"I agree," he said, stepping closer. "We do need more order. And I would gladly take the rank of alpha, or leader. You're very smart, sharpclaw." He sat down, considering, and rubbed a paw down his long ashy muzzle. "By the way, what is your name? I can't call you sharpclaw forever." He looked at the Sharpclaw, ears pricked as he listened, his silver eyes shining as he began to think of ways to help the group or lead it. And ways to hunt, make a camp, and heal any injured animals.

"Well I should get going and find a den or cave that we can stay in. We never know what's out in the wild. I could also take the role of leader with Selene. Since it's better to have a male and female leader. Leading together. I say and lay down next to her

"I just got here so I'm not gonna take that position." I say and snuggle close to Timber purring slightly

"I agree Ace, that is why me and Sparrow will take the lead. We are mates after all." (First time most have heard this.) I stride confedantly towarads Sparrow and stand by his side.

Pandora shook her head and Blaze and Night's offers to get her food. "It's alright. Snakes can go a lot longer without eating than mammals. I'll be fine. I'm not hungry."

She listened to Bagheera's description of the python she'd met. "I don't think I've met him, but I'd like to," Pandora said. She loved to learn as much as she could, partially because knowledge could serve useful when she didn't have particular strength or speed, but mainly because she simply enjoyed learning about the unique wonders of the world. "I'd love to hear your stories too, Bagheera. You sound like you've learned a lot in your years."

Pandora didn't add anything when the group started talking about who should be leader. Many of the animals here had great leadership qualities. She knew that she didn't want to be leader herself. And she wondered if the group even needed a leader. It would allow for organization and quick decisions, but she also felt that each animal had their own knowledge and strengths, so it might be better to keep making decisions together.

"You guys just have to steal the show. Me and Selene were the ones who created this group therefore it would ask more sense for me and her to be the leaders. And me and Selene are mates to." I growl at Night viciously

He stood up next to Night, his long fur blowing in the bit of wind, his silver eyes gleaming. "I agree. Me and my mate, Nightingale, will lead this pack." He was surprised that she had decided to reveal that they were mates, but he didn't let that show. As Ace complained, he curled his lip slightly, showing a long white fang. "Don't snarl at my mate! And you didn't start this group, it formed on its own. Also, how long have you and Selene been mates? A few hours? Me and Night have been mates for almost a year." His eyes flashed, and his claws dug into the dirt as he tensed, hoping Ace wouldn't argue. He didn't want to have to be in a useless fight that would just break apart the group. But he wasn't going to back down, that was for sure.

I curl my lip at Sparrow." You weren't part of this conversation. And if that's the case I'll be leaving because I don't want a overprotective pile of a stray be my leader." I wasn't backing down anytime soon and he knew it." All you do these days is go off and talk to your mate. I've never had that big brother to look up to since you left me alone in a dumpster." I say and go in a defensive position

"Know what? I'm done apologizing. Ace, I didn't leave you in a dumpster, I got hit by a fluffing car! You left me! And now you're leaving again. I talk so much to my mate because she's the only one who actually cared! For years!" He felt a tear on his cheek, but swiped it away furiously, snarling at Ace. His ears flattened. "I may be a bad leader because of how grumpy I am, and how stressed I get, but I would never leave this pack now. I care about these animals, even that fanged tube." He gestured at the brown, scary thing.
