Atlas woke up shortly after the sun shone over the treetops and onto his black pelt. Standing up he rolled his shoulders and wandered down to the river. Slowly lowering his muzzle and drinking he heard the distant howl of the Alpha Mavis of the nearby pack. Yawning Atlas lifted his muzzle from the water and beginning to walk down the river shore, his golden eyes scanned around him. He kept his head high and his senses on high alert, most wolves he got along with but everyone is different, he wasn't feeling social this morning and would've preferred if other lone wolves or just pack wolves/dogs stayed away from him. He was going to go hunt so he picked up his pace and looked around for a rabbit or pheasant of some sorts to eat.

Neith stirred quietly in her sleep only to be awoken from her nightmares from Mavis howl. Slowly opening her pale green eyes she stood up and slowly stretched her muscular figure. Grunting as some pops here and there rang through her ears Neith gave a heavy sigh and stalked out of her den. Looking for the cream colored fae, Neith spotted her best friend and gave her a small smile of good morning. Feeling sleepy and not wanting to walk all the way over there Neith strolled over into the shade and flopped onto the dirt right there. A second heavy sigh escaped her and she placed her muzzle on top of her paws and flicked her ears and more wolves began to stir around her. Neith wasn't talkative in the morning unless spoken too but most knew to stay away from his hellish fae in the first place.

xxmavis spotted her friend in the crowed of wolves. it was pretty easy to see her black pelt, and smiling back at her. mavis the approached her. most wolves in the back know better than to approach neith, especially in the mornings, but mavis was confident. netih loves mavis too much and the other way around. they were the best of friends, and couldn't stay angry at each other long. "good morning!" she greeted her, then adding a bit more quietly, "still more nightmares?" she asked cautiously.

xxashanti nodded, finished her prey, and walked to the camp entrance, then waiting. why was zeikiel so determined to her that copper freak to hunt? she knew mavis would never make him do something he didn't want to, unless provoked. mavis was almost as scary as neith when angry. dare she say, a bit scarier. "let's just leave!" ashanti snapped at the black maned wolf, getting quite irritated. it was bad enough to be interrupted while eating and hunting with the spider wolf, but with the copper brat? even worse.

xx"well I'm not going!" summit snapped, limping slightly in a darker area of the omega's den. why was he such a pain? summit hated it. besides, why would he want to be friends with him? he was too pathetic and weak. a hunter? pfft. hunters are weak.

xxarturia woke up and walked out of her house from the doggy door, then looking around as the sun shone. it was a beautiful day, lovely to walk around the forest if her humans let her. then walking back inside, she sniffed around, realizing she was alone. her humans must of left early again. shrugging, she walked over to her doggy bowl to see that her humans kindly left a delicious breakfast for her when she awoke. it was bacon bits and kibble! today must be special if she got bacon bits! happily eating, she thought. she didn't remember anything special. . . shrugging, she continued to eat.

The sound of someone coming towards her caught her attention. Catching the scent of the Alpha she slowly raised and stood back up and looked at her friend. Neith was quite a bit larger than Mavis and she bowed her head in respect her her friend. "Morning Mavis," she said calmly. Neith was well mannered around Mavis cause one they were best friends and two she was the Alpha. Neith's eyes slowly moved away from Mavis' gaze when she asked about her nightmares. Mavis knew Neith well enough that Neith suffered from terrible nightmares on a frequent basis. "Yeah..." it was the same one every night. The same place and the same time. It freaked her out, but she was still trying to figure out why this memory haunted her. It happened too long ago for her to even remember it. She guessed that it was just one of the experiences that would never be forgotten and that she'd have to deal with that pain, until the day she goes.

Theres a sharp intake of breath from the tall male, an-

"Look, Summit. Dont you want to get out of this stu-

Yennifer. "We cant make him go with us, and Asha-

DRAUGUR let out a soft sigh before getting to his small
Paws. He raised one and examined it un-enthusiastically
Before placing it softly back onto the ground. His blue
Eyes then. Made their way out of the den and into camp
Where he gave another sigh before moving out into the clearing. He gazed around one last time before forcing
His legs to go further and into a secluded spot in camp,
Only to lay down and place his head between his paws.
His small thin body gave a shiver as he closed his eyes
Trying to go back to the dream he had had earlier.

