Re: Beowulf, shadow walker

[Guest]

(hey sorry!)
{Iris}
I smiled at Ember Eyes, "Hi, I'm Iris, are you a friend of Beowulf?" I laid down on my left side, my right paw pulsed with pain. I watched as Beowulf jumped onto the bear, then as the bear with one swift movement flung him 10 feet away. He landed with a hard thud and I yelped, it hurt me and I wasn't even anywhere near him. I got up, forgetting my paw and started to run towards him. My first step on my right paw sent pain shooting through my arm to my shoulder, but I ignored it, running faster. I stepped on it for a second time and that's when the pain had become too much. I landed on it slightly wrong and I heard a pop and shrieked a high pitched shrill sound. I fell instantly, my breathing jagged. I began to feel hot even on the snow, and slowly drifted into unconciousness.

I awoke with Ember Eyes looking over me, I looked around. We were far in the den, away from the entrance so that no scavenger could smell my blood. I winced, trying to sit up. "Where's Rebel Night? Is Beowulf ok?" I muttered. I stood up, my right paw in the air. I leaned against Ember Eyes and saw a glowing light towards the entrance to the cave. I squinted and could make out two large shapes. A grin spread across my face, I began trying to hobble towards them. The light disappeared and I heard a growl unlike one from Beowulf, it sounded purely evil, angry, and twisted. My smile quickly disappeared, but I heard Rebel Night's voice and my smile came back. I heard them bolt out of the cave, a frown covered my face, a tear escaping my glossy eyes. I yelped after them, hoping they would hear me. Without luck I began trying to hobble to the entrance, they would come back. Ember Eyes just moved along with me, only acting as a crutch. I whispered, "They'll be back right?"

~Ember Eyes~

My large ember colored eyes smiled kindly as I nodded. "Yes, of course. They have only gone out to hunt for all of us." My voice was not deep but not high pitched either. "Here you better rest. I have already fixed you once, and it would be to painful to do again." I say as I gently lay her down. My slightly larger figure looming over her I prick my ears and listen to the out side world.

~Beowulf~

Grinning, I bunch my muscles and in a single leap I was upon the doe. My large canines sliding into her throat easily, instantly cutting off her air supply. The doe crashed to the ground from my large weight, and partially from not being able to breathe. I give a vicious jerk, breaking her neck in a single second. I drop her and grin at Rebel Night.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i chuckled and look at him "show off" i walk to him and look over the deer "wow nice doe"

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I grin and pounce on her lightly then jump back after nipping at her throat. Grinning I wink. "Thats the only way to go as I see it." I laugh then grab one of the doe's legs and start the trek to head back home.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i laughed when he pounced on me and jump back up laughing "uh huh ok Beowulf" i smirked and fallow him "want help?"

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I tug at it and smile. "Sure" I mumble around the leg in my mouth. I lift my tail high, along with my head, and start walking back towards the Den proudly once again.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i chucked and smirk "ok" i grab a leg and start pulling it with him, i look over at him and cant help but smile he looked so funny acting all proud and stuff

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I pull faster and grin when she stumbles. "Gotcha"

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i stumbled then shoot him a look "oh you asked for it" i growled playing and tackle him to the ground, i match his grin "gotcha"

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I grin up at her then grab her around the scruff of her neck and flip her on her back. I stand over her growling playfully.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i squealed surprised and land with a "oof" i growled playing "its not fare! your huge!" i say play pouting then jump up with a grin

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I grin. "I guess I do have an advantage."

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i smirked "yea but im faster" i wag my tail and growled playfully

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

I roll my eyes in a sarcastic playful manner. "Sure" Then I grab a leg of the doe again. "Better get this back before nightfall, which i'm sure we can make it since Your fast." I say with a teasing smile.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i rolled my eyes and grab a leg "just pull, dork" i mumbled draging the doe

[Guest]

~Ember Eyes~

My large ember colored eyes smiled kindly as I nodded. "Yes, of course. They have only gone out to hunt for all of us." My voice was not deep but not high pitched either. "Here you better rest. I have already fixed you once, and it would be to painful to do again." I say as I gently lay her down. My slightly larger figure looming over her I prick my ears and listen to the out side world.

The doe crashed to the ground from my large weight, and partially from not being able to breathe. I give a vicious jerk, breaking her neck in a single second. I drop her and grin at Rebel Night.

(hey sorry!)

