Twist was looking over her territory and her pack once more. It was still too small for her own liking and some things seamed to be lacking from it- like adults. Her entire pack was puppies and fimilars. Well not that they weren't her most trusted allies and friends but in all honest truth if Ano attacked her now she would completly rip threw her and her pack in less then a second. Her conversation with Rage didn't much help her on top of it all. Apparently the red and white beast was stronger then she planned; ally-wise. She still didn't think the wolf herself was all that strong. Take her out and she gathered it be all over.
She sighed and desided to take a walk in the dark woodland. Maybe that would calm her mind. Innocents are going to be killed. Rages words echoed in her mind. Well that still wouldn't stop her plan but it didn't make her feel any better about proceeding. She needed somebody who could prehaps keep the innocents out of the way. It was obvious she couldn't avoid the war- but maybe the excess deaths and injuries?
She padded forth so that she was now on the other side of her territory near the freelands. At least the light was brighter here.

Libenalas roamed quietly without any true direction or purpose, she was weary of a packless life yet she seemed to lack the fotitude and attitude needed to weedle her way into a large group. Always a lover and never a true antagonist she found herself alone and too shy to remedy the situation.
She sighed and sat down to rest a long while before she would have to scout out a place to shelter for the night, and food, something small she could bring down on her own. Libenalas had become rather skilled at hunting her meals solo which was probably the only reason she wasnt some scrawny vagabond.
With a huff she stood and gazed around upset with herself for the moment of self pity. She sniffed curiously as she realized another approached. Eager for conversation or company of any kind she stayed where she was.

The dark pelted wolf's brow raise ever so slightly as she continued to pad forward. She could sence traces of another- an enemy spy? Probally not- this sent was more of one of those harmless females that always seamed to be wandering around searching for mates. From the smell of it she seamed hungry too. How silly it was that she had gained most of her members threw food rather then conversation. If she knew this earlier she would have just set up a smorgasborg of free food and left it at that- probally leaving Algoma in charge to weed out the ones that were worthy from the ones that were just well...hungry.
As she padded closer it seamed her first guess had been right. It was a pink female without any air of anger around her. If she was packless then Twist could surely convince her to join hers. At least offer her a meal back in her territory. Once she was there Larka could probally sway her to stay. She was puppy-cute. And for those overly maternal females that was really all she needed.
"Hello there."
Twist echoed quietly from her lips with her alpha stance.

Libenalas was suddenly warry she hadn't expected to come across an alpha. She fought the urge to shy back and forced herself to stand up a little straighter, she had every right to be in unclaimed territory.
"Hello..." her voice came out softly with the slightest lilt.
She moved forward a bit wanting to make it clear she wanted no trouble nor was she afraid. She watched the other female carefully though still hopeful for some friendly company for a bit, but she figured an alpha would have better things to do, such as tend to her pack.

Twist could see clearly that the other ment no harm and tilted her head in greating acordingly. One thing Twist wasn't was rude. She could never see the point of warding a potential member off. That was really all she cared about -numbers. There was just something in her mind that told her the more followers you had at your heals the more powerful you were as a leader; and it was already quite apparent that Twist had Ego issues.
"It's my pleasure to meet you. My name is Twist; and my pack borders on these lands."
She again seamed to tip her brow to this making it a point that she had no intent on striking or attacking the other. Again that was useless in her mind. Why kill potential followers? Why even risk getting a bad rap? This wolf would prove potential fodder for her fire. Even if she couldn't fire she was sure that the other possesed some quality that would make her stand out above the others. Didn't all her members have something like that?
Algoma was savage and witty. Larka was brave and friendy. Herself? She was just good at putting the peices together.
"So what brings you out here today?"

Libenalas watched Twist carefully she seemed friendly enough, but she knew that somethings were not as they appeared. She sat down to one side after a moment and dipper her head in greeting.
"I'm Libenalas...but you can call me Alas..." She glanced over to where Twist had come from.
"I wasn't heading into your packlands...I was only wandering around...to find a place for the night." She shrugged "I just happened to wander this way today, I dont normally find any company."
Libenalas tried not to let her excitment show finally someone to talk to. She was lucky to come across another friendly female, well perhaps friendly wasn't the word but not mean either, Twist was...well an alpha and behaved as such, calculating until she was certain. She knew she would have to try and make a good impression.

Twist seamed to be overjoyed to hear the other didn't have a place to stay. That was wonderful! Just wonderful! That would make it so much easier for her being she would DEFINATLY have to take her back to the packlands to meet Larka now.
"Well no matter if you wandered into them anyways- as long as you didn't have ill intentions that is..."
She seamed to make it clear that she wasn't one to be crossed if her packmates were in danger. Even if they were a bunch of stragglers and runts. This was her family and they were not to be messed with.
"Though I doubt you had any in all honesty. You seam like a nice girl to me."
Her tail flicked with momentary happiness to show she was pleased by this. Then she continued on with her white orbs taking in everything she could.
"If you need a place to stay Alas you can stay in my borders. We are full of food and shelter."