❅Castiel❅
Ranks❅Fighter Gender❅Male Mood❅Hungry Tagged❅N/A

CASTIEL gave a soft grunt as his front paws gave a jolt
From his dream before his eyes cracked open with a
Soft growl before realising where he was. He gave a
Sigh before shaking his head "Ugh." He huffed to
Himself before getting to his paws. There hadn't
Been much action around here, at least not for the
Fighters anyway. He pushed the thought out of his
Mind before placing a black paw outside of the
Den and testing the heat. Finding it sufficient for his
Black fur he stepped out and gazed around for a spot
To lay down. That was when his stomach gave a loud
Growl from beneath him. He placed his tail over
His belly in embarrassment before heading to
The prey pile.

DUCHESS gave a loud sigh, how has nobody noticed
Her yet?! She had been up for ages yet they had failed
To notice her. She gave another sigh before getting
Impatiently to her paws and moving to the middle
Of the clearing in the camp before dramatically
Falling to the ground with a sigh, placing a paw over
Her eyes and giving a loud, attention-seeking sigh
For the third time. Somebody had to notice her now!

DEMONIA had been up since dawn and had been hunting
Since a few hours before even
Though she wasn't really hunting. She had been laying
Dangerous close to a cliff, the wind pushing through
Her fur as she lay. She had caught a few pieces of
Prey on the way. A few being a rabbit and a couple
Mice.

☠Hannibal☠
Rank☠Fighter Gender☠Male Mood☠Neutral Tagged☠N/A

HANNIBAL was laying in the fighters den. Mostly bored
Out of his mind. The territory, and in result, the camp.
Well, that was some of it. There may very well have been
Trouble within the scent markers of Mavis and he may
Not have been notified as he refused to leave the territory
For anything less than 'a seven' as he called it. That may have been the reason he never got called for anything
Unless really important. He gave a shrug and exited the
Fighters den before looking around, his face as blank
As camp. There seemed to be nobody there except a
Bored looking Draugur and a starving looking Castiel.

RAVEN had made a makeshift den from and old
Badger den. It was rather narrow, being that she
Could barely get her top half inside, it worked. It
Sheltered her from the rain and whatnot. She gave
A yawn before finally wriggling her way out and into
The sun that had pushed its way through the trees
Thin branches. She took her back leg and dusted
The mud from her belly and torso back onto the
Ground. Her eyes glanced about for any signs of
Recent prey that she could snatch before foxes and
Sometimes, though rarely, something else like an eagle
Or other, snatches it away.

xxmavis looked worried. looking around again, knowing neith wanted it to be kept quiet.
"maybe we should ask our shaman. . ." mavis replied, sitting down, still concerned. mavis wants the best for neith, and if neith was more experienced, she would of made neith beta. if neith was having nightmares that deprived her best friend and one of her best fighters of sleep, then it must be cured as soon as possible. "I know you want to keep it a secret and tough it out like you do with almost everything else, but you're one of my best fighters, and I want you to be happy and healthy," mavis continued, giving the black wolf a gentle lick on the shoulder.

xxashanti growled stomping off. if zeikiel, summit, and yennefer weren't coming, she'd unt for the pack herself. grumbling, she walked away from the pack's camp, a decent length, then sniffing. a herd of elk! she was hunting alone, so it'd be harder. . . but if she managed to chase a baby or one away, she'd get a good meal for the pack! and maybe even rewarded! getting excited from the thought, ashanti leapt forward, attacking the elk herd. one of the males tried to attack,
but she swiftly dodged and the male ended up hitting a female, and that female's mate attacked the male. that was easier than she expected! noticing a slower elk, it looked like she was either very fat, or giving birth to a baby elk. if she let that female live,
then more prey. she attacked a female who was running away, and ashanti chased this elk for awhile, and then finally, she clawed it's hind left leg, slowing the female down. snarling with pleasure and happiness, ashanti leapt and took down the female elk. smiling, she looked around, not realizing where she was. sniffing around, she realized she wasn't too far away. picked up the elk,
she slowly dragged it back.

Her eyes met the alpha's for a brief moment as she studied hers. Seeing the worry and seeing she did want to help Neith gave a heavy sigh and turned away. Thinking for a few quiet moments, and thought to herself what could happen if she were to 'expose' herself for having terrible nightmares and sometimes night terrors. one of the fighters suffering nightmares? Pfft! Pathetic... she cringed at that thought, they endure more gore than any of us do in the pack. Can it will ya! she agreed with that and then inhaled one seven counts and exhaled when she got to eleven. Hearing her say she was one of her best fighters, Neith just chuckled. "I am your best fighter and you know it, Mavis..." a small half smile lined her muzzle before continuing. "I'll see the shaman if it makes you happy. I'll get help but please remember I'm not a happy wolf." She wanted to give her friend some comfort so she could focus more on the pack, rather just one disposable mutt. "With that decided..." she groaned stretching one last time, "Anything you want me to do this morning?" the black pelted fae asked the orange alpha.

