Though Kaela was one to hold a grudge, she was bored. This wasn’t even worth it. Nobody ever did anything, and though she was still angry, she just couldn’t find enough to occupy herself with while she waited. The best thing she could do to get her revenge – for now – was to leave the fire child as bored as she was. Stirring up trouble was going to stir up excitement. If they ever met again, Kaela would be sure to show her just who was boss, but for now this was the best she could do.

So it was, without looking back, that the monochrome girl crossed over the borders and headed north. Winter was on its way, and she wanted to greet it as early as possible. Why she ever thought it would be a good idea to take a break from her constant search of snow was beyond her. It was the only companion she’d ever needed, after all.

Kaela held her tail high and ears erect as she left the territory. No more groveling to less than worthy wolves, no more pretending to be weak and frightened. She was the queen and she would bow for nobody. It was time for her to return to her kingdom.

"Speech" Thought

Zilas was still lowest, and still weary much Grounded. Unable to leave the forest they wandered it aimlessly. They hated their current position, hated what it reminded them off. Hated the fact they more likely than not hit rock bottom. They were back where they had begun, lowest, useless and cowardice. And while they were thankful for the second chance they felt trapped, they wanted to go look for her. To know if their medic was actually gone, to know if they killed another wolf and this time someone they cared for. Of course, she likely hated them, for what they had done. They Hurt her and left her to bear the consequences alone. She had to hate them, she had to hate them if she was even still...

   The Pale ghost shook their head eyes slightly wide and fear started to seep through their fur into their scent. They did not want that though to cross their mind and forced it away, she would be okay she was their dark medic. They needed her even if she hated them. And yet that one specific though haunted them whenever they went to rest and even when they were wide awake it came sneaking. That was why they got up early too, some times before the sun had even started to rise. They slept whenever they found peace to it and worked when IT haunted their mind. Today they just walked were very their legs took them, they tried to bring their minds to focus on hunting, scouting anything other than the fact that winter was coming and she be all alone in it. If she still was.... "NO!" they shouted and set into a run IT laughing in their mind so it echoed in their head tears clinging to the corners of their eyes not yet falling.

   But as they crossed a log in their rushed run they suddenly came to a halt. In front of them, a familiar silver wolf came, her tail held dominating high. They by default bowed down, knees bending, tail tugged under them waging and eyes on the ground. She was second, she was powerful and she was superior. They hesitated slightly before racing their gaze just a bit to watch her face.  "Sorry Kaela, we did not mean to intrude," they mumbled slightly, though wondered where she was going as she seemed alone. "Where are you going? Do you need any help?" they asked offering to help, it wasn't like the pale ghost would have much choice. As lowest they was just there to serve the high ranks, like they been with their family.      

  

"Talking." IT.

Kaela had been hoping to slip away quietly – the last thing she wanted was to land herself on the wrong end of a fight again.  Even so, she hadn’t felt the need to sneak.  Why should she? There was no reason for anybody to challenge her – except that spitfire princess – or attempt to force her to stay.  

Besides, a little tension made life fun.

So when that familiar voice called out behind her, Kaela paused and turned around, head cocking a little at the ‘we’.  Zilas was the one wolf here that actually held her interest.  His use of plural when referring to himself somewhat – dare she say it? – endeared him to her.  They were kin.

She decided to tell him the truth.  They were not here to collogue against the pack, though she might have once tried to draw her into her plan. Now she felt no need to keep her business a secret.

“We’re leaving.” She took a small step towards him, tail sinking in the air to indicate friendliness.  That was how this worked, right? “Do you want to come with us?” She asked, once again mirroring his plural self-reference.  Her head tilted, further punctuating her question as sniffed towards him.

A young deer has been separated from the rest of its herd. Hunt Opportunity

Blehh this turnd out longer the i wanted it to.... hope its okay lol he kidna just droped every thing on her

LEAVING!?!?  The pale ghost jaws drooped as they watched them eyes wide with shock. Why would she leave? Was she not happy? She was one of the main wolves of the pack a second the next in line for alpha, hell if she wanted she could even try..... They forced the thought form their head, though why? They had given up on kings, such things did not exist for them anymore, they were not made to serve a king the gods had made that much clear. And yet here they were scraping the ground of the woodlands waiting for forgiveness to go look for someone who likely hated them. but they needed to know where she was, that she was safe even though they likely hurt her so bad. To know she was not just alone, like they been. Her step towards them and her wagging tail only caused further confusion, how could she be happy? How could she be happy to be alone! "You're leaving the woodlands?" they asked her voice filled with disbelief and for some reason sorrow "Why? What about Aidden and Miccha, your their second" they asked trying to gain some kind of expiation or reason to why she leave what seemed like a perfect life in favor for the lone and soon to be cold wilderness.

