Kajika Tallis
Pack meeting Lots to discuss, The coming winter and rank changes. {B} First round ends November 15th.@Moonshadow @Tagg @Solas

Even more disconcerting changes were taking place in the cove making the dark alpha even more concerned for the coming winter. Now leading the pack on his own, Muses having disappeared and Vespertio gone too. Kajika hoped that their former alpha had gone in search of his mate and their missing children and nothing had happened to the man. With this changes and the coming winter The dark man felt it important to bring these concerns to the pack so they could discuss them together and make a decision.

Since he wasn't sure how long this meeting would last or really anything about it he at least wanted to make sure their borders were secure. He'd been to plenty of meetings before but her never actually leaf one. What was involved in preparing for then? Was there certain things that needed to he done before, during, and after? The dark alpha was at a loss so he would just conduct this meeting his own way and hope for the best.

Once he'd reached their usual meeting place he raised his muzzle into the air and called for his pack mates. Once the call was finished he sat back in his haunches and waited for them to arrive so they could get started.

No matter how much things changed, Tagg would always be loyal to the Cove.  He would always call this place home. That didn’t mean the changes didn’t scare him, or make him fear for his son’s future.  He couldn’t just think of his stubborn loyalty anymore; Chan came first.  But maybe his dogmatism would be just what was needed to protect his pack.  It was all he could do at this point.

He knew the call would come since Vespertio disappeared, so when Kajika’s voice lifted over the territory in summoning, the veteran was quickly on his way. The current alpha was sitting in his place, patiently waiting. Tagg was the first to arrive. He nodded to his friend in both greeting and encouragement and sat to the side, leaving enough room for the others but still close enough to be respectful. He wasn’t sure what to expect, but whatever Kajika had to say, he was ready.

I think I need help I'm drowning in myself

Things within the cove weren't what they once were. Their numbers had dwindled to herself, her husband, Kajika, Solas and her son. Vespertio had disappeared from the cove without a word. The onyx woman hoped that the lake king was looking for his queen and lost children. But the dark agouti man could take care of himself she was sure of that. She hoped that he and the rest of the vesuains would return home safely. As for the other that had disappeared she was more disappointed by. Muses had been entrusted with leading the cove in the dark woman's absence and simply vanished without a word. How could she?

The voice that rang through the cove was unmistakeable. Her brooding over the girl's disappearance would have to wait. Moonshadow stood from her spot on the rock overhang. Giving her ebony fur a good shake she leapt down from her sunbathing place and headed towards the communal den. Before she got there though the mother would first find her son for she was sure that the boy wouldn't know what the summons meant.

Lucky enough for her Chan was close by and was found easily. "Chan darlin' there's a meeting dear." She smiled and gave the growing boy a kiss to his crown and nudged him towards the den. It wasn't long before the pair made it to the den site. Her best friend and current alpha sat atop the fallen tree that gave their home its name. Her husband was seated not far in front of Kajika and she gave the pair a wide smile as Chan bounded forwards. Not currently the alpha the dark woman moved to her mates side and gave him a kiss. It was weird to think that they were only missing one member. Made the woman sad actually, to know their numbers were so small but she was happy that the wolves around her were family. Now all that was left to do was wait for Solas to arrive and then they could get started.

Paradise Falls III. Second
Chan Eastfall
The politics of low pack numbers weren't a concern to the young Eastfall. He did notice that Muses was gone and that made him sad. She had been his favorite and didnt understand why she left. When he had asked his mother she said she didnt know either. It puzzled him but that day he was too preoccupied with the beattles in the dirt to care. 

He chased the little bugs all around yapping and jumping on them. He was interrupted by the sound of his mamas voice. Mismatched eyes looked up to see her dark form coming towards him. His tongue lolled out as he bounded towards her. With happy yips he adorned her chin with kisses as she told him there was a meeting. Stopping his affection he cocked his head in confusion. What was a meeting?

