Fiereza was certain she had found a dark one, the darkness spoke to him softly and he had the mind to listen, yet he was not corrupt the way she was. He had learned things, healing arts and the darkness had aided him in this good endeavor. She had watched a pink female come and bring him helpless prey, he had not killed but healed. This wolf then would be the one who could help her, to this wolf she would devote her service to. She would complete any task he willed, if he could teach her how to control the darkness inside, how to feel emotions once again.
Slowly she slipped into the river washing her pelt of the mud that had masked her scent and then she went to find him in his dark haven. Adolfo... The name of her only hope for salvation from the things that consumed her.

After having spoke with Alas and having spoken to Vianna, the male was starting to make plans for himself. He, even as a teen, was aiming his goal in life to help others. Wither that be in the since of watching his godchildren, keeping an eye on the packs territory for any border breeches, or just helping in the simple matter of healing.
Again the male was un-muddied and in his willow studying the herbs that Alas had shown him. He no longer paid any heed to the shadows as they hissed with the pink healer's presence. Instead, he listened for the simple notion of another dark pelted wolf. This one, he hadn't been quiet aware of for the shadows seemed to like her presence about, but they did keep the young male on his toes.
The sound of the crickets singing their song was like a melody that Adolfo had came to love. It surprised the male that in the cold air the little insects still seemed to sing, as for the Nighting Gale, he actually missed her sweet song, though she would return in the spring.
Stretching out his limbs, Adolfo stood up and with bright emerald orbs, looked out through his low hanging branches. Brushing them aside with his maw, the ivory masked and seemingly cloaked ebony male looked out to the night time forest. Someone else was out there, and he already had a feeling he knew who.

Fiereza grinned and slipped closer to the ivory and ebony male, she felt the darkness so near to him. He had such potential for one not yet full grown and the way the shadows bent and seemed to whisper to him was most intriguing. Perhaps they would tell him that she was near, the way they told her to stay within their shelter.
She slid closer still before fully opening her eyes the red orbs gleaming suddenly in the darkness. "Hello Adolfo..." She murmured and sat down not far from him. Finally she would meet this one this 'hope' of hers.

Even in the darkest of the woods, the male had had a sense of where the other was coming from. His eyes following a shadow to normal, day, wolf's eyes. His eyes had adapted through the time in the shadows and he saw things in the dark that others only could imagine in the day, but it was the reverse for him with the day. Looking at the gleam of red crimson eyes, Adolfo moved out of his willow completely.
The form of the femme, plus her scent, inched closer towards him. With a slight narrow of his eyes, he was skeptical of how the other knew his name, but he wouldn't say anything. Most creatures seemed to have their own myths about the shadow ninja teen. With a raised head, proud like that his father walked with, Adolfo spoke back.
"Evening, is there something that I can help you with?"

"Why yes...yes there is...I'm so glad you offered. I happen to need assistance, and I do believe your the only one who can offer this particular brand of...'help'. You don't shy from the shadows as others may." She slunk a bit closer and tilted her head.
"You'll have to forgive my...intrusion, but I had to watch you, to be sure you were...capable? trustworthy?" She smiled and inhaled his scent What a divine pelt...imagine laying on that... she shook the thought away and frowned. She needed his help and she wouldn't do anything to endanger that, to endanger him. If she really wanted to avoid becoming some horror in the forest, some creature who killed and killed until she in turn was hunted down, she needed to control herself. She looked at him intently for a long moment.
"You were learning to heal the flesh...I require...a different kind of healing."

One ear went back at the sudden burst of words from the other. She was right down to the point, something that he liked about some others, but not everyone. Sometime you had to help them along, but regardless. Listening with a face of infinite patience Adolfo heard out this femme's words.
Well, duh, of course he didn't shy away from the shadows. He welcomed them and all the help they seemed to give, but again the male's maw didn't open. However, once she mentioned intrusions, Adolfo couldn't help but smile. "Don't worry about it, you seemed to have actually came looking for me, unlike some of the others I've met," a slight frown at all those that had intruded during his daytime naps.
Although, the last words she spoke, sudden the male thought of his mother, "A help to the mind?" he questioned, but then quickly added, "I'm working on something to help my mother, no offense intended, but she has a sickness in her mind."

