Home of the Wolves. (Shiori, Starcatcher)

[Spritz]

(Excuse the topic name fail lmao)

A dark grey object streaked through the sky, the wind whistling softly over feathers. With swift and powerful downstrokes, the wolf propelled himself faster and faster, his strong muscles working and burning. Dark black eyes held the reflection of bright stars, large ears pinned back to his skull. His front legs were folded benieth him, back legs stretched out as he started to slow, nearing his destination.
Spirling down in large, lazy circles, he eventually landed on the soft turf of the forest. Opening his maw wide, a encompasing howl emitted from his throat. His brilliantly white, sharp fangs glinted in the moonlight, and he sat, curling his long tail around himself, spreading his ebony wings.

Larentia's thin, lithe body wound its way through the trees, dodging nimbly brambles and sharp, jutting rocks. She'd tried hunting once, but her odd coloring had given her away under the moon's glint, so she had been forced to give up and track the rabbit she now smelled. Nearing the rabbit now, she slowed and crouched down, shoulder-blades pointing majestically out, giving her the appearance of a big cat, not a wolf. She pricked her ears forward and stopped for a moment, then leaped.
Just as Larentia's claws had splayed and she was halfway to pouncing, a howl eminated from somewhere not too far away from her, and, in fright, the rabbit had dashed off, leaving Larentia's claws dug into nothing but dirt. Growling angrily, Larentia swished her tail and sat down, still in a foul mood, which reflected the howl she let go from her throat.

[ lol it's okay ]

Sunga-

The mighty wolves howl was cut short by another, to his right and not to far away. Snapping his jaws closed, his large ears pricked upwards, and he raised his muzzle into the air. Downwind from the new, and intreging visitor, he took in her scent. Stepping forward, his large dark paws landed on the earth without a sound, and he folded his enormous wings tightly to his back.
He yipped a greeting to whoever was there, then a rabbit went racing past. Without warning, the wolf changed his course, taking off after it, and as the bewildered animal tried to escape, the wolf pounced, sinking his teeth into its back, and hearing it snap.

[Guest]

Larentia wrapped her tail around her paws, her ears pinned slightly, rather upset that she hadn't gotten her rabbit. Her stupid, stupid, stupid coloration was as bad as not having two of her legs. She growled at the thought of it, but turned her head and pricked up her ears when she heard the strong yip of another wolf that was very close. It must've been the wolf she'd heard earlier. She barked at it, not in an angry way, though, until she heard it spin on its hind legs and speed off, though to where, she wasn't sure.
Sighing heavily, Larentia got to her feet and shook herself off, her stomach rumbling loudly and walked over to a bush, smelling berries on it and eagerly picking some off one-by-one to eat them. At least they'd satisfy a measely portion of her hunger, until she could find another rabbit or deer to eat.

[Spritz]

Snapping up the body in his jaws, Sunga trotted forward, his large ears pricked upwards. Following the scent of the other wolf, he quickly found her.
Slowly aproaching her, he kept his head down, showing her he didn't mean to be a threat. He gently dropped the rabbit near her, then backed away, his deep eyes looking at her softly.

[Guest]

Larentia flicked her ears behind her when she heard footsteps and turned around to see a large male wolf. Or...was it a wolf? It looked more like a giant....well, wolf, she guessed, but as she turned her head around to see his back, she saw feathered wings. Larentia was wondering what kind of creature this was, but as soon as she glanced down at the rabbit (immediately noticing it was the rabbit she had tried to catch), she smiled a wolfy grin and began to eat. Politely, of course, even though her ravenging hunger made her want to gulp it down in one bite.
Larentia, even though she was a wolf, had more manners than that.

Valita looked around the forest. She heard nothing but the calls of lonliness. She then was out of it when she heard the laughs of other wolves. She looked up and lowered her head, eyes filmy but she held them back. She kept walking on, but those wolves teasing and laughing filled her head. She walked on to hear a howl. She lifted her head. She then lowered her head and walked. She went into her small den and sat by the entrance, tail curled. Quietly, she started to sing.

Sunga's ears flickered, one pointed forward, the other back, listening for any night sounds that were unusual. Where his wings connected to his shoulders, soft black downy feathers ruffled softly in the breeze, as did the leaves, shuffling overhead. The moon cast a errie glow to the forest, coating the trees, the shrubs, the ground with a beautiful silver light. The large male was siloughetted by the moon, his figure dark, but he stood in a relaxed posture, his tail wagging softly, head cocked to the side, mouth open a tiny bit.

[Guest]

After eating, Larentia licked her lips and shook herself off, "Thanks," she yawned, snapping her jaws shut after stretching, then flicked her ears and turned her head to the left, hearing a soft voice but not sure what it was. Her ears pricked forward, and she furrowed her brows, but turned back to the male shortly after, not able to make out the words of the song. "I'm Larentia." Larentia wagged her tail slightly. Now that she wasn't hungry anymore, her usual, spunky self was coming around. She could be rather hyper and friendly at times, and this was one of those times. Being hungry put her in a bad mood, but she felt very thankful to this stranger since he had given her food.