He didnt have a chance to ask her though for she was nudging him towards the den. So he followed gladly. Arriving quickly the small boy saw his father and god father. Running a head to his dad he greeted him with the same affection he just gave his mother. When he was finished mismatched eyes looked up to the perch that Kajika was sitting on. With a wide grin he bounded to the fallen tree and climbed up. Soon adorning the dark alphas chin with many puppy kisses not even knowing why they were all gathered here.

Solas ColdHeart

He had been walking the edge of the territory thinking about what this winter might bring. They were small in numbers sure but they would still be better off together than alone. A lone wolf was usually a hungry wolf unless you were good at hunting and had a fair amount of luck on your side. Instead of doing border patrol maybe he should go and try and catch something to help keep the caches full. It would help ease the strain later on.

Solas started to veer away from the pack to hunt outside the borders when the call broke the air. He stopped to listen before letting out a sigh. A meeting. He should have guessed that there might be one coming but it hadn't seemed like it would be happening so soon. To him it was something that lingered on the horizon never getting any closer and yet here it was.

Turning away from the task he had just set for himself he loped to the area that the call had come from. When he arrived he noted that he was the last member needed. It was odd to think that he could name every wolf that was in the area. @Kajika the one who was currently leading. Moonshadow the only female in the group. Tagg who was the other male and Chan who was the only pup of the bunch. Out of all of them, the only one he hadn't really interacted with was Chan but that could come later.

Turning his attention to Kajika he sat down noting in amusement that Chan seemed to want to share the alphas perch.

It didn't take long for everyone to assemble. Tagg had no time to greet his mate beyond a smile, as his son had bounded up to him and greeted him enthusiastically. The father kissed his crown, smiling as the pup then bounded up to Kajika.

Though he kept half an eye on Chan to make sure he wasn't going to make a nuisance of himself, Tagg turned to offer Moon a brief kiss and hum of affection, brushing his fur against hers. "He's got a lot of energy today." He murmured, nodding to their child bouncing around on the alphas perch.

Solas was not far behind the only female of the pack. The very thought made Tagg's blood run cold. The veteran couldn't help but compare their pack to the remains of a carcas; nothing but bare bones and a few old strips of fur clinging to the memory of life. Was this it? What was going to become of his beloved Cove?

Lunette Vuesain

She had been scarce since her return—barely crossing the borders, preferring to lurk on the slopes she had once hated, or on the far side of the lake, out of reach from a pack she wasn't sure she could still fit into, yet guilty about abandoning. It was twice now, twice in a year, and it hadn't done much for her except tie her head into knots. It formed a complicated pattern, odds and ends, bits and pieces, a tug-o-war between cold rationality and the strange thing going on in her heart.

It frustrated her. She felt like it was just one, long break-up, like she was slowly severing the ties binding her to the Cove, but.. But. It hovered above her day and night, making her irritable, so she kept away even from Kajika, only coming by occasionally to let him—and no one else—know that she hadn't left again.

She just didn't feel like socializing. She didn't feel like doing much, aside from prowling the lakeshore during sunrise, or watching the stars slowly wheel ahead, or brave the slopes to hunt in the lowlands beyond.. and worry. Worry, about the pack, because even though she didn't care, she still cared, and it would soon be winter, and they had Chan to protect and feed. Worry, about her parents, for both were missing, and though she had learned young to live with the heavy weight of grief—for her sister, gone to the wind—it didn't lessen the blow. Her parents, who had sworn to always be there for her, or something along those lines, had left.

By extension, left her, and that hurt.

The call cut through the dark fog of her thoughts, and for a moment, she hesitated. Water dropped from her nose, raised above the lake's placid surface, and her ears folded back against her head. She wasn't stupid—she knew Kajika was in charge. The border reeked of his scent markers, her Papa was gone, and he had always ranked above Tagg. Still, it was a harsh reminder of how much things had changed, a fleeting shadow rippling through her blood.

Everything changes, she told herself glumly, you do, too. Change didn't have to mean anything.. something.. she grit her teeth. She couldn't ignore the call. For better or for worse, she had chosen to return.