"Yes well...I have a...malady of my own. Hmmm forgive my rudeness, they call me Fiereza." She nodded softly at his words and stood pacing before him. "Your mother suffers from too many emotions no? Sadness? Deep overwhelming sadness?" She knew she should feel bad for the female, or bad for her son who wanted to help her but she couldn't that was the problem.
Fiereza sat back infront of Adolfo and gazed into his eyes showing how empty her own were. "I need your help for the opposite reason, I want to feel...I want you to teach me emotions. I need to learn them, not how to fake them...that I know all too well. I want you to show me fear, sadness, joy. You know these things even though the shadows speak to you, the shadows...I can't feel these emotions. I've seen you though...anger, and joy, and...love? Or at least puppy love." She looked down.
"I'm a murderer...I confess it, wolves, squirrels, foxes, lynx...I'll kill whatever has the pelt that I take a fancy to. I like to skin them...and sometimes I'll eat whats left...I know I should feel...bad? I should feel guilt? Or disgust? I want to be better, but sometimes...Your pelt...it's so balanced, white and black." She gulped and shook herself off. "I feel these spikes of...pleasure, joy when I gather a new pelt for myself." Tracking them down, finding a way to kill them, and then...the skinning If he turned her down now, what would she do? She could not kill one who was as much of the shadows as she.

Adolfo mentally kicked himself, though he then thought about the facts, no one had really came up to him, that he didn't know, and state his name. So instead of thinking any further upon it, the adolt male cocked his head, how did this she-wolf know about his mother's state of mind?
He listened, with a since of some sort of un-inherited nobility about him in the dark. "You want me to teach you emotions," this sounded complicated, but he couldn't send off the femme, Alas would frown at his name for years to come. Besides, wasn't he her hope in this pack? Although Adolfo couldn't help but narrow his eyes at the mention of love, what business did this Fiereza have with knowing all of his moments, personal as they were especially with Vianna, or so he assumed this other shadow lurker was speaking about.
Listening again, to the confession of the other, a frown came through on the majestic dark maw. At first he was going to say that her skinning wasn't murder, just an out of hand hobby...really out of hand, that was until she mentioned his pelt. Forcing himself to not look down Adolfo contemplated everything behind the dark mask of shadowy nothing on his face.
"I'll help you," he stated after a moment of silence. "However there will be conditions, absolutely no killing another wolf, prey animal is fine, but not another one of our kind. Secondly, you must socialize. Getting to know another normally stops the urges of killing, it has to do with a connection thing." This Adolfo wasn't sure why, but he had see it done. "Thirdly, we want to find something that produces the same feeling that skinning does for you, but it can't be skinning. Once we find a trigger, we will be able to expand the feeling hopefully to activate on their own without a trigger thought."

"Yes emotions, how to really feel them..." She smirked as he narrowed his eyes, she considered letting on a little more that she knew and had observed him for a while. She had almost felt as if she were watching her prey, but the attachment had formed slowly and soon she saw past his pelt and realized he was her hope. She had to admit she had been irked to see him share his dinner with that young wolf who had slipped away from her family, she almost hoped the female had eaten all the crab and would be poisoned by the parts that tasted so delicious and yet were such a danger. Ah how she loved the fruits of the sea for they were tasty and held terrible secrets, they killed and left no blood upon the pelt, perfect.
She snapped back to the present moment and shook away her wicked thoughts, she should not have been wishing such harm on one she did not even know. I'll help you he said and a slow smile curved her muzzle. She listened to his conditions and nodded softly, this would be difficult. "I will socialize with you..." She murmured softly and smirked. "You are most intriguing, the shadows whisper strongly around you...I would like to know you..."
Know him indeed, she eyed his sleek muscles with appreciation for the form he would grow into. He was the perfect one to teach her, for her to finally follow instead of walking alone. She nodded softly at his theory of the trigger and hoped he could indeed find such a thing. "Verywell, I shall make myself a den near yours...you would not object? I promise you won't even notice me around..." She smiled softly You haven't noticed me till now...

It would be a difficult road, but Adolfo knew he had the time, especially during the day, to work with Fie. He had helped another, and was hoping to help her blend into the surroundings like she had wanted, maybe he could check on Flame and work with Fie at the same time.
"I guess I can't ask you to do something that I do not, so socializing with me will be fine." Not like he could have known other wise. When the dark wolfess mentioned the shadows he nodded, "They're helpful," he agreed.
"That will be fine, I can't object to another setting up their home near my claimed plot." It was true, and besides the warmth of his mother's heart wouldn't allow her to say anything rude and obnoxious. Well at least while he was in a good mood.

