and ripped at Tsarr. He then sprung away from the two ofthem. "Moon het Forbidden. I will get this one." He once again leaped at Tsarr. What had Aaka gotten them into?

Moon launched into the air and landed in front of Forbidden. She looked at him. He would make a good mate....No dont think of that now. Fight to kill kill to fight. She stay where she was letting Forbidden make the first move.

Sasha ran out of the trees and rammed into Mitya before she could reach Aaka. "Dont you ever do that again understood?" She then jumped and slashed at Mitya tearing at anything she oculd get. Her pitbull blood was starting to kick in.

The second Aaka's attention turned on Mitya, Legosa struck like lightning. His great jaws went straight for the coveted neck of Aaka.

Aaka turned her attention to Legosa once more. She covered her nack and opened her kaws. She then slashed at Legosa. She wouldnt kill him. Yet.

Sasha fought off Mitya making her back away from Legosa and Aaka

He took the punishment from her jaws and snapped madly at her muzzle and face, seeking a place to sink in his fangs and make a good grip. But always his jaws were slightly lowered and his body tense to protect his neck.

Aaka stopped biting Legosa and hit the ground. She then leaped up and went for his unprtected belly.

He sprung to the side as a chuck of reddish fur was torn from his stomach, showing where her fangs made their contact. Snarling suddenly to the new pain in his soft underbelly, Legosa hunched down low to protect himself from more injury there. His fangs sought out a hold on the side of Aaka's neck or face once more.

Aaka barked once more calling body. The dog was normally friendly but he was a fierce fighter. Aka got up fast and sprung to the side and slashed at Legosas Side. She would get him wherever she felt now.

Buddy heard Aakas bark and cam charging. He rammed into Legosa then turned and stood a distance off.

Legosa moved away just in time to avoid any damage from Aaka's last attack. But with so many canines and more around, it was impossible to keep track of everyone. He didn't know Buddy was coming until the moment he rammed him. A sharp growl escaped his throat as Legosa fell to the side, tucking his head down instinctively so it would be safe from attack. His large paws had hardly left the ground before they were back under him and he picked himself up. "Double-teaming, huh? I'm I too much to handle by yourself?" he taunted Aaka, but kept an ear turned toward Buddy. "I thought this was all about you killing me. So why don't you try and back up your riteous words!" he spat out vemenously.

Aaka laughed at his words. "Whats the matter dont like surprises?" She lept on him and started to tear at his hide. "Or are you afraid of being beaten by a girl? Dont worry Buddy wont be coming back in. He might help Death though. He is a bit out numbered. Oh and I would watch what you say there is one or two more left in the woods plus Spirit Ankh Skeil and Aicha still have ti come." Aaka smiled. This was going to be a sweet victory.

"You seem to be the one scared! Needed that brute to come in like he did. And don't think this is all the allies we have." He met her attack with equal ferocity. His strong fangs tearing and slashing at what ever flesh came to them. After slashing several times at Aaka, he drove his forward again and tried this time to grab her shoulder and hold on. His once white fur was becoming tainted with crimson, but so far the injuries were nothing too serious or debilitating.

.the white wolf, recovering from the swift attack, spun about and launched herself at her tormenters, shoving them hard, before running towards aaka. she saw her fighting legosa, and she snarled angrily. her green eyes narrowed, and she leapt at him, her own fangs bared...

.the feline snarled angrily as the birds attacked her, and her large paw lashed out at the bird in front of her as she spun, grabbing for the second bird with her teeth. she saw, out of the corner of her green eyes, the male feline challenging her, but she simply ignored him for now...

"Really? Well then where are they? Or will they not come because they are too scared?" Aaka saw aleu coming. "No aleu this is between me and him. Go and help Death or Saquioa. They are in need of more help than I am. Or better yet..." Aakas eyes flashed. "Aleu I want you to help Sasha kill Mitya. Dont argue with me just kill her." Aaka then spoke to Legosa. "There is that better? They will kill her Legosa." Legosa slashed Aaka's shoulder but not deeply. She snarled and attacked his rear back leg. She tried to grab a hold of it and keep that hold. She would break the bone. She would cripple him. Then kill him.

