Nanu:
Today, was a day that Nanu was going to see one of her darling children. If it wouldn't have been for Loth not agreeing with his daughter's descision on taking a female for a mate, he would've come too. But this time. She thought- why not take her grandchild for the ride. In so she trotted along her marry way til she got to her usually clearing in seeing the fox like den. Smiling softly..
Subira:
Subira was standing, waiting for today to come. She knew her mother was coming for the wind carried her scent around and she waited what her mother would be doing around these parts. She looked back in to her den.. her tail waving idly as she took a few surrounding steps in a small hole she had made early and laid there. Ears tweaking from one side to the next and once her mother was in view. She nodded. 'Come closer' sorta way.

Nafsi:
Nafsi was laying close to his mother as usual. He stared off into the distance like his mother had done many times before. When his mothers ears began to twitch he stood up in reaction to his mother, he stared out to see a figure. His ears perking up once he caught scent of what he saw and what had caught his mothers attention, his tail began to wag and a slight smile appeared across his face. His grandma had come for a visit, he loved when she would come.

Nanu:
Nanu's face brightened like the sun as she neared and quickly started out to her daughter and her gandchild. The FIRST! Of whom she knew about. Coming up to him and nabbing his ear slightly and making soft noises against him. Only to look at Subira.. with a soft smile. Almost asking her.
Subira:
She grunted softly. Rolling her eyes and softly nosing her mother's face when she came near only to watch her son idly. How he reacted. How he was with her.. "Where will you be going?" She asked with a very direct tone. "No doubt to see Imamu." Eyes slitted.. but her mother's reaction- she could tall far and wide what was happening.. and if she saw Nafsi.. what- how- would she react. She only briefly met him the last time they went to visit. But to be around him.. "I'll be coming then."
Nanu:
Nanu's face brightened and gave a soft few grooming licks her to grandpup.. Nuzzling him and giving him the special treatment.

Nafsi:
Nafsi rubbed against his grandmothers leg. He love his mother dearly but for some reason he left more love from his grandmother. He enjoyed it. At the meation of Imamu his ears perked up, he only had an unclear memories of her. All he really knew what that she was his auntie and mommys sister. At the mention of his mother coming, he couldn't help but let out a smile as he walked to his mother and gently nuzzled against her side, secretly he was glad she was coming because now he didnt have to say no, if Subira decieded she didnt want go he probably wouldnt have gone either; not without his mom.He always want to be with his mother, even though he enjoyed the attention from his grandma.

Nanu:
Nanu's face was quite delighted as she turned around and wagged her tail waiting up for them.
Subira:
Subira's eyes followed her son and softly licked his face as he came close. Slowly getting up out of her hole and looking about. Her knight would watch the fork. She should really call out to him before they left.. in so. She bellowed a long howl.. basically telling her knight that she was off to do something.. He knew. Softly looking up.. She had this warm feeling but she couldn't bring herself to tell him.. but he somehow knew. Looking down to her son. "Don't go away from my side.. or your grand mother's side." Slitting her eyes as she remembered what happened long ago. Only ONCE did they go see Imamu but that was VERY VERY quick pass by but now it would be a 'visit'. "Don't go anywhere without us.. understand. Even with your auntie. Don't go unless grandma or I am there." She voiced to him in a whisper as she made some ground and waited for him to follow along. The way there was just a few pastures away.. probably a few. A walk. She knew though that her son could handle it.
Imamu:
Imamu was out of the den today. Protrolling like she did often. Being in the rank she took up- she was looked up upon even though she wasn't born in to the pack. But her mate- was highly looked upon so it was only natural. Kya- had a litter.. and to Imamu's surprise.. it was an old friend of hers.. so she felt even more attached to the puppies. Believing they were also hers.. but still had some sad moments where she had 'lost' or 'ached' for them. Like.. Something was missing.
Shamira:
Had the day went by any slower- the pup would have drowned in it. She saw the blankness of the day and like Kya- she was always happy. But sometimes.. the days were too long. When mother Imamu left. She HAD to follow. Bouncing behind her.. then trying to walk exactly like her- the difference? She had shorter legs and it was hard to keep up. Looking as though she knew what she was doing- of course. She really didn't but as long as she looked like mother Imamu. It was fine.

