Welcome to Gaia! ::

Streak noticed that spots had paused awaiting his passage through the gap. He nodded as he continued forward to poke his head through. His pushed through wiggling and slithering until he popped out on the other side. His eyes took in the amazing view almost shocked to see life once again.This place seemed untouched by time as he signaled to Scarlett with his unilaterally long tail for her to come in. Padding forward he noticed the poor white wolf had exhausted herself to the point of collapse. He crouched low next to her and watched as bullet approached the beast that Frost explained before. "Rest, now." Streak said to the female softly with a tone of reassurance. "We'll take it from here." He crept forward, his streaked fur hidden among the camouflage of the tall grass. He stopped alongside the red furred wolf and awaited the arrival of his female, color counterpart.

Scarlett moved into formation with the female alpha and the male. This wouldn't be too difficult for the three of them. As the cold female took a nap Scarlett had to fight back her thoughts. She couldn't let her loathing of humans distract her from real food.

"I was trained to race, I'll chase them down and find the weakest. I'll need both your help to bring it down though." Scarlett spoke as she walked past them. Moving into stealth was too easy with the tall bladed grass. Standing straight only her head would appear over it.

Scarlett moved slowly until she was close enough to hear their hearts beating next to her. The prey knew the wolves had come for them. Like white lightning Scarlett flew out of the grass frightening the large animals. Weaving in and out, slowing down to give them hope just to pick up speed and be right behind them again.

After a good while of chasing them Scarlett picked out a large buck. The sprawling silvery crown upon his head showed he was an elder, he was nearing his natural time. Blocking him from rejoining his heard he had no choice but to keep running. The heard left him behind as they passed along the lake and onto safety. Scarlett moved him back near the other wolves. He was getting tired, beginning to slow down. Scarlett too was reaching her limit. Even though the humans raced her alongside greyhounds, the races weren't long lasting. The buck began to limp, he must have twisted his leg funny. He was good as dead now.

Fairly close to the others now, Scarlett tried to dart to the other side of him but the creature was still aware. He put all his remaining strength into his rear legs, a sharp curved hoof met her skull. It through her back and she laid in the grass for a moment. Catching her breath quickly she gave no mercy now. Her legs sent her flying through the grass and she locked her jaws into his rear leg. Fangs sunk deep into the pelt. Putting all her weight into the movements she shook her head violently. Sparks of pain streamed across her eyes. The others would come and finish the job. Her sight began to get spotty, thankfully the beast wasn’t fighting to much anymore. He had accepted his fate, he knew death would find him soon.

Bullet watched the spotted wolf with awe. She would have never pinned such a large wolf to be that fast moving. The buck kicked her and sent Bullet flying down the hill. Scarlett got up fast and got back to the elk. Fangs clamped into flesh from the white one. Bullet was right there, she locked her jaws in the animal's throat and pulled it's head to the ground. It was old, and seemed to accept it's death. Still it tried to stand, to shake them off, but they had a good grip and wouldn't let go until the thing was dead. Her teeth sunk deep and soon punctured the best main vain. A final breath and the body went still.

Haulting at the slick gap with-in the heightened gravel, Subliminal curiously scented it. They went through here that's for sure.. He thought contently. Sizing up his muscular build then peering back over at the gap, he couldn't help but realize he wouldn't fit, let alone risk getting stuck. Suspiring faintly, he back-stepped a tad; options slowly rising to nothing. The scent of water and elk teased his abdominal region chantly and couldn't help but look at Loki. "Listen.. I don't know if you can understand me but, this is where our roads split. The other wolves are just past this crevace here," He motioned to it with his nares, " Inside, you'll come across other gifted wolves such as yourself.. I hope. Stay with them, i'm sure they wouldn't turn something like you down." His labrums slanted downward, the pup meant nothing but, sentiment got the better of him. "Be safe, Kid. Maybe i'll meet you when you're all grown up and not so.. Messy." He chuckled briefly recalling the urination he'd so reighteously received.

Loki finally seeming to grasp Subliminals dialogue, he bolted toward the brute whilst glissading his zenith against his chest, or what he could reach anyways. "Me miss you." Lokis eyes watered a tad as if he had just lost yet another friend. Curiously sniffing at the crevace, Loki looked back at the brute once more before slipping in, and began searching for the wolves.

