PISTOL | Location: Outside the Tall Dens | Mood: Irritated | Tags: Open
──────────────────────────

xxxxxPistol was in a partially bad mood this morning. His dreams were filled of nightmares of the harsh winter they had lived through and of what's next to come. He had already seen some of the prey that the pack has been bringing back recently- Scrawny. Even the prey had it tough through the winter, now this heat killing their grass and plants slowly. For today, he hopes to join a patrol and get them up the mountain to where they migrate during the summer heat. He stretched out his legs and made for a brisk walk towards the Tall Dens, just down the street from the Tricastle. He sat outside the gates that held the old motel, waiting for any waking dogs.

xxxxxTempest sat in the shade outside her room at the Tall Dens. Rarely ever did she sleep in the room when it wasn't cold outside, a habit since her mother never wanted her in there. Just thinking about her mother set her into a mood, but not today. She knew she was going to sneak out of camp- After all, there wasn't any pup duties at the moment. She just had to find the time to go. The summer heat was especially hot under her dark thick fur, she was yearning to get into the river. Yet, she had to make sure no one followed her or seen her leave. So, for the time being, she simply watched all the going about of the pack.

KAIRACE | Location: Outside the Tall Dens | Mood: neutral | Tags: pistol / open
Kairace hadn't been able to sleep well last night. Perhaps it was the stress of the coming times that left her wary and restless. Whatever the reason, she found herself lying in the tall den with her head upon her paws. Though she should perhaps get up and start the day, she found herself studying the room around her. Eventually, loneliness overcame her and she found herself on her paws, shaking out her fur, and rushing out of the building and to the free world outside. Her eyes quickly located her alpha, a rather large canine that genetically made him even a bit larger than her--a wolf. "Alpha." She greeted him with a kind tone as she dipped her head.

SKYLAH | Location: Outside the Tall Dens | Mood: happy | Tags: open
Skylah, unlike Kairace, was awake early and full of energy. She bounded out of her room and skid down the hallways until eventually she was outside and able to breathe the fresh air. Though her room was comfortable, she much preferred the outdoors to the stuffy motel. She stretched out her limbs and ruffled her white fur. She knew she came off as a bit careless, but that was simply her friendly, up-beat personality shining through. She narrowed her eyes upon a beetle crawling nearby and pounced upon it.

JONARI | Location: Outside the Tall Dens | Mood: calm | Tags: open
Jonari was outside of the buildings as well, his eyes gazing towards the alpha and the several other canines that were awaking and making their way outside. He remained settled on the ground, his tail coiled around him as she gazed at the buildings around them. Once upon a time, long before him, there had been other species in these buildings. His kind had been reduced to the woods and their species had been dwindling due to those two-legged creatures murdering them off. Now, the canines were numerous, and their species were no longer in danger. It was a bitter-sweet ending he supposed.

blinking open her eyes she rose to her feet with a yawn. quickly, licking her muzzle, she thought about what she might do today. she knew that currently her stash of herbs was running low so she figured she might go out and try to locate some more things in case of any injuries or sickness that may come about. she stepped out of the den and walked into the sunlight basking in it for a moment.

eddie's head shot up with a jolt, he whipped his head back and forth in search of some unknown thing. quickly after he realized that he had simply woken from a bad dream and he shook his head trying to clear his thoughts, rising to his paws he stretched out his body holding his tail high in the air. finally giving himself a good shake he stepped outside of the tall dens, noticing tempest sitting in the shade he decided to say hello. trotting over to her with a grin he sat himself beside her "morning! how'd you sleep?" he asked casually sitting himself beside her and wrapping his tail around himself.

xxxxxPistol nodded his head towards the wolf, taking a seat and curling his tail behind him. He let his eyes trail over some of the waking dogs, ignoring the omega and her idle chat. “Kairace, get some other hunters that are still getting beauty sleep. I need a group for hunting elk, so grab a a few others.” He ordered, hoping he could keep the idea of even finding some elk.

