One step forward; two steps back

[Keyara]

The sun shone for onceI thought happily. I walked along the side of the icy lake sniffing the air. The sun gleamed in the sky, melting the snow clumps off my fur. I ran quickly across the ice, only to stop quickly leaving claw marks. What is that... strange smell? I raised my muzzle and inhaled deeply. There was a very odd smell. It almost smelled like... pup? It was coming from just aways across the ice, over the small hill. What should I do? My body shook, scared. I put my head down in shame. What kind of Alpha is afraid of a pup? Maybe its a trap... but there was only one way to really find out. I walked toward the smell, tail high in the air. Reaching the top of the small snow hill, I peered down. I saw a little, Gray blob trying to climb the hill. Stupid squirrel Shaking my head with disgust I walked casually down the hill towards it. As I got closer I noticed that it wasn't a squirrel, but a real live Timber Wolf pup!
"Hello pup. What brings you here?" she asked in a soothing tone trying not to scare the poor little thing. I wonder where it's parents are? Must of wandered off or something.

[Sunnie]

"Hello pup. What brings you here?" a booming voice rang out, just in front of her.
"OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" she screamed , the voice scaring her. Heart still racing , she turned to see a white she-wolf standing at the bottom of the hill, a amused look on her face. "imm.. imm sorry" Sunnie apologized. "Who are you?" she looked down at her paws only to see they we're still shaking. get a hold of yourself she thought angrily. This wolf is gunna hate me if I keep up the scardey wolf attitude. I have to keep calm. After all I don't think she will hurt me.

[Keyara]

The young pup screamed, "OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" and jumped back. Keyara looked at it in shock. "imm.. imm sorry" the little pup whispered the apology "Who are you?" The question seemed dumb to Keyera. After all, what was she supposed to say? She was who she was. But that's not what the pup was asking..
I am Keyara, the Arctic wolf and Alphess of River pack here in the ice fields. Might I ask who you are , pup? she looked the pup up and down , searching for injuries or anything like that. It looked fine other than apparent exhaustion.

[Sunnie]

She cleared her throat. "My name is Sunnie. I am a nine month old timber wolf... I lost my memory and have no pack. I'm all alone" She started up at Keyara with cute wolf-dog eyes hoping that she would take her in. No.. Sunnie thought sadly to herself I can not ask for something like that. I will die out on this tundra.. so young. Sunnies' fur was soaking from head-to-tail from the snow melting under the big bright yellow snow. She raised her muzzle and smiled. I love the sun..

OOC: Wow Key, we aren't doing so well are we I will try and improve my posts but i'm really busy right now so this is the best until tommorow.. you know me, I usually post paragraphs

[Keyara]

The young wolf cleared here throat and spoke, "My name is Sunnie. I am a nine month old timber wolf... I lost my memory and have no pack. I'm all alone" she smiled and stared at me with those cute puppy-wolf eyes that no one can resist. What is she doing? Keyara looked her up and down trying to figure it out. Sunnie smiled up at the sun, well I decided what too do. Hmm.. well I only really do have one option I eyed her quickly, then spoke. "Well Sunnie. You may stay here for awhile if you so wish. I am the only wolf currently in my pack. But I am after all the alpha so you must listen too me. There are rules... I paused, giving her a chance to ponder this thought for a moment. Then I spoke again, No going into other territories. You are young, but if you are a member of a pack you stay on that packs territory no matter what age you are. Unless you are going to find a new pack, with the risk of being killed, or if you are banished. Also, you will do your part. This wolf pack will become larger and with more wolves that means more mouths too feed. I pawed the ground softly, hoping that I didn't scare Sunnie. This pack really needs members no matter how young or old.


OOC: Don't worry Sunnie. Posts only have to be a paragraph long here, remember?

[demetri]

Demetri walked toward the small Ice hill. But.. he stopped. There he saw the beaitiful arctic wolf he had saw before, but she was talking to a timber wolf probably about .. less than a year old. The arctic wolf opend her mouth to speak "Well Sunnie. You may stay here for awhile if you so wish. I am the only wolf currently in my pack. But I am after all the alpha so you must listen too me. There are rules... " rules? thought Demetri. I wonder what kind of rules? the wolf paused for a moment and then spoke again. "No going into other territories. You are young, but if you are a member of a pack you stay on that packs territory no matter what age you are. Unless you are going to find a new pack, with the risk of being killed, or if you are banished. Also, you will do your part. This wolf pack will become larger and with more wolves that means more mouths too feed" she pawed the ground lightly. Well it looks like I already have been accepted in a way, because this pack sure needs me Demetri smiled sheepishly "Hi.." he said slowly not sure what too say "Names' Demetri, the Grey wolf. I here you're looking for pack members??

