When one life falls apart, its time to start over (pg13)

[Shadow-Walker]

Then
A small den sat in the center of a field as an awkward silence fell over the forest and over the members of a small pack as the female licked a tiny black ball of fur that was just born. Everyone was in aw but that was quickly disturbed as a large muscular midnight black wolf came through the tall weeds and grass of the forest floor. As he walked into the den he saw the tiny pup hudled beside his mother as he stuck out like a sore thumb up against his mothers pure white pelt. The female slowly lowered her head and let her ears fall back against her skull as she let out a slight whimper to the large male. He didn't say anything all he did was look at the female then walk out of the den in disgrace at how small and tiny the pup was compared to other pups that have been born in the pack.
A year later
As months passed the tiny pup grew and grew, his mother stayed in the background and watched as her only son grew up to be just like father in everyway. As he grew into his skin more and more each day he resembled that large midnight black wolf that left his mother to defend for herself and the pup as he took the pack away. The pure white female soon fell ill after getting an infection from a wound that was caused by a bull elk during a trianing session as she taught her son how to hunt. A week later as the black wolf drug a small fawn back to the den for his mother he found her lifeless body laying still and feeling like a stone to the touch. he lifted his head high and let out a slow and mournful howl that seemed to project throughout the forest as everything fell silent. It seemed as if the wind had even stoped blowing to him, he slowly nudged the lifeless corpse as he gave a final good-bye and left his birthplace.
Now
A large midnight black wolf stalked in the night with bright yellow gleaming eyes. He seemed to melt into the blackness of the forest as the night sky cloaked him in an invisble coat as he hunted. His powerful legs carried him long and far untill he came to that same small clearing where he was brought into this world and where his world fell apart. He let his head fall near the grassy floor as his paws seemed to drag across the ground as he slowly made his way towards the small den. He walked into the den and saw nothing but emptyness, he put his nose near the ground where his mother has passed away and it still smelled the same to him, after all these years he still remembered what happened. He slowly made his way out of the den and started to have a slight flashback of that ungratfeul day. As he looked in the distance from where he was sitting he saw that young black wolf dragging a small fawn behind him, His eyes followed the wolf into the den where he saw his mothers' body once again, after a few moments he let out a mournful howl again but this wasn't the young wolf howling. This howl held different meanings in it than before, this howl had the sadness and mournfullnes as it had before but it held a bit of loneliness in it also. he let his head drop and hes collapsed to the grassy floor and started to whimper, he layed at the mouth of the den and watched over it acting like he did when his mother first fell ill. Everytime a animal came by the den he let out a snarl and growl even at a small rabbit, and at a large buck that only huffed and shook his atlers trying to scare the wolf away only to be defeated by the wolf's pain and sadness.

Alaska ambled along a deer path that cut through the dense bushes. She held her nose low, taking in all the scents that lay before her. then an unfamiliar one entered her nose. it was another wolf. It was no celebration, she had passed other wolfs before. She did not feel threatened either because she did not smell a pack. only a lone wolf. that meant that there would be no territorial male. She continued on her set path. She had no destination in her mind, but she continued on with will. A clearing snuck up on Alaska as the scent of the other wolf grew stronger. She planned to pass by, not giving a bother about the wolf. But when she laid eyes on the stray, her heart skipped a beat at the strange fur color. She had never seen any like it before. He blended in so well, that she was startled when she actually made out the shape of the wolf. She paused for a moment, looking at it. She expected no response, and she did not plan to go closer. Then she began to continue on her way.

(Thanks and the picture is pretty. Oh and jinx will be aggressive at first but he'll chill out soon.)

As the large male continued to stay where he was laying he let his yellow eyes scan the nearby tree line of the meadow. As he kept scanning the area his eyes landed on a smaller wolf that was probably just an inch or so shorter than he was stand for a moment then continue on her way. The black wolf perked his ears forward but kept his head laying on his paws as he watched the figure move, he gave a slight growl and pushed himself up to standing position and sauntered after he growling while he did so.

(Okay)

Senorita, as she was strangley named, walked through the woods. Her sense of smell was gone, her cold sole it away from her. Stepping into a empty clearing, or so she thought, she spotted a small den. Without a thought the heavily pregnant fea trotted toward it slowing cautiously as she neared. Sticking her head into what seemed abandon to the unable to smell fae she entered curling up in a conner. A loud sneeze left her as she sprawled out winning, she felt horrible. She had been sick with a normal short lasting cold for the last three days.

Alaska trotted forward away from the male. she pinned her ears in annoyance.

