Titan wandered around the creek as it wound its way through the short hills and under fallen trees. His jet black paws kicked up the heart shaped leaves almost playfully as the dark Thorben recalls his first meeting with @Danica. Thinking back on the event now, Titan could really feel impressed with Dani's brave actions after deciding to leave her old pack. The fact that she had traveled alone before meeting him and survived made Titan's chest warm with pride for his friend.

A strong breeze raked the thinning canopy of the mainly empress tree forest. Those heart shaped yellow leaves fluttered down quietly towards the earth. They showered Titan's silver misted black coat as he jumped over a long fallen tree's wide trunk. It was then that three scents hit Titan's sensitive nose. The first, was that of a lynx. However this lynx scent was a familiar one to Titan; for he had met the very black lynx that the scent belonged to once before. It was back when he had trailed @Angiers scent and found the regal speaking with @Skoll. A lynx had crossed his path looking very angry over the fact that wolves were near its fresh kill. However the animal left after Titan had intimidated it.

The second scent was another one that Titan was semi familiar with. The pack scent of Black Thorn Downs crossed his nose causing the black wolf to wrinkle it in a half snarl. He hated that old wolf smell of Tokino. Though the female who's scent mixed with BTD was one that Titan was unfamiliar with. Lastly the smell of blood and rabbit reached him.

He knew the rules that his mother had in place at Whisper Caverns pack. Rules not to attack unless hit first by Black Thorn Downs wolves. However he wasn't a WC wolf anymore. Her rules didn't matter now. With the idea in his head to check out Firefly and try to chase her away, Titan strode forward angling himself in the females direction. The black wolf drew closer and closer to the cat, she wolf, and the scene that beckoned to him. The only thing he didn't know was what the black lynx was going to do.

OOC__(note that he hasn't reached her location quite yet - gives you time to do something with the lynx :3 )

"Speech here."

When he finally spotted what was happening Titan had to stop his silent approach. The black lynx was slinking towards the she wolf and he suddenly realized what was going to happen. The cat is going to attack her. His mind raced as Titan quickly thought about what he should do.

As much as he didn't like the fact that a Black Thorn Downs wolf was near one of his favorite spots, Titan loathed the idea of the cat being there as well. It had already caused trouble with Willow Ridge wolves before and now looked as if it was going to try and harm another.

Quickly Titan sped forward hurling his large frame towards the cat and Downs wolf at a surprising speed. The cat had climbed up a tree and was readying itself to jump at Firefly. It was just then that Titan unleashed a roar of a snarl attempting to distract the cat. However the cat launches itself at Firefly. Luckily enough the dark Thorben was able to get in between Firefly and the feline. He staggered forward slowing himself down as the feeling of claws raked across his side. Then the dark wolf twists himself around and snaps at the cat. A caterwaul rang through the clearing as the cat dodged Titan's teeth and raked its claws across his chest in an attempt to distract him and get away. Titan however lurched forward in an attempt to catch the cat as it tries to slip away and run off.

His teeth hit their mark snagging the rear end of the ebony colored lynx. Its shrill call reverberates through the air As Titan then uses his forelegs, allowing the cat to scratch them up badly in the process, to press down on the feline so that he could rearrange his jaws and kill the beast. In one swift movement his teeth sank into the back of the cats neck and crunched down. A sickly noise of breaking bones and cartilage cuts off the black cats screams of terror. Titan shakes the limp creature twice before pausing to catch his breath. Then his blue eyes roll to the side to look at Firefly. Still holding the cat in his jaws, the dark Thorben turns his muscular neck and allows his head and silver tipped crown to face her. His black brow shoots up as Titan expectantly awaits the womans reaction.

The sincerety in her chocolate gaze and her concerned words had Titan bite his lip in frustration. Yeah she's a Black Thorn Downs wolf, but she's not... evil... Or treacherous. At least not yet anyway. He growled lightly before dropping the black lynx and eyeballing its sleek black fur. The dark wolf had noticed how @Elettra had pelts lining her den. He had often wondered why she did that, or if there was a purpose to the madness. However a brief thought about bringing the black cats fur to the willow queen did flash through his mind. Much like his uncle Guiness had before him, Titan would take his prize, the black cat fur, and offer it to Elettra. If only because the woman might favor him for the early Christmas present.

He inspected his legs which had been torn up pretty badly. The blood leaked down to his paws making them feel warm and slippery. It was only as he looked at them that Titan began to feel the pain. He began to whimper a little before Firefly's voice cut into his own whines. She mentioned Yarrow which immediately caught his attention. The way she said "Yarrow", It almost seems as if she's talking about some thing like a plant. Something that could help with the blood and pain. He thought quietly while watching Fly freak out and look for whatever plant she was talking about.

"What is Yarrow? An herb? Will it help with cuts like a Goldenrod poultice does?" Titan asked while glancing about the area for goldenrod plants. It was so late in the season that he was sure ergot wouldn't be alive and growing right now. Though Ergot might have been one of the better things to use in this situation. Instead he was left with the dying goldenrod plants scattered about them and whatever this Yarrow that the she wolf was talking about was.
"Speech here."

Curious about the plant that Firefly had mentioned, Titan tried to follow her as she searched for whatever yarrow was. However his legs stung causing the male to wince as he moved towards Firefly. He looked past her to the plant that the she wolf had spotted. His nose went to work surveying the scents that burst up into the air as the she wolf dug at the plant and uprooted it. The smell of earth and moist root seeped into his nose while the lighter scent of flower and green leaves echoed about his senses. It certainly smelled different than the other plants he had come across, but the flowers smell was actually rather close to goldenrods stench.

As the she wolf turned around with the plant dangling from her jaws Titans blue orbs took in every detail of the herbs feather-like leaves. It looked very delicate until the flowers were noticed. They seemed strong and thick as his eyes drifting over the whole plant. It was strong and sturdy up top from the stem and flowers until you got to the base where the thin light green leaves were. It looked like a queen with a feathery dress on.

As Firelfy proceeded to try and make a poultice Titan noticed how hard it was for her to mash up the plant on the ground. It certainly was a dirty way of doing it, and a good way to get an infection. Is it poisonous if eaten? That's why she's not just chewing it? He wondered while noticing that its mashed up leaves smelled somewhat like solomons seal and ergot. Distantly Titan wondered why that was so; that the plant could smell like other kinds. Then he looked down at Firefly as she stooped to work on the herb.

"Is it dangerous to accidentally ingest? If not then you could just chew on it then spread it over the wounds. It's much easier to make a poultice that way." He said somewhat quietly but loud enough for the woman to hear. He still wasn't even sure why he got himself into this situation. Especially since he was conversing with a Black Thorn Downs wolf.
