Jane addressed her mate without turning her eyes from Cypher. "We have an intruder John. One who doesn't seem to understand the meaning of 'go away'."

John slowly dragged himself to his paws, yawning the whole way.
"Sweetheart, if I wanted to kill you...I would have already. I'm not here to cause any trouble, sheesh."

"If you had wanted to kill me, you'd have been dead before you finished your first sentence," the female growled. Her voice dropping to a slightly calmer tone, Jane continued. "You say you don't want to cause touble, and yet you slink around sneaking up on pups in the middle of the night..."

"Oh please..."
The strange pup rolled his eyes, moving into the shadows for a moment. He was never truely hidden however, the odd green markings always betraying his presence. Soon enough he walked back out, eyeing them once more.
"I was just exploring..."
John yawned, just wanting to go back to sleep.
"Mmrph Jane...he's not going to do anything..."

"Well I'm sure you have more ground to cover before the end of the night...." Jane said, biting back any further response as she turned her attention to John. "Then why is he still here?" she growled.

"Because you're talking to him..."
John sighed, collapsing back to the ground in a tired heap.
"Actually, I'm rather tired. So no, I won't be covering any more ground."
Cypher yawned slightly, slowly curling up in the grass, a safe distance from the two.

"What are you doing?! You can't sleep here!" Jane protested.

The oddly marked wings of the pup curled around his body slightly, the male giving no indication he heard, or even cared about, what Jane had said.
John gave a yawn, the black pup's eyes slowly shutting.

Snarling, Jane slowly returned to John's side and slumped to the ground, her eyes never faultering from the cold gaze they held on Cypher. It was apparent to her now that the only way to get rid of the arrogent pup was to kill him. Already tired, she felt like neither waisting the time nor the energy on this one to do so. Instead she would simply have to keep an eye, or better yet..two, on him for the remainder of the night. With a slight yawn, the female settled in for a restless night.

Cypher was already sound asleep.
John snuggled into his mate a bit, the pup spreading his wings over the female once more.

The female stayed awake, her gaze never turning from the newcomer. Hopefully he would move on the next morning, but until then, he wasn't going to get the drop on either of them.

Morning soon came, and the black pup stirred to life once more. A wide yawn escaped his maw before John opened his eyes, the pup trying to blink away the sleepiness.
Cypher meanwhile, was nowhere in sight. Perhaps he had left?

As the sun peeked over the horizon that morning, Jane's will had finally failed her. She lay dozing now beneath John's outspread wing, clueless as to where their visitor had escaped to.

John blinked at his sleeping mate, smirking a bit. Another yawn escaped him before the pup snuggled her.
"Jane...?"

Jane's head rose groggily. "Mmrph?" she groaned. As her head began to clear, she realized with alarm what had happened. Her eyes shot to the empty spot where Cypher once lay. "Where is he?!"