(sss)
(hey do you want this thread to be with talking animals or should it just be behavioral?)

[Shadow-Walker]

(Its fine and it can have a little bit of both.)

Jinx watched as she kept walking so he sped up his walking keeping his ears pinned. He let out a low growl before running after her, once he had caught up with her and cut her off and lowered his head giving off a loud growl. "Do you know you crossed into my territory?" He let his yellow eyes scan her features as he continued to growl towards her "I don't take kindly to stray females wondering in and out of my territory like its nothing."

[horsegodess]

(okay)

Alaska was startled when the male wolf came up behind her. His black pelt gave him an eery feeling. she stopped and said, "sorry. im just passing through." she looked at his face seeing his surface aggression. "ill be on my way now" She said. and began to amble along. she was a very easygoing wolf.

[Shadow-Walker]

When she had started to walk off he let a snarl rip through his chest before going after he again. He pinned his ears and held his tail up slightly "Don't you know its disrespectful to turn away from an alpha when he's speaking." He growled again and watched her for a moment before raising his head a bit sniffing the air and growled when he smelled another wolf. He looked back to the female "Come to the clearing with me."

[horsegodess]

Alaska rolled her eyes at the male. 'whatever' she thought. she didnt have anything better to do. she followed the male to the clearing, waiting to see what he wanted. she looked at him in expectancy.

[Guest]

(Bump shadow.)

[Shadow-Walker]

Jinx looked at the female before returning the clearing with her follwing him, when he had arrived back in the clearing his hackled stood on end as he made his way slowly to the den where he smelt the new wolf. He pinned his ears slightly and growled lowly, when he looked into the den and realized that the female was heavily pregnant he clamed down and looked at her "What is your name female?"

[Guest]

Senorita stirred a little at the sounds around her and was some what awake when he came with the other fea. Suddenly she went into a sneezing frenzy before letting out a miserable whine. Still drowsy she looked at him and replied, " I'm Senorita, your not going to hurt me are you?" She said fearfully. She sat up unsteady looking like she'd loose her balance. "If this is you den I can go, I didn't realize- I can't smell." The young female stood and stumbled to the entrance prepared to leave, her eyes lids drooping some what over her watery eyes. Sneezing again she quickly apologized for getting germs on them, "I'm so sorry!" She said and coward a little.

[horsegodess]

Alaska gave a sympathetic look at the female wolf. She hoped that the male would not keep her because for sure he would kill her pups. Alaska waited beside the male wolf, waiting for his response.

[Shadow-Walker]

Jinx backed up a bit to give the young female to move out of the den and looked at her and felt some pity for her, "Where is your pack?" Just from how she looked and acted he guessed that she didn't have one, why would a pack let a young female that is heavily pregnant leave their safety? He looked at her again and sighed a bit 'You are fine where you are, I won't make you leave."

[Guest]

"I don't have one, nor a mate." She explained sadly. A look of shock crossed her face when he said she could stay. "Really?" Her voice was dumbfounded. Her tail started a bit of a wag, "Thank you so much!" The words ended in another sneeze. Turning she stiffly on clumsy legs made her way back into his den lying down where she had been before.

[Shadow-Walker]

Jinx sat down on his haunches and watched the young female walk back into the den and lay down where she was "I don't mean to intrude but were you forced?" He watched her for a moment more before standing back up and laying under one of the tall pine trees near the den.

[Guest]

Just like any girl would be the wolf was still sensitive on the subject. Her shifted uncomfortably looking down at her paws, "Yea" Her voice was barely a whisper and full of sadness. Closing her eyes she tried to brush it off.

[horsegodess]

Alaska slinked up in front of the male. "Leave her alone. that is not a topic to be mentioned". She stood in between the two, trying to create a figurative barrier on that topic. She slowly walked up to other female wolf and layed down next to her. She was feeling sympathetic being another female wolf who was aware of the problem of forcing that was so widespread. She layed there in silence hoping that the male would wander away and leave them to talk.

[Shadow-Walker]

Jinx laid his ears back some then stood up "I'm sorry." He turned around and walked to the other side of the field where the den was located and laid down there. While he was laying there he began to think back to what had happened a few days after he was born, even though i couldn't see he could still smell and feel the presence of others. He remembered being curled into his mothers side when a large presence filled the small space and was replaced by a whine then after that nothing, he also remembered his mother telling him that his father had left both of them for dead as he took their pack away deeper into the forest and mountains.

[horsegodess]

"You can't stay here. Don't you know that he will kill your pups if you do?" Alaska said quietly to the fae resting next to her.
