- To say that things were off bad was the understatement of the century.
Quietly, a pure ebony brute as dark as the depths of the underworld itself stalked angrily through the rapidly darkening forest. Yet his steps, usually as silent as a ghosts and as calculated as a foxes, were literally echoing throughout the entire immediate vicinity. His scarred nose twitched as frenetically as a rabbit's, and through his body language and his hypnotically single-eyed, death-like stare swinging to and fro, one thing was made clear. He was here for food, one of the most basic essences of life. As his lengthy frame slipped through the dying rays of sunlight pouring through the dense pine trees all around, another thing became painfully clear. He was being very, very sloppy, which wasn't good at all. His mind nor soul wasn't into the hunt as it should've been; a very unfortunate thing, to say the least. But had any other soul been in his his paws? They probably would've given up immediately. Regardless, that didn't change the unfortunate circumstances. His mind couldn't help but drift to the unfortunate event that had occurred that morning, that still haunted him - him, of all souls! - now. Aptly put, Amelia had had a meltdown. Amaro and Alcatraz, per usual, were have a "debate" (more like Alcatraz complaining and Amaro doing his best not to teach him etiquette the way he'd been taught) when Amelia had burst out, crying, frightened. We're in the territory of two packs, yet we haven't either one. I know that's because we're different. Will we ever be accepted?
And for some reason, that troubled him. It troubled him deeply, more than he would ever fathom, even in his long existence. Would that be his downfall? Allowing himself, just one more time, to be to attached to another mortal and worrying for her sanity and desires? Ah Reaper, old boy, haven't you grown soft? A cold smirk, which appeared to be more of a lustful sneer took a hold of his graying muzzle. Lupus would pay dearly for toying with him in the next life - he'd be certain of that. Finally regaining a bit of composure, the ebony wolf lowered himself and became practically invisible against the darkness of the surrounding territory. Inhaling deeply, a stale trail that no doubt led to a rabbit's den entered his lungs. Yet something wasn't right. He'd learned to trust his instincts over time, and he felt something. Someone was there. Someone that knew he was there, and was probably preparing to strike. And given the fact he hadn't seen another loner in nearly three sunsets, he knew. It was time to haul rump outta there - he wasn't looking for a fight. But just as he stood to flee, his powerful frame tensing once more, he heard it. "Aaaaammmaarrroo!" Amelia, and he knew he heard Alcatraz shushing her right thereafter. What in the name of Lupus and hell where they doing here? Hadn't he specifically told them to remain in the den and be silent during his hunting trips?! Amaro stood up so slowly but whirled so fast the leaves around him stirred. That single amber eye he possessed blazed with so much barely withheld rage that Alcatraz and Amelia stopped dead in their tracks. That deep, guttural voice of his that always sounded like a snarl - it now sounded like a roar from the deepest cavern - erupted from his maw. "What did I-" and then it happened so fast it was nearly surreal.
He was hit, and it felt like a bull moose had ran through him. Right in his right foreleg that he had once busted falling down a cliff. Another unfortunate story for another day. He hit the ground hard, leaves and grime cascading about him as his 140 pound frame thudded against the unforgiving earth. The menacing snarl reached his ears mere moments after the hit, and before he could gasp for air or even finish his sentence, his maw was sealed shut by another salivating canine's fangs. He just had one thought-
Here we go again. His silvery muzzle, thankfully, was released after a second, allowing him a breath of fresh air without inhaling another wolves' horrific breath. Amaro was then able to take in his attacker - a sinewy, scarred ebony female that was currently barking in his face in an authoritative tone. However, the ebony brute honestly had to suppress laughter, for in the background his two petrified pups stood their, open-mawed in horror as she snarled in his face. "who are you? You have crossed the territory of salem; you are trespassers!" Hilariously enough, neither one of the pups spoke. Apparently his teachings sunk in when it truly mattered, or they were scared stupid. Regardless, it worked Amaro's benefit - at least excessive information giveup wasn't something he had to worry about. Shaking off his dizziness, Amaro fixated his single amber orb upon the wolf perched upon him. Taking the few seconds he had, he began to evaluate his opponent. Immediately Amaro could tell she was no pushover. His attacker was a fae. Muscular she was, and very lean. In all honesty, she was actually quite beautiful, regardless of the numerous scars that decorated her, that certainly showed she had faced a duel many a time and won. Her fearlessness and authority showed she wasn't frightened or uncomfortable in the slightest, and Lupus knew why. She was in her element - her homeland, for crying out loud - doing what she did best; killing. Facing down a very old codger and some pups no less.
