"You're just as hurt as I am. No need to help like that. We'll support each other," Psyche told him, letting him lean against her while she leaned against him, moving around behind her old den, towards the forest a little ways where their scent was hidden by the wind. She usually hunted there, since normal wolves didn't search for her there. She had only been found twice, and that had been a long time ago. She knew that they would be safe there.
Relativly safe, at least. For she also did not know that Trent was watching over them. She was just... relieved that everything was almost over. Now they just needed to recover. And wherever Mizer went, if he would let her, she would follow.

Mizer was glad to be able to lean against Psyche. The two wounded wolves made their way to a new area. This place felt safe to him. He was sure that no wolf who came to win over Psyche would look here. It was a normal forest area. Nothing special about it at all. He supposed that was what made it so great for hiding. No one ever looked in the places that were not special.
He knelt down in a patch of bushes. He was sure the scent from the pine tree's and pushes would hide there cent. It was natures own protection. Sap had leaked down from the pine tree's upon the ground. Perfect for coving ones musk. He was glad for this blessing.
He would protect Psyche the best he could, even if it killed him. No other wolf could have her and no animal could eat her with out him having a say in it. He would kill any other animal that even looked at psyche funny.
Trent entered the area where the wolves previously laid. There was no trace of them now. Grasping two of the dead wolf bodies that sort of resembled the two, he dragged them to the den. The stench of roting flesh was a bit hard to bare but he did so. Taking flint now, which he carried in his sash, he burnt the bodies. Hoping if any other wolves past through looking for Psyche, they would come to the conclusion they were killed.
After doing so Trent dissolved back into the forest. He had confidence in his baby brother from now. Mizer could handle him self now and so could Psyche.

Psyche smiled and lay down under the tree next to Mizer. She thought, for a moment, that she saw smoke coming from her old den, but she had the distinct feeling that even if it burnt down, she wouldn't care. She didn't need that place anymore. That place full of bodies... she didn't ever want to go back. She didn't want that ever again. That life was done now. Forever.
"Mizer... you said before that I could chose whether or not I wanted to stay with you. I've decided. I want to stay with you, if you'll still let me." She left unspoken: Because with you I feel safe. She knew she loved him, the curse dictated that without her needing to achknowledge it. But still... she wanted to get to know him better. Know the wolf she would love... it sounded like a reasonable plan. Her father had never given her that opperunity. Not that she would have let him.
The reason he had left, after all, was because he had known that she would never love him back. He had destroyed everything she had ever loved. Now she had found someone new... she hoped.

Mizer's heart gave a loud ba-dum ba-dum sound. Pounding fast now, his hot breathing also seemed to quicken. What was he feeling right now? It felt good, but he had never felt like this. She wanted to stay with him? Was this... was this truly love? Had he fallen fast head over paws for this female? He did not know because Mizer had never given anyone the chance to get that close to him before.
The silence was broken by a stronger voice. "Of course," He said, surprised to hear his voice recover some to reply to this. Had he fallen for this wolf? He was not sure. "Other wise," He said with a smirk, "I would have lagged behind you." He said it in a kidding manner, but really it was not far from the truth. He liked this female.
The smoke rising from the old den which they had just been to a little while ago sparked his attention. He watched as black smoke dissolved into the stratosphere. Strange. Fire? He wondered how that had happened. Was the Goddess truly on their side?

Psyche followed his gaze, her own heart fluttering happily that he hadn't turned her down. That she could stay with him. That she could love him. That they could be together... her home was burning, she could tell that now. All those bodies, that stone den... gone. She really was free. Gone forever. She couldn't go back even if she wanted to now. Which she didn't. She wanted to go wherever Mizer went.
"Lagged behind me? Well, that wouldn't have been much fun. I probably would have just wandered in circles somewhere." She turned and looked at him, away from the burning bodies of her home, "So tell me Blue-Boy, what are you really like? I'm willing to bet that you didn't learn to fight in forest brawls." Though of course... she had learned to fight that way.

