Cedarwood Forest Standing In A Corner

<blockquote><i>Reba if you'd let Allie post after me, then you can :) so it's less confusing. </i>

The wolf was bizarre, and certainly had a few brain cells missing. She went from defying with her own growls to a goof ball telling them they had to chase her, like a young pup ready to play. If anything Jayse believed she was more dangerous than a bear because a bear was far more predictable then what this wolf was doing. Had she gotten attacked or dropped as a child from a high ledge? It didn't matter, she wanted her gone, and far from here. The pale leadess was not about to take orders from anyone.

A snarl vibrated much deeper, like a low rumble in her building up, and her lips curled showing both her sharp teeth. She was done talking. No, instead she had in mind to let this wolf know she was far from welcome, and this was not a game. Feeling no need to tell Kade this instead she waited for the git to jump by her, that's when without hesitation she snapped toward the black snout of the girl.</blockquote>

As dumbfounded as he may have been by the rogue's tactics, the male could feel the building tension and anticipated its eventual erruption. His blood boiled at the black wolf's insane reply, but it took only a few seconds for Jaysyek's patience to fade, and without warning the alpha made her intolerance known.

Instinctively, the coal-coated brute lunged forward and behind the heels of the leadess as she snapped at the trespasser's snout. The musculature of his body was tight and the reactions in his brain seemed instantaneous as he played it out how this encounter might end. Fearlessly, he took the female's leg, iron-like jaws clamping to the flesh of her lower thigh just above the hock.

Rebecca laughed when the two wolves attacked at her. Pain didn't mean anything, just the information that someone cared about her enough to attack. Pulling her leg off from the jaws of Kade she use her powerful back legs to launch her in speed. Running to the direction where she had came from, she looked back to see if they were following her. She ran rather slowly, lettin the two wolves time to get her. This was life!

Someone ould think that Rebecca was insane when she did something like this, but the young daredevil only wanted to be noticed. When being nice wasn't enough, it was time to make everyone mad. Usually she hated to make anyone angry at her. But after living alone, any wolf companon, no matter was it friendly or not, was enough. Most wolves didn't understand this, and it had led to any close counters, but it was okay.

<blockquote>Teeth grabbed empty air, but Kade suceeded in a bite to the wolf's limb. What did she hear? Laughter. It unsettled her further, wondering why the black wolf was so disturbed. She was not about to take pity on this one, or waste her breath asking questions. She had no tolerance for the odd behavoir, and watched as she tore herself from her companon's sharp teeth. The wolf was crazy, didn't it hurt? She seemed not to notice taking off where she had come from. Jaysyek was not about to run after her instead a fierce bark released, and it echoed through the forest the only thing to chase after the black wolf. If she came back, well it would be a different story. There would be more then just <span class='word'>bobbery</span>.

Every hair pricked, and her ears still flattened in displeasure she waited looking into the distance waiting for the strange creature to return. It was only when she thought she heard her steps still leading away did she turn to Kade. <b>"I hope we don't see her again."</b></blockquote>

The intruder laughed ridiculously as his teeth sank superficially into her hind limb. Really, the male could have laughed himself at the situation, had it not been so irritating. So it was only by taking a deep breath as Jaysyek sent the stranger off that Kade shook the irritation from his coat, looking to his friend respectfully as she addressed him.

<b>"No kidding,"</b> was his quick reply, a tone of relief to his voice as he watched for any sign that the lunitic might, ridiculously, come back for more "attention." The subordinate observed the body language of his leader - his dearest...well...everything - dismayed by her tension. There was something about it that was off, not in the sense that she was normally tension-less, but there seemed to be more to her mood, which had brought her from the den to the wood in the dark of the night. He stood silently at her side, looking to the treelines for everything and nothing as mind and body began to tire.

Although it was challenging to shake the physical effects of the strange encounter with the black female, after a moment he'd put it all to the back of his mind, hoping that Jaysyek would be able to do so as well. <b>"Let's get out of here?"</b>the question posed gently as moonlight illuminated the shades of silver that peppered his coat. He felt as though he should escort her back to the place where she'd been so undeservingly disturbed, should she go back.

OOC: Continue as you want, this is just what Rebecca did, the next thing is in king midas ;)

Rebecca did left those two wolves for now, but to revenge for taht they missed to chase her, she didn't leave the territory. Hunting in the dark of the night, she managed to stay in safe. Sleeping, eating and living in pack's territory, where she didn't belong.

<blockquote>Single ear rotated to the familiar sound of his voice, and she had nothing to say in return. Under her coat was a mass of emotions which mixed together, neither one winning the battle to come out on top. She calmly stood in the darkness, her mismatched eyes stareing at the little, falling snowflakes as if she were somewhere else not there. It was almost like she had to become a vacant void not to snap into a million pieces, because the road to happiness would not be found any eaiser if she did.

