The Canton Pack {Open}

[Cakewalk]

CaThAl

Male || Alpha || Five Years Old || Alone

Cathal bowed his head once more when Sylan passed by, disappearing into the trees behind the pack, probably searching for something to do on her own. He didn't mind, as long as he knew where she was. Cathal could see Chet from where the trio sat, though the male liked to remain alone. He sighed as he watched the rain continuing to fall from the heavy clouds. Standing up, he moved his legs and jolted forward, glancing down the slope. The ground was sliding down down the slope, pulled down by the racing water. "I suppose we better go look for the others," he mumbled softly. He didn't want to put his pack at risk, though if someone was stuck out in the rain... Well, they could have only moments to spare. This rain wasn't getting any better, and they needed to do something. Sitting around and waiting for it to end wasn't going to ease Cathal's stress. "You may stay here if you'd like, or you may join me. Either way, I know you'll be safe." He paused, taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly. "Chet, you're welcome to join us," he said without looking back at any of the three of them. Though the male might hold them back, he would be another pair of eyes and ears to find the missing wolves.

Is it ok now? And I have to go)

|| Maleno ||

Maleno could see other wolves in the area clearly. Some were lounging, others were trying to get up the large hill. Her eyes flitted up to the sky, covered in grey clouds. Maleno blinked as a freezing droplet of rain fell in her eye and disappeared into the midnight colored fur on her face. She listened to the sloshing and steady dripping of the water, falling all around them. Her head turned as the sounds were interrupted by Cathal's orders. "I will go with you.... if you want." Said the low yet soft voice. Her head bobbed up and down once, and her eyes went back to the wolves below.

Chet

An invitation was cast his way, and for a moment Chet knew not of what to do with the Alpha's offer. It was obviously some sort of show of power, Chet assumed, allowing him to join to look for the others. Either that, or it was to show the other wolves that even an Alpha as strong as Cathal could show pity. Perhaps, it was just a way to get Chet into their midst so they could beat on the omega, a tradition observed in packs since times unknown. More and more possibilities and scenarios went through Chet's mind as he blinked in the gray light of day, all of them more persecuting than the last. Would this be an easy way to destroy a weak wolf?

Maybe excommunication isn't enough. They want me dead, but they don't want my blood on their paws. Chet thought as he stayed stone still and let the rain wash what was normally the forest floor off his coat. If the others were put at risk, he knew it would not mean anything good for the pack. If anything bad happened, it would put Cathal in a mood, which may effect Chet's chances of eating.

Before he could dwell on any slightly paranoid analyses of what the other wolves were thinking, Chet trotted up to the others, but still kept his distance. He would give anything to fit in with the others, to seem normal. The ones who seem like nothing is wrong, the ones who put on the perfect facade are the ones no one ever expects. With his ragged and disgusting appearance, Chet stuck out too much to slip under the radar in any way. The least he could do was feign stupidity.

Chet had plans of his own, just when they would be put into effect, he did not know.

Ellie Sat quietly and listened to her alpha. She silently stood and padded over to him, waiting for him to lead the way down the hill to look for more wolves. The journey up the hill was bad enough for her, she just hope it wasn't as trecherous down. She looked up and the sky with eyes like slits, almost glaring at the dark menacing clouds above. She looked back down and shook her pelt, clearing some of the mud off, leaving small patches of white fur.

CaThAl

Male || Alpha || Five Years Old || With Chet, Maleno, and Elanor

Cathal nodded and looked back at the trio that was to follow him. They were already muddy and drenched and no doubt freezing to their cores, as he was. The cold fall weather had moved in and managed to make the weather uncomfortable, especially with the rain drenching their pelts. "Let's go then," he said, smiling back at them. Cathal started down the hill at a slow pace, jumping here and there to find stable ground that wouldn't slide under his paws. Rain sloshed around his legs, and mud began to spatter his already filthy coat, making him look a dark brown instead of the tan he normally wore. Once, he slipped, sliding a couple of feet down the hill and catching himself on a large boulder that protruded from the hill, taking a deep breath and looking down the rest of the slope where a large pool of water was gathering. He had no idea how deep it was, as it was colored brown from the debris it had picked up along the way. He could only hope that the current wasn't strong enough to pull their bodies into the river. He glanced back up at the three wolves that had agreed to go with him, thinking mostly of Chet. The male was the weakest in the pack and would have twice as much trouble as any of them if the water was tough to get through. "Wait for me," he commanded before leaping the rest of the way down and making a large splash in the water.

Muddy paws followed after Cathal as he began to lead the way back down the hill. His smile sent a rush of warmth through her, though she knew he was just doing that to keep them from being concerned or scared. She gave just a hint of a smile, letting him get the idea that she was ok. The fact of the matter was, getting up that hill was hard enough, she knw getting down for her would be very scary. Slowly, she began to make her way down, letting her paws glide shakily over the puddles, slightly loosing her grip and slipping here and there. At one point she lost her footing completely and fell on her side. Eye's wide with embarassment, she quickly scrambled back up to her paws, finally making her way to the same boulder Cathal seemed to have found his barrings on. She nodded at his orders to stay. Her heart lurched as he lunged into the water, sending droplets across her muzzle. Who knew how deep the water was, and now she just watched her mighty alpha go striaght into the unknown

|| Maleno ||

Obediently, Maleno began her careful trek down the hill full of traps. She could imagine herself or one of her fellow packmates slipping and tumbling down the hill, or falling into a sudden muddy hole and drowning. She pushed those thoughts away, not wanting nervousness to overcome her. Come on, I've done this tons of times. Its easy. She reassured herself, and dug her claws harder into the mud-covered ground. Maleno forced herself down the hill, keeping her face emotionless. Her eyes trained on the ground, watching for rocks or giant puddles to be avoided. Maleno's eyes flitted up when she heard a splash, and she watched the rest of Cathal leap into a large puddle of very murky water.
