Zidane was busily bringing back his recent catch, for both his mistress and his younger brother. He had managed to find a younger fawn to take down, it would be a wonder feast for them all tonight.

Dropping down his kill he howled his arrival, and sniffed the air to see where his sibling was. Something was off. The air gave off a tinge of blood and rot that he didn't recognize. His eyes narrowed, the smell caused an odd sort of stirring somewhere. He sniffed around for it more.

She was feeling so very odd. Kinda sick maybe. Hearing her brother's howl, she got up and went out to greet him, then his scent hit her. She drooled as chemicals stirred her insides, she wanted something, and the only person to give it to her was her brother. She dashed out, moving so much faster than usual and looked around, "Big brother!" Her body moved without thinking, bounding up to him and presenting herself in a most embarrassing manner. "Brooooother, I want puppies."

He'd been wondering what the smell was, and now it was so intense he wanted to be sick. It was coming from Cranial, his brother....but only females...His ears dropped as he came to the realization his brother was actually his sister. A few moments later her declairation of wanting puppies percolated through his rather confused brain, "You want....WHAT?!" He saw the look in her eyes, and she wanted to breed...with him.

Revulsion and sickness hit his stomach hard. Normally wolves didn't care, but Cranial was the most unsightly and ugly female he'd ever laid eyes on. As a male Cranial would have had a chance, because it was strength that mattered more than appearance. But as a female..."Cranial we're siblings. That's inbreeding and very very bad. Plus, are you sure you want to pass on your genetics? You're not the prettiest female....by far." He wasn't going to sugar coat it, Cranial was still Cranial, and should act like a man about being told no, in a clear manner.

Cranial was confused. Why didn't brother want to breed with her? She was female, that's what males did with females, when she was a boy they'd joked about breeding till their tails fell off with females. Why was it he couldn't do that with her now that she was a girl? Then he explained. Zidane was always one to go right to the point. Not sparing feelings, and normally she could handle it...but something clicked and pissed her off.

"I'm not pretty enough?" She howled at him, snapping her jaws and snarling at him, "You want to breed with other females that are pretty, not an ugly sot like me. You vile two-faced sick in the head jerk!" She didn't get that they were siblings so it might not be a good idea, she wanted to breed, to mate, she craved it. Her jaws snapped again as she lashed out at him, then she ran off, hiding away from him to lick her mental wounds. She'd show him, he'd fall in love with her and they'd make babies. Lots of them.

Zidane caught one of her snapping fits right across the chest. He had a scratch, but it wasn't bleeding too much. He stared after his once comrade in arms, turned creepy sister, and whimpered. He tried desperately to remember how long being in heat lasted for females, as he scrambled into the safety of the small house. He wanted to be as far away from Cranial as possible. With all his knowledge and skill he would find the perfect place to hide for...however long it took the female Cranial to get this imbalance out of her system, and go back to being the less scary more drooly Cranial.

He sighed, "Just what she needed, puberty." With that he flopped down in his mistresses bed for a quick nap before his great escape. He was just lucky that the mistress didn't allow Cranial on the bed because 'Drool monsters sleep on the rug.'
