I paced the land. Why didn't they follow Diablo? Ah! Their life should be more dependent right now then what rank is giving orders. I'll have to be sure to tell them that next time I see them. Although, I myself thought that it was pretty much self explanatory. If the omega knew where to go and it was safe, I would listen. However, there is no omega in this pack...

I wait not patiently at all. I look towards Bear and bark at him. "Just come along. Diablo should be coming with the rest. He'll tell them one at a time and to hurry up." I told him. I just needed my pack over here and safe.

M o o d: Fine, for now.
C r u s h: No one.
M a t e: None.

And just like that, the ones that I was trying to save, where gone behind me. I growled furiously at myself for letting me lose them. I looked to Desea and nodded my head once, before turning back into the forest. I should be the given a higher rank for this. I ran as fast as I could searching for the rest of my pack.

I finally found them, although a large trunk was separating us from each other. I growled once again inside, my head this time, though and backed up. I came hurdling towards the trunk and jumped over it. Although, my landing was never great. I skidded on my paws and hit the ground with my side. I was nearly burned by some burning bushes. "Guys, follow me." I managed to get out and got up on all fours to look at them. "The fire isn't over where we are going, just come this way." I told them. Desea will be angry if we get separated from them.

Eva watched as the shaking Silver touched ground and moved up to her "Your alright." She said warmly through the herbs in her mouth. "I'll give you something later for the nerves if you still need it." She managed to say but coughed from the dryness of the smoke, dropping the herbs to her feet. She shut her eyes tightly but kept her paw from rubbing across them, it would only make it worse. "Don't rub your eyes." She said to them. She turned to Six who just made it over the log and smiled softly, giving him a comforting lick on his ear.

Bear heard her tell him to get over and he took a glance to the fire again. "Alright." He barked and leaped onto the log, it shook slightly and his heart immediately felt like it stopped. He moved slowly across it, twitching his ears at every sound the wood made as he scooted his way over. Half way through, his paw slipped but he quickly regained balanced and quickened his past over the log. As he gets close enough, he could simply jump from the log and get off the death trap as soon as possible.

As he got to the edge he jumped from the log to the ground in a matter of seconds and sighed in relief, his tone shaken. "Everyone okay?" He asked curiously and looked to everyone then stopped at Desea. "Sorry Desea," He bowed his head respectfully to her before straightening back up and coughed slightly.

Ross threw his head up in a laugh, although it ended up in a cough. "I'm not running towards a burning forest." He growled, waving his tail in the other direction. The smoke was thinning, and the rush of water was a low undertone, but it could be heard, even if the fire was louder. "That is our goal, and it will be much easier than trying to jump that log." His eyes sparked, and he kept pacing towards the river, calm in the midst of the flames and smoke. At least on the outside. He knew that running would take up more oxygen. He turned to Seraphina, and nodded in answer to her question. "Rivers are the safest place in the middle of a fire." He turned again, and coughed a little more, before tumbling out of the choking smoke into the cool water.

He took a short drink, calming his rough throat, before standing and trotting back to the others, circling around as if he was herding them towards the river. "Don't drink too much right away, you'll get sick." He woofed softly, remembering the advice one of his few friends had given him while they were laying together on the bank of a river much like this one. She'd had white fur, and it had turned grey with the soot that had settled in her pelt.

"Sorry for what?" I asked Bear. He didn't do anything wrong. If anything, he did everything right. I looked at him and cocked my head. "I guess I don't understand why you would be sorry, Bear." I told him honestly.

All he did was listen to me. I looked out to the woods again. Yet, again, no sign of the other pack members. I sighed slightly worried. {{WB}}

"What do you mean?! The fire is behind you! I am trying to take you away from it! And its where Desea wants us. Follow the river upstream where the fire isn't! We will hit the pack and then we can leave this side of the forest! We must hurry though!" I told him frustrated. How could he not see that the fire was behind him. The fire could dry out the river. It was small enough. Thats why they had to escape it. By leaving this side. Obviously this wolf has inhaled too much smoke to think correctly.

"Can you not see?" I asked him frustrated. "Desea wants us all to stay together. Not split up." I told him and paced around frustrated with this wolf.