Fie smiled softly and for a moment she nodded to him her ears flicking back. "Yes...this gives me...pleasure...I like it..." Indeed it did please her, for her plan was going as smoothly as could be. She had companionship and one who would teach her how to feel and enjoy it. Perhaps he would teach of other feelings as well, she let her red hued gaze skim down his form and smiled softly.
"Allow me to ask you, do you enjoy your feelings? I have seen others in pain and in sadness...it almost made me not want to do this thing, this learning of such emotions. I see others though in love in laughter, emotions that bring them pleasure. I feel it sometimes, when I curl up in the warmth of my den, in the pit of my stomach...yet I am scorned for what makes me happy. Why can't I be happy in my own way?" She looked at Adolfo seriously still not able to understand the issue in her killing sprees other then how they made everyone else upset.

"I'm glad that it gives you pleasure or in other terms makes you happy. Already a step forward Fie," he congratulated and gave a slight smile. However he did take note of the skimming her eyes did, he justified somehow in his own mind though as an innocent thing, maybe admiring the pelt still on the living prey.
At the question of his feeling Adolfo thought for a good long second. "I do, though I've seen what they can do out of control. As in my mother's case, but they tell me what seems to be right or wrong. My emotions help me understand others in ways that most won't allow themselves."
Adolfo listened to her added on words, "Others don't understand, or take time to understand what it is truly behind your...hobby. I see that as the only way you know how to feel a certain way.
Others just look at moral and judge anything not 'normal' as weird. Just like most would deem me weird for the shadows and my nightly life habit. You can make the judgment on emotions once you have started to experience them."

"They become afraid of the darkness, something so beautiful to you, to me...so pure...yet so feared. I wish I understood fear, perhaps then I could learn to abolish it from the minds of all, it is a most troublesome thing." She slipped closer to him her nose barely brushing his fur.
"You smell delicious..." She muttered before pulling back and closing her crimson eyes for a moment. "...alive, a...companion...warm and real." She lightly sighed and turned away. "This will be most difficult..."
She opened her eyes and peered at him again. "I must be truthful I do not like this swirling female who prances around with you in the night...It is wrong to want to harm her...wrong because you....enjoy her. Still, the desire is there to see her coat spread out on the sand. It is...not a claim, simply a wish." She shrugged softly, no male owned her and she owned no male, but this strange welling inside her was unfamiliar. She killed and skinned in an almost random fashion, taking what she needed for a collection or project, not out of malice or dislike.

"That is because others have no idea what the shadows actually conceal. There are always the thought that something dark and evil lurks in the depths that we enjoy, there are stories of thing from the darkness that takes innocents, those that spread such...Fear, as you called it, just don't want to make it obvious that things of worst 'evils' lurk in their precious daylight." Adolfo muttered his thoughts outloud, remembering his puphood where Rome had spoken such things in the bear territory. Psh, and to think Adolfo could here the sound of a slight mumble when he was even a pup.
"Fear is something that some love to cling to. If there is something that another wants to blame or have a utterly dislike to, sometimes it will manifest in fear."
Although he spoke these words, Adolfo watched Fie closely with his emerald eyes, she seemed honest enough. Though if he would trust her right away, that would be something all together different, he didn't fear her for the shadows would alarm him of life threats. But as she spoke his ears perked up.
"Yes, a real life companion," he paused and held back a smile, "If things were all meant to be easy, then there would be nothing to strive for. I promise to try and help with making it somewhat easier." as much as I can, he added in thought.
Though at the mention of Vianna, Adolfo's eyes steadied, he knew Fie was speaking her truthful thoughts, so he just nodded. "Well, if it constitutes for anything, her father doesn't like me at all."

Fie relaxed with his words, his explanations made sense to her. "The light conceals as many secrets as the dark, if not more..." She murmured. She watched Adolfo a small smile crossing her muzzle as she saw the way his bright eyes followed her. She would work to earn trust from him, to ensure that he did not feel the need to watch her with such cautious eyes.
She chuckled at the mention of Vianna's father disliking him "Who can blame the rationale of a father? He wants only to ensure the best for his child...and perhaps in his eyes no one would be good enough." She gazed at him her eyes shining with a faint amusement. He was certainly good enough for her, perhaps she didn't mind the way his eyes watched her, if only she could change the reason.