He defended himself against Aleu if she continued with quick snaps of his fangs. But never did he fail to let attention fade from Aaka. He whirled around she began to bite his leg and he yanked it back swiftly. This cost him long furrows down his leg where her fangs had been pulled threw his skin, and from which blood swelled and ran profusely from the main viens there. But he had saved his bones and tendons from damage so far. "Death will not claim Mitya or me today, be sure of that!" he snarled without a tone of sarcasm which he normally had. She had struck a nerve with him about her comment on Mitya; known to perhaps no one but himself, but he had grown feelings for Mitya.

Aaka tasted Legolsas blood in her mouth. She wanted him dead not in pain. Her shoulder was hurting. It was also bleeding. Not badly but still bleeding. "Oh yeah and how do you know that?" Aaka turned and tried to sink her teeth into his shoulder this time. Payback. It was always bittersweet. She yelled at aleu her attention still on Legosa "Change of plans. Kill Mitya." Aaka was waiting for Skeil. And Ankh and maybe Achia. She needed Spirit though. Spirit was one of Aakas closest friends. It was the only one she trusted. She was the one who took Yersinia to the woodland farm. Aaka wasnt afraid of Legosa. Most would say she should be.

He was about to pull away from Aaka as she went for his shoulder, but he didn't. A malicious expression crossed him mug, "Like I said before, you have no idea what you've gotten yourself into. If you think..." he was about to finish when the searing pain of Aaka's fangs hit his shoulder. Instead of trying to pull himself free of the grip, his own fangs went straight for the side of her neck, and for a good hold instead of the slashes he had been using.

Aaka felt him turn. She wasnt quick enough but she did move enough that he caught the side of her throat instead of the center. But it hurt. It hurt severly. She yelped through his shoulder. "Let go of my throat and I will let go of your shoulder." Aaka twisted her body in unnatrural movements. But it only caused more pain. He wouldnt let go of her! She would have to call some one if he didnt let go.....

The brute gave a cruel laugh and clamped his jaws together as hard as he could. "I thought we wanted to kill each other?" he sneered between clentched teeth, "Look who's scared now." Now he could use his massive size to an advantage. Without relenting any pressure in his bite, he began to thrash his head from side to side as savagely as he could. He struggled against the lashing pain it caused his shoulder, for if Aaka didn't let go then he was hurting himself as well. His eyes narrowed more as he struggled to hold back a yelp. He didn't think about his other enemies lurking around, and only hoped that his allies were back him up; but his nasty attitude in the past probably wouldn't get him much help from anyone.

Aaka growled "Fine I gave you a chance." Aaka latched on harder into his shoulder. He was causing alot of pain in her neck. But it could be healed. The ruins would soon be colored crimsom. She wanted to yelp again but she was to angry. She growled and snarled through his shoulder. He was only a bit larger than he. Aaka wanted to call Buddy. But she was too stubburn. And she was in much pain <

Buddy saw what was being done to Aaka. He wouldnt go in unless told. But he wanted to help her. If he just....No Aaka hadnt called him he wouldnt go. He would wait for her call.

Legosa shook several more times, trying to inflict all the damage he could to her neck. But it soon became too much for his shoulder to bare and he was forced to stop. Part of his strategy had failed; he meant to get a fatal grip, but it was foolish to try that early in a fight against an experienced fighter. Now they both had painful but not life-threatening holds on eachother and both seemed to stuborn to relinquish their hold. "Ha, a chance for you to get a better hold on me!" he retorted to her comment. Still keeping his grip on her neck, Legosa suddenly lunged forward with all his might, using his strong hind legs to propell him forward. He was attempting to pin Aaka to the ground.

Aaka felt herself starting to move. She vouldnt go down. Not now. She stiffened her body. I wont o down she though. "Dont make me call Buddy." Aaka liked Buddy. He was kind and strong. He was black unlike her white. She growled at Legosa. She pushed back at him. She was now happy that she was larger than her siblings. Her throat and shoulder were in pain. Would he let go? Or would she have to call Buddy?