Nafsi:
Nafsi looked up at his mother and nodded. He didn’t know why she was being so overprotective. Normally she seemed like she didn’t care. He gently rubbed his head against his mothers’ leg. Nafsi ran to catch up with his grandmother his tail wagging. He was excited to see his auntie. He didn't know much about her, his mother never spoke about her much. In fact his mother hardly spoke to him about anything other than to tell him don’t do this or don’t do that, but he didn't care, he still loved his mother; that’s all that mattered to him.

Nanu:
When he tried to catch up- she picked up her pace and leaned down only to nudge his side as if playing tag and trotted along. Slightly looking back at her daughter. Something was up with her and though she felt her dark daughter was hiding something. She couldn't really point it out especially with a puppy around. Regardless. She tried to seem as happy as she could- like she always had. Pouncing about and even jumping over the puppy ever other time. Poking at his butt and pushing him along. A sorta laughing could be heard from her though- even if she couldn't speak.
She could make some sort of noises that could resemble some sorta of speech. Preening with joy as spending time with her grandchild meant probably the world to her.
Subira:
As they moved ahead of her. Her eyes watched the hill they went over. Subira took everything in stride and moved along with ease.. Taking in what could happen as she saw them play ahead of her. Happiness. Something her knight had shown her... but since having to use the spirits it felt like another burden- another cross falling on her back and had to carry with her.. but she didn't want this little one.
To. FEEL. Such unwant. The only thing she could do was focus soully on bringing him up on how the spirits wanted yet not let him be engulfed by them like she did. Taking her life away. Closing her eyes very solemnly.. to take in the very short time of happiness... she missed it but it felt like as soon as she asked for help- it warped her and sucked all the life from her. As if she couldn't experience the emotion. Blank. Then opened her black orbs to see her 'son'. Now after being with him- inseparable. She felt.. the need to protect him from the possible dangers but he was expandable. Slowly- that thought of being expandable was less appealing to her. As the neared the way toward the pride. Meaning, they didn't live THAT far away but it was some walk. She felt the need to 'prepare'.. for anything.
Besides. Nafsi could pass a son of hers anyway. Slitting her eyes as he watched them. Something deep inside... was warming something very cold. Nearing ... and nearing the walk seemed like it would go on forever but the two ahead of her SEEMED to be having a lot of fun anyways.
Imamu:
Trotting about.. petrolling the 'inside'. The plains filled with wilddogs now. The pack was really flourishing. Helping others with their springs. It seemed like a place of much tranquility. After what had happened- even if she couldn't remember. This is what her soul needed. A place. After taking a few scent trails to other dens and watching everyone- which she basically knew by scent. Everyone checked out- except the 'visitors' and even then. They seemed to have not hit her sensor of being ill willed to the pack itself.
Soaked in the site of her back- she noticed that little paws were rushing to try and keep up and when she finally looked down and in between her legs. She saw her little puppy hopping on each paw print she made. Being excited and happy about it- reverting her head up and turned around only to greet the small puppy with a smile. "Mmm. Up mighty early now aren't we little one." A soft motherly kindness seeping out from her pores.
Shamira:
Hopping on each paw til her mother addressed her. Looking up with soft eyes. "Mum?" She chirped and ran full run towards her and couldn't stop in time before tumbling and rolling right between her legs and sprawling out in front of her. "Arraa..." Swirling and hares jumping about around her head .
Imamu:
Chuckling before leaning down and picking her up by the nit of her neck fur. Setting her down on all fours before nuzzling her. "So.. is my little going to come with me to watch the boarders?"
Shamira:
She yipped happily and wagged her tail. "YUP! Just like mum!" Jumping about happily as she led her mother towards the trail to get to the boarder. The hills gave enough range to look down upon whom came. Padding her tail knowing full well that if she isn't with her mum or ma. That she couldn't even be remotely near the boarders. Happily yipping and chirping all the way.. as her mother wasn't as far behind as Subira was from her kid.
Both mothers- of children that weren't their own. That took some tole..

Nafsi:
When the young pup was around his grandmother he felt care-free. As he walked on two paws when his grandmother pushed his butt he could help but let out a little laughter like sound. He could talk but it was hard, he never liked to; it was to much strain on his voice. He felt a closeness with his grandmother, more so then with his mother. His little legs ran to her whenever he fell to much behind his grandmother.
He noticed his mother was falling a little behind and couldn't help but run off to her. He felt attached to his mother, no bond could break that. He walked along side his mother minicking her stride for a few seconds and nuzzled against her leg with his head quickly before running and catching back up with his grandmother, attemping to jump over her as she had jumped over him but his attempt ended with him jumping into her butt with an OOMPH.