And then someone might as well have drooped a bomb to blow up the entire world of Relic lore, for minutes they just stood there staring at her. She was asking them to leave the woodlands? To just abandon them here and now? But what about the alphas, their second chance, the pups (not that they been anywhere near them, they did not dare go near the alpha's pup with all the mess they made). "You want us to come with you?" they asked voice holding surprise and disbelief. She wanted them around, despite binge the packs lowest? Why wasn't she trying to rib their ears off?  After all the moment she drooped the request for them to join, they straighten up to their full hight without fully realizing it, though their tail was still slightly tugged under them. "But we broke pack law, Aidden demoted us, gave us a second chance can we just leave that?" they started at her mismatched eyes fully on her as she spoke, how were they supposed to react to this? Poor little Ai all lost and alone, gonna ruin another life? IT's voice rang in their head and they took a step back body lowering back into submission. "Everywhere we go we mess up, make our leaders angry, and ruin someone else's life" they spoke eyes still on her face. Would she really want them to come along if she new their full story? did they want her to know the full story? But if she did not know now and found out later what would she then think? Oh well if she was leaving what did it matter? "We breed last spring, an old friend of our former pack" they spoke eyes on Kaela "the king our friend kicked us out, he was out friend our savior. And he doesn't allow subordinate breeding, its banishment." tears once again clung to the corners of their eyes, "We don't know if she is safe or if she is" they trailed off. Hesitating they looked at her "Kaela, what if" Mismatched eyes begging her to tell them what would most likely be a lie, that a lone wolf-mother was out there healthy and strong as an ox.

OOC: Kaela gonna say a naughty word...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Word Count: 305

Sometimes she forgot that not everyone was like her. She forgot that sometimes people needed an explanation. Her ears flicked when she heard the word ‘why’. Their follow-up question was even better. “Who wants to serve someone who’s never around?” She scoffed.

They then seemed to realize that she had asked him a question as well. They were shocked, to say the least, and stuttered out another question. Before she could answer, she was suddenly assaulted by emotional baggage that spewed from their mouth. Her eyes narrowed slightly. “I couldn’t care less what you did.” She snapped impatiently. Why was any of that her business? She didn’t need to deal with any of this extra bullshit.

Zilas’ pleading eyes bothered her, though she didn’t know why. What did they want from her? “What if what?” She asked. “What if she’s on her own?” She rolled her eyes. “We’ve been on our own since we were a pup and we’ve been just fine.”

She cocked her head at them again. Did she really want Zilas to come with her? Was it worth it? Having a companion could prove useful someday. They seemed much weaker than her; very susceptible to suggestion. It wouldn’t hurt to keep them around and play nice. If they got too annoying, she could always ditch them. “Would you rather stick with your second chance, or start with a clean slate?” She asked, voice softening from its former harshness.

The monochrome woman hesitated before making her next offer. She was not fond of traveling with others. Even Zilas would prove to be a tax on her patience. Could she really handle another one – possibly even a pup?

But if it got the wolf standing before her to join her…

“We're heading north. We can look for this ‘friend’ of yours on the way.”

"Speech" Thought

Zilas watched the woman answered not seeming too pleased, though they could hardly blame her. And yet were it not their fault they were never around?? Aidden had stormed off after they been demoted after all. They allowed their tongue to flick over their nose, "Guess your right" the responded, even if they pissed them off that was no reason to leave the pack at only her mates paws. And it did not help that the pale ghost was certain that the dark alpha had weary little of any at all, care for them. And then she snapped at them causing them to pull back slightly but straightening up a bit. She really did not care? For some reason, the pale ghost felt relief that she did not care, did that mean she would actually be okay with them around?  They could use some company who wasn't waiting to see if their second chance was a mistake or now. "Thank you" they finally said voice emotionless as a somewhat odd smile spread on their lips.

   And then she did something she not done before, she gave them a little piece of her past. Just a tiny grain of a larger stack but still a pice. She had been alone from a young age, had she been ousted like they had? Was there really someone they had something in common with? They did not dare ask, they felt she might not have realized she was letting go of information on her past. "Your right, She's strong, odd but strong" honestly Zila's wasn't certain if Sylva could be called strong but they knew that she would be fine even if she wasn't in a pack. Besides she was smart in her own way, if she gotten kicked out she found a new pack! She was a healer, a task which was vital for all packs! 

