Welcome to Gaia! ::

Frostridge had noticed their arrival from her high advantage; as they neared, she bowed her head towards her chest once in a nod of respect to Red-fur. The strange blood-stained female beside her spoke slowly, her eyes fixated on the two scratches now beginning to scab over. "What...did..you..kill?"

They wished for an explanation of her slight damage. Frostridge began to form a reply when two howls broke through the evening air. She fairly jumped at the sound, instinctively reaching for her dagger before relaxing. Had to remember it was a form of communication; still seemed so strange to her though-

Frost jumped at Streak's approach and subsequent glow- an unintentional snarl of surprise and wariness erupted from her throat as instinct caused her to whirl away from him, glaring at him suspiciously. After a moment of tense observation she allowed herself to calm down. No harm had come from the sudden emission of light, and he genuinely seemed as surprised as she did.

In an effort to apologize for her outburst she sat down, quirking her head at him in slight confusion, before shaking it, her expression taking a more serious tone. "Bad-Flesh Bird. Me kill. No danger, now." It was a crude attempt at a report, but she tried her hardest, the words still uneasy on her tongue. "Lands, dead." she jerked her head in the direction they intended to travel, her expression grim. "Very hard travel."

Her foreleg was burning with its old wound and she nuzzled it with a single lick, praying it wasn't becoming infected.

Ember looked up at the others as they came up to them, she nodded to Frost when she had...sort of explained that she had killed a bird that was infected. Ember smiled at her, she could tell that Frost was slowly beginning to understand the speech of a wolf. Ember sat down to wait for what the alphas wanted to do, she stared at a small lizard and watched it writhe in pain as she made it think its legs were breaking.

Ember glared at Frost when she stepped in the way, she even dared to threaten her with the knife and that made Ember feel unsafe. The wolf thought that this creature shouldn't be tortured, It was going to be my snack soon anyways. Embers eyes went wide as the knife was pressed closer to her, on automatic instincts she got into Frost's mind and made her think that her back leg was about to explode. Ember was scared and she was trying to protect herself.

Ember saw the chain wrap out of the knife and she freaked out even more. She began to concentrate harder, and began to break through Frost's defenses. Ember was able to tell that the wolf relied on the knife in her mouth, so instead of attacking the leg she began to attack the jaw with her mind. She made Frost think that her bottom jaw was being pulled from its joints. The blood slowly began to ripple across her back, but she held it back. All this concentrating was making Ember very tired, but she knew the she-wolf was already hurt before and had to give up soon. Ever slowly began backing up every time the she-wolf got closer.

The sudden shift of pain from her leg to her jaw made her drop her blade, as the tendons seemed to be splitting from the bone- Just a trick, don't feel it, move- instead surged forward, planning to use her momentum to knock her mental attacker off her feet as she felt the inflicted agony scratch at her weakening mental barriers- It was through her sheer willpower alone and endless times of forced focus that made her press on. There was no time to wonder about how this abomination could infiltrate her mind, all thoughts shut out save for the need to take this abnormal wolf down, and quickly.

Her bionetics flared with faint blue light, flooding her body with renewed strength even as the pain rippled anew with her heightened sensitivity making her vision spotty. Ready to shred her opponent apart with her fangs alone if needed, she sped like a flash of white lightning, closing the distance till she could see each individual hair flushed with blood-

Twin-Tails suddenly dashed between them, her voice a snarl of reprimand.
Her words were like static to Frost's ears, unintelligible, as adrenaline and a cool rage flooded her senses.

However, she skidded to a stop, the glowing marks beneath her skin shutting off instantly and the energy flooded away. The pain faded from her jaw, as well as the almost robotic like track her mind had been taking. She had shown too much; they knew now she was not as they were, that she was...not normal. Silently, she cursed her lack of judgement in risking Overcharge during the heat of the moment.

Absentmindedly she noticed that in their struggle, the little lizard had gotten away and some part of her was at least glad for that, since it seemed that she had indeed offended in some way the wolf culture and there was a very good chance they all might turn on her at this point.

Silently, she evaluated the Blooded one, with eyes that revealed no emotion, and then the Twin-tails, waiting for their judgement and debating if she should just flee should their favor look like it was turning against her.

[As Scarlett]
Scarlett eyed the two wolves, one on each side of her. Ember seemed honest enough when she apologized. The bio-mutt however still seemed unable to understand. Being trained as the perfect pretty guard dog had some advantages. Though Scarlett was not able to speak perfectly she was able to make some human words, "Calm. u. sellf." Not perfect but it was difficult to produce human's sounds with a wolf's mouth.


[As Bullet]
Bullet had dozed off as she laid beside Kuro. She was awoken to the strange sounds coming from Scarlett. Then she noticed the tension between the trio. Getting up she moved over to Ember and looked her over, she didn't seem damaged from a fight so hopefully it had only been a disagreement. "You all okay?" she looked to Frost as well but knew the wolf didn't understand the way the pack life worked. She tilted her head and gestured to the wolf with her nose, trying to see if she was okay too.
