Aava

The white wolfess slunk easily through the temple, sniffing the ground as she went along. Her body was held low to avoid any unwanted attention, and she stuck to the boulders, hiding and slinking behind them like a cat ready to attack.
Her reasons for coming here were unknown. All she could possibly know was that she had found this place, and the stench of others hung heavy on her nares. How horrid, and she growled low under her breath.
Soon she came to a halt at the end of one rocky ledge, sticking to the shadows, although it probably wouldn't matter with her cream-colored pelt. She lowered onto her belly then with her eyes washing over the darkness before her, as though looking for her next victim.

Tahti

The smell of a stranger came to the coyote's nose. She growled and sniffed out the wolf, trying to keep a dominant position over strangers. It was everyone's duty to guard the pack, she thought. She sat down in front of the white wolf, staring her down with her one eye. "I am Tahti. You are in the realm of the Shadow Haunters." She said blankly, showing no emotion at all.

Aava

Aava had a blank expression on her face, nothing more, just her eyes glaring at everything. Still, low growls came from her throat, and then increased when the coyote appeared in front of her. At this, she immedietly was on her paws, baring her fangs, staring the canine straight in the eye. She spoke no words, only gave the growls. Her lanky but strong body gave no hints of motion, but the side of her muzzle twitched to flash those gleaming fangs. Then, as though she had been waiting for a cue, her head shot forward and aimed to slash her fangs down upon the coyote's flesh. However, it wasn't a long attack, she was quickly pulled her head back again, with the speed of an expert. Danger was her last name.

Tahti

Tahti growled and raised her hackles. "You must be a fool to challenge a Shadow Haunter!" She spat, hate in her eye. She stood up and bared her own fangs. "If you fight one of us, you fight all of us!" She snarled when the flesh on her muzzle was torn. "Don't touch me!" She snapped. Not wanting to be a fool and fight a larger wolf by herself, she waited silently to see what Aava would do next.

Aava

Aava gave a snarl at the coyote's words, laughing with a rather evil tone. She held no fear for fools. "You must be a fool to approach me in the first place!" she shot back, her wolven lips curled back in another horrid snarl. "You measling little thing!" she then growled, striking out once more, this time aiming to lash her fangs across Tahti's face. Aava held no fear, she never had, and never would.

Tahti

Tahti narrowed her eye. Measling little thing? She thought. She could not deny it, but she had to comment on it anyways. "A bark does not wound." She said calmly. "I believe you lowlifes say 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.'" She simply jumped back when Aava struck at her. "You're going to have to try harder, princess." She still showed no emotion, as she had even shortly before her son's death.

Aava

Aava only sneered at the coyote's words. "Lowlives? Just look at what you have here, living in some dirty old human shack that's over a hundred years old," she stated, her voice low and daring. She had seen enough of this place to know it was no good. "This place is as filthy as the dirt." she then added, giving a dark chuckle. "And it's not princess. You certainly aren't living in anything fit for a queen." she sneered once more, though this time only stood there, glaring at the coyote while growling. Aava was the cool kind of crazy.

Incalia

For the second time, another trespasser decided to challenge a Shadow Haunter. Though the challenge was not for her, Incalia had heard the sounds of growling and fighting outside the temple. She manouvered her muscular frame out towards the pair, adding her own snarl to the chorus. Her eyes flashed, bloody fangs now in full view as she began to circle the pair. "Another who does not know their place." She came to a halt a few feet from Aava, just to the right of Tahti. "Wipe that smirk off your face, mongrel. You don't know anything about us, and I wouldn't go insulting our home either you pathetic excuse of a wolf."

Tucking her neck, the hybrid pulled back her ears and tensed her muscles but somehow managed to look as if she was mocking the opposing wolfess. 130 pounds of pure power. She had killed many, and this fool would easily join the list. "Come on then, what are you waiting for."

