Magnolia watched the woman before her as she spoke, even more irritation bubbling up in her gray throat. But when the word sinner was spoken in her direction, and Salsola's direction, the Family member lost it. "Excuse me?" She spat out as rudely as the other woman had. "Sinners who will kill you on the spot for saying that live that way," She snarled angrily, her blood boiling. "We do not like outsiders. You could be a little more grateful that it was I who found you, and not anybody else. Other members would not be so kind to spare your pathetic life."
Maggie stared at the other woman who had clearly been through a lifetime of strife. She was skinny, her fur was ragged and dull, and for a moment she almost felt pity for the stranger. She was young, too, just a few months older than herself. Maggie wanted to be kind to her, but the other stranger wasn't exactly making it easy. She clearly felt very high and mighty and that irritated the fair-haired wolf. She should understand her place in life as a loner, but she didn't show it. With a little less anger lacing her voice, Maggie crouched to get down on the other woman's level. "If you value your life, turn around. There are countless other packs south of here. Head there if you want a home and get the hell away from here." Maggie's eyes did not betray her voice. She still carried a sharp glare that Maggie focused right on the other woman's eyes, point blank.