[Keyara]

"hi.." Keyara turned to see a big, gray wolf standing a little ways away from her and Sunnie. "Names' Demetri, the Grey wolf. I here you're looking for pack members??" the wolf spoke slowly. Keyara looked around. "You can join..." she said to him, not sure of what else to say " And I'm pretty sure you heard the rules. Obey them, or your out. I need pack members, not little whinny babys that need protecting all the time. Sunnie and you are new members, thus being subordinate. Subordinate members of the pack aren't all that, so don't be getting cocky. You may gain rank later if I see that you are worth it. And I'm not mean either, I'm just hungry and tired. Now , how about we go find a den for this pack, if we can even call it that...." I let the thoughts trail off on the end . Smiling to myself and turned and walked up the small hill. When I reached the top, I turned. Both wolves where still standing there. Sunnie was scared, and Demetri looked.. somewhat amused. I grinned. " You coming or what?"

[Sunnie]

OOC: I got internet but it will be gone soon so I have to make fast post!!! Sorry i will get internet on Thursday if we stay at the hotel with internet.. which I hope we do!


Sunnie looked around. All she had done was daydream for a second, and then there was Keyara and a new wolf having a conversation.
"You can join..." Keyara said to the gray wolf " And I'm pretty sure you heard the rules. Obey them, or your out. I need pack members, not little whinny baby's that need protecting all the time. Sunnie and you are new members, thus being subordinate. Subordinate members of the pack aren't all that, so don't be getting cocky. You may gain rank later if I see that you are worth it. And I'm not mean either, I'm just hungry and tired. Now , how about we go find a den for this pack, if we can even call it that...."Keyara smiled and walked up the small hill, turned around and said "You coming or what?" Sunnie was angry.
"Hey! What happened! All I did was space out for a second and now there's three of us. Will someone please explain?" she growled and ran up the hill with her tail up, standing in front of Keyara "You !!" she spat. Then suddenly her anger faded. "Sorry..." she apologized quickly "I don't know what came over me. Now can we go find somewhere to sleep? I'm really tired.." Sunnie yawned. ", and when I get tired I get CRANKY..." she muttered and stretched, closing her eyes and taking in the sunlight.

[demetri]

"You !!" Sunnie the little weak pupling spat at Keyara, her tiny fangs showing. "Sorry..." she apologized quickly "I don't know what came over me. Now can we go find somewhere to sleep? I'm really tired.." Sunnie yawned. ", and when I get tired I get CRANKY..." she muttered and stretched, closing her eyes. Demetri was slightly amused by Sunnies' little performance. "Silly little puppie. You will learn better than to threaten wolves bigger than you." he smiled and ran up the hills, sniffing around. Suddenly, he paused. Perfect he grinned. He turned, and started digging the snow. The icy layers went flying across the snow. He dug, and dug, until he hit rock. Then he started digging out the rest of the rock. A cave slowly appeared. "KEYARA! SUNNIE!" he howled. Demetri dug out a pathway to the cave, then went inside. This place is nice enough even for maybe a permanent den.... inside, it was a fairly large den with a high ceiling. It was one large hole, with the rocks on the side dulled so it almost looks as if it was made out of clay and not rock. The bottom was cold, flat brown dirt. It smelled empty, like no one had been there for awhile.

[Keyara]

"KEYARA! SUNNIE!" Demetri yelled from the top of the hill. Keyara picked Sunnie up with her mouth, and ran up the hills to see what he had found. She saw a hole. Putting down Sunnie, she looked inside. well it IS big enough... Keyara thought happily. "Good job Demetri. How would you like to become Beta of this pack? I mean we have no beta... " she smiled at him and walked inside. She pawed at the dirt, making a comforting spot to sit. She stretched and sat down.

[demetri]

"Good job Demetri. How would you like to become Beta of this pack? I mean we have no beta... " Keyara smiled at Demetri.
"How about Alpha Male? I like that a little better. But Beta is good two" his cocky grin filled the air and he pranced about , now in a good mood. "Well, now what?"
