A...a body?

(Ok, so his rejoing thread never happened nor did Kiril ever come anywhere near SW.)

Silvery cream paws found themselves near the boarder as something seemed to tug at her from outside of them. The feeling was strong and soon, despite her pounding heart, she gave in. Slowly she headed off while marking trees with her cheeks. Danica did this to refrain from getting herself lost...again. As she went the thickets seemed to get tighter and tighter, forcing her to squeeze through gaps.

After at least a twenty whole minutes a opening was found, spreading out in a circular shape. It seemed as if something wanted her to find it, for soon she was digging. The father she went the worse the air smelt...but she couldn't place it just yet. When a tuff of rusty red fur came into view she crocked her head. *What is that?* She stared blinking rapidly, dumbfounded. *Well, lets she!* Ignoring her better judgment she pushed the snow off just enough to see the face.

Underneath her was the deflated body of the wolf she had met only once. He had been preserved by the cold Winter weather. His once nice smelling fur was horrible as it reeked with death, old death. His eyes were pecked away, along with some other places on him. However, His face was the most disgusting part left of him and didn't resemble the wolf once know as Liam.

Bewildered she jumped off him yowling with fright. The scene was enough to have her running, tripping, and stumbling back to her family. She went as fast as possible, following her scent trail. *Momma, Momma, Momma!* She howled out just as her paws brought her back into the safety of her home. She trembled as her wide eyes searched for @Nina.

Hollow moved through the bitter cold towards the edge of his home, and soon he was heading towards the edge when he came across the scent trail of little Danica. The leader followed as he would do with the scent of any wolf just to check up on her, yet as he stepped around a particular bush she didn't seem to notice him, streaking back the way she had come with wide fearful eyes. Curious, Hollow continued the way she had come from, ears forward and alert searching for danger he found none to his senses. But something strong was seeping into the air that he could not yet place, the dark male pressed onward until the stench hit him full in the face. Death. The problem was that it was on the other side of some thick brush that Hollow knew he would have to force through. So he squared his shoulders and forced his way through the branches, which had grown brittle with the cold, everything gave way easily. Curiosity pricked at him as he was finally able to identify the scent Death. Hollow saw the scrape in the snow and so decided to uncover more and find out what had scared her so. Soon he found out, Liam, with sunken face and stench of death, his eyes were glazed and opened. He died while he was awake. He needed somewhere warm and you would have turned him away. Sullen, Hollow started down Danica's scent trail with the image of his gastly death mask frozen into his mind the way that Liam was frozen to the earth. <b style="font-family:georgia; font-size:11px; color:#9CB1B9;">"Danica! @Nina! Both of you come here! Hollow called into the Thicket for the mother and daughter
