Whilst the pup was distracted with the food. Nova took a moment to herself to gather her thoughts once more. Surely, Liberty would be back and before she knew it he would be announcing the new plan. Regardless of her being on his side or not - she still had to play the face of being the Beta the Alpha wanted her to be. The cold air breezed through her fur, brushing it back. Her eyes searched the other wolves who stood nearby. She wondered what they would think of Liberty if they saw the same darkness she did during their conversation. The she wolf felt a pang of worry for the pack , uncertain of what they would do.
It did not take Eros long to finish the slab of meat that the Beta provided to him a few minutes ago. Nova , now looking directly at Eros, smirked as she paced her way back over to him. Taking a mental note of how full his belly was. The curves at each end showed that he had eaten pretty much to the limit he could take. Round pup , would be his nickname at least in her mind.
Novaβs tail waved behind her , she felt pleased that the pup was full from all the food he ate. He should be - after all the berries and meat that filled his stomach for the evening. βGlad to hear that β she replied with glee. She pushed his swollen belly with her nose, feeling the tip of the firmness his dinner had caused. βYou should sleep through the night then.β the Beta teased the young wolf. Surely it was a joke that is beyond his years of understanding.
When Eros asked about Liberty, she wanted to change the subject. After the display of behavior he showed earlier, he was the last thing she wanted to talk about. Eros being a pup , she knew his curiosity was too great and that he would demand some sort of explanation eventually. Nova only needed a few seconds to calculate exactly what she would say to him. βHe had a lot on his mind and just needed to walk. I am pretty confident that he wonβt be a grump upon his return.β she teased. She raised her head to be leveled with her shoulders, as she looked the way that Blaze and Liberty had taken off too.
Certainly , they would be back sooner rather than later. That is - if they did not run into any issues. If she considered how most of their day went, the likelihood of them running into trouble was nearly tripled. The havoc causing pup was at home, but who knew what or who lounged on the outskirts of these two packs.
βWhat do you say we run around camp until bedtime ? A race if you're fast enough. β she offered. It was her attempt at keeping the pup busy until his βfatherβ returned to the pack . After all , if Eros was exhausted and asleep, that could buy Liberty some time before he had to answer the pupβs questions in the morning.

| Star Light | Pup | W/Kairo, Yomi , Kuroi | Present |
Kiyu dipped her head towards Kairo as he greeted her - upon her arrival to the den. βI am sorry about earlier. Scythe wanted to make sure you were safe.β she shared, her ears pinned against the top of her head. The wave of guilt crashed over her once again. It was hard for her to realize that it was not her fault that the mother wolf went berserk on the pups. All she wanted to do was soothe the mother wolf in knowing that her pups were alive and well. She did not think it through - or she would have known that they would have gotten in trouble.
βMy father sent me to the den - it wasnβt something he wanted me to see.β she explained herself. Louie would always protect Kiyu from things he did not want her to witness - especially if none of it pertained to her. Kiyu , sometimes, understood that he was trying to keep her focused on being a pup and training. The real adulthood of being a wolf would come soon enough as it was - might as well make due of the puphood she had left. Especially after the way her life had begun , starting with tragedy before she had the chance to make real memories with her family.
Kiyu had heard the very end of the previous conversation the pups were having. Something about adulthood that they were planning ahead for. She figured that it had nothing to do with her or Louie , so decided not to butt in and figure out what it was about.
Since the hunters had yet to arrive back at the pack , she figured that this was their normal time for dinner. β What were you three up to anyway ?β she asked.

| Star Light | Fighter | W/ Scythe, Dante, Manfred - Kikui | Concerned |
Louie stood in silence as the Beta began to speak on the life of the elder in front of them. As he told his story about Kikui , Louie listened in as much as he could, he had not been there long enough to see Kikui in his younger years tending to the pack.
He glanced over as the hunter was sent off to alert the Alpha of the loss of their pack mate. His eyes met hers for a moment as she offered a weak smile filled with sadness due to the moment of grievance. Louie dipped his head towards her, maybe heβd check in after theyβve taken care of the remains. Louie's train of thought was abruptly derailed as he was nearly snoot to snoot with the Beta , who fluffed about sending him to his early demise.
βI apologize, itβs not my intent to startle you. I figured I would come and assist in moving the remains if necessary," Louie shared with the beta and shortly after heard the growl from the Beta as he spoke the other wolfβs name. From the sounds of it, Dante was not pleased to see Manfred at the unfortunate occasion. After all , heβd sent the hunters out over an hour ago to get dinner for the pack and yet Manny was here with them.
As the moment grew silent again he backed a few paw steps away from the den to give Dante and Manfred a bit of space to settle their issues. βIβll give you a moment.β were the words he spoke to escape the obviously tense encounter with the others , before standing on all paws and moving further away from them, but still within an earshot if needed.

It seemed like an eternity waiting for the lead hunter to give her a command of some sort. She nodded her snoot in agreement that it would not take all of them to take the stag back to the rest of the pack . βI can scope out the hares while I wait for you all to return. Might be able to catch one. β the novice hunter shared with the group.
Athena looked between the males , before her focus settled on Cypher. She tilted her head in slight curiosity as he gasped. The she-wolf attempted to figure out if the wolf was okay. A few moments went by as he attempted to steady himself - attempted. In the blink of an eye the wolfβs body dropped before the group of hunters. She watched in a brief frozen state as one of the wolves quickly approached Cypher. βWe need to get him back.β someone spoke to them. Snapping Athena back to the reality of what was happening. She quickly moved towards Cypherβs limp body
Brown eyes laid upon the wolf whoβd fainted a few seconds ago. , βLetβs get him up.,β her nose scooped under Cypherβs neck - whilst the rest of her body lowered to evenly support him, it would probably take two of them to get him up and moving. She figured since she missed the majority of the hunt that she could assist them in carrying their lead back to the pack for medical assistance. Athenaβs eyes shot over to the other hunters - awaiting their assistance in carrying the larger wolf.
