Elphaba slid from the trees, she'd watched Faenaro's snide remarks but chose not to comment on them. Dipping her chocolate colored muzzle to Devvyl and Selia her grass green eyes locked onto each of theirs, acknowledging the importance of this meeting for all the wolves. Quietly, she took a seat near outside the den, near where Selia was coming out of the den. Her fluffed tail curled about her in a bit of a flourish, and she gently nudged her friend, hoping she was feeling a bit better. "Devvyl didn't just decide to be Alpha, Faenaro," Elphaba explained to the younger wolf, her voice lacking the majority of her previous childish spite..for now. "He's been earning our respect since we were pups."

Devvyl had leaned over to give Selia a soft lick upon her muzzle, just as he had done earlier... and turned to see Elphaba approach from the bushes. His heart wrenched in guilt, but perhaps Elphaba hadn't seen.. And then she spoke. Devvyl wished he could thank Elphaba, but it would do no good in the position he was in right now.
He turned his back on Feanaro. You assume too much, Feanaro. Think what you will, and do what you will. He didn't look back. I care not. He started walking away, towards the trees beyond the clearing, but keeping an ear swiveled back to listen for any who might have a last word.

"I said shut up!" She snapped back towards them, giving a wicked snarl through her gritted fangs, which were bared towards both of the males. Elphaba's nudge wasn't felt, and the comforting lick to her muzzle was thrown aside for the time being. She had never been one to show aggression towards any of her friends...but...it was just overwhelming her. She was beginning to break away from what she used to be, not so puppy-like.
"Drop it. If we cant get along, there's no pack. If there's no pack, then we're all screwed." She said bitterly, and lowly. "I dont know about you two, Feanaro...Devvyl. But I have a pup to care for, he comes first. He will be safe."

The smirk faded into a snarl... he hated it that they had used that excuse... of course he didn't decide... nothing had been decided. He was willing to fight to the death for it, that is- if he didn't have nother life to be watching. He let out a slow sigh, his angry expression slowly fading back into the sullen one. He wouldn't feel guilty for his behavior... he and the crimson male were bound to have a conflict sooner or later. He couldn't hurt his sister... and he couldn't hurt Selia. Slowly, he turned towards where his little sister played for the moment.... she would be safe there for now. An enraged snarl and bark fled his throat as he turned and bolted. All pain escaped his body as he ran, only anger had his body, driving him forward. His heart drove him away- he wouldn't fight... it would only cause more hate to him. The brown female wouldn't stay with him, Selia would hate him, and his sister would fear him for what he had done.

Elphaba gave a soft whine, barely audible even to Selia. Her ears folded back meekly. She hated to see her friend like this, and she didn't know what to do. Forming a pack was proving to be a stressful thing.
The aforementioned pup had as usual, shown up quite suddenly and without any explanation. He ducked under Selia's paw, wiggling under to brush his body against her chest mane. He sat, cradled between her strong legs, and snuggled his nose into her soft fur, wanting her to stop being angry. He didn't understand.
Elphie felt a slight jealousy towards the pup at her friend's side, but quickly pushed it aside. She watched Faenaro turn and run, but no triumphant smirk appeared on her lips. She was too deep in thought.

Devvyl turned, his yellow eyes wide in a O_O. He took the few steps toward Selia and Elphaba, his ears half-laid back, not caring now what Feanaro thought of him... But Feanaro was gone, anyway.
Look, Selia... I'm sorry. I got carried away. I was merely trying to prove a point... but he trailed off, realizing that his exuses were just that. Excuses.

She would freeze at the sight of Feanaro running off..she completely tensed up at the brush of air that followed his movements. Lips hid her large fangs once more, and she sighed heavily...knowing she had most likely startled them. Motherly instinct, ne? She looked down at Yero, and gave a weak smile, giving a quick lick to his head to show that she was okay now. "I understand..." She replied, and picked up the pup momentarily, lucky he was just small enough to do so, and sat herself beside Elphaba. Setting Yero back down in the cradle of her paws, she looked up to them both.
"I just want everyone to be okay...give Feanaro a chance, he's had it hard like all of us. I know he just wants whats best for his pup and the pack."

Yero settled into Selia, watching with a quiet respect for what was going on. Elphaba turned to each of her friends and smiled. "Hey," she said, tongue lolling a little in a more casual manner. "We three've stuck together this long. We'll figure it all out with Faenaro and the pups." She planted her large paws firmly on the ground, as if a strong hold strengthened her statement: "We don't have to let anything come between us," It was clear that she was addressing numerous things.

Devvyl nodded, to both of them. We'll work it out, he echoed softly.
I have to go, he told them, and he rose. I'll see you guys later. He turned once more and walked away, to think. For the time being, he wanted to be alone.

Elphie gave a tiny half smile to Devvyl's receding form. She shook her head lightly and turned to her pack-sister. "I'm pretty hungry," she confessed. "I'm gonna see if I can find a rabbit or deer," She wagged her tail in a couple beats. "I'll see you later,"

She nodded to her friend, as well, and smiled lightly. She nodded, and would stand up, as well, moving slowly before yipping towards her pup. She, too, was hungry..and had a terrible craving for rabbit. She'd hunt a few down for her and her pup she had adopted..it seemed everything would be okay, now. She hoped for this, at least.