Subliminal grunted faintly as an attempt to shake the emotion off. Better alert them just incase.. That pups nose probably isn't to good.. Planting his pedestals firmly against the surprisingly moist foliage, he tilted his craniul cavity back and emitted a howl that he'd hope to sweep the other side with faciley. Doing all he can do given his state, he lapped up the sorry excuses for puddles, and persisted to find a descent meal deep with-in the forrestrial realm; leaving the encounter with the pack for another time.

Scarlett's head began to hurt again, a howl from the other side of the stone wall. She lifted her head, it sounded vaguely familiar. Standing up wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. Subliminal was on the other side of the wall, but why would he fallow them here? Moving up the hill side took longer than it should have, her legs were still tired from the chase. At the top of the hill Bullet was leaving a piece of meat for the other white one. Bullet didn't seem to care what the male wanted on the other side as she quickly turned and ran back down the hill. Once at the top Scarlett went to the slim entrance. No one could be seen, maybe she was hearing things. Her nose twitched as she sniffed at the entrance, sure enough some other wolf had come through here. It had the scent of a pup, and a hint of Subliminal's scent as well. Fancy fur must not of wanted to take care of it, she thought to herself.

Scarlett had two pups of her own many years back, she didn't know where they were now. She lifted her head to the moon, are they even alive anymore? She didn't want to think about that, they made their own choices now. With a huff of frustrated sadness she looked around for the new comer. Not even positive there was a pup around, Scarlett was already going into over protective mother mode.

Fallowing the scent from the opening lead her to the rump of a pup. A slim smile pulled across her maw. Scarlett was going lifted her head and returned the howl, but that could scare the pup. Laying down behind the curious young Scarlett bumped him with her nose, unsure he could communicate with words yet.

The smell of blood made Frost's eyes snap open- The red-furred female dropped a large chunk of flesh before her; her eyes bright. For one sleep-hazed moment, she had nearly attacked, then remembered all that had occurred.

Without delay, she tore into the precious gift; the feel of big solid chunks of still warm meat sliding down her greedy gullet was euphorous. Within a second she had completely eaten the rather large offering. Strength from the food now stretching her starved belly flowed out to her every nerve, rekindling the flame of life within her that had begun to dwindle. She sat a moment to recover, feeling her biotics once more sputter to life-

Still tired, still injured, but not nearly as weak as before, she stood up with much less effort then before. A strange feeling of loyalty for her new leader was sprouting in her chest-

She padded down the hill to where the large kill had been left, still uneaten. Puzzled at first, it occurred to her that perhaps these were intended for the others they had left behind...

Frostridge drew her blade and silently began to split the carcass into more easily manageable parts- An idea of how to carry them was blossoming in her head. She looked around for a moment, before her eyes lit on a large dead tree- The inside had been completely hollowed out by decay, leaving a long half-tube like shape.

She went over and flipped it, before setting herself to task- she scraped the bits of rotten wood off with her weapon leaving behind a trough like sled, before giving a hard jerk and burying the blade deep into the wood on one end, lodging it securely. Her mouth still on the handle, she slid a canine expertly into the slotted gap- a tiny click and she drew it away like a second skin, a long chain coming along with it before looping it back through the hole she had made to create a sort of harness. She set it on the ground and admired her handiwork. It was a pretty crude sled, but would carry much more then each of them individually.

She began to load a few pieces of meat onto it, glancing at the others to see if he understood what she was doing- And suddenly feeling very self conscious with how decidedly "un-wolf" like her solution was.

Scarlett looked over her shoulder to the streaked one, "My name is Scarlett, not spots,"she said with a sigh." The wolf I traveled with earlier seems to have abandoned someone with us." She looked down at the pup again, she had already decided she would be the one to take care of him. He was her second chance. Scarlett forced herself to stay relaxed as human-smells came near. She looked over to her, the wolf just seemed curious. Scarlett was self conflicted about that wolf. They were similar; both from human villages. She just wasn't ready to be that close to her past again.

Something snapped in Scarlett's head, She's here for the wolves, she wants to take everyone to the humans, she will cause our deaths. It wasn't her own thoughts. Surprised at her head she needed to get away from the wolf. Standing up she bumped the puppy on the rump, "Let's go get some food kid." He might get lost in this tall grass,
Moving herself over him she bent her neck and picked the pup up. She didn't lift him high off the ground, not knowing anything about him she wasn't sure if he would be scared. If he stayed calm Scarlett would walk him down to the meat, if he didn't want to be carried then she would lead him down.
