Tobias careened around a corner to where the pack was staying. Relief flooded through him that he had found them! Panting he came to a halt, to catch his breath. Surveying the area, he saw most of the pack members, including Gizmo. But he didn't see Kamali anywhere! And the pack had such a sombre air... the iron fist of panic gripped his heart.
"Kamali! KAMALI!" he yelled hoarsely, Hoping with all his heart what he thought was not true.

"I am sure Tobias will find his way to you," she said, noticing that another was quickly approaching, the figure's energy sense recogniably Tabias'. Lera thought for a bit as she listened to Kamali's woes and licked his head once more as he moved against her side. Then Kamali brought up the subject of pups. If a wolf could blush, Lera would have been beat red. She had been unaware that Haku had said anything to the pack yet, and it was till to early to tell, even if mind energy sources were appearing on her mind-map, energies that were indeed, very very close to her, inside of her even.
"Y-Yes, I am," she said, a large smile appearing on her face and her tail starting to wag. Lera enjoyed it when conversation was brought up about her, because it rarely did.

Kamali beamed up at her, snuggling into his side. "That is wonderful. I wil have more playmates.." his ears pricked and his head whipped around as he heard the call of his brother. He spotted him and looked shocked "Lera you are amazing!" he breathed, as he lept up, dashing toward Tobias, yipping happily.
Then he realized Tobias was bigger and he stumbled a little, stairing at his older brother in awe. He then grinned, running back to lera and licking at her paws, trying to stand high enough to get a few licks at her mug. "Thank you so much.." he muttered, racing back to Tobias.
His sadness and worry was replaced by happiness of seeing his sibling, if just for now.

Lexi glances back over her shoulder as she hears a pups shouts from behind them, experiencing a brief very confused thought that the ghost of Sable though that confusion doesn't last long as Tobias comes bounding up to join the pack, joining the green pup.
It's a small bright point in the tense mood the pack is in, though Lexi wonders how he got past the humans without being scented. Is this pup welcome when the last was not? She doesn't know yet, but she does turn her head to look for the crow again, an uncertain look on her face.

Tobias tackled his brother in a frenzy of relief and happiness that his brother was alive. He felt so relieved!
"Brother! Kamali!!! I thought you'd..." he began then stopped, confused as to who it was that he'd seen. He wished a fate like that unto nobody, be them two-leggeds or wolf.
((Ack, have to go now! Supper! Bye!))

Kamali was almost crushed under Tobias. He'd been small to begin with, and having his older brother, and grown as well, tackle him was bound to make him get crushed a little. He didn't care though, as he nuzzled and licked into tobias' fur and mug. "Im so glad you found us!"

Lera smiled both physcially and inwardly as Tobias appeared, and met up with Kamali. She rose once more and slowly moved over to Lexi, who seemed quite distraught and confused. "Heh, you ok Lexi?" she said rather casually dispite rising her voice at the young she-wolf just moments ago.

Lexi jumps slightly at Lera's voice, not realizing she's started to become so accustomed to being lecutred by Feanaro every time he raises his head that concern sounds strange from an adult wolf.
"Yes! I'm fine..." She responds after a startled moment, trying to compose herself. "It's that crow...I keep looking for it. It was following us...The one that travels with Feanaro." She flicks her ear slightly, the one the crow bit a few days ago. The beak didn't close enough to draw blood but it had left a painful red mark for hours. "I think it reports to him...somehow. But I haven't seen it for a little bit. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't there...I've no idea how to catch a crow." She jokes the last bit, trying to make it sound funnier than she feels like it is. "What he says about me...Feanaro...is he right? Am I as horrible as he says?" She paws at her own nose, trying to get rid of the blood stains there. "I don't want him to be right..."

"He's dead wrong Lexi. You're much better than he thinks you are." Giving her a small smile, he would nod slowly. "You're very important to all of us.. We've all had bad pasts.. Most of our old packs dead.. But everyone deserves a second chance at happiness.." Nodding, he would simple move to plop down next to Lera.
"You mean a lot to all of us Lexi, and were would we be without you?" Moving to lick the blood off her nose, he would then sit next to her, and nuzzle her softly. "Just because you did one bad thing, doesn't mean you're a bad wolf."

"The crows?" Lera asked. She was a seer and could easily contact or confuse them with her mind. The crows were clever, but she had mental connectings, which were twice as clever, not to mention strong. Lera listened as she continued her explination. "Feanaro is mad, crazy. He speaks nothing of madness to himself. If he dares threaten this pack once more then he'll have to answer to me," she grined at Lexi, but the fact was, that if Lera had pups it would take her out of actio for a while. "Faenaro says nothing but lies," she continued, "for you are niether," she finnished and noticed that Lexi's face was still tained by the lifeblood or Sable and was glad that Haku came over to groom her face for her. Lera loathed the taste of wolf blood: it sickened her.
"Hello Haku," she said as he finnished and rubber her head into his neckfur. X3

Tobias quickly got off of Kamali, realizing he was crushing his brother. Sheepishly, he curled his tail around him, feeling a bit foolish for being so frantic. But for that moment he had thought... It was just so frightening!
"I was afraid... I was afraid something had happened. To you." he explained, "I came across a..." He shuddered at the grotesque thought, "A corpse, you see, a poor pup. It frightened me, because you're pack's smell was strongly associated with it and I thought it may have been you. Or Gizmo. Or anyone of this pack. It was so... Horrible!"
He felt as if he'd vomit again, as the memory of the smell filled his nostrils.
"Then I smelled the two-leggeds, and, well..." He looked down, hoping he didn't have to explain to his own brother what he meant. Flickers of his own past darted through his mind. Pictures of the dead wolves, and that strong stench of death, the smell that seemed to burn your eyes and skin as well as your nose.

Kamali tensed and snuggled into his brother. "That's cause it was a traitor to our pack and we killed him.." he explained, miserably and quietly.
"No, I won't ever go near two legs, I am sorry I did not get to say good bye.. but you are here now!" He smiled up at him. "Does that mean you will be staying?

"Thank you..." Lexi says earnestly, as Haku helps her wash the blood from her fur. She's killed rabbits before, and helped bring down an deer once, when she was still with Feanaro, but this was completely different somehow. There's no blind rage, no overwhelming memory of terror in killing a deer. "I'm sorry...the things he said just sort of stick with you." She tries to think of a way to apologize for what now feels like a weakness, but can't think of how to say it. She just feels foolish for bringing it up.

Lera looked to Lexi and smiled happyily, and then Back to Haku. It was about time that they were back on the move. She looked to Haku and came close to him, whispering in his ear, "howl with me." Lera craned her head back and her voice echoed through the air, her voice reaching the stars. She would hope the whole pack would unit in the howl, and bring them closer, not only physically, but emotionally.

He listened to what she said and gave a small nod. She always had the best ideas. Raising his head, he would howl with her, trying to see if the pack would join in or not. He let his voice raise high, then took a deep breath to realase another howl. They were howling to the moon, they were begging the gods to help their pack, they were doing so many things at once. And it made them whole.. it made them A pack, instead off just a group of wolves.