Aava

Aava kept her eyes on Tahti the entire time, and then some other canine appeared. She only waited until this next one was finished with her little intro speech, only giving her words a sneer and little to no heed whatsoever. "So, you must be quite the weaklings if you don't fight your own battles," she stated with a growl and side smirk, eyes glinting. "And you, vix," she began once more, staring straight at Incalia, her auds flat against her skull, "I'de watch that pretty little mouth of your own before someone chokes those words right outta you, ya no-good mutt," she added to her words. Her banner lashed out behind her then, like a feline. Aava had lost half of her normal feelings. Words were nothing but words to her, quite literally bringing the 'sticks and stones' into play.
"And I'm waiting for you to move your sorry behind out of the way so I can deal with thise coyote execution-style," she beamed, shooting off another one of her word groupings that she found it so fun to say. She may not have the muscle, but she certainly had the agility and wits to overcome her opponents.

Tahti

Tahti smirked and tilted her head cockily when Incalia came near. "Two Haunters against...whatever you call your revolting species." She said with a snarky grin. She stepped forward and held her head high. This was Haunter territory - Tahti's territory. Nobody gets past her without a fight.

She laughed when Aava said she was going to "deal with this coyote." "Oh really? I'd like to see you try, Skippy!" She growled, raising her hackles. "Well go on! Are you too afraid? Shall I go easy on you?" Tahti was quite strong for her small size, and she was cunning as well.

Aava

Aava's auds twitched at the coyote's words then, and she shot her dial out and powerfully snapped her jaws in the air, in front of Tahti's face. Then she pulled back, auds pasted against her dial, fangs bared to the very edge of the gums. "It's called wolf, stronger than any puny thing like you'll ever be," she stated back, growling. "Such a disgrace to nature should be wiped off th face of this planet!" she then snarled, her banner flicking. "And Skippy? You'll have to do better than that! I could have your face in the dirt! The ground will be wearing you,"
Aava may have gotten quite lanky and skinny over the years since the deaths in her family, but she had learned to use it all to her advantage. She was keen, quick on her paws, skillful with the ways of fighting.
She certainly wasn't a pushover.

Tahti

Tahti laughed. It's called wolf...such a disgrace to nature should be wiped off of the face of this planet. She thought. She assumed that the crazy wolfess was insulting herself. "The wolf is a disgrace?" She shot back. "But you are right. You are a disgrace, and you should be wiped off the face of this planet." She smirked and narrowed her eye. "One who boasts of being so perfect should not throw empty threats." She said in a deathly tone. Her own fangs were bared, showing that this was not a game. "Kill me. I dare you..." She growled. "Oops...I forgot. You can't." She circled around Aava, laughing cockily.

Incalia

Now choosing to grin sinisterly, Incalia rolled her shoulders, narrowing her dark eyes as she glared daggers at Aava. "If we're so disgusting why are you here, darling? This is no place for such a lovely wolf." Taking a few aggressive steps forward, the smirk faded to reveal a malicious snarl. "I've already shown one pup his place this week, I'm quite ready to do the same to you. He bled everywhere."

"Tahti, I have no doubt she could kill you. However," she puffed out her fur, her hackles up and those lovely blood encrusted teeth in full view, "to do that she'd have to get through me. There's no way in hell she could kill me and I'm tired of this pathetic squeaking in my ears." Now, a furious snarl erupted from the hybrid as her muscles bulged. "Come on then, Princess, Show me what you've got!"

Incalia drove forward, aiming to body-slam Aava into the ground and seize her throat.

Majikan/Enshalla

Minutes passed before the pair of tigers heard the quarrel over the other sounds in the Temple. Majikan, the blue-colored tiger, was first on scene. "And what do we have here? As far as I know, you are not of the Shadow Haunters, stranger." He growled, noticing her strange behavior. "You had better leave before the alpha sees you." He sat down and twitched his tail, glaring at her menacingly.

Enshalla always happened to be where Majikan was. The smaller orange female stood next to the blue tiger and growled. "Walk away. Just walk away before I eat you." She showed Aava her teeth to let her know that she was not bluffing. She really would try to eat the wolf.