He growled deeply in frustration. He had used this tactic against others plenty of times, but of course they had mostly been dogs and smaller at that. "Ooo, I'm just shaking with fear." he retorted sarcastically. If he didn't have such a big ego, he wouldn't have said that because it could only get him in deeper trouble. "So I'm just gonna let go knowing you'll let go as well." was his next sarcastic comment, "More likely you'll just secure a better grip after I let go! But..." before continuing his sentence, Legosa actually did let go. But right after he struck out to try and get a better grip on her neck.

Aaka was about to let him go when she felt him trying to get a better grip. So she re tighted her hold. How dare he? She had been about to let him go. He lost his chance. She shook her head like Legosa had done. She would repeat everythinng he had done to her.

Mitya launched her bodice over the one befor her, she ran straight for Aaka. Fangs bared she launched again aimng for Aaka's shoulder that was bleeding already, fangs were set to dig in and bit down as hard as any wolf could

Aaka was doing everything she could think of when she all of a sudden fekt another pair of jaws on her. She yelped through Legosas shoulder. She wouldnt let go. Where was aleu? Aaka couldnt fight both of these wolves at once. Aaka growled and tried to scratch at Mitya. But she knew it coudnt do much damage.

As Aaka's paw came back, it hit Mitya's nose scratching it, she growled, it only made her bit harder. Keeping a hold on the shoulder, she tried to jump down to Aaka down.

From out of the brush behind legosa, Spirit leaped with her ivories barred and rammed him with all her might, forcing him as hard as she could to the ground. She thrashed her fangs at his maw, trying to take his clench and attention off Aaka so Aaka could deal with Mitya. She tried to get a frim hold on Legosa's muzzle. She snarled "Your death will will not be swift, I will kill you off with as much pain as you have given my friend." With that she let out a malicious snarl and pushed off her hind legs, trying to drag him with her amazing force away from Aaka. Her first attack she had the advantage of surprise, but he may have gotten ahold of her by now.

Blade snarled as he stood looking down, he motioned for Death's Angel to go.

At once Death Angel stood and leaped down, fangs bared she aimed to grab hold of Spirit, any part of her.

When Mitya jumped down, Legosa dropped down too to aid Mitya's efforts. But then Spirit had rammed into him, jolting the painful hold Aaka had on his shoulder, but also making his hold on the wolf jolt as well. The stuborn brute held on even as Spirit slashed at his muzzle, "Another mutt we get to kill." he muttered between his tightly closed jaws. He was just about to let go to defend himself but then Death Angel stepped in to deal with Spirit. Hoping that she could distract Spirit, Legosa turned his attention on Aaka again, trying to pull her down still.

Aaka felt herself going down. She could only hold one wolf off. She needed Buddy. Or Skeil or Ankh or anyone else. Aaka was about to call for Buddy. But she held off. Keeping her hold on Legosa she again tried scratching Mitya. She started to shake her head back and forth. Come on. The pain will get to you soon she thought

As Mitya pulled her down, she tried to throw her to the ground hard. She emitted a growl, it was to be a call but she wouldnt let go. If she did she kept hold on Aaka's shoulders as she lifted her peds to scratch at Aaka's face. If She did not, she began to hske her head vigourisly back and forth trying to rip her shoulder blade apart.

At once Azja, Islay Anzac Akela, Ikwa, Forbidden, Tsarr, Tyrone and Domanic, backed off from their fights, and went to

Aaka felt pain in her shoulder. She let go of Legosa. She would get him later. She turned her head and started to bite at Mitya seeking a hold somewhere. She wasnt sure where yet. Her shoulder was holding out but not for much longer. Aaka tried to grab Mityas leg. She now had a plan.

As Mitya did, he emitted a sharp bark to summon back everyone except for Death's Angel.

Night Flyer first dove at Aaka's soft belly that was exposed, aiming to take hold with his talons then fly up ripping skin.

Maverick ran back up to his side, Ebony landing infront of her as she lay down.

Rigged Edge snarled as he back up, he stood beside his couger companion.

Winter Wing didn't listen to Blade, she flew low, hovering above Aaka.

Couger still stared down at the other couger, he snarled at her.

