Jace stared up at the dark sky with its twinkling stars and its milky fat moon, she was lost in her thoughts. She was a thoughtful woman, drawing energy from her ability to simply sit and reflect on her life, her actions and the actions of those around her, friend or foe alike. She remained in her statue like stare for a long while until the urge to run took hold of her. Shifting swiftly to her lupus form she set off at great speed wanting to expend some of the energy that had woken her up so early in the morning.


The grass and earth felt good against her paws, the wind blowing against her face made her feel alive and kicking. She charged through the undergrowth and bushes, leaping over those too small to crawl under and crawling under those too big to leap over. She dodged through the trees, making a game of it to see how quickly she could reach the next one and then the one after then. She changed direction and burst out of the forest into a meadow covered in snow. She raced around and round, she couldn't even feel the pain from her leg at all, making rings and patterns in the snow with her running path.


Eventually her running burned of the excess energy that had built up and she flopped down into the snow, rolling in the white flakes like a pup seeing its first winter. She snapped at the snow that got kicked up into the air a huge grin adorning her muzzle as she laughed and played in the snow, trying to reclaim some of the innocence and happiness that she and her sister had shared out on the arctic snow flats. As she thought about her lost twin, tears began to flow down her furred cheeks, the memory of her sisters blood stained torn body making her weep for what she had lost.

Snow. He was so sick of snow that the idea of just leaving the Valley and going south for the winter had crossed his mind more then once. Relaxing on sun warmed beaches and traveling with soft grass under foot would be more then a welcome retreat from this frozen tundra he now called home. With the white powder wrapping itself around his legs like a cold blanket, every step was a chore. Even with the size and strength of his larger Secui form he still had some troubles navigating through the still somewhat unfamiliar forests and fields of the Valley. Despite the difficulty, he felt it was still necessary for someone to patrol the land, especially with so many of the pack injured.

As the black wolf made his way across a shallow stream his face contorted slightly as the icy cold sting of the moving water washed over his paws. He didn't mind the time alone to reflect on the past few days since the blizzard has swept across the land. Kami had been a solitary being for a long time before being forced into joining a new pack, and the feelings he was experiencing were almost foreign to him by now. The feeling of responsibility for more then himself, to put himself at risk to help someone else. Or, to a lesser degree just feeling concern for someone elses well being. He couldn't help but think perhaps he wasn't made of stone after all.

The wolfess was not difficult to spot as she sat in the center of the barren field. His golden eyes surveyed the meadow and judging by the way the snow had been disturbed it was hard to tell exactly what she had been doing all the way out here on her own. She could have been hunting perhaps, but the last time he had seen Jace she was injured herself. Obviously if she had been able to create all this disorder in the snow banks the injury could not have been very severe, but he had not stuck around long enough to find out. Though as he approached the female something didn't seem quite right. While he made no effort to conceal the sound of his paws sinking into the frozen ground, the loud crunching of which would have alerted her to his presence. She seemed distract and distant enough to not notice him right away at least. " Jace." he stated the name bluntly as he walked up beside her, his eyes roaming over her body searching for injury. " Something wrong?" he asked as he finally was able to see her face, the damp stain of tears not difficult to find on her cheeks. Kami recognized that there was something wrong, but the ebony wolf would have to wait and see.

Temo Wolfe


Temo woke up with the sky half lighted with the sun soon to clear the horizon to start another day. He stood up and shook his fur out, the snow that had stuck to it flying. He glanced around, a bit disappointed to find that Jace wasn't there to greet him. His stomach growled at him as Temo sniffed around and found her trail where she took off, running through the snow. Thinking maybe she would like to go do some early morning hunting, he set off at a trot following her trail.

The trail wasn't hard to follow most of the time. After a while the trail led him to a clearing that contained 2 wolves sat in the middle. One he recognized as being Jace, but the other he did not know. Temo trotted up to them, his heart fell as thoughts raced through his head as he took in the messed up snow and wondered what happened.

He saw Jace was laid in the snow and crying , a flash of anger went through his eyes and his ears twitched as if to lay back, as he glanced at the other wolf and wondered if he did anything to hurt her. Temo glances over her and doesn't see any injuries, nor could he detect the scent of the other on her. Not sure what to do, he lays next to Jace and gently sets his head on her shoulder. "What's wrong, Jace?" he softly asked as he kept an eye on the other, his ears partially back at Jace's distress and as warning to the other.

my muse chose to die, i apologise for crappy post


She sat up as she heard the crunch of approaching footsteps and saw the dark male coming towards her. She had been so lost in her past that she had not noticed his appearance until he was almost upon her. She offered the larger black male a weary smile and a respectful nod although he was no higher in rank than herself,


""Jace"


She sighed and rubbed her wet cheeks against her paws, wincing as the bruise on her right one pained her.

"Nothing that can be fixed, just remembering old memories that are best forgotten." She smile cynically, her usual happy self buried under the sadness. Her ears perked as she heard the sounds of another approaching, she didn't need to turn to know it was Temo, her nose told her. She leaned back against his warm body as he laid next to her.


"Hey Temo, nothing much just remembering old times." Her sad eyes bored into his dark ones, he knew her story and about her familie's murder so he would understand why she was sad. Her head jerked up and she introduced Temo to Kami, who were both eyeing each other warily.