Aava

Aava laughed histerically at everything they said. Then she shot the coyote a dangerous glare, as if daring her to make the wrong move. "Whether or not the wolf is a disgrace is no such thing for a puny punk like you to be choosing! I can't wait till the day you finally die, drop dead to the jaws of another. I can imagine why anyone would hate you, all you do is bask in your power, what little you seem to have, and expect everyone to follow what you say. Well life is a lot more complicated than that and I'll be here the day you finally figure that out, you vix." she shot off, giving her insults one by one. She had plenty more.
"And you, all mighty cross bred mutt, I'de like to see one of your kind take me on. No one needs the likes of you in this valley, or the filth you seem to put in everyone's minds. You're a disgrace to nature, and will be till the day you die. So either you start to accept the fact, or face the consequences of defying my word." she then snarled out briskly, giving an evil grin at this quite pleasuring experience. She was quite the tactful wolfess. So then she only gave a darkening flash of hatred at the two approaching tigers. "Aw, look, kitties! You dirty felines, living with mutts! Hah, just goes to show that none of you can settle your own disputes." she then taunted, flicking her banner before taking each of them in. She knew she was outnumbered, and she wouldn't try fighting them all, but she came here and wasn't about to leave without her fair share of remarks. How she loved her job.

Tahti

A snarky smirk spread across Tahti's scarred face once more. "Look who's talking...the poor little poodle who can't even remember her name." She hissed arrogantly. Her one eye narrowed and half of her mouth was curled up in a sinister grin. "You really don't want to be toying with me, pup. I'm a lot more than you think, no matter what the voices in your head tell you." She glared coldly into Aava's eyes. It could be seen by anyone that she hated this wolf.

Aava

Aava only narrowed her eyes and snickered. "Pup? You're the pup, you puny thing. I've lived in this valley far longer than you." she sneered, banner twitching. "The elders are always correct," she then stated, matter-of-factly. Then she gave a dark chuckle. This coyote was so amusing. "I wouldn't want to toy with you anyway, you're a cheap one." she then added, giving an uninterested sigh, though it was only for show. Then that same mischevious look came back upon her face.

Tahti

Tahti sneered at the wolfess. "I do not doubt that you have lived in this valley longer than me. However, aside from the Shadow Haunters, I have been a member of a group like this for all my life, swamp rat" She shot back in a dark tone. "Therefore I am not stained with stupidity and ignorance like your inferior species." She showed confidence - she was better than Aava and she knew it.

Aava

Aava sneered right back. So, she was trying to make herself sound better? Aava could care less what anyone thought of her, she was stronger and smarter. "Swamp rat? First off, I have never set paw in a swamp, and second off, I'm far from a rat." she shot back, sending out some spit as she spoke. "I have lived alone all my life, so I am anything but stupid and ignorant, you worthless hunk of junk. I learned by myself, not with the help of some inferior punks!" she then sneered once more, not afraid of this tiny coyote. The coy lived in this hideous dump, had 'friends' that were just as worthless, and now was badmouthing her. Aava smirked darkly at this thought.

Luke

Luke came up from behind Tahti. He knew he wasn't an official Haunter yet, be he thought he could prove himself by supporting his packmates. "We may be 'inferior punks,' white wolf, but at least we don't get our joy by throwing empty threats and making sour faces." He said calmly, raising his head and tail high.

Aava

Aava's dark eyes then turned to this new animal. Some canine, but only another to add to her list of 'to do' insults. "Empty threats? I'm not giving threats, I'm stating facts that everyone else must have overlooked." she gave a deepened chuckle, not even caring about this hybrid. This place was full of them. Filth.

Samara and Tazera

Samara a Siberian tiger Sister to Rajsa her look alike except that she was mostly normal coloring but lighter version of it.approached the group. She was not an official haunter but had enjoyed a meal with them so she would support them.Oh really? Do you want to go through with a threat then? Cuz I'm pretty sure me or my friend here even though she is tiny her teeth are some of the deadliest of teeth around so back offThe tigress growled.