He released her neck just as she let go of his shoulder. He was surprised to find himself stumbling slightly as he put pressure down on the torn shoulder. All that thrashing and biting had torn the muscles there. Quickly his thoughts of his own discomforts were pushed aside as well as the could be as he searched out a new victim. Spirit. Once more keeping himself low, Legosa plunged forward to try and hit the wolf and throw her off balance.

Aaka didnt like the birds. She hated them in fact. There were a few exceptions. Aaka once more tried to sink her teeth into Mityas leg.

She had been toppled over by Legosa, and the strange thing is she had let him. She let down her guard as she thought about the words her new alphas had said. They rang in her ears. She did not attack. She looked hesitantly at Mitya and Legosa. She stood up, but her eyes looked like she was fighting herself. Dare she fight? But her friend was being hurt badly, she couldn't stand for that. Or could she? She didn't know what to do. "What. How. Aaka, you didn't tell me. I can't fight with Mitya here. Not her friends! Not with Manov and Cortinarri!Can I???" She was too confused and did not have any guard up. What to do????

Aaka looked at her friend. "Spirit. You must. I dont care what Cortinarri and Manov say. I will be the one punished. I was the one who tried to help. I am sorry for getting you into this. But please Spirit. I will deal with them. I will help you. You have to trust me." Aaka looked at Spirit. Would her friend let her down?

She stared at Aaka with a pleading look in her eyes. Then they went cold. She turned to Legosa, her lip curled suddenly in a snarl, staring and waiting, her haunches tense, hoping to counter-attack. 'I am sorry Manov' she thought. And then she continued her malicious stare....

.the slender white wolf had slipped back into the woods for a short time, wishing to watch her opponents and get a feel for their fighting style. now she emerged again, her green eyes narrowed into slits. she slunk down the small hill atop which she had been perched, and she watched, waiting for the attack she knew would come...

.the slender feline had simply sat on her haunches, bored with the whole situation. she yawned, ignoring the other.

Legosa gave a small, haunting grin but didn't yet attack Spirit. "You seem hesitant to attack. I would be too, if I were you." he took a deep breath, taking in the scents clinging to Spirit. He could clearly pick out Manov and Cortinarri's odor on her, and the Silver Glades pack in general. He knew an alliance existed with at least some of their members to Mitya, "Go ahead and attack me if you dare." he taunted before turning his attention for the moment on Mitya and Aaka. He would be make sure Mitya won the fight.

Death's Angel stood in a defensive position watching aleu run into the forest.

As she bit down and tried to scratch at Aaka's face she got alittle careless, and Aaka got hold of her paw. She growled in pain but never let go her shoulder, she pushed her jaws down more into the flesh searching for bone, veins, anything. Mitya didn't pull back her paw, or try, she knew it wasnt a good idea it would jus cause more pain.

Aaka bit down harder on Mityas paw. She tried to break it. Make it painful. She growled and pulled...Causing pain in her shoulder. "Mitya let me go. I am already going to get in trouble for attacking you. Let me go. If I dont let you go I will let you kill me."

"Then you shouldn't of started what you cannot finish." She snarled threw her teath, she didn't care if her paw got broken, she clamped down as hard as she could then pulled back on the shoulder.

Aaka let go of Mityas paw and instead twisted her body to go for Mityas throat. "Excuse me but who started this? I saved Legosa drom Black Fyre and dont give me that crap about he could kill her anyday. All I did was try and help him. So pardon my mistake. I wont help anyone ever again." Aaka was angry at herself. She had known better than to get into this. But she had gone against her instincts abd had helped.

.the white wolfess stood silent, her green eyes narrowing slightly as she watched the other wolf "stand" her ground. what a laugh. she snarled quietly, lowering her head, covering her neck...

.the feline watched silently as the other cougar moved into the forest, and she shifted her self, her green eyes glancing into the shadows in the forest, her muscles taunt, ready...

