Rolling over in bed he felt for Garnets warm body and grabbed only air. She had not been in when he had fallen asleep but she was always back before day break. Sitting up a large yawn pulled at his jaw muscles. It was definitely time for breakfast! Standing up he lazily dragged his body to a dresser and pulled out his knife belt, then headed down the stairs out the door. The coal giant found that breakfast was always better served chilled. The morning air was cool to his ever shedding thick coat. Over the past week the once thick coat had turned into patches of a thin prickly coat. Jazper always liked they way his summer coat looked. While his winter fur was puffy and thick his summer dressing was a soft thin layer, almost looking like tiny needles to the eyes. However, there was still a need for some warmth yet.
At he neared the boarder he let out another yawn. It seemed he was once more the first one to to a circle check of the pack. It was a boring task and nothing ever came up but, unfortunately, it had to be done. So the midnight male started off at a slow jogged pace. His mind was filled with thoughts of food and what type of prey he would enjoy as he searched for paw prints in the snow. Finally, a path of prints caused him to slow to a stop. Wolf? He thought to himself. They didn't smell like Crimson Dreams, there scent had a taste that was esoteric to the pack members. It wasn't uncommon for a loner to pass a land and keep going but Jazper followed the prints to ease his mind. This was not the case as he soon caught the subtle scent of Mati in the air. More urgently he started off sprinting and following the pup's scent. Why was she even out so close to the boarders at this time?!
A cry reached his ears as he bolted closer and closer to the now two scents mixing and drew his knife. With a final leap he found his target, a grey wolf with Naniko's daughter grabbed by the neck, obviously in a violent way. Instantly he flung himself at the aggressor with all his might, and grabbing Mati as he rolled in the snow to safety, clenching her in his powerful arms. "Mati, Mati are you alright?" He questioned holding her up for inspection all the while keeping his gold eyes wandering over to the stranger.
