| | She hid behind him shaking with her tail in between her legs this new she-wolf was vary intimidating to her |
|
| | Oh its you again! He said wagging his tail |
|
| | Viva la Gloria walked away from nimble, and found night seeker, nova, and a new wolf. |
|
| | He looked at her with pity remembering that he also lost his pack ok, you can tag along he said then added just keep up and he picked nova up and started to walk away |
|
| | M-me? Oh n-no I lost m-my pa-pack She said as she dropped down her head with sadness |
|
| | He looked at the She-wolf and put nova down why? Dont you have a pack? He asked a little suspicious of the wolf |
|
| | W-w-wait! P-please? Hot pepper said m-m-May I j-join your p-p-pack? She asked |
|
| | "And as an alpha, you should know best of all not to share pack secrets," Nimble pointed out, her bushy tail lashing. |
|
| | Night seeker soon looked back at the She-wolf and said Ill be going now, be careful and he picked up nova and started walking away |
|
| | "I know you are lying," viva la Gloria told Nimble, plainly an calmly. "I am alpha of the pack novicane, I know lies." |
|
| | Nimble's ears flattened even more, nearly reaching her skull. She knew she'd have to make an attempt to lie - if she told the truth, she'd have to divulge pack secrets. And she wasn't going to risk that, not now, not ever.
Nimble took in a gust of air and let it out in a deep breath, steeling herself, before she responded. "Oh, just thought I'd come out here and enjoy the weather," she rolled around a pebble using her paw, hoping to appear casual. "Today's the first day it hasn't been too cold for my liking."
Her beady eyes held an underlying spark of nervous anticipation as she waited to see if Viva la Gloria believed her. |
|
| | "Why are you out here, and not in your den?" Viva la Gloria asked. |
|
| | Nimble's ears flew back and she narrowed her eyes at Viva la Gloria's question. She was tempted to mouth off a bit, ask her what exactly she was implying, but Nimble refrained.
Instead, she just settled on, "Yes, I do. It's my name, after all. Or part of it, anyway." |
|
| | Im glad your ok night seeker said then heard nova cry out scared he ran over to the bush he put her in and pulled her out hey your ok nova, your safe he said in a calming tone |
|
| | Hot pepper looked at the black wolf with black wings and fangs I..Im, f..f.fine she shuddered still scared of the fox |
|
| | "Do you want to be called Nimble, though?" She asked. |
|
| | Nimble's head shot up at the other wolf's tone. The stranger had a firm, authoritative way of speaking, her stance strong, confident. She had the appearance of a leader, and Nimble knew to choose her words carefully.
She dipped her head in a respectful fashion. "I'm Nimble Foot," she spoke, her tone calm in spite of the way her mottled fur puffed out nervously. "You can call me Nimble, though. Everyone else does," her voice weakened at the end of her sentence, her uncertain gaze dropping to her paws.
|
|
| | Nova's cries stopped and viva la Gloria was left worried. So she told smoke step that she will be back. She suddenly saw a wolf with brown fur that looked sad, drinking out of a stream. "Who are you?" Viva la Gloria asked the new wolf. |
|
| | Nimble trotted into the vast expanse of forest, tension rolling away with each step. Her pack was in shambles; an explosion of differing opinions, spurred by the recent boom of human activity in their territory. Even the alphas were at odds.
One side wanted to move, concerned with the safety of the pack. The other, wanted to stay and tough it out. Clinging to familiarity, perhaps?
Then there was Nimble. She was with the silent minority who saw the pros and cons of each argument, stuck in the middle, disregarded.
And that's how she got here. She needed to clear her head. One part of her debated leaving for good, to find another pack. This wasn't a concrete idea, though. Her mind was too jumbled for clear thinking.
She kept moving, finding comfort under the shade of oak trees. She had reached the edge of her pack's territory. A river marked the border. The water was calm, she wished to be the same.
With a deep sigh, she dipped her head and drank from the stream. Her worries were not gone, just temporarily forgotten, still worming through the outskirts of her head. |
|
| | Viva la Gloria had a strike of pity for the wolf.
"You can stay here as long as you'd like." Then she heard the pup who she had saved cry. |
