The white and yellow striped female darted glances around her as she padded out of the camp. At the moment she had no assigned duties other than to train, she still didn't like the possibility of being found out. It was well known among the males that she liked them, and liked to spend time with them whenever she had a moment to spare. For the most part it was just innocent cuddling, though most of the males were rigid and afraid of getting caught. She didn't want to get caught either, but she wasn't going to be scared. She'd worked it up in her mind that she was allowed these brief snippets of comfort and physical contact with the males.
Recently though, she'd found a much more interesting male. He was scrawny and weak, but not of the pack. He was a loner, and seemed to understand the she-wolf's need for comfort. The male wolves in her pack seemed to be relieved that her attentions were focused elsewhere, even if it'd only been for a couple of days. After a few minutes trot, she came to their usual meeting place. The loner peeked his head out from a small den he'd made and came up to Taiyou. His head was respectfully low as he licked and nuzzled her and she returned the affection, though her head was higher up as well as her tail. She settled down onto the ground with him as he rested his head on her paws. She half closed her eyes with content and relaxed, just enjoying the solitude and this other warm furry body pressed up against her.

 If it wasn't one thing she had to deal with it was another. Training these worthless whelps would be a challenge but Varia was certainly up to it, in fact she enjoyed watching them suffer under her iron paw. It didn't matter if they were tired, or hungry or thirsty because training was only done when she said so. Already she had a list of wolves who needed much more work than others, as well as those who were steadily improving, though perhaps not as fast as she was hoping for. But then again slow steady success was in a way better than no improvement at all.
Today however, she was on to something other than lack of fighting skills. Varia was fully well aware that a certain female would often sneak out from the packs territory, though why was a question that was yet to be answered until today. As she followed silently a good distance behind Taiyou she noted that this one would need more training on detecting those behind her because the white female seemed oblivious to Varia's presence.
The sight that greeted her eyes was utter disgusting and anger fueling. What was this stupid female doing sneaking out like this, and to spend that time with a male no less. She sat hidden watching the display for several moments before deciding it was time to take action. This was not what the sisters of Antianeira were supposed to be like. Growl rumbled loudly in her throat and she raced out from the bush and came to a stop right on top of the couple, snapping her teeth at the male. Hackles raised and lips curled back in a snarl she addressed Taiyou even though her attention was focused on the male. "What are you doing out here? You think this is some kind of joke?"

Taiyou was getting close to drifting off to sleep when a large furry shape suddenly jumped in front of her. She yelped and then snarled instinctively as she got up, her fur bristling as her male friend cowered next to her. When she recognized Varia, the head of the Warriors, her eyes widened and she snapped her jaws closed quick and lowered her tail. Her fur was still bristled and she stood her ground, but otherwise her posture was slightly submissive.
The cowering male gulped up at the female that had so easily cowed Taiyou. he gulped and made sure not to look into her eyes. "I...was passing through...and Taiyou found me...I was going to leave today..." He squeaks.

That reaction from Taiyou would be dealt with later, but for now this male was the one who would feel Varia's wrath. Snarling once more at the males words. "Passing through, yet staying in a den that was not here before?" It was a bold lie to have told her, Varia could smell how strong the males scent was in this area, he had been around for days and it pissed her off that none of the patrols had picked up on it. Of course if Taiyou had made sure she was the only one to patrol out here it would have easily been missed. Another thing to be checked out later and corrected.
Varia did not wish to know what the males answer was, as far as she was concerned he was invading on their lands, even if they were currently beyond the border. Lunging forward Varia snapped her jaws towards the males neck, hoping for a quick kill by breaking his spine, but if he fought back she would be more than willing to give him one last fight in his life. Either way, this male would die today, here and by her teeth and claws.

Taiyou was stunned at this. "Varia! Please! I will chase him off!" She barks, rooted to spot despite her fierce desire to help her male friend. Her muscles seem to groan with the strain as she leans forward, but she doesn't want to be killed herself or ruin her chances of being in the pack.
The male snarls viciously and rolls onto his back to try and kick her belly with his hind legs, grunting as he jerks his head back in time so that her jaws only snap down on his loose fur. he might be scrawny, but he seemed like a scrapper.

"Silence!" She yelled at Taiyou, though her eyes remained glued to the male. She didn't have time to argue with her right now anyways, what was the point to chasing him off when she had been caught in the act of being nice to him. No, this was Varia's problem now. Her growl grew louder as the male had the guts to try to fight back. The kick to her stomach did nothing but anger her more, she hadn't even bothered to get out of the way because he was not that large. With him on his back now he was more prone to her, and Varia once again snapped at him, this time aiming for the throat, while lifting her one front leg to rake her claws across his now exposed underbelly.