Forest brawls, Psyche became more intresting every moment. A great fighter, tough and caring. She was truly an amazing wolf.
"Well," Mizer said taking a breath, "A long time ago," really it was not to long ago. Mizer was a pretty young wolf still, "There was a pack of not the strongest wolves, but the quickest. They would travel through the shadow's and use their stealth to their advantage. A pack of spies and assassins with a softer side of artists as well." He paused a moment taking a breath. He still had a hard time believing everyone he knew was dead. It was the hardest part of the story to tell, "On one unlucky night of a festival the pack was killed. All except for me and my brother Trent." He paused again. He knew that Trent said something about possible survivors, though he doubted this. "The pack now thrives again, but not like how it used to. I learned how to fight from my packs ways." He was proud of his pack, even though he did not like his brother Trent for selfish reasons. He left the part of the story out where he had tried to kill Trent on more then one occasion.

"I see. Are you part of the new pack now then? Is that where you're headed?" Psyche asked, mostly because she was curious. A pack of strong wolves for her to meet. That would be interesting. That would be very interesting, after all, free of her curse or no, she hated the weak, or pitied them. She would never love and protect them ever again. Because the weak died and left her alone to face her curse with nothing... nothing at all.

In all truth Mizer was part of the new pack more then he was with the old pack. His own father had banished him. Though, he did deserve such a harsh punishment, he still had malice that lingered in his soul towards Trent.
"I guess you could say that," Mizer's white and yellow eyes were now fixated on the dark white and purple wolf. He wondered what she was thinking about.

"Are you not fond of them?" Psyche asked, tilting her head to the side, wondering the exact same thing that Mizer was wondering. What was he thinking? She knew almost nothing about him really... but she cared for him all the same. He had almost sacrificed everything to keep a promise to her.
That was enough.

Mizer shook his head, "Not that I am not found of them," He said with a sigh. Really it had been Trent he was not found of, yet, at the same time he loved his brother. Complicated, very complicated. Being rivals with someone who was supposed to be close to you often was.
Mizer gave her a smile, "I love my pack. I just dont agree with the leader." He finally replied giving her a straight answer.

"Ah. I can see how that might be... difficult," Psyche nodded in agreement, though that made her head scream in protest, so she stopped. Being this badly hurt was becomming an annoyance, and the effct pf being happy was starting to wear off to just hurting.
"I've never been in a pack before, so I wouldn't know."

The pain was an extreme annoyance to Mizer as well. Its hot white stinging that worked its way around his entire body, but he did not mind it. He would endure any amount of pain to keep a promise. Even more so for Psyche. Her courage in her words, even when she had her curse, inspired him. Now he would not let her go for the world. They were still strangers to each other, yet to Mizer, he felt that he had known Psyche even longer.
"If you want..." Mizer's eyes were fixated on Psyche again. "You can join mine." Mizer knew what it felt like to not be part of anything. The truth was he hated his banishment mostly for just that. Not feeling like you belonged. It was even worse once you knew what it felt like and had lost it.

Psyche blinked, at first at a loss as to what she could say to him. Join a pack? She had never done that before... been part of something else... anything other than her own life, with her family and on her own. To be a part of a pack, with all those different wolves... could she do it? If Mizer was there with her, she found the answer to be suprisingly simple.
"Yes... I think I would like that. I think I would like that a lot," She grinned at him, "Wherever you go, I'll be there with you to back you up. That is my promise now. You've kept yours, now I'll keep mine. I'll always be there for you, and I'll always be on your side." And she meant it. An ally... even if he didn't love her back, she would be there to protect him.

Mizer's mind was now distracted from the pain. She wanted to beside him, she had just promised. No one had ever told him that they wanted to beside him, stay with him where ever he went. It was a queer feeling that was now finding its way up around Mizer's chest. A chocking feeling that was pleasant. He wanted to beside her in all time now, what ever he was feeling she was the cause of it and he never wanted to see it go away. Even though they did not know each other that well, Mizer felt that he could follow her to the darkest ends of the world and back. He did not say anything just lifted his muzzle over her neck and rested. Soft and warm fur greeted him as he did so. He closed his eyes.
"Guess we should rest some more," He said with a smile curling on his maw.

((Your new wolf is awsome PS))
Psyche hadn't really expected an answer, so she mereky smiled and lay down, content to be with him. To stay with him. Mizer, her savior. Her love, whom she would follow anywhere, even to the depths of the underworld. He was all she had now. All she felt like she had to protect and love. Really, he was, since she had abandoned everything else and her family was gone.
Could she be normal now? Live a life where she could finally do as she pleased? It was her deepest wish for that... though, she was a fighter by nature and she doubted that would ever change. As long as it kept Mizer by her side, she found she didn't really care what she did. She had never really thought that far ahead.
"Yes... we should rest I suppose."