xxxxxThe dark female glanced over at Eddie, giving a small smile. “Oh, good morning.” She said with a yawn. “Slept fine, some boring dreams.” She joked mildly, stretching out her back. She stood up, her hind legs a little crooked as usual. She gave Eddie a glance, an idea popping into her mind on. “So, you going to join Pistol for his hunting this morning?” She questioned, hoping for a no.

smiling lightly at her yawn he nodded along listening to her his own yawn coming forth contagiously. "yeah dreams... they are always boring huh?" he asked rhetorically head leaning to one side. hearing her question he responded "no probably not, i'm a much better hunter on my own." chuckling he added "or with anyone but him, why what are you up to today?" his tongue lolled out slightly from the heat of his coat, he hoped some clouds would cover the sun soon.

The black and white husky stretched out inside, yawning a bit, pink tongue gently curling then he stretched a paw. He opened gray eyes a moment, then shut them back up tight. He rolled over onto his other side. He smiled a sweet doggy smile and heaved a gentle sigh.

The blue eyed gray Labrador yipped in her sleep. Her skinny tail flipped around for a moment then it stopped. She thought about pups and got a happy smile on her doggy face. She heaved a sigh and rolled over.

Dakota awoke, strangely enough, well-rested. Usually, the fae had restless nights full of sporadic dreams. That night, however, was a blissful, dreamless sleep. She figured it was exhaustion from patrolling the city the previous day. It was still morning, the impossibly warm sun, having just crested the distant mountains. With a yawn and a stretch, Dakota stood to her full height and gave the air a quick sniff. The dusty, stale air was the only thing that met her nose along with the lingering scents of her packmates in nearby rooms. It was quite nice, Dakota thought, to be able to have her own room and get away from the others for at least a little while. It wasn't that she didn't like her packmates, in fact, they were the closet thing she had to a family, they were just... exhausting sometimes. With a single wag of her tail, the Groenendael headed out into the light. She had chosen a room on the second floor of the once, hotel. Knowing that if there was any kind of flood she would be safer up there, but she did have to deal with the risk of the roof leaking but thus, far the roof seemed sturdy enough. Making her way down the weary steps she began to wonder how much longer the staircases would be of use, for know though, they seemed sturdy enough and would concern herself with that issue at a later date. The pavement under her pads seemed to already be warming up to the sun, she knew it was going to be a suffocatingly hot day and at that she sighed. Dakota was surprised to see a lack of dogs in the area and wondered if she had slept in longer than she originally thought, but she didn't scold herself, sleep was an important thing and if every once in a while she got a little more beauty rest.. well she didn't see much harm in it. Her thoughts were interrupted however, with the sight of her packmates littered among the street just outside the tall den. Her eyes settled on the alpha, pistol. A true force to be reckoned with. She respected the hell out of that dog, she knew all too well the stress and pressure of being an alpha, never the less one during the beginnings of a brutal summer and what might become a famine. Nevertheless, Dakota never felt the need to fear him. She walked toward him but noticed he seemed to be telling one of the hunters, Kairace, something and not wanting to interrupt their conversation she called out a quick "Morning Pistol."

KAIRACE | hunter | location: outside the dens and ending inside | tags: pistol , ryland , skylah
Kairace nodded her head as she was given an order. She rolled her shoulders with interest and seemed to mentally prepare herself for the hunt. It was time to make a difference--it was time to feed their pack. She turned her attention to Ryland and gave a soft smile, "Indeed we are, would you like to help me gather a group to hunt?" While she may not be a leader, she could still make a difference. She turned her attention to the white husky bouncing about nearby. "Skylah, you seem full of energy this morning--let's hunt." She then padded into the tall dens in search of more canines to join their hunting group.

