Survival Of the Packs (ACCEPTING)

[feyre.archeron]

Lena glanced at Arc "Is that what you believe as well" she asked.

Tenor tensed his muscles, attempting to stand his ground. He felt his legs stiffen as he struggled to buck her off, his jaws meeting her leg.

Damon smiled at it son, ignoring his disappointment. He knew what it was like to hunt this early in spring. Things lost weight over the winter. It was hard to find a plump rabbit.

Moon watched him closely, noting the way his body relaxed. She dodged out of the way seconds before he could head-butt her and snarled, letting her own body relax more fluidly.

Trouble nodded and looked to Leon "Where is our den?" she asked, moving closer to Leon. Her body was tense and stressed, tired from all that had happened. The sun would set in a few hours, she wanted to lay down. Curl up with her brother, and sleep.

"Who do you have in mind?" she asked, smirking. She crawled off him, laying herself down beside him. The day had been long and she was ready to relax.

Jinx snarled slightly. "I just don't understand. He knows how much I dislike her!" she barked looking at Drus with a confused sparkle in her eyes.

Jace glanced away "You know who their mother is? Ridley... the wolf killer. In some ways... they are better than us." he remarked, turning away again, collapsing on the den floor, the cool of the dirt sinking into his fur.

Mercy nodded "I know. And that what makes you an amazing Alpha. The other part I can handle. I'm more weary than you are." she remarked, smiling gently. She turned to him and licked his muzzle, flicking him with her tail invitingly, wondering if he would take the invitation.

['pyrrhic]

"Then tell him that they can not stay, if it hurts you that much." She said politely, not losing her temper at the snarl. She looked Jinx in the eye "If he knows, then why did he bring them? Why don't you tell him that he can not keep them here?" She asked, her ears flicking forward and her eyebrows coming together.

[Fresh~~]

Apollo smiled walking right by Bane's left flank."so.....do you have a mate?....n-not that i-i....i was just asking......seeing if i had to worry about someone else....." she mumbled feeling her face become red from embarrassment.

Arcaniss (Alpha of Caster Pack)

"Talia's always been a strong fighter, so has Damon," Arcaniss pointed out, "They're more likely to fight than Dereth, not to mention Damon was already willing to trust us with one of their pups. They could be our best shot for an ally."

Ace (Patrol of Caster Pack)

ace gave a growl as she fell off Tenor with her leg caught. She tried to push him over with her weight.

Zeal (Hunter of Caster Pack)

Zeal's stumbled when he missed, taking a moment to regain his balance and change direction from his momentum. His tail wagged lightly as he looked back over at Moon.

Talia (Alpha of River Pack)

Talia moved quickly and quietly through the forest, despite being a fighter by nature she was amazingly light on her paws, barely making any noises as she ran. She couldn't smell any prey and it was starting to worry her, thus she changed direction heading for fresh water thinking it would be her best shot.

Bane (Medic of River Pack)

Bane gave a light chuckle and shook his head, "Nope, all I really have is Talia and by extension her pups and mate as family but not my own. Not exactly well, mate material to most."

Phantom (Hunter of River Pack)

Phantom jumped forward, the rabbit barely making two steps before he was on top of it. Annoyance flashed across Phantom's face when the rabbit cried out. He knew that others would be alerted to danger now as he finished it off and looked at Damon.

Arcath (Hunter of Midnight Pack)

"River Pack is most likely to attack first. Falcon tends to be more calm and Caster, well they might be defensive but they're not nearly as aggressive as River. We could manipulate the packs if we're careful. If we got the right scents and used them," Arcath explained, "turn the other packs against each other."

Dereth (Alpha of Falcon Pack)

Dereth looked out of the den for a moment longer, watching the camp for a bit. "A lot of pups in the camp... None of them alpha pups. Course considering everything kind of makes sense." He looked at Mercy though he seemed lost in his thoughts.

Leviricus (Beta of Falcon Pack)

Lev nodded to his den first, "Over there is the one I share with Jinx but given the circumstance..." He looked around and nodded to the dens for hunters and patrols, "Those might be a better place to stay for now. Until things calm down."

Hawk (Pup Sitter of Falcon Pack)

"And are you forgetting who our mother is? They might be the pups of Ridley but need I point out that they're not with her. They came here. They knew being with our Dad was a better choice," Hawk pointed out simple, sitting down a short distance from his brother, "We've always known Dad was the better choice and our Mom probably has shown us more than theirs has. We have the advantage here, not them."

[Fresh~~]

"i have heard that before....b-but about myself. when i was a pup i was made fun of for my coat....and most still say it but it doesn't bother me anymore.last year my mate left me from seeing my coat realizing it wasn't mud or the dark dirt.....though i am sorry for blabbing about this to you....you probably wouldn't care to hear it....sorry" Apollo mumbled a bit looking to the side keeping her eyes on the dirt.

Fang watched as Talia left the pack camp.he rolled his eyes walking to the den he was put in,slowly striding along the dirt.he lay down at the opening looking out and staring at the entrance."alone....again.....great" he mumbled.

[feyre.archeron]

Lena looked to Carter "Arc, stay here with the pups, Carter.." she started, glancing over towards Aki "And Aki.. I need you both to come with me" she barked, glancing at Arc with a sweet smile.

Tenor held his ground, holding on to her paw, trying to get his paws on her stomach to hold her down.

Damon smiled "Very good. Why don't you dig it a small hole and hide it there. See if you can find something larger." he remarked, hoping there would be a lone elk in the area.

Moon smirked her ears flicking forward. Her tail wagged in unison with his, her eyes sparkling something close to affection but hidden in her playful mood. Something she rarely showed.

Trouble shot him a curious look then trotted over, her mind suddenly hazed over with distrust and anger. She looked at Leon, her hard eyes softening. As they walked away, again she looked to him "I'm not sure about how I feel about sharing a den with his mate." she remarked, glancing down. She suddenly wondered what her mother and Rox were doing without her and Leon. Had she really made the right choice? At least they had people who loved them in her old pack. Did Lev even love them? She looked back towards him, her eyes meeting his.

Haedi smiled viciously "I like the way you think." she remarked. She cocked her head to one side, looking at him with curiosity.

Jinx thought for a moment. It wouldn't be that hard to tell him... but she knew the pups would be better in her pack, less trouble. Less chance that they would end up copies of their mother. She shook her head at the she wolf "I won't. They are less of a threat here, in fact probably more of a protection." she barked, glancing down.

Jace glanced at his brother "I could chase them out of the territory." he remarked, his mind suddenly running crazy. He knew it was wrong to think like this but they had always been their fathers only pups and now... here were these two pups who had no connection except blood. Why did they choose this territory? Why now?

Mercy scooted closer "Why does that make since?" she asked softly, then thought about it "We could... have alpha pups." she remarked softly, dropping her head. She may be alpha be he was still above her.

['pyrrhic]

"So let them stay, stop worrying so much." Drus stated " They could become your family you know, your lucky to have someone who likes you... And pups! So don't be so hard on them." She said, smiling. Her ears adjusted to the wind and she sniffed the air. Her tail was still down and her fur was standing slick to her back.

[feyre.archeron]

Jinx nodded "I guess you're right. Come on, we should get back to camp. I doubt our borders will be breached if they haven't been already." She remarked, not feeling up to staying around . She glanced at Drus questioningly

['pyrrhic]

"True." She stated and walked back to camp with Jinx. She sighed and looked around at the trees. More of a calm sigh and a statement sigh.