Nanu:
She too was like her grandson. She had been unable to talk since she was born and her sisters were the talkers. Her family had to get used to having one that could not talk. It was.. unheard of. But it seemed it influenced her lines after. If that was a curse? She didn't know but as she played and nipped her grandson when he got close, though she knew. She knew something was different.
Playing and it seemed so long that she had played with her cubs when they were young. Though she never that Nafsi would be the same. if he was like his mother truely.. he wouldn't act so active. He would be absorbed in blank space.. be detached and be haunted by the spirits. But it seemed like she was... ok now. But still detached. As she played- her eyes sometimes gazed back at her daughter and even more when her grandson turned around towards her.
That soft smile of hers..
He was so lively.. but so dark. He was something to marvel at.
Subira:
When her son came up to her.. time was passing and they were already at the boarders you can say. Coming up to where she met Imamu's mate way before she had even thought of her. Even saw her. She looked down as he nuzzled her leg and she gave a nod of accepting his presence before her nose caught the whiff of the pride's scent and particularly. One that she knew way too well. She stopped just short of the hill. Looking up..
Nanu:
When her daughter stopped. Of course she too stopped.. looking about then took her nose to lead her upwards.. nothing was there..
Until a black skull came in to view and a wide smile went across her face. A loving one.
Imamu:
She hadn't known of her family coming today. No. She wouldn't have expected it even if one would have told her of it. As she got to the hill- she observed what was below. Well below and to her side at her daughter before looking up to see a familiar pair and. An unexpected blob of black under the white skulled one. "Mother? Subira?" She called..
Then it wasn't long before she ran her way down- marveling at all two of them and nuzzling her mother's face. She hadn't seen her in so long that the smell the touch was amazingly touching to her. As she cuued and awed over her mother she looked to Subira. The usual face except more ..serious.
Shamira:
It was hard to keep up with mother- running down that hill! She thought today would be a normal day but it wasn't. Oh noes it wasn't. They had visitors and they knew mum. When she was semi left behind. She chirped a bit in a barking sorta sound but hadn't developed the voice yet.
Imamu:
When she had heard her daughter- immediately she turned to find her only to see she was just behind her leg. Softfull sigh before picking her up by her extra back fur to plop her in front of them.
"My daughter.. Shamira."
Nanu:
Another grandchild!? She couldn't believe it as she dipped down and looked at the girl. Careful not to scare her- she still looked so little! 'Awww' Nanu's face screamed but of course she couldn't make the sound.. Just smiled and looked up- grooming at Imamu's face happily.
Imamu:
"Is that- Sis?"
Subira:
"Yes. It's my son." She stated very firmly..careful not to let Imamui get close and when she did she had to hold her breath..
Imamu:
"I remember." A soft smile..a sorrowful one. "He was very tiny when I last saw him.. he has grow up. Well just a tad." Lowering herself.. "Nafsi.." Her voice soft.. but somehow. Saddened. Deeply.. her heart was breaking and it hurt slightly but she didn't know why..
Shamira:
Hiding behind Mum's leg as she looked up at the two other larger wilddogs- then as she looked straight. She saw another smaller wilddog. When she was plopped in front of the group. Her face reddened and she quickly scurried behind her mother again.. Scared almost but mostly embarrassed that her mother just showed her off.. but. Mum called that other wilddog mother? Did that mean they were related? Somehow. To these..other wilddogs.. that looked nothing like her but it looked a lot like mum. Then she looked to the boy.. he was small like her, but just a little taller and more .. just more.
Blinking at him and if he caught her gaze she would look away for sure!

Nafsi:
Nafsi stopped where his mother stopped. He sniffed the air and he smelt something.... familiar....He wrinkled his nose. He wasn't sur from where though. He ran up to his grandmother just in time to see the black skull come into view. But thats not the only thing he saw, there was a small gray mass in the older wild dogs mouth. As they came into view he saw that in was a pup, jut a bit smaller then him. He sat stoic as they approached. He noticed that the older wild dog looked like his mom, but different.... well in a way. Nafsi bowed his at at the adult wild dog, greeting her. He noticed the smaller one, she was... well.... eye grabbing at leat in his opinion. He nodded at her, trying to keep his stoic expression. However, being in the presence of his mother and this other wild dog, he felt.... he felt an unsettling feeling in his stomach. But she shook it off and looked at the young pup.

