Sticks and Stones (- - mars) [M]

Arrow

Arrow sniffed along the base of the hill, her tail lifted slightly. She hoped that she was going the right way; besides, she wanted a nice, safe place that was good enough for her to start a pack. Arrow curled her tail and turned her head. She didn't see her travelmate behind her. "Where'd you go?" she called.

(her picture isnt showing up? D:)

(his name's pronounced like 'Siren' but with an F instead of S :3)

Firyn ran along happily, tongue rolling out of his mouth as he tripped over countless rocks and large roots. he paused, hearing Arrow call. "here!" he woofed, jogging towards her voice. he erupted from a bush and soon found himself at her side. "find anything?" Firyn asked, yawning.

[Blackberry]

Arrow sniffed his cheek, then turned back to the hill. "I think that we should cross the hill," she said. "I have no idea what's on the other side though." She started to trot up the hill.

(omg it sucks ;_; )

[- - mars]

(lol its fine xD)

Firyn glanced at the hill, and then at her as she started to climb it. he trotted to her side and stopped, a sly grin on his face. "race ya up?" he barked, cocking his head.

[Blackberry]

Arrow gave a sly smirk in return. "Okay... ready, set, go!" As she said ready, she darted up the hill, and then called "go!" over her shoulder.

[- - mars]

"you cheater!" Firyn yowled, dashing after her. paws tearing up the grass below him, he slowly fought his way closer to her.
(and you said yours sucked xD)

[Blackberry]

(it was good? )

"Cheaters always win~" Arrow sang as she pranced along, her tail waving in the air. She could see the tree at the top of the hill, and decided that would be the finish line. But suddenly, her paw met a rock, and she tripped and fell flat on her face.

(Did I mention Arrow was clumsy?)

[- - mars]

(lies xD)

Firyn was about to reach out to snap at her tail whens he suddenly came crashing down. he let out a loud yip of laughter, pausing and looking down at her. "do they, now?" he teased, circling her. he reached down and tugged gently on her tail and then darted forwards towards the tree.

[Blackberry]

Arrow curled her lip as her friend tugged her tail. She got to her feet and walked after him, her ears flattened. "Okay, you win," she said. "Good job. Now, lets go hunt," she added as her stomach rumbled.

[- - mars]

"victory!" Firyn yowled, leaping triumphantly into the air. he landed and nodded his head, "yeah, i'm hungry too. beating a loser does that to you, you know." he teased, bumping her shoulder with his. "where to?"

[Blackberry]

Arrow swatted at his muzzle, getting a little annoyed. She then lifted her snout, and tasted the air. Then, with her tail, she pointed at a burrow a few inches down the hill. "In there. I think there's a rabbit."

[- - mars]

Firyn rolled his eyes and watched her. "you get that, i'll look over there." he whispered, jogging off towards the other side of the hill. entering some brush, he sniffed around and saw a ground squirrel running around in the grass. wagging his tail, he quickly pounced and killed the smaller creature with a skilled snap of its neck. he flung it in the air and caught it, shaking it around once it was back in his jaws.

[Blackberry]

Arrow nodded and crept to the other side, her nose twitching. She let out an annoyed soft growl as she watched Firyn play with a ground squirrel. She sighed, and waited outside the rabbit burrow, completely still, not a muscel moving.

[- - mars]

Firyn threw his catch in the air a few more times before tossing it on the ground. he sniffed at it, and then poked at it with his paw. bored now that it was most certainly dead, he snatched it up in his mouth and trotted towards the tree quietly.

[Blackberry]

The rabbit poked its head out of the hole, and Arrow darted forward and grabbed its head. She shook it furiously before dropping it, knowing it was dead. She grabbed it in her teeth and trotted off, looking for Firyn.

[- - mars]

Firyn looked up from where he was batting his ground squirrel between his paws. "nice catch Arrow." he woofed, wagging his tail. he dipped his head and took a bite of his squirrel, licking his lips.

[Blackberry]

Arrow nodded to him. "Yours too." then she started to eat her rabbit.

[- - mars]

Firyn smiled and chomped on his, watching her. "where we gunna start the pack?" he asked, licking his jaws.

[Blackberry]

Arrow froze. Then she slowly looked at Firyn and licked some rabbit off her maw. "We need to find a place first," she said slowly, her ears growing hot.

[- - mars]

"why not right here?" Firyn asked, finishing up the rest of the squirrel and flipping onto his back. he looked at her upside down, and frowned, "something wrong?"

[Blackberry]

Arrow flattened her ears. "Okay," she muttered, half to herself. "We can stay here." Then she got to her paws and padded down to the creek to get a drink.

[- - mars]

Firyn cocked his head and walked after her. "what's under your fur?" he asked softly, concern covering his face.

[Blackberry]

Arrow looked at him, surprised. "I'm just nervous about stating a pack," she said quietly. "That's all."

[- - mars]

Firyn nodded, but smiled softly, "don't worry about it, you're great. if anything, i should be the one worrying!" he laughed, nudging her shoulder playfully.

[Blackberry]

Arrow sighed with relief, and when he nudged her shoulder she nipped at his nose. "What? You? worry?" she repeated, tilting her head.