Head low, tail low, ears back, the silver shadow called Lunette slunk onto the scene of the meeting, folding her narrow frame to the ground in the shadows. No one could miss her arrival, yet she hoped they all would.

Kajika Tallis
Thank you all for your speedy replies. Next round starts November 22nd

After sending the call Kajika waited for the others to arrive and since they were so few it didn't take long at all. He couldn't help but smile at little Chan’s antics as he climbed up into the fallen tree and began licking his godfather's chin. “Hello to you too Chan,” said as Solas arrived and took a place for the meeting. It was movement at the fringes of the group that caught the Alpha's attention.

Lunette had arrived to the meeting as well. He hadn't seen much of her since her return but he knew she was in the area. He even knew he could go find her if he wanted but she seemed to want to get alone so he let her have her space. She came to him often enough to let him know that she was okay and that she hadn't left again.

With the arrival of the young Vuesain everyone was at the meeting so it was time to get started and get it over with. “We have many things to discuss. The first thing being that Moonshadow will be stepping up as our female lead once more,” he said his amber gaze seeking out his friend.

“Chan has now reached the age where we will need to experience a pack hunt so that he can get that experience. Also a hunt will help fill our caches for the winter and hopefully help us to get through the colder months when prey becomes scarce,” he went on a glance down at the pup as he spoke of the hunt.

"As you all know,” he said returning his amber gaze to the group in front of him, “Winter is coming and we need to be prepared. Food will become scarce so we have to booster our patrols to make sure our caches stay safe. Our number have dwindled so that will put more work on all of us. If you can recruit some members please do so, I will he glad to meet with anyone you bring to the borders.” Kajika let all of that sink in, it was a lot to take in but he trusted the group gathered would be okay with it.

I think I need help, cuz I'm drowning in myself

Silver eyes watched as her son bounded up the fallen tree to greet his god father. Had it been anyone else besides Kajika she would have told the boy to behave himself and to get down. It seemed though that the onyx male was fine with it, so if he was she would be as well.

It didnt take long at all for, what she thought was, the final member of the cove to arrive. She gave the stormy man a warm smile and nod of her head. It had been a while since they had talked, too long actually, Moon made a mental note to check up with him. Her attention returned to her husband as his hum reached her ears and she felt his kiss. With a hum and kiss of her own she returned his affection. A quiet laugh fell from her maw at the mention of their sons energy. "Yes he does, now let's see if he'll behave" she replied looking back at the coves only child. Oh how she wished he had siblings to play with.

Just when she thought the meeting would begin the unmistakeable sound of another approaching reached the woman's silver dusted ears. With confusion Moonshadow looked back to see the familiar silver form of Lunette. Her eyes widened ever so slightly at the sight of the girl. She didnt know she had returned. The yearlings scent had been scarce basically nonexistent really. That didnt matter though for if truth be told the dark woman was relieved to see the youngest Vuesian. That meant she wasn't out on her own and something bad hadn't befallen her. She knew the girl struggled with demons, but she was glad she wouldn't be alone. Moon gave Lunette a warm smile as if to say she was happy to see her.

With the actual last member arriving Kajika began the meeting. He started off announcing that she would once more be stepping up as female alpha. It was true now that she had found her son she could once more do the job Namid and trusted her with. She would take care of their home until the queen returned. The ebony woman looked  to each member and gave a small nod. She remained where she was seated for she felt there wasn't a reason to move. Their numbers were small causing her to believe that the message was clear, no need to act further on it at that moment. The next thing on the agenda was a pack hunt. Chan was now old enough to watch a hunt and begin to learn how a pack works together to bring down prey. The first time mother watched to see how the boy would react. It was bitter sweet for her but she knew he'd be excited. With that the subject of winter arose and they were encouraged to recruit new members. "I will also be happy to meet with anyone you may find willing to join." She added to show her support. Should Kajika be busy Moon would be more than willing to help. She was also an alpha after all.
