The sun sat low in the sky as a loner approched the border. His sides heaved from running for endless hours and his muscles ached, but he didn't show any signs of being quick to tire, since he was not. Once Stryker realized he'd reached his destination he let out a single long howl, hoping to draw the attention of the pack. He knew he wasn't allowed to cross into their territory, so he stood patiently, trying not to look to self assure, which he was. Prideful and selfassure, yet that also made him determined and prepared for anything.
Fire raged up Stryker's leg as he tried to set down his injured paw. The running had angered it even more, although he wouldn't show weakness and didn't even let out a whine when he shifted an equal weight amung all his paws, even the injured one. Inpatiently he shook his coat. An impulse to run, knowing being a loner in the open wasn't safe, over came him and he squeezed his eyes shut for a second, hoping a pack member would arrive soon.