{Iris} I sighed, "I hope so." I hobbled one more step and nodded my small, delicate head, "Yeah, I guess you're right." I let Ember Eyes lay me down and forced myself to not look at my leg, it would only make the pain feel worse. Instead I looked up at Ember Eyes and noticed her ember eyes, "Must be where her name comes from." I thought. She loomed over me, seeming to be listening to the noises outside the cave. She seemed slightly bigger than me and I figured she was kind since she said, 'I already fixed you once'. Only someone who really cared for others, even if they didn't know them, would help them. I spoke, breaking the silence, "Thank you for all that you've done. I'm glad you didn't leave me to die alone." I hadn't meant for that sound as if I was dying, I wasn't, I just was too tired to speak up again and say what I meant. I hoped she knew what I meant and I wouldn't have to speak up or get my story straight.

(is ember eyes a girl or boy? sorry if you think the name would make it obvious but i think it could go either way...)

[Guest]

(lol its alright, Ember Eyes is a guy)

Ember Eyes: I turn and smile down at her, wagging my slightly fluffy tail. "Tis' no problem, miss Iris." My head jerks back to the entry way and I bark happily when I hear Beowulf and the other she wolf coming. "Soon it be time to eat." I say happily and almost bounce with excitement as I bark a few more times rapidly.

Beowulf: I grin at Rebel. "Whatever you say." And continue pulling. Hearing Ember Eyes barking, I hurry and pull faster. Dropping my leg as soon as we get to the entrance of the tunnel. I bark once loudly and happily.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night:
i chuckled and rolled my eyes pulling the doe, i drop the leg i was pulling and smiled "Iris!" i ran into the den seeing her, i wag my tail excited to see her

[Guest]

Beowulf~

I grin and wait outside as the females reunited. I wanted to protect our food and to just be alone for a moment. It was nice to finally have a caring family by my side now. And I planned on not messing anything up. I turn and look inside the Den, grinning when I see Rebel hugging Iris. I bark happily a couple times and wagged my tail furiously.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night~
i barked happily and then looked at Ember Eyes "wait who are you?" i say curiously. Beowulf wasnt treated by him so i wasnt going to rip him to shreds. i sit down still happy to see Iris

[Guest]

Ember Eyes: I sit down and curl my long fluffy tail around myself. My ember colored eyes looking at Rebel. Then I smile, "My name is Ember Eyes. I am a good friend of Beowulf's." My voice is deep and smooth like chocolate. Looking past her I see Beowulf at the opening of the Den. I watch him a second before returning my gaze to Rebel's.

Beowulf~

I look in and smile as I see Ember Eyes introduce himself to Rebel Night. Then I frown for a moment and look up at the star dusted sky. Please, oh please, don't let him be bringing me bad news.

[LoveOnHerArms]

Rebel Night~
i looked at him and smiled "oh cool, im Rebel Night" i looked at him closely "wait are you a shadow wolf too?" i ask softly wrapping my tail around my legs. could he be another shadow wolf? i thought the only one around here was Beowulf and me.

[Guest]

{Iris}
My face brightens as I hear Beowulf and Rebel Night enter the cave. I try to step forward but stop to not cause my paw anymore harm. I grin widely as Rebel Night races towards me. I bark excitedly and then I was engulfed in a hug from her. I pulled back to look at her, I smiled brightly and said, "Its so good to see you!" I peered around her, "Is Beowulf...?" My voice stopping as I saw him looking up, a frown spread across his face. I was going to ask if he was okay from the fight with the bear, but now I was wondering if he was okay at all. I decided that he maybe just needed time alone but my stomach began to grumble loudly. I tried to hold in my laugh, but it came out as giggles, "I guess I'm hungry!"

[Guest]

~Beowulf~

My ears catch Iris's comment and I nod, plastering a fake smile on my face. Turning to face them I wag my tail. "Come outside and eat! It is good." I say with a smile, then my eyes go to those of Ember Eyes. "Ember, follow me." I trot down the slope away from the food and the others. I sit down next to a big boulder and wait for him there.

Ember Eyes~

My face softens some at Rebel Nights question and I shake my head sadly. "I'm sorry my dear, but I am not a Shadow wolf. I worked with and for shadow wolves. But I am not one." My large ears hear Beowulfs question and I get up and slowly run after him. My sleeking form comes up next to his much larger one and I sit opposite of him and look into his eyes. "I'm sorry Beowulf...But you know when he calls..." I was cut short by Beowulf's sharp gaze and blazing eyes.

[Guest]

{Iris}
I smile and wag my tail. I call back, "We'll be right there!" I look over at Ember Eyes and as I'm about to say [i]Mins helping me again?[i/], but he ran after Beowulf. Just before he left, the intensity of his eyes finally registered. His eyes were a striking ember, I couldn't get them out of my mind. I looked over at Rebel Night and asked, "Mind helping me?" I looked out to the entrance of the cave where the doe laid limply. Beowulf and Ember Eyes were nowhere to be seen, I looked back at Rebel Night, "I hope everything is alright."