The Devil made her devil sound and showed her fangs at the this she wolf.yah wanna try anything?

Aava

"And maybe you should get a life and let your friend here fend for herself," the wolfess once again gave a sneer. They were all alike, fighting each others battles, and quite unfairly as well. "No mangy tiger and whatever this thing is will stop me!" she growled, ready to move away incase anyone decided to get hasty.

Samara

She laughed at the wolf.You call me mangy? I think you should look in the mirror loveShe hissed.

Tazera growled devilishly.

Tahti

Tahti dropped the grin and glared at Aava. "How about you get a life?! Why are you here in the first place? What business do you have at the realm of the Shadow Haunters?!" She spat hatefully, narrowing her eye. She glanced back at Samara, then back at the wolfess. "If you don't leave, the tigers and dragons will eat you and I'll laugh at the stupid wolf who couldn't find her way home. We do have dragons here, you know."

Aava

Aava just gave a sharp 'ha' at the tiger and simply shook it off. "When you find me a mirror, tell me. While you're at it, I'de suggest taking a peek at yourself too." she chuckled, and then gave a hateful laugh at Tahti. "You need the life, dearie. I'm perfectly fine with the one I have. I'm here on my own terms, I don't need anyone telling me what to do and where to go."
She then gave an uninterested yawn, finding this quite pleasurable. She loved insulting. "I know my way around, miss, and only little puppies believe in dragons. You can't fool me, child." she then added, knowing full well that such a thing as 'dragons' weren't real. Simply a figment of imagination, and if one couldn't tell imagining from reality, then they had a problem. This, Aava could think confidently.

Samara

She laughed.You being a wolf you should know that this place belongs to a pack so unless you wish for death then I'd leave. Your lucky that they will allow you to leaveShe growled taking a step closer.

Tazera moved forward as well.

Aava

Aava chuckled. "And I'm not a stupid one at that," she began, still holding the smug smirky look on her face, "and as far as I'm concerned, I'll do as I please. After all, a wolf like me needs variety." she finished, yawning. She paid no attention to the steps, simply brushed them off with a flick of her banner. However, looks were decieving, and she was ready to jump away if anyone came at her. She wasn't a stupid wolf, of course.

Samara

She laughed.Apparently you are the stupid one for tresspassing on others turf

Aava

Aava only raised an invisible brow. "You must be one foolish kitty to speak to your elders in such a way." she stated with a smirk. "Places like this shouldn't be any kind of turf!"

Tahti

Tahti snarled savagely at Aava. She was tired of the games. "Te jälkisäädös syksyinen kohtuullinen kuin lepuuttaa -lta heidät!" She spat evilly. With one big leap, she launched herself towards the wolf with her deadly jaws opened.

Samara

She laughed.Oh pleaseShe then watched as Tahti launched her attack she would wait.

Aava

Aava grinned wickedly at Tahti. "I'm afraid your mumbo jumbo lingo doesn't mean a thing to me if I can't even understand it," she coughed, all to ready for the coyote's move. She leapt aside, snarling viciously with her jaws wide open, revealing a mouthful of glistening fangs. Fangs craving for blood long due. "And can't you say something better than just 'oh please'?" she chuckled, backing away a couple steps, keeping everyone in view. She was ready to fight, but if she had to take on a tiger as well, then she would simply avoid them instead. Aava wasn't that dumb, even though she often rushed into fights at the wrong time.

Samara

The tiger decided to join in the fray and lunged for the wolf.

Aava

Aava caught sight of the tiger and quickly leapt to the side once more. "You think I can't dodge a giant kitty with a bad atttitude?" she scowled, and then went to trot away, her dial and banner held high. "Sorry to burst your bubbles, but I'de stick around longer if only I didn't have some personal business to tend to. None of you are worth my time." she then chuckled, and soon was disappearing beyond the rocky walls to leave.