SKYLAH | hunter | location: outside the dens and ending inside | tags: kairace
Skylah perked up when she heard Kairace speak to her. A lopsided grin spread over her muzzle as she spoke. "Sure thing!" She padded quickly into the tall dens to keep up with the forming group.

JONARI | hunter | location: outside the dens | mentions: ryland | tags: open
Jonari seemed to be internally making a soap opera up about his fellow pack-mates as he watched the events unfold before him. He released a soft chuckle as he caught sight of Ryland giving their alpha some interested glances. Anyone within a 5 mile radius could probably see the canine's crush on the leader. It was a cute in a way.

♛ • ── ❝ ebony doberman pinschur brute with calm dark blue eyes ❞

paragraphThe brutal summer heat was the first thing that hit the doberman when ares woke up, scorching into his dark colored pelt. The ebony brute groaned slightly; summer was the worst when it came to his pelt color. Ganted, winter had not been much better when it came to his pelt color and hunting, but at least it was manageable. Stifling a yawn to the best of his ability, ares rose up on his paws and began to make his way to the main gathering area. The previously cool pavement underneath his paws was already warming up, a promise of a burning hot day. As of right now the sun wasn’t even at its peak. Picking his way through the crowd; he was late wasn’t he, Ares immediately picked out the tan fur of Pistol, his king, and the darker fur of Dakota, one of his loyal guardians. He internally huffed when he realized that she was the only guardian awake. Most of the hunters appeared to be awake at this time, though judging by how energetic they could be at times that was not much of a surprise. He gave Dakota a quick greeting before issuing another, more formal one to his king.

PISTOL | Location: Outside the Tall Dens | Mood: Worried | Tags: Kairace, Ryland, Skylah, Ares
──────────────────────────

xxxxxPistol watched the dogs gather, giving polite nods back to any formal greetings. The large tan dog gave a curt nod to Ryland, not giving him much of a glance. He knew of the rumors that the dog was interested, but Pistol always kept his distance. He wouldn't end up like his father, caught up in some romance with a handsome brute and ignore the pack in crisis. However, he still couldn't fully ignore the handsome Newfoundland. "Yes, up in the mountains. If we don't find any Elk by tonight, we might even make a temporary camp to see if we can catch them bright in the morning." He informed. It was usual to have a longer hunting trip, but those were usually in the winter when prey was harder to come by. If they could just get one, maybe even two elk, that would fill their bellies for a few days. Pistol himself last ate a scrawny rabbit a couple of days ago, letting everyone else get some pickings through the game before he even thought of eating. Yet, the king wouldn't admit that he was hungry. That was admitting defeat. He held in his worried sigh, keeping his demeanor up around the other dogs. "Ares, if we're not back in the morning, I need you to take care of sending out a couple of dogs to go hunting in the surrounding forest." Since there was no heir at the moment, Ares was always Pistol's number two. He often counted on him a bit more than he was comfortable, but he trusted that the doberman could handle just about anything. Pistol looked over the small group that had started forming. 'Me, Kairace, Skylah, and Ryland...' It was still too small of a group to head out. He eyed Kairace heading towards the tall dens as he asked, he stood up to let out a bark. "Grab at least two more!" He ordered, returning to his quiet posture.

xxxxxTempest smiled at the question, then her smile grew even more with his answer. 'Perfect!' The fae stretched out her back slowly, being careful not to twist her leg. "So, that means you'd be free to, I don't know, come help a poor omega to the river?" She joked, forcing the pity a bit. She hated using others just to get to a simple river, but she had no other choice since her mother ditched. Tempest had to rely on others, which made her more disappointed in herself as the days went by. "After all, you could fish a bit or hunt anything nearby. It's a win-win." She persuaded, batting her eyes. If Tempest wasn't a lowly omega, she probably be one of the prettiest hunters in her own opinion. She left out her own plan to try and fish for herself, always being told that it was a waste of time. 'I'll show them a waste...' She sneered in her head playfully.