Taiyou shuts up at the command, years of discipline training in her old pack making her sit down and bow her head to the higher ranking female. The snarls twisted her gut hard and made her feel like she was going to vomit, but she didn't move from her spot.
The male snarled again at the female wolf, not wanting to die without a fight. He brought his hind legs back again and attempted to rake his claws across her belly to try and rip her guts out, but the bite to the throat caught him dead on and he brought his forelegs up to push at the knee on Varia's forelegs to try and make her buckle them.

The satisfaction of gripping his throat tightly in her jaws was matched to no other. As he pushed against her forelegs Varia merely tightened the grip she has on his throat and raises herself up, so her weight in on her back legs. Small tricks like this were learned throughout years of battling a variety of different enemies. There wasn't a fight Varia couldn't win, but if that day came she knew she would die a warrior death. But that would not be today, for this male did not even begin to match her fighting skills. Then she takes the opportunity to give her hear a few violent shakes before placing her front paws back on the ground. Eyes ticked to Taiyou for a moment, almost daring her to come and interfere now. But then her attention quickly returned to the male, who was still clutched in her jaws. She could taste his blood and it was refreshing, it had been a long time since Varia got the pleasure of killing a wolf, especially a male wolf.

A small groan escapes Taiyou's throat, and she was actually getting up to defend her male friend when she heard him let out a gurgling breath and die. The female was stunned as she stared at his body, then her eyes turned steely and without emotion. She didn't know what to think or do. Her training was forcing her to listen to her superior, but her instincts were raging at her to defend her friend's death. Cold fury rolled off her in waves, but she did not speak as her eyes were glued to the dead male's body.

Varia kept her grip on the males throat for a few moments after his last breath had escaped him. She wanted to make damn sure he was good and dead. Finally letting the males limp body fall to the ground Varia turned her attention back to Taiyou. Stepping towards her she growled once more. "Is this what you think a sister of Antianeira is supposed to be doing, sneaking off to cuddle with a male?" Taiyou had made a fatal mistake today, but Varia would not take the life of a sister, not for this. Other circumstances may call for such a punishment, such as turning against one's Queen, but not this. Of course that could change based upon Taiyou's answer. "They are beneath us! You dishonor us with this sneaking around."

Taiyou gritted her teeth, her eyes still steely looking as she focused her gaze to her chest, noting she had a spot of blood on it. "I am sorry Head Warrior." She says very slowly and with great effort. "It...it won't happen again." She mutters, her ears flat against her skull. Oh, she felt the raging desire to leap forward and rip her throat out. She was quivering slightly, but that could be easily mistaken for fear instead of the anger it actually was.

Taking a few steps forward Varia now stood directly in front of Taiyou, looking down upon the light colored female. "I had best not, or you can join them in death." She growled and lowered her head slightly. "Perhaps you would like to dispose of the body, we wouldn't want it attracting unwanted vermin." She suggested, then straightened back up. Sure that was a job that a slave should be doing, but perhaps burying this male would drive the point home that Varia would not stand for such actions from her warriors.

Taiyou stiffened, catching what the implication meant and understanding. "Yes...Head Warrior..." She mumbles, keeping her eyes averted from her as she takes one step towards the body, her fur still slightly bristled. Every movement and word was agonizing to her as stared at the dead body of the male who'd she'd been cuddling just a few minutes ago. The tip of her tail flicked from side to side, but otherwise she seemed to be completely obedient.

"Good." She replied sharply, then took a step back casting her gaze at the body. His blood was still tingling her taste buds, but the fun was over. Returning her eyes to Taiyou she spoke once more. "Bury him in the den, it will prevent it from being used again." Lowering herself down on her haunches she let out a yawn, almost mocking the entire fight that had just happened. "I will stay and watch you to make sure the job gets done."

Taiyou shot the other female a dark look, then stared down at the body of the male. She pauses for a moment above him, saying a small prayer for him and that she was sorry it came to this. Then she gently grabs his scruff and lifts his frail body up, not wanting to drag him across the ground. It took some effort, but she managed to do it. The smell of death and fear filled her nose and she wrinkled it, repulsed by the smell. She awkwardly lowered him into the hole that was his den and kicked dirt over it until he was buried. Then she returned her gaze to Varia's chest area. "I have completed my task Head Warrior." She says firmly between tightly grit teeth. Her tail flicked more angrily from side to side and she'd snort occasionally to try and get the smell of death out of her nose.
