Re: A Storm is Coming [T]

[P r o m i s e r]

Rico whimpered. "I'm sorry." Rico whimpered to the brute, shaking nervously.

[Blackberry]

Storm ignored the whimpering apology and instead tasted the air. He could smell the faint scent of rabbit and followed it, tail erect.

[P r o m i s e r]

Rico and Leah went to the river to play. "OK, this time I'll hide!" Rico growled, scampering off for a hiding place. Leah started to count. Rico ran into a cave, and hid in a corner.

[Blackberry]

Storm managed to catch the rabbit. He heard counting and turned his head, ears pricked. He growled. Was that female still in his territory?

[P r o m i s e r]

Rico got bored and went to seek instead. "There you are!" Leah yowled. "Found you." She added, nuzzling her pup. Right when they got to the river, Leah's cannibal former mate stepped out of the shadows and growled. "Found YOU." He snarled. Leah was injured. She couldn't fight. Rico shoved his face in his mothers pelt. He knocked Leah out and snarled at the pup.

[Blackberry]

Storm had seen the wolf attack Leah. He perked her ears. Was this some kind of mating game? He snickered to himself. But it looked rather... not playful. But Storm wasn't about to interfere with this strange mating thing. He backed into the shadows, holding the rabbit. He jumped as his paw cracked a twig.

[P r o m i s e r]

That did it. Leah snarled and clawed the male, standing over her former mate. "Leave us alone!" She snapped. "No..." He growled. Leah grabbed Rico and dashed off.

[Blackberry]

Storm growled softly. Defiantly not a mating game. He got up and stalked off. His territory ended where the river was, but this male freaked him out and he wasn't about to chase him away.

[P r o m i s e r]

Soon Leah chased him off. Leah had hid her pup in a den, and went to get him.

[Blackberry]

Storm ate his rabbit, ears pricked. He knew that he had to get that female out of his territory, especially with that male that was now a potential threat.

[P r o m i s e r]

Leah grasped Rico and brought him to her den, to eat. Happily they ate together.

[Blackberry]

Storm carried the remains of his rabbit to his tree den and collapsed there, eating his rabbit ravenously.

[P r o m i s e r]

Thunder boomed. Rico yelped and whined at the sound as Leah wrapped her tail around him. "Mommy.... Why is that big wolf so mean?" He asked. "You'll learn when your older." She replied.

[Blackberry]

Storm stretched, letting his toes flex. His back arched and he let his limbs let out giant cracks. He yawned before laying down again, pawing idly at the bones.

[P r o m i s e r]

Leah passed his den, searching to make sure her former mate wasn't around. "You haven't seen that male around have you?" She asked Storm.

[Blackberry]

Storm was almost asleep when the female appeared. He stood, looming over her. With a thunder like growl he muttered, "No. But I hope he does so you can get out of my territory!"

[P r o m i s e r]

"For the last time, I have lived here all my life!" She snapped angrily. Leah's tail lashed. "Listen here. I am staying in this "territory" whether you like it or not, so I suggest shutting for jaws before I break them!" Leah roared, stalking off.

[Blackberry]

Storm growled softly. "Stubborn female," he muttered. His scratchy ears twitched and with his uninjured leg he scratched his side. He licked down his bristling fur and stretched again, enjoying the tingling feeling that rushed through his body as his muscles popped. Tongue hanging over the side of his jaw he lay down, tail curled around him. He huffed slightly. The female would be fine, as long as she stayed out of his way and didn't get in his way when he was hunting, walking around or getting a drink. And when that pup of hers grew up Storm knew he would be a problem. Two male wolves that weren't in a pack yet living in the same territory certainly would be a problem.

[P r o m i s e r]

(So what happens between them? Do they eventually grow to like each other or something?)

"Stubborn male." Leah growled, smiling at the sight of her pup. Padding into the den, she licked Rico lovingly. He squeaked in anger as he was being bathed.

[Blackberry]

(I don't know. I'm planning something)

Storm yawned. His muscles ached and seemed to cut against his skin. He whined softly and turned his body, letting it go limp.

[P r o m i s e r]

(Kk.)

Leah finished grooming her pup and took him out to play in the meadow. Rico yowled and bounced around in the wild flowers.

[Blackberry]

Storm licked his nose before closing his eyes and dozing off.

[P r o m i s e r]

Rico yipped happily and ran away from his mother. They were playing tag. "Got you!" Leah growled before dashing off rather slowly. Rico ran after her nimbly.

[Blackberry]

Storm got up and stretched. He grit his teeth together at the pain that shivered through his body. He was hurting so bad. The wolf yawned widely before sighing and padding off into his territory.

[P r o m i s e r]

Leah gazed down the slope at the male, her eyes narrowing.