Shamira:
Though she was looking at the black blob- she was faced with her grandmother's face... and slowly she backed her head almost scared and weird faced to get away.. but she didn't. Standing there with big ol' eyes.. Then she barked but it sounded like a chirp of a bird. Blinking repeatedly and her tail tucked under her body. Ears back.
Subira:
She observed the girl's reaction to mother and it was rather amusing.. as she stood above her son with a paw in front of him, towering him with protection. "You daughter we're guessing." She said blankly. "Mother is very happy to see another grandchild being born.
Imamu:
"My mate had ten." She smiled.. though intrigued by the lil black blob she turned around and went back to her child and mother. Smiling softly at them.. "You approve?"
Nanu:
Though she was happy- she looked up. As if saying 'Why is she scared'? Loth wouldn't like her already with that attitude. She knew her mate too well now.. And this being 'scared' of family wouldn't go well with her. Nope. She didn't think so and she turned to Nafsi. Pawing the ground as if beckoning him to come to her.
Shamira:
Her ears flopped and then wiggled around as she saw her 'grandmother' gesture to her all sorts of ways to her taller counterparts.. and she felt. Well.. Out of place. Her tail between her legs as she quickly went and rolled, then threw herself behind her mother. Giving a soft whimper. "Who are they mum."
Imamu:
"Your grandmother.. and your aunt. Oh.. and your little cousin. Well. Big cousin." She smiled down and then when she looked at her mother.. that look of 'why' ... she couldn't quite answer. She looked down. "No need to be scared. Go on. They are family." Trying to nudge her but she wouldn't budge. She flicked her tail almost annoyed. "Go on and say hello to your family." Directing her now.. but when her sister brought up grandmother loving to see another born. She blankly looked at her.
"No. My mate. She had a litter.. and thus are mine." In some odd way shape or form. That got her some stares.
Nanu:
Blankly looked at her..the words following the scolding kept Nanu.. almost out of speech. She didn't even know what to gesture.. so. She trotted her way back to Subira and pushed her shoulder a bit. Directing her away or almost in greet.
Imamu:
"Mother- No. That.. its complicated."
Subira:
Eyes soft.. she knew what was happening since the beginning but didn't EXACTLY know it was for her sister. The wilddog she met.. she had no idea. She THOUGHT it would be Imamu's mate but that possibly was like 1 out of 10. Her tail padding just slightly. "Mother. Though complicated.. love is love.. isn't that what we must respect." Looking to her mother with those black soulless eyes as she always did.
Nanu:
She guessed so. The spirits.. she looked away for a minute, her ears up and hearing and smelling the closeness of the pack.
Imamu:
"Why don't you... come in to the pack. See what I mean." With that she turned and pushed her daughter forward before the lump flopped and rolled backward for about a few feet. Sprawling out on the floor in front of Nafsi's forepaws. Blinking up with those dark gray eyes. They were not blind.. not in the least bit. He looked... Scary.

Nafsi:
Nafsi continued to look at the small female pup. He eyed her, she was scared. That made a smirk grow across his face. When he heard her pathetic bark, it was more of a yelp, it made him chuckle a little. But he was confused. He thought only mommy’s could have babies. But the while wild dog said her mate had pups. Does that mean boy can have puppies too? He looked up at his mother, seeing her hover over him was comforting.
He was used to his mothers over protectivness. It was when she was distant that he felt weird. He wanted to talk to the spirits like his mother one day. He wanted to be just like her, well only manlier.
As he saw the white wild dog go off into the pride land taking the pup with her he looked at his mother. He wanted to go with them but he didn’t know if his mother would let him. She didn’t like him going off alone... But he wanted to follow the female pup... there was something about her that made him feel at ease. Like he didn’t have anything to be worried about he wanted to explore the feeling more... At least that’s what he was telling himself...