Valita stopped singing and lowered her head and ears. She got up and walked, head completly down, heading towards a small pond for a drink. She stopped there and lowered her muzzle all the way for sips of the cool but warm water. She sat down and listened to the water, covering her eyes. She felt so lonley and her stomach hurt from lonliness.

[Spritz]

Sunga nodded, cocking his large head to one side, dark eyes watching her intently. He didn't speak quite yet, and lifted a paw off of the ground. He shifted weight, then opened his mouth to speak. "Larentia. My pleasure to help you." He offered politley, smiling kindly. "My name is Sunga." The wolves voice was deep and mysterious, but holding no threat. It matched his looks perfectly, and the wolf stepped closer, his ash grey fur rustling slightly in the breeze. His ears pricked upwards as he heard something, a noise from behind him, and he turned, his hair rising on his spine and the back of his neck.

[Guest]

Larentia wagged her tail a moment until he turned around, and she cocked her head. "What is it?"
Larentia had noticed that the sound of singing had gone away, but she was still quite interested in who had been singing. It had been soft, delicate... But it had stopped now, and Larentia had no way of finding out who it had been. Sighing inwardly, Larentia trotted over to Sunga and stood beside him, her tail wagging very slowly, curious.

[❥ Destiny Styles]

Valita sighed and heard the sounds of voices. She stopped, heart beating frantically. She just felt like the world was out to tease her. Always being teased all the time. She didn't dare go look for them. A feminie voice and a brute's that all she knew. The scent was also new to her. She couldn't leave. What if they heard her singing? Would they like it?

[Spritz]

Sunga raised his mighty head, opening his maw and letting out a soft, kind yip. Wagging his tail slightly as the female joined him at his side, his opened his great wings, spreading them out up and behind him. Opening his mouth, he panted quietly, ears pricked upwards and waiting for a response.

[Guest]

Larentia stared at Sunga's wings for a moment, a bit shy of them and taking a tentative step to the side, afraid she'd get hit. Larentia barked playfully and bounded off into the woods, towards the place where she had heard the singing. Hopefully, the wolf that had owned the soft voice was still there, and she would be able to talk to her. Larentia, after nearly tripping over a tree root, came to a stop to see a lovely fae, and Larentia smiled and walked over quietly, head lowered slightly, before saying, "Hi!"

[❥ Destiny Styles]

Valita was suprised to see a female. She looked at her, eyes showing their whites. She rose one paw and looked away into the pond. "Hi..." she said softly. Her voice was always soft. She looked back at the female and expected her to laugh. That's what eveyone did with her right. Calling he names and such, even though she wanted them to stop.

[Guest]

Larentia smiled and bounded around the female in circles. "I'm Larentia," she said before nudging the fae's shoulder. "I heard you singing. You have a really lovely voice." Larentia stopped in front of the fae, up to her ankles in the lukewarm water, her tail wagging very fast and her tongue lolling out of one side of her mouth. "Why are you all alone?" Larentia tilted her head, curious.

[Spritz]

Seeing the female leave, Sunga raised his tail and trotted after her, skillfully leaping through the underbrush. He stopped as she did, and watched a new wolf with curiousity, cocking his head to one side. Gracefully stepping forward, he lowered his head, and folded his wings to his back, dark eyes watching her warrily, as he had done with Larienta.

[❥ Destiny Styles]

Valita lowered her head to look at the ground when the female named, Larentia asked why she was alone. "Because no one likes me. I'm always outside of the crowd." she whispered. "I'm Valinta." she said and lifted her head.

[Guest]

Larentia frowned, "I don't see why. You're very pretty." Larentia smiled gently and hopped out of the water, shaking herself off slightly before nipping Valinta's ear gently. "You can hang out with me, if you want." Larentia swished her tail slowly and stared at Valinta expectantly. She only slightly realized that she was being a bit over-friendly, but Larentia had major mood swings, and this was one of her better ones, so she just went with it.

[Spritz]

Sunga stayed back in the shadows, eying the two faes curiously. He lifted a paw, ready to step forward, but then placed it back onto the ground and stayed where he was, blending into the dark shadows. His ebony wings folded tight to his back, and his black eyes glittered softly. As Larienta shook herself off, drops of water splashed onto Sungas face, and he shook himself off.

[❥ Destiny Styles]

Valita's eyes followed around the female and a smile creeped her lips. "You think so?" she asked, cocking her head and blinking. Wow, she was called pretty but she was teased. This female was very nice. She then came up with a bigger smile when she heard the female. Her tail started to wag. "Yeah!" she exclaimed. She smiled

[Guest]

Larentia turned to Sunga, and she smiled a bit shyly. "That's Sunga," Larentia said, turning back to Valita, smiling, "He's really nice." Larentia wagged her tail and then sat down, looking between the two wolves.

[ major brain fart ]

[Spritz]

Sunga sneezed, shaking the water off of his nose, then stepped out of the shadows, joining the pair and standing at Larienta's side as he did so. Wagging his tail softly, he sniffed the stranger in a friendly manner, lifting a paw, then settling down on his hindquarters, sitting down and wrapping his tail around his front legs.