Faint flake fell to her eye, suddenly she blinked, and was overcome with how tired she really was. She'd been driving herself past the line of exhaustion, and more to the line of half dead. Much as Kade might have put the idea in the corners of his mind, she couldn't shake the feeling the wolf was only lurking out in the dark. The fact the rogue was outnumbered gave her mind some peace, and slowly she turned. Her bottom lip twitched if ready to speak, but instead she held her words and nodded her head. She was ready to leave here, and her eyes couldn't help but go to the twinkling silver of his coat, and bright stare. She held his gaze if only but to read his mind. There was parts of him still a mystery.

Clearing her throat, she took a step, but stopped turning her neck to see behind her. Once more her eyes were upon the large boulders, and the smaller stones a longing, almost defeated look to her bi-colored pools. One last silent goodbye, she forced herself to walk on. She didn't make it to far though, she leaned into Kade hoping he might take the lead back.</blockquote>

He couldn't help but to be troubled by Jaysyek's exhaustion, as it seemed to take a hold of her in the wake. To this day he'd yet to really understand the reasoning behind her depressions, knowing only that they affected her body and mind to an extent that he could fully embrace - the kind of extent that was disastrous and tolling. His tail flicked as he watched the way her anger faded into sadness, and the way her eyes seemed to drown in the sea of tears that filled them, holding them there. It was a terrible sight, and although it was hard for him to see that look on her beautiful face, he knew that it was now when she needed him to be strong for her.

She nodded, agreeing that she was ready to go also, holding back her words along with her tears. She glanced back to the stones, perhaps only for the sake of seeing them with her own eyes in that moment, and he in turn couldn't help but to examine them further, looking over them with an astute sensitivity. Surely their mystery could be uncovered in the future, along with answers that he believed the snow-colored female had buried inside of herself.

The space between the pair narrowed as Jaysyek took a few baby steps in the general direction from which they'd come. His heart skipped a beat as the female leaned into his body, still warm from the altercation. She was ready to give up, but he wouldn't - couldn't - let her, not now...For a moment he halted, looking down to the curves of her saddened face as he tried to nestle her close and as best he could as a frigid, winter gust blew through the trees. Silver eyes gazed deeply into hers, brows coming together as his own emotions stirred. <i>I'm here</i>, they could have whispered to her.

He'd have carried her to somewhere safe and warm if it were possible. If it were possible, he'd give her every strength he had and take her suffering in exchange. For now, it was all he could do to lift her pouting chin supportively with a gentle nudge, to look her in those perfect, somber eyes and reassure her. He would take the lead without a second thought, stepping forward encouragingly. As the darkness, literal and figurative, closed in around them - black and cold in every sense - the only thing that felt warm was the inferno that raged inside of his heart for her.

<blockquote>Was now the time to tell him? All she had hoped for, all she had lost? She hadn't spoken much to anyone about the havoc upon her soul...close, but not quite. Elettra, Aisling, and Borden might have gotten an earful, but it was only a touch on the surface. She proabably appeared so unstable, flakey even, to him, going from one emotion to another without much space in between. It was hardly good for anyone, and surely not someone in charge of other's well being. Her father had taught her a broken soul who never healed did no one any good. That's where she was different, she pressed on, she tried, and she woke up each day working to make it better. It wasn't like she couldn't think straight about what needed to be done, she would not fail her pack. If anything she had tried to put their well being above hers, but life was a harsh game of give, and take. In the single moment she was defeated, ready to shut her eyes and not wake up till tomorrow when the sun might promise a better day.

The weather was clearly against her staying out here any longer. Comforting form about her, she kept herself together with a fragile smile of gratitude toward the charcoal cloaked man when he looked down upon her. Much like the first time she was pulled into the steel liquid of his eyes which were alive with many things she couldn't read at once.She'd never thought of silver being warm, but they were to her, and somehow she was sure she could count on him. What he had said about not leaving her was really true, and not said upon a whim. If it wasn't enough already he confirmed it by placing his muzzle beneath her chin letting their eyes lock once more in silent words. How could she repay him for all he had done for her, her family? She would bump her black nose to his trying to confirm she would be okay in time.

When he took the lead her pale figure kept close to his side afraid her body would be the next part of her to crash. But all she needed was the flowing warmth he radiated, and his thick frame to continue through the brewing storm of snow, and cold winds.

If only to escape her thoughts were this easy, but as they walked back to the familiar grounds of the hollow she only seemed more torn by the comfort in their closeness. She silently promised herself before anything Kade had to know the whole story, it was just mustering her strength, her courage to tell it.</blockquote>