Libealas held back her surge of joy an offer into packlands? To stay somewhere and not have to wander aimlessly day after day? She took a deep breath and calmed herself after all it wasn't an invitation to join the pack simply permission to enter their lands for a bit.
"I would be happy to spend some time in your area...it would be nice to get some rest. I certainly don't intend to harm anyone, I'm much better at tending wounds then making them." She hoped to show she could be of use, anything to finally have a place to belong, and company, she was so very tired of being alone.
"Your pack won't mind my intruding for a bit?"

Twist shook her head at that. Algoma might- but then again she didn't particularly like anybody in truth.
"No of course not."
She was happy that the female seamed so over joined to follow her into her lands. This was great- all going her way to plan. Not to mention she seamed to find somebody that was good at treating wounds. That would prove useful in the war. She bet even Ano didn't have a healer.
"And if you find yourself liking what your see- your more then welcome to join the ranks as Gamma. Larka could use another friend."
But then her anwser would probally come later. After Alas stuffed her face she'd probally more then likely say yes. Being the skilled hunter that Twist was and having Algoma who just liked killing there was always a surplus of excess for just lousing about. That was probally why after she had managed to get everyone she needed that she would have to implement a diet. Her pack sure was getting fat.

Libenalas tail wavered joyfully, an offer to join. What luck, what a wonderful twist of fate to have finally stumbled across another and one who could make her this kind of offer at that! She forced herself to relax after all maybe the rest of the pack wouldn't want her around.
"It would be nice to finally have a place to call home..." She stood and shook off.
"Who is Larka?" She found herself curious about her potential packmates.

Twist beamed at the question holding Larka as one of her most favorable and trusted friends. Thats prehaps why she gave her the position of Beta at such a young age. She would prehaps never find anyone like her at all and she had such a clear level head in her youth as well.
"Larka- is a dear friend of mine..."
She stopped to remeber the first time she had met Larka. They were all pups, her, Larka, and Colorado. Three inseperable friends. Though they were often harsh to Colorado for his hippie-like markings they never ment any harm by it. Now that they were older though Twist desided that she would like none better to have Larka and Colorado be her right-hand men...or women for that matter. She would never have to worry about being back stabbed and she would always have them to confide secrets in. Only problem is neither Larka or Twist could get a hold of Colorado. That brought a sudden frown to her face. She needed to find her other dear friend. Though she needed somebody other then Algoma to leave the pack to when they went off to find him. Though she was trustworthy she doubted there wouldn't be much of a pack left when they returned.
"She is in her youth but you will never meet anyone with potential as such as hers..."

Libenalas relaxed and nodded she was content to see the pride and true friendship she held for her pack. This was not some egotistical dominating Alpha, she genuinly cared. Alas would have to examine all the pack ties carefully, she didn't want to throw herself into a chaotic enviorment after all.
"I'm sure I'll like her..." she glanced towards where Twist had come from curious about the land and the pack and eager now that she had a destination.

She nodded again having again picked another good wolf for her pack. It seamed they all had a purpose and a place in her own plots that she had been dreaming up. Though if she could read minds she would have laughed at Alas for not thinking she had an enormus ego. Heh all Alpha's had to have one of those to lead. Without it she's probally just be content following as Gamma or some other low rank. Why would she care if she wasn't doing it for herself. She smiled.
"I'm sure Larka will love you- she's such a charming girl; talented hunter too."
She was refering to her seagull hunting lessons and learning how to snag them mid-air out of flight.

Libenalas gave a content streach filled with energy now, where she had so little before. It was interesting what having hope and purpose could do for the spirit.
"I'm sure I'll like her, I havent had any practice hunting in a group but I can catch just about anything smaller then I am by myself." She nodded trying to show Twist that she wouldn't be a burden.

The white orbs danced silently ontop of Alas as if again they were laughing. She wouldn't need to hunt anymore unless it was for pure pleasure and the practice. There were so many carasses around that even she was beginning to tire of fresh meat and being fat. Though this did work out for pack advantage- a fat wolf was a healthy wolf; and in the heat of battle that would determine who would live or die.
"There is no need to hunt Alas- unless you want to do it for fun. Our entire packlands is littered with never ending food to pick off of. Yes some has spoiled over the waining months; but that still dosn't detract from the amount of dead we have around our pack to munch on."
For the sheer fact of boredom alone she just couldn't help but killing the natural wildlife. Sure she left enough for them to breed- but nobody could just be content to sit around all day and do nothing. Gah Twist needed this war to come sooner. At least that would give her more of a challenge then the fish that seamed to swim about her paws.
Such stupid animals fish were...were they even animals at all?