Aicha approached the fight. More like a call for mercy. She had to admit, Aaka had no chance. But she doubted that Aaka had chosen to accept that fact. It was quite obvious from the shape she was in. She studied both sides, recognizing many. Mitya, Legosa, Azja, and many others of their companions. But only Death, Aaka, and Saquuoi on the opposing side. In her mind she squabbled with herself. She knew Aaka was counting on her Skeil and Ankh coming to help. But looking over the group she was supposed to fight, there was no way Aaka would bring her into this one. Nigrescent ess began a slow pace, standing to the side of the groups. Not wavering to one side or the other she stood in between both. But out of the way if either side decided to rush one or the other. Aicha's stance widened, dial lowered slightly and tucked in, creating a fluffy barriar over her vital region. Fully defensive she would be ready if attacked, but waited to pick up the peices in the end. There was no doubt, if either of the fighters came close to death, she would intervine, but Aicha highly doubted that it would come to that. But then again, it was hard to tell. She knew who Legosa WAS, but not what he was. Finally Aicha decided that she would play the safe side, and move in if it came to that.

Aaka glanced up not letting go of whatever part of Mitya she had. She saw Aicha had shown up. She growled and tugged then yelped as Mitya tugged on her shoulder. Only one side of her was bad. And it was mainly her shoulder. Otherwise just slight slashes from Legosa. She growled at Mitya. "Let me GO Mitya!" Aaka was tiring of this. She didnt want to be kicked out of her pack and she knew that fighting Mitya would het her there.

MItya shook her head vigiourdsly. "Why so you can just turn on us?" She growled bitting harder, when Aaka rolled towards her when the shoulder Mitya pushed her back the other way.

Azja looked down as Achia, snarling he barked at her. "Achia, you wouldn't attack the group that helped you against the Shadow Lurkers would you?" He snarled, they had saved her before.

She watched with disgust as Aaka was torn apart by Mitya. But her life was not yet threatened. Her attention switched towards Azja, and she growled. How dare he say she would attack. They hadn't saved her, they had saved her food. But all the same, she was still in debt to them. With a snarl of her own, bodice changed to face Azja. Both were matched with size, and so with that size, breeding didn't matter. They were both slightly slower than the wolves that took a lower stance. Whether they tried to hide it, or just refused to believe were each others own choice. "No, I would not attack the group that helped me, but Legosa is a whole different story. He wouldn't help anybody." Aicha knew it was true, but she wondered if he would now change his attitude. Afterall, he had been saved by being backed up by a group so large. Banner curled to show dominance, auds pinned, ready to defend herself, but she wouldn't attack, she wasn't stupid.

"We both know that if I turned on you Cortinarri and her mate would kill nme. Now why would I want to be kicked out of a pack that I just joined? Tell me that Mitya." Aaka tugged also. She wasnt sure what part of Mitya she had and she didnt really care. Just to make pain would make her happy.

The large brute began to circle the two faes. He would make sure Mitya walked from the fight alive. He had an obvious limp with his front leg, but made sure to walk with his good shoulder facing out to the others, just to make himself look stronger and more ready to fight.

Aicha did notice his limp, and with that he wouldn't be able to jump forward as well when he attacked. She also looked over the others, Spirit, Aaka, and Mitya. They all had bite marks, and blood already matted into their fur. It was time to stop, everything had to come to an end, and this had already gone to far. Lives were being threatened. Aicha stepped forwards, pendulum raising into the air, she could easily take on any of them, and after already being injured, it would make it all the more easier. She growled lowly, low enough so that no one could hear her. She barked at Legosa, telling him to take Mitya away. They did not need to fight any longer, their point was made. Then Aicha barked to Aaka, telling her to release Mitya, and vica versa. She very much doubted that any would agree, but it was worth a shot.

She glared hard at Legosa, watching his every move. She then relaxed to a certain point, her defense still up, and asked "Tell me, do you know me well enough to say to my face whether I would KILL a mocking wolf? Or would I let you KILL me for my pack? Of course, if I died, I wouldn't be alive to return to my new pack, would I? Quite a conundrum...isn't it?" It was obvious she was stalling, but she didn't know what to do. When she saw Aicha, she became even more confused. She looked to Mitya, and taking her attention off Legosa, said "My friend saved that kill happy wolf from Black Fyre." She glanced at legosa. "Killing her really evens the score doesn't it?" She watched them all closely, but mainly legosa. She tensed up her haunches again, and curled her lip. She did nothing but snarl.