"Makes sense." Seraphina nodded as she headed toward the river, eager for the soothing water to soothe her ragged throat. Just as she bent her head down, however, another voice stopped her in her tracks. She glanced back to find that Diablo had come after them again - although he must be irritated by now. Suddenly uncertain, she wavered between the two males before finally taking a few hearty swigs of water and pretending that she hadn't noticed him yet as he launched into a tirade against them. A little cowardly of her, but she was always one to stay behind the scenes. For the moment, she stood with her back against the others, reluctant to stop gulping down the relieving liquid, but she had no doubt that she would regret it if she drank much more. Finally, she made her way to Ross and Fire's side. "Ross?" She shot the beta a sideways glance, waiting for his response to Diablo.

"You must be kidding." Ross glanced at the fast moving expanse of water. "Of course the fire is behind us, we were going away from it too, towards the river, across which was the pack, easy choice. Through burning forest to get to the pack, or through water to get to the pack. No matter how long the fire rages on both banks of the river, the only thing that's gonna kill me is hypothermia from not leaving the water, if I choose to do that." Ross snorted at Diablo, it was simple science. "Besides, who said we weren't gonna go towards the pack. My way is just much faster than yours, and quite a bit more safe than running through a burning forest." He wondered why Diablo was so opposed to crossing the river to get to the pack anyways. It wasn't as if the fire was in the mountains too, melting the glacier that gave them water... that would only give them more water, and it would put the fire out too. Perhaps he was afraid of water or something.

He looked at Seraphina, and shrugged. "It is your own choice, all of you. But hey, I know what I'm doing." Ross wasn't bluffing, this river was easily navigated until the big rocks, and unless none of these wolves knew how to swim, they'd all make it across easily, there was barely a current here, and it wasn't flood season. There hadn't been too much rain, which was why the forest had been dry enough to alight in the first place. And fire spread the way the wind pushed it. The fire wouldn't be alive for too much longer, it had run out of room, being pushed up against the water, it would soon die out. With a sigh, he glanced at Diablo. Nobody was in danger anymore, now that they had reached the river. Diablo was just being pushy. The fighter may be the alpha's message boy, but that didn't mean that Ross wasn't following his directions. If Desea wanted the pack together, he'd bring the rest of the pack to her. "You all know how to swim?"

He knew Fire was able to, he was still pondering over that fact, but he didn't know about the other two. It was unlikely, but as long as he didn't have to carry both of them at the same time. One, he could carry easily, but two... he was eyeing Diablo. Everyone was lighter in the water, even with all that fur and mass. Besides, Ross was stronger than he looked. He'd trained carrying his cousins through the water, and they'd been twice his size at the time. He glanced at the water again, calmly, then waited for their answers. If none of them wanted to swim, he supposed Diablo could take the rest back through the forest, but he wasn't sure how long until the smoke was too thick to even use the close to the ground trick.

[My understanding of the geography is that Ross and his little group is on one side of the river, where the fire is, and everyone else is on the other side. The fire started on the side of the river/canyon that Ross is on, so therefore he and the others have to cross the river/canyon to get out of the fire's way. Everyone else went across already, so they're safe. They can't 'hit the pack' as you say, since they'd have to cross the river/canyon first.]

{{- okay, I don't know how else to explain this to you. There is no fire ahead of them from where the others are. Diablo is saying that they need to follow the river, upwards bringing them to the other half of the pack. The land is going to get higher as the progress up hill. They won't be able to find each other that well if they just 'swim across'. There is NO fire ahead of them. It's safe. It is behind them. Diablo is trying to get you to go forward to get to where the others are.

edit: I am not arguing this topic anymore. I am sorry, but I will have to demote Ross to a fighter for your stubbornness. I don't need the frustration at this time. Just please try to follow along. -}}

[Look, if you feel like you have to control everything and everyone in the rp, that's fine, but Ross is a stubborn wolf, and you can do whatever the heck you want, but I never said there was fire in front of them. In front of them is the river. Everywhere else there is fire. Across the river there is no fire. It isn't just gonna stop. You are saying that Diablo knows better than anyone, and apparently you do as well.

Besides, I'm not the only one who is stubborn, and I have better things to do than fight with you on your own rp. You can have your wolf be perfect if you want, I'm leaving. As of right now, Ross was fed up with everyone, and he left. No he didn't die some humiliating way, or anything, he just left. Perhaps I will see you around the forums, and I hope it is under nicer circumstances. I quit.]
