Tender paws on a long, narrow path.

Hope you don't mind the sheer amount of PP in this. o3o Time to meet the little one. EDIT: Foward dated to the 12th of October

Teo had dragged him out by the ear, just about. The larger male hadn't been all that up to getting up early for some healthy excersize and some well-needed hunting. Winter would be coming soon and Teo knew full well that meant it was time to start stocking up on food and supplies. He wanted to be ready, especially since there were new pups in the pack. They'd need the extra nutrition to survive their first northern winter.

So he'd woken his mate up early, barking about how they had to go hunting. Next came Camilla, who groaned as any teenager would, but came willingly none-the-less. She understood her brother's troubled mind sometimes better than Alaki did, so when his ready-to-work expression was seen, she'd nodded and followed along without question.

That led them out into the forest in their lupus forms, Teo leading the way as a groggy Alaki followed along behind and a tinier Camilla flanked him on the right side. They were headed out towards the far borders, in hopes of catching a herd Teo had seen wandering that way a few days prior on one of his treks to the borders. If they were in the same spot as before, the trio would be upon them within the hour.

It's just this way. Teo glanced over his shoulder, addressing his mate. I noticed one of them was injured when I saw the herd the other day. Maybe he's still with them and we can catch ourselves an easy meal- He didn't get the chance to finish. Nearby, a howl, long and beckoning. Teo stopped in his tracks, Camilla halting beside him.

Shouldn't we go check that out? What if it's a joiner? The youngest of the three murmured, glancing up at her brother curiously for an answer. Teo turned to Alaki, the highest ranked of them, waiting for his decision. Well?

Eeer, was this to be re-dated to after Gemma lost the pups? Can't remember ^^; But yeah.. wasn't sure if Cam was to come too or not, so left that up to you aswell :3

Word Count → 363

No matter how much he protested and how much he complained, it was clear that his mate would never understand that he was not a morning wolf and never would be; regardless of the amount of times Teo woke him up in the morning, he would never get used to and be able to function properly at such an ungodly hour of the day. Voicing his dislike of being awoken he made sure his mate knew exactly how much he appreciated being kicked out of bed and made to move around so early in the day but still following behind the white one; too protective to let his mate wonder of on his own under the pretence of hunting. These days the white one seemed.. fragile, as if the wrong word may just push him over the edge and so he found himself tiptoeing about and being careful of what he did and said.

Before him, Teo was in his lupus form and the brat, copying her brother and moving in her lupus form. Alaki had chosen to stick to his optime form; he could carry more weapons and kills that way and quite frankly he had grown so accustomed to his taller form that dropping to four legs seemed strange to him these days. Wisps of cool morning wind held a cutting chill to them, his paws damp from the dew upon the ground, but nether the less he still dutifully followed the other, ready to assist in the random hunting trip... if he truly had to.

As the white one called back to him, his words were lost with a stray call for assistance along the border. Which was just his luck; with his rank, he felt completely obliged to answer the call, despite it being morning, despite his mate being present and a lot more 'despites', the only good thing about the call was that it would get him out of the hunting trip...Can't exactly ignore it, I'll go see what they want he paused as he turned to leave, You two wanna tag along? he asked, unsure if he really wanted them there or whether to leave them behind.

Foward-dated to the 12th. :3 Also, short post. x:

Teo hummed a moment, then glanced down at Camilla. The girl was almost a year old and she'd grown in leaps and bounds since she'd came to him. It seemed a good a time as any to teach her more tricks about greeting border visitors. He looked back to his mate and nodded. Mm. We'll come too. Camilla could use the experience and I haven't been by the borders lately.

Camilla seemed all too excited at this idea and quickly yipped her approval. Yes, it seemed like a fantastic idea.

C'mon. We can loop around the clearing up ahead. They sound like they're a few yards up from there. Teo seemed to want to lead the way this time, darting off with his tail held straight behind him (in perfect alignment with his back) and ears perked forward.

Camilla followed close behind, her own tail wagging wildly behind her, not yet old enough to start caring about ranks just yet.

WC:353+ Alaki is an idiot ¬.¬

An eyebrow lifted upwards at how eager the white one was to greet whomever was upon their borders and he simply stood in place as the child and his mate ran ahead of him, excitement seeming to fill them and he couldn't help but wonder that if Camilla wagged her tail any faster if she would actually throw herself off balance. Shaking his head slightly, he followed after them, picking up speed gradually and before long he was running just behind the pair. Once he'd past around the clearing, he headed of on his own, hoping the other two would follow him. Dark ears perked up he moved confidently in what he was sure the direction of the call had come from, his paws treading briefly upon the dirt ground leaving a soft trail behind him.

With each step forward he grew closer to the borders, the soft breeze carrying a mixture of scents; too many to distinguish which particular one belonged to whomever had called. But as the distance between himself and the border became smaller and smaller, a scent like a distant memory filled his nose, dread filling him as memories of the scents owner ran across his mind, like a nightmare that refused to leave him alone the woman has come back to destroy his life. Unknowingly he began to slow, his mind racing ahead trying to figure out why the dark coated female would come to Anathema now, what she could possibly want. So preoccupied with his own thought he forgot that he wasn't alone. Stepping forward his lips pulled back to reveal his teeth, a low grow trembling up his throat and ears pinned back to his head. Eyes flashed in every direction, trying to locate the female but she was either well hidden or she had already left, her scent was still strong though. A hand grabbed his Katanas handle, pulling the blade partially out of it's sheath.

Noir, come out come out wherever you are he sneered at the air, hoping the prideful woman would revel herself just to argue back and shout obscenities at him.