The only part the Aaka had of Mitya was her front leg, she didnt pull back though, pain shot through it, she had struck a brital bone the intensity made her madder. As the pain came more and more, she tried harder to rip Aaka apart. Growling she answered Spirit, her anser was muffled. "I dont care what she did! She is better of dead anyway, no one wants her here." Orbs glanced up to Legosa, then to Spirit, then Achia, then finally down to Aaka. Would it be better to let her live, have this as a lesson to her, so then another day she can come and try to kill me, or kill her now so i dont have to waste any more time with her.Mitya pondered over that thought.

"I want her here!" She snarled. She watched Mitya, and looked at Aicha. Surely she would stop this. Spirit was getting fed up. She wanted to be loved by her pack, but she also wanted to care for her friend. At this time, her friend was more important. She lept at Mitya, and tried to grab hold of her muzzle firmly. She did not puncture it, nor make it bleed, but tried to make mitya let go. If she would let go of Aaka, Aicha might be able to stop this fight. "You really think with her pack membership on the line she would return another day for you?" She growled. "Enough of this!" She was open for attack from Legosa, but didn't care. It was obvious she wasn't tying to hurt Mitya, but she pulled hard on her muzzle, trying to drag her off Aaka. This may hurt her friend, but to get Spirit off of Mitya, Mitya might have to let go of Aaka.

Aaka growled as the pain got worse in her shoulder. She had told Miya repeatedly that she could stop this fight. It wouldnt be a lesson....She could be accepted elsewhere. But she liked where she was in her pack. She was comfortable. Care free. She crushed down harder on Mityas leg. "Let go of my shoulder Mitya!" Aaka was begining to feel the pain. Before her anger had covered it. Now her anger wasnt enough. She needed a stronger emotion. But she couldnt think of one.

With her other paw she placed it on Aaka's neck, claws digging in as she pressed down hard. Then she pulled back on the shoulder done, trying to break it in half. The paw that was in Aaka's mouth was pulled back a little also, pain came more, but she pushed it aside.

Aicha was alarmed as Spirit moved to protect Aaka. That was bad, now all four wolves would be surrounding them. Legosa would surely join in. Fulcrums brought the nigrescent ess forward in a slow pace. She settled herself between Legosa and Spirit. Pistons spreading apart only slightly to allow better movement. Crania shifting to stare at him, not allowing him to grasp and part of her neck. She remained to that she could counter almost any attack, and if not, at least try to dodge. But still she showed no sign of aggresion. He had no reason to attack yet, Spirit had yet to break the skin, and even after skin was broke, it would take a while before blood could acually be seen from his position. The fight had lasted throughout the whole day, and the sunset soon arrived. This would have to end soon. First step was to keep Legosa away, if he got close, he would get into the fight, and only make it last longer.

She soon realized Mitya wasn't letting go. She let go of mitya's muzzle and changed positions. She went in between Mitya and Aaka's heads, and once again grabbed onto Mitya's muzzle. This time she pulled against Mitya's tear of Aaka's shoulder, trying to firmly ease the tissue and what was left of the skin out of Mitya's mouth. From this angle it would be hard for Mitya to get a better grip on Aaka, expecially with Spirit holding on to her muzzle this hard. No blood came yet. Aicha was still in mostly front of Spirit, and all though she didn't want her protection, she was glad to be partly protected by Legosa's blows. She hoped the fight would be done by nightfall.

As Mitya fought with Aaka's bone, she had a new pain as Spirit clamped onto Mitya's muzzle. She growled. With her free paw, she lifted it from Aaka, then sratched at Spirit's face. There was a very slim chance she was to miss. Her aim was to get Spirit's eye.

Aaka let out a small yelp as Mitya tugged on her shoulder. It was quiet and small but still noticible. Aaka clamped down with most of her strength on Mityas bone. Payback was fun/

Legosa feinted a charge at Aaka before springing suddenly to the side and dashing around the three fighting wolves in order to evade Achia. When Spirit went for a different hold on Mitya, Legosa tried to zip in and ram the wolf as hard as he could. He could see she didn't have a strong hold on Mitya, so he wasn't worried about her getting hurt if Spirit was thrown back suddenly.