"I'm pretty sure I saw a bear near our most precious hunting grounds. if we're lucky, she won't have cubs, but I need you and a few other good fighters to chase them out." she informed her. nodding west, which was the direction mavis saw the bear herself. "tell the shaman that I said that no can know. I know you'd prefer to keep your reputation, and I understand that, but I just want you to have the full extend of energy you can get." mavis said, brushing against her black-furred friend and then walking past her to get a quick bite of food.

"Fine." He replied, his voice high and tight, so as

indent Light streamed in through the small cave, illuminating the stark, cold grey walls. Tiny bits of soggy moss grew in between the contours of the rock, causing droplets to run down and stain the walls. The light streaming in roused the dark-furred she-wolf, a soft grunt breaking the thin veil of silence that settled upon the land. Heaving herself up on her paws, Aella smoothed down a few stray tufts of fur on her shoulder before padding out of the den. Wincing inwardly as her pale blue eyes took their time to adjust to the light, her gaze subconsciously flicked towards the distant horizon. As usual, her thoughts had went back to Ember Skies. It had been . . . what, how many days? Weeks? Weeks since she last visited her allies? A prick of guilt stabbed through her, but was quickly replaced by a small note of bitterness. While perhaps Ember Skies was getting along swimmingly, drought had struck the land that she had learned to call 'home.' Though as autumn crept around the corner and the whole lack-of-water situation seemed to have died down a bit, prey numbers had depleted slowly. Not to mention, her fur had become matted and lacked the shine of a healthy canine, and headaches and weakness struck her often.

indent At those thoughts, guilt plagued her mind again, causing a frustrated growl to emit from her maw. Alas, the female had chose this life for herself. Closing her eyes, images flooded her mind. First of her allies, the Pack of the Ember Skies, and the land they inhabited. Faces flashed through her head. Soon, they were replaced by her native pack, her blood kin. In particular the Pack of the Burning Forests. Her Alpha. Her parents, Ayla and Aaden. Memories of the war that tore away the lives of her friends, kin and pack. Her muscles tensed beneath her pelt, flexing her blunt claws into the hardened Earth. A prick of anger ate away at the guilt. Yet another reminder her allies were also the murderers of her family. Of her home. As the rage faded away, Aella sighed. These mixed feelings were the result why she could never fully devote to Ember Skies. Despite the kindness and generosity they have offered her, she knew that she would always be fiercely independent and grudging. But she was trying to learn how to put the past behind her and open up more. Her 'smart mouth' was simply her defense mechanism put in place to keep herself from getting hurt . . . from whatever. Whoever. She would not hesitate to ditch her alliance in order to survive. Survival of the fittest. The weak always die out.

indent Quickly shaking out her pelt to snap off her train of thought, the she-wolf set out towards where she deemed Ember Skies territory, her paws steadily hitting the ground at a brisk pace. The trek was around thirty minutes if she kept up at this pace. Taking time to focus on her surroundings, she felt a strange calm wash over her. Mentally, she reviewed the route that she normally took in order to find Mavis's Pack. As if on time, the sound of rushing water filled the air -- a river -- causing Aella to cringe inwardly. Though she was relieved the effects of the drought were slowly wearing away, she would have to tread through the shallow waters. Cautiously putting her paws in, the current surprised her a little, feeling it tug at her paws at threaten to throw off her balance. Because the river was shallow and generally calm, she was able to tread through it. She grunted her displeasure, getting out as soon as possible and shaking off the stray droplets.

--- laxi got lazy, so timeskip i guess? (^: ---

indent By the time the black-furred female reached Ember Skies territory, her paws were aching slightly, a reminder yet again of how far she lived away. Sucking it up, she hesitated at the border, slightly shaken up by the strong pack scent she was not used to. "What the hell do I do, just waltz in?" she thought. She was their ally, right? Surely nobody would mind if she came in? Sighing, she stepped over the boarder, hesitantly padding in camp. Sets of eyes swiveled towards her direction, and Aella held her head up higher. She was Ember Skies's ally, not some rogue overstepping the line.