Ahhh. But that was were the fun began. She is not wary - she feels as though by pinning me it is over, for the pups are helpless and I have been sufficiently neutralized. But oh, young fae, you should watch yourself. Aren't you hungry for some blood, yes? Hmmm.. a thrill killer, aren't you? I can tell by the way your claws are flexing into my shoulders.. your just ready to watch the light of life die out in my eyes. I'm sorry to say that today I'll be disappointing you, like many others before you. Regardless, Amaro knew he had to act - quickly. Reinforcements would come, for he knew that this pack was much more disciplined and ferocious than the other one across the forest. But yet, he didn't appear worry. Instead, he did was he always did. He smiled that sickeningly terrifying, cunning silvery smile. "My my my, such a rude little girl. You know, it's more cordial and customary to introduce yourself and then state your rank rather so than flattening a poor soul. Can't we do this the civilized way and spare some pain, yes?" First, be polite - as he could be in this situation, anyway. Barter. A fight would do no good to him in this state. Yet, if she rejected. He couldn't help but feel a surge of adrenaline rush through his bones. Then it's time for the Reaper to reap what he sowed.

- He was tired of Amaro and his disgusting dietary habits. He was tired of not knowing of where his next meal was coming from. He was tired of not knowing where he was going to lay his head. He was tired of not having any friends. He was tired of being tired, and he darn sure was tired of his annoying sister. "Why are you always so rude to Amaro, Alcatraz? He feeds us, groomed us, keeps us alive and does everything he can to ensure that we have a chance in this world! Why do you always have to irritate him? You already know he has enough going on without you causing more for him!" There she was. Her long, butterfly like lashes fluttering angrily as she blinked rapidly - a sign she was really anger, woohoo - and her rather dainty muzzle curled up angrily. If only you saw what he did, sister, then you'd understand. But for now, I'll protect you.
"Look, I'm sorry, okay? When he comes home I'll apologize to him," Alcatraz grunted tiredly, barely keeping his amber eyes from rolling up into his head. But, as he suspected, that wasn't enough for Amelia, oh no. "Let's go find him!" "What?! Do you have fleas for brains? I'm not going after him! Its getting dark and I don't want to deal with him-" "Then your not sorry." What was wrong with his sister?! Common sense should've told her this wasn't a good idea! Alcatraz wish he knew, for the life of him, why she did the stupid stuff that she did. But before he could so much as protest, she darted out their makeshift den into the forest, surprisingly quick for someone missing a foot. And he chased her. He barked, howled and just about alerted the whole forest to their presence. But she didn't stop. And she hollered for him, too. "Aaaamaaaaarrrro!" And he cringed. Deep down he cringed, and not out of anger or hatred. Out of pure fear. What would Amaro do to him due to his inability to stop his disabled sister? As he caught up to his aforementioned, he saw that single eye blazing with rage. It consumed his vision, and his courage. That single, evil, hated eye that had haunted him his entire existence. Oh god, he was in so much trouble-
BAM! It happened so fast. Amelia yelped, and Alcatraz darn near fell on his bosom. A powerful, mean-looking fae was glaring at them from atop Amaro, whom suddenly seemed as stunned and as powerless as a butterfly. She barked angrily at them, but Alcatraz didn't even process what she was saying. He was that terrified. He couldn't run. He couldn't breathe.
He was truly paralyzed with fear. They were so dead if this fae could defeat Amaro with one simple blow.

- What was wrong with her brother? Why did he have to be so rude and ungrateful? Amelia wish she knew. Oh god, she wish she knew. He curled around us on cold winter nights and told us stories when our hopes were low. He groomed are filthy pelts and tended our wounds when we tripped and fell - he filled our snarling bellies when we were helpless to do so. And yet all Alcatraz can do is whine and complain about how much he hates him. What did Amaro ever do to invoke his rage? Or is my brother just delusional and greedy? Those were the thoughts that raced through Amelia's mind as she swiftly dodged every obstacle in her path on her way to Amaro, her adoptive father. She knew she'd be in trouble, but Amelia just wanted comfort and away from her brother. That, and she had never been the smartest under pressure. Certainly Amaro would understand, just this once? "Amaaaarrro!" Guess not. That look made her blood run cold. The fury swimming beneath the surface shouldn't have been possible from a mere mortal. Maybe she hadn't made the smartest decision. Amelia tried to find words to describe her pain, but before she could, BAM! He was on the leafy ground, and there was the scariest looking wolf she had ever seen in her entire life perched upon him, snarling in her face, demanding to know who she was and what she was doing. D-don't panic Amelia... The young fae tried to muster courage and whimper, "please don't hurt us" but her vocal cords failed. Not a single word escaped. She could only stare in horror as Amaro laid upon the ground, certainly powerless to do anything.