When mitya scratched at her eye, she scraped across the eyelid and above and below there were huge gashes, meaning blood would more likely fill into her eye. She winced, but her grasp did not fail until Legosa rammed her. When she was pulled back, Mitya most likely went back with her, but not very far. This might give Aaka a chance to get a better grip. She flipped around to Legosa. "You just can't wait your turn can you Legosa? I'm not finished with you yet!" She snarled as she lept at him, aiming for his shoulder. She would most likely hit her target even if he dodged, but it would not be a good hold of muscle.

When Legosa tackled Spirit off her, she also got pushed a little bit not enought o lose her grip. She already knew that Aaka wouldn't be able to use her shoulder for along time because of this. Quickly she moved her jaws from her shoulder to Aaka's soft underbelly. Jaws clamped sut trying to get a hold of it.

Aaka felt Mitay let go of her shoulder. For this she was releived. But when she saw her going for her underbelly she went down. Not from Mitya. More like to ecscape Mitya. That and her shoulder wouldnt hold her.

When Spirit saw mitya go for Aaka's stomache, she retreated from her attack on legosa and spun around to hit Mitya at full blown speed, trying to hit her before she grabbed hold. She doubted Mitya would have grabbed on yet because Aaka collapsed. Therefore, Mitya most likely went tumbling into the brush. She then grabbed her friend gently and quickly slid her behind Aicha. She then turned to Legosa and Mitya, preparing for both, as they would most likely go for her.

His eyes had widened for just a blink of an eye when Spirit's fangs tore his wounded shoulder more. But he refused to show agony and pain and his eyes quickly returned to their chilly, killer-looking selves. Recovering from the momentary shock of the searing pain, Legosa collected his whits and looked about him. "Aaka wanted this fight, let her have it! Unless, that is, she can't handle it. Is that it, Aaka?" he sneered in question, glaring tauntingly at her before shifting his eyes to Spirit. His shoulder was hindering his mobility so he was reluctant to rush at this wolf now; she could more easily evade and then counter his efforts with her own attack.

A grunt was emitted from her maw as she hit the ground, a stick went through her side. She layed there for a moment. Then finally she stood up slowly, the stick still in her side, she tried to reach around and grab it but it hurt to much. Orbs glared at Spirit. Slowly she walked over to Legosa's side, she at first limped when she put her paw down, but over came the pain and walked on all four. The stick stuck out of her side, blood slowly seeping out down her bodice.

Aaka snarled at Legosas words and stepped out from behind Achia. She didnt know how she had gotten there but she had. She saw Mitya go down and come up with a stick in her side. Aakas gaze softened. "Hold Still" Was all she said. She kept her eyes on both her and Legosa. She was going to try to get the stick out of her side. She waited to see what Mityas reatction was when she went to get the stick. A thought went through her head but she didnt say anything.

Orbs glared as Aaka stepped towards her, fangs bared, a deep growl began in her throat. When Aaka went to grab the stick, Mitya bit at her face. "Get away." She jumped to the side, pain shot through her stomich and down her back. The stick couldn't come out for if it did blood would come gushing out, and she knew better then to try. Auds were pinned against her head. "Don't touch my side."

Legosa snarled wrathfully and snapped at Aaka's face as well if she dared get closer to Mitya. "If you know what's good for you, high-tail it outta here! Filthy vermin." His last statement was a low sneer before his hateful eyes fell upon the stick, making him grimace at the site. This was certainly no good. It definately had to come out sooner or later before infection took hold, but to take it out now would lead to death from blood loss. Legosa was completely unsure about what had to be done, so he just stood their with his hackles raised and eyes staring Spirit and Aaka defiantly down. At least he'd make sure no further harm came to Mitya.

Aaka just looked at them. She wasnt leaving. "Storm" She said. Storm came trotting out of the woods. "Hold Legosa off. I know where to take Mitya." She then turned towards Mitya. "We both need to go see the Lady. We may as well go togethe. Me for my shoulder, and throat. You for the stick and your paw....." Aaka didnt know if she had hurt Mityas paw or not. All she knew was that her throat hurt and her shoulder was horribly bleeding. She looked at Legosa. "Is this all right with you?" She asked sarcastically. She didnt really care what he said. She would take Mitya to the lady. The lady would make them feel better.