"Temo, this is Kami. Kami, Temo. Kami helped me drag Ookami out from the storm, you remember I told you about that after the pack meeting?" She wagged her tail a little trying to disperse the tension, both were her friends and she didn't want to see them at arms

It was obvious to the onyx wolf that Jace was not willing to share the secret behind her quickly fading tears. The girl was not comfortable with spilling the details of whatever it was that seemed to have consumed her mind so entirely as she sat cold in this empty place. The idea of which did strike Kami's heart a bit harsh, though very expectantly. Had he not helped them during the hellish blizzard that had consumed the Valley? Had he not brought back the supplies with Adonia that perhaps kept them alive when hunting had become almost impossible? The thought that perhaps he deserved a closer connection to the inner thoughts of the wolfess were quickly dashed while the soft sounds of footsteps echoed from behind them. The third wolf was someone who belonged in the Valley he was sure of that, yet here they stood, still barely more then just strangers in a unfamiliar place.

The golden eyes shifted as Temo approached them. The stare that was given to the newcomer was of someone who was uninterested and unimpressed. Kami had not yet met the wolf that was much more interested in the wolfess then anything else in the nearby landscape. The distrusting look in Temos eyes burned a hole into Kamis pride deeper then anything he could have predicted. It was infuriating, insulting, and damn near enough a reason to cause the scarred wolf to bare his teeth in aggression. Though for now he would have to control himself; Jace had impressed the black furred wolf a lot that cold winters day. Her ability to push on and not give up despite her injuries had earned the respect of Kami. Yet, this "Temo" deserved no such luxury and he would not be granted the privilege that came with such respect. As the the new male laid himself to rest alongside Jace the relationship between the two became quite clear to Kami, yet it did nothing to ease his mind. Perhaps Temo would have to be the target of Kamis frustrations. They had been building up over the past few days and a outlet would not be unwelcome, whether or not it was deserved.

" So where were you during the storm "Temo". . .?" Kamis voice said the name as though it was something to be mocked, his voice dripping with cynicism. The lessons he had learned since joining the pack about socializing with others were completely thrown out the window at this point. His normally calm and calculating demeanor replaced by the animal. The large Secui form Kami currently occupied would be towering over the prone bodies of his pack-mates if they had been in their normal Lupus forms. The narrowed yellow eyes focused on little but the insulting physical display that Temo was still sending as a clear warning towards him. Even the subtle attempts by Jace to ease the tension was proving quite futile at this point as Kami watched and waited for some sort of reply. His own tail twitching in irritation as it took every ounce of effort he could muster to remain even this calm.

Arrived on scene and is currently in lupus form.


Temo Wolfe


Temo relaxed some now that he understood where Jace's distress was coming from. Loss of close family, something that he had not experienced himself but knew that it was painful for the heart. At the introductions, He sat up and gave his full attention to the other, the hostility that he felt towards Kami left now that he realized it was unjust and unwarranted and now reciprocated back to him.

Temo pulled his emotions deep into himself, only a flash of sadness danced through his eyes as he realized that he had alienated someone in the pack that he and Jace just joined. He could see that the hostility that was directed to himself was intense, bordering on a fight. Almost anything he did could push the other wolf over the edge.

Temo's heart ached over the fact that he seemed unable to make friends and this would be no exception. He may not be able to make friends, but, he would at least try not to drive away the friends that Jace made. The only thing that mattered to him was her happiness. He bowed his head to Kami, "Hello. I seem to have given offense with my actions to you. For that, I apologize." Temo paused a moment as he considered the query that had been put to him. "I came from a region where the winters are much milder and I had difficulty coping with the wind driven extreme cold when I got caught out in the storm." He had no animosity to Kami, just sadness that he seems to unwittingly drive others from him. His only hope was that he didn't spoil the friendship Jace had made with Kami.

She nuzzled her head against his shoulder as he laid next to her, a contented rumble bubbling up her chest. Her ears perked and she watched the aggression and anger rise in Kami, she pulled her head away and looked at him hard. He was upset that she did not share her secrets with him, she had thought that he would applaud her words of not bothering with the past, he seemed a sensible one like that and she could easily imagine him having the same philosophy, obviously she had misjudged him.

His words towards Temo's absence angered her, the hybrid wolf had saved her life more times than she cared to remember, having his courage and fortitude questioned prodded at her heart in tender places that were not quite healed over.

She stood up onto her four paws, holding her injured one against her body and her hackles rose, her tail raising higher than both of theirs and her ears pulling fully forwards and took a step towards Kami, distancing herself from Temo and turned to both glare at Temo and then Kami in turn. Her gaze was hard and penetrating and she would not be surprised if both of them reacted badly to the challenge. She spoke and her voice was underlain with a growl and challenge,

"Both of you calm the fuck down. And you... " Her mismatched orbs turned to Kami her eyes meeting his. " Chill the hell out. If you're looking for a fight then at least approach it with honor instead of like a snake in the grass." She growled louder "If you're that angry then I will fight you myself." Never before had she shown such a brazen display of dominance to anyone, before her journey she would have never dared but now she was hardened against life.