Nanu:
Nanu took a few steps but noticed she didn't hear the others behind her. Not even the puppy's paws.. She turned around and noticed the face Subira had. Shaking her head and lowering it to where the puppy was. Giving him the signal to go on forward and follow her. But her eyes caught Subira's.
Subira:
"I don't want her alone with my pup." She stated. Very strictly..
Nanu:
Nanu gave the soft nod and gave another signal to the puppy to go on. Without noticing she turned and continued.
Imamu:
Imamu was more than happy to show them around.. it was a day that the pride was calm and some were busy with rogue healings while others were scouting. It was quiet and welcoming.. Wilddogs and hyenas alike learning to work together. She didn't see her mate until she crept in to the den. Sleeping. Nudging Shamira along.
Shamira:
She turned.. to look and see if the other puppy was going.. then looked up at her mother. "Are they coming in? "
Imamu:
"No dear- their here to visit.. I wanna show them around."
Shamira:
"Can I come?"
Imamu:
".... " She sighed softly. "Why don't you play with the puppy your aunt brought.. he is cute.. They are family."
Shamira:
"Ok.."
Imamu:
"If you wanna be a healer like your ma~ then you have to accept all beings.. even the scary looking ones."
Shamira:
She nodded softly. Then bounced forward and watched as the three of the new wilddogs came and surrounded the den.
Imamu:
"Here.. I'll show you the springs." Walking down one both..
Subira:
Subira looked down at her cub. Giving him an accepting nod if he wanted to go play... for the pack lands were safe. Except for her twin.
Nanu:
Nanu was found outside and not even close to the den for now.. she followed Imamu to hear of these springs. She heard of them before. With healing components that were not matched.
Eyes went wide as he was given his mother's nod- but with her mother.. it was different. She didn't care because she usually let them all play around.. Her tail coiled under her as he came along. "Hi." She gulped.

Nafsi:
Nafsi was always a bit uneased when his mother lt him go on his own. But he would be with his grandmother and others? With the nudge form his mother he slowly began to follow his grandmother. "Na...Na....." his voices rasped and was very brittle and weak. He knew her name was Nanu but he couldn't strain his voice and it hurt when he would try to say the 'nu' part of Nanu. He called for her to wait up as he walked to her.
He saw his Nana walk away with the strange white dog who to his knowledge was his auntie if he was kepping things up right. He didnt even notice the little pale pup go to him until he hurt her voice. So clear and and sweet. How he envyed her already. Hi. She spoke one simple word with such ease and clarity. It was agrivating. He was stoic as usual as he tried to make himself look more fierce as he sat up straight and puff out his little chest. He simply looked at her and nodded.

Shamira:
When he puffed out his chest she immediately tried to do the same but quickly took a step back and tried it again. FAIL. Lowering her head as she gave a soft bark then took another step back. "...Whats your name." She said ever so sweetly.. though cautious of him.. as she never seen another as dark as him before. Ears went back. "Hey-" She pouted.
Subira:
Coming up to her son's backside she lightly nuzzled his back. "He doesn't talk much." She stated to the child. Almost giving her a warning to get back.. but it wasn't like she was angry with the girl no. She was wary on edge.. and slowly poked/rubbing her son's head with her snout. In a way to show him.. that be on 'guard'. Then slowly in toe did she follow her mother. Wary of leaving them two alone. Not much of her son being with ten puppies her sister's mate had. No.. They were safe. Eyes slicking and going in to her 'listen and stalk' mode.
Imamu:
"So.. the springs here are said to have healing powers. First.. I somehow didn't believe it but some of my hunting scars have disappeared from going in the baths often. Your welcome to stay and make your own judgement on it." She was calmer and softer looking.. but still with that powerful face. As her position says- she is too seek out 'ill willed' against the pack and chase them out but little did she know that one her family would be betraying her and the closest one to her..
Nanu:
Softly she nodded.. as she started to walk up to one of the springs. She smelt the air then slowly went down in to the trench where the water softly flowed in to each other. Eyes went slitted as she took a step closer in...
Imamu:
"Heh. Funny mother- thats in fact the first spring I came to when I left Subira's pla-"
Subira:
"!!!" Subira's ears shot up as she quickly as she stepped up and she knew something like this could trigger something. So- she stepped in and slowly stopped her mother from stepping in by softly nudging her away as she took the first steps in to the spring. "Mother. Many have come here.. I don't want you fainting from the eye." The eye meaning the foresight that she had. Eyes forward.. and the jolt of emotion and almost protective fear that she had caused her mother to step back.
Nanu:
Her ears went forward as she stood up in front of her daughter.. then looked at the water for just a minute then back in to Subira's eyes. Something was up- but Nanu brushed it off and slowly turned as to follow Imamu. Giving a slight nod so they could move on.
Shamira:
When the dark mum said something to her- it made from her puffed up chest fall backward as she tried to look up at her. Rolling on her back then quickly trying to recover as she lowered herself until she left.. Thats when she got the guts to slowly taking a few steps closer. Ears back.. Her tail wagging softly as it was unknowing if they would jump in to 'play' mode with her siblings or .. stay at a stand off.. Which was it dark one? She thought to herself.. Watching his every move now.. With big old bright blue eyes..