Once again Mitya snapped at Aaka's muzzle. "I'm not going anywhere with you." Bloody fangs bared twitching forward. Orbs began to glaze slightly. She began to feel a little light headed, she turned to look at her side, the stick had punctured something important. Blood was streaming out now as she stood. She sat down banner curled around her legs. Still she couldn't hold her self up on the one paw, so she lay down. First she was on her stomich, cranium up as her fangs were still bared. Then she lay down on her side, orbs flickering open then shut, she tried to stay awake.

"Yes you are" Aaka grumbled. She glared at Legosa. "I am going to need your help. My shoulder wont allow that." Aaka looked at Storm Warning. If Legosa wouldnt help she would have him hold Legsoa back. Her and Spirit would take Mitya to the lady. She went and started to grab Mitya by the scruff letting out a whimper of pain as her soulder got moved. Are you going to help me Legosa? Or will you allow Mitya to die? She thought. Are you going to allow yout mate to die? Or will you help me? Just this once? Get this done and over with

"Help? Ha! Only moment ago you hoped to kill us! I should highly doubt you'd suddenly waste your energy to help us!" When she went to pull Mitya's scruff, Legosa sprung at her, snapping visciously at her muzzle and face. He, like most others, had heard of the lady in the valley who helped wild ones; but he had yet to see her and was very skeptical. "Get your dirty fangs away from Mitya." he snarled in a low tone, now standing protectively over her. His own wounded shoulder trembled slightly at the effort of holding his weight, but it was nothing compared to Mitya's new injury. Legosa didn't know what he could do to help, but he would keep these others away from her at all costs.

She had never meant to hurt Mitya, but when she saw what happened, she knew she would regret it. "Legosa!" She snapped. "You know what is best for Mitya. If you will not let Aaka take her, take her yourself. We can lead you there. Or we can try to get the lady to come here. Do you want her to die legosa? For whether you believe me or not, I want her to live. Do not mock me. You know it is true. Once word is out that I hurt her, I will never have another pack again. I will most likely never breathe again either. Take her to the lady. SAVE her!" She began to get frantic. Mitya should not be this way. She should never be this way! But did she deserve to die? Did Spirit deserve to die? She was once again confused. The blood from her gash was stinging her eye.

He growled low, listening to Spirit. He too was getting frantic because he knew just how dire the situation was for Mitya, but he still couldn't trust Spirit or Aaka. The large brute moved his now anxious eyes to Mitya's allies, "Is this lady safe? I will take her there... but I don't know the way. Someone show me."

"I will show you the way Legosa. You are still my enemy, but by my pack Mitya is not." She had an honest look in her eyes. "Aaka, you follow behind at your own pace, and make sure to keep pressure off that shoulder." She said, nodding to her wound. She turned to Legosa "If you need help with mitya, I will be in front. Do you trust me?" Her last question was to simply make sure she could go on without him attacking her from behind. She then waited for them to assemble, and began heading out of the ruins. She mumbled to Legosa, so no one else could here. "The lady might have to take Mitya inside, and if you attack the lady, it will be your last act." She then turned kept moving in the direction of the ladies house.

Mitya tried to sit up, but with every movment it hurt. Auds listened to everyone speaking, it was as though they were yelling in her ear. She emitted a small whimpper.

Azja jumped down, scared for her life. He motioned for the others to leave. Then the large brute picked up Mitya by the scruff then carefully put her on his back. Slowly he stood and began walking to the lady's house carfully. "All of you follow me"

Aaka walked behind them. She accidently touched her injured leg to the ground and let out a yelp. Pain exploded through her body but she kept going. The lady would help her. The lady would help Mitya. "Storm.. Go to the Sedge Creek Pack Terra. There is a fight there with some of My allies. I want you to go and help them. Moon go with them." She then turned and concentrated on getting to the house

Legosa stalked after Azja, doing his best to withhold his own limp. His hackles were raised and he would let no one get near Azja as he carried Mitya; especially Aaka. A low, continuous growl exercised his point, and he glanced behind him often to make sure Aaka was well behind himself.