   Lost in the thoughts oh hope that their dark medic was alright they weren't paying much attention until her voice now soft pulled them back to reality. Honestly, they had to admit it was odd hearing her speak in such a soft tone though they could not deny that it sounded better than when she sounded like ripping off his other ear. "We... we wanna be stronger then this" They grumbled lips pulling back slightly as they looked away from her straightening up though tail still stuck by their ankles. They were honest, they did not wanna be lowest. It was only a position that brought back memories of the past, of their parents and their uncle who were still alive. Mismatched eyes turned to her lips falling into a grin "We wanna be stronger then this, If you really want us to join you we will follow you" they replied, after all this might just give them the chance they neede to go look for a certain black wolf.

   But then she offered something they could barely believe her say, to help look for sylva. "We be in your depth if you help us" they replied bowing their head for a second before looking back up at her. "But if we are heading north could we possibly avoid the pack calling themselves Wild Rey Fileds? We Aren't on the best terms with them" the growled slightly as the memory of the two men passed over their mind. One had been rude the other a ghost from the past whom had claimed part of their ear.

This odd fellow really wasn’t worth the effort, yet Kaela kept trying. Had she realized she’d given him a nugget of information about her past, she might have attacked him on the spot. Fortunately for Zilas, the girl was more focused on trying to figure out how the whole ‘allies’ thing worked. She was so focused on her inner thoughts and silencing the voices clamoring for her attention that she almost missed when he agreed to join her. When Kaela realized what he’d said, her ears pricked up and she couldn’t help a little self-congratulatory smile. We did it! The voices crowed. And it would never hurt to have someone in our debt…

At the mention of avoiding a pack, the monochrome woman shrugged. “I prefer to avoid packs.” She stated dully before moving forward to sniff him again and brush his shoulder with her own. That’s what teammates did, right? Shared a scent? It would be strange for her to be sharing one still, but it would be less chaotic than the pack scent she carried now.

Her mind was already racing ahead. She never really planned anything, but with a companion at her side, she could take bigger prey. She’d never really ‘struggled’ to survive the winter, as it seemed to be kind to her, but it wouldn’t hurt to have some help. And if she ever met that bastard again… she giggled. He’d be less inclined to attack her if she was backed up by someone from his own pack. Not that he’d care, as he’d disappeared before she even joined.

This might actually be fun.

“Shall we get going?”

"Speech" Thought

As the woman seemed to agree that avoiding packs was a good idea the pale ghost nodded their head. Perfect, though if she did intend to avoid packs was she counting on binge a loner though the full winter? Even if they were two that was still not a whole lot. Yet they had a feeling that she knew what she was doing, and they felt safe leaving her to decide on rather or not they would seek out packs. Besides, if all went south they could always try to rejoin a pack could they not? A clean slate would allow them to maybe actually work towards becoming a guardian. However, they were slightly surprised when she brushed herself against them. Of course, she was trying to share scents but they never expected her to be the kind to ensure such was a done. And yet it was nice to know someone wanted them around enough to actually be smelling of them.

She seemed to be deep in thought as she giggled lightly and the pale ghost tilted their head, though did not question her laugh. Perhaps she was happy that they had joined her? Honestly, they liked the thought of that, the thought of binge wanted and appreciated. Ans then she said the magic word, "yes let's go, you lead the way" they made a gesture for her to lead where they were going wondering if she intends to do anything to inform the Woodlands of their departure. Oh well, it did not matter anymore. Maybe they could grow stronger traveling with Kaela, at least they hoped so. They wanted to be strong to be better than this.

She had to say she felt quite accomplished. The only interaction she really got with others was her intrapersonal conversations – if that actually counted. Yet somehow she managed to convince Zilas to join her.

Kaela couldn’t help but wonder what came next. How did she keep him with her? She hadn’t been able to practice this kind of thing for a while, and she didn’t really have a role to play. The whole time she’d been here, she’d been acting the part of a terrified child looking for safety. Not anymore. But what personality should she take on now? She’d never really been ‘herself’; she didn’t even know what that meant anymore.

Trust, trust, trust! The voices chanted.

She decided to keep up what she’d started here. Firm enough to keep control but sympathetic enough to remain the better option. If she could do him favors, make him owe her…

Well, they would have to see if the effort would be worth it after they found his girl. If they found her, that is.

She nodded as he told her to take the lead, and the monochrome woman turned and trotted off into the brush, tail waving in the air as she went and head held high. She glanced back to make sure Zilas was following, then turned her eyes to the future.
