Kea's little head bent down as the pu tugged on her ear. She prodded the pup gently with a paw and lifted her head back up.
Sundaisy carefully walked in a circle around Rave, her curiosity was pegged by the unsocial wolf and she walked closer and poked him with a paw. She let out a yip and jumped away, circling again and prodding him with the paw.
((This is my chance to get in some fun time annoying Rave... >:3))

lysalia was mildly indignant from being disloged from kea's ear so easily, but then she saw an even better, with a yip she ran several circles around kea before grabbing hold of the older wolf's tail.

Kea fell over, giving up at the pups excitement and let out a soft laugh. She flicked her tail lightly watching the pup grip onto her tail. "I hope I don't lose my tail from this!"

Soluc responded to the lick very well, even though that lick made the fur on his head stick up a bit. He yipped again, ran another circle around her and nipped at her long legs playfully.
Rave watched Sundaisy, his eye brow raised again and he sighed, slightly annoyed at what she was doing and all he could so was watch. He flicked his tail, twice and then he gently brushed his tail at her several times. Maybe it would get her attention away from poking him.

Raika smiled as the little pup ran around, nipping at her legs.
Raven slowly walked over to Sayemad at smelled him, waiting to see what he would do.

Splash!
Ah, the sound of something solid hitting the otherwise serene surface of the water. Phft, peace could only last for so long. A lone black he-wolf stood about ankle-deep in water, some glops of mud sticking to his pelt and causing it to clump and spike in odd directions.
Splash!
Suddenly the loner sprang, only to land back in the calm water and disturb those poor fish. A sky blue dragonfly buzzed lazily above the wolves' head, just out of his reach as if taunting him. Piper needed a serious break from traveling, and this quick game of tag with a bug helped him relax.
Splash!
Piper missed again, and one of his forepaws landed awkwardly on a slick branch of a nearby tree that had fallen into the water, causing him to slip. The onyx brute fell forward into the water, only to jump to his paws again. "Okay, now you just aren't playing fair."
Splash!
Piper missed a third time. The ebon male had no idea he was trespassing, as he had been too absorbed in his game to notice the scent marks. The dragonfly grew tired of being swatted at, and hummed swiftly away, leaving Piper watching it go and laughing cheerfully. "I'll get ya' next time!"
The midnight-colored brujo slowly got out of the water and shook himself vigorously, sending droplets of water spraying in all directions. Piper realized it looked as if something big had just taken a turd on him with all the mud, and with a grunt sat down and set to work, combing the sludge out with his teeth.

Kealynn's ears perked up for a moment. She focused her attention on the splashing and sounds she had heard near by. Slowly, she got up onto her paws pressing away the pup clinging to her tail with a firm paw. She nudged the pup over to her mother and slowly started to sneak along over to where she had heard the sound earlier. Her paws shifted quietly as she strode along, crouched to the ground following the scent of it. "I've never sented this wolf before.." She thought to herself. She peered from behind a fallen log behind some bushes to see Piper near the water groming himself.
Then... she carefully manuvered around it... "I'm not about to let this one get to the pups!" She thought to herself

Now, Piper again was too busy to notice anything except the fact that mud tasted awful. If he had known he was being watched, the black male would have found out and assured his observer that he meant absolutely no harm to anyone.
Spitting (as well as a wolf can) some muck out of his mouth, Piper decided that he was clean enough, and any remaining dirt or mud would simply have to stay plastered to his coat for the time being. Rising onto all fours again, the ebony he-wolf went into a cat-like stretch, yawning as he did so.
Straightening, Piper took a second to admire his surroundings a little. Nice day to be alive. He thought, smiling faintly. Much better than the area I used to live in. He added ruefully, his tail swaying from side to side as he took a quick glance around. Still, Kealynn's presence went unnoticed.
Piper started to move again, his gait a slow, moseying walk, continuing to unintentionally go deeper into pack territory. Suddenly, the charcoal brute's nose quivered, his ears leapt forward and he stopped, one forepaw frozen in mid-air, poised, ready to bolt off if he needed to.
"I know you're here." Piper barked after a moment of silence, alerting the unknown wolf that her presence had been detected. "And I'm not quite sure why you're hiding from me..." The midnight-colored loner said, lowering his posture a bit in a defensive position.

Rave sighed and lowered his head down to the ground, his eyes still on the little Sundasiy but he had given up trying to get rid of her, instead he just watched her and decided to let her have her fun. He turned his attention to the other pups and wolves around him until he noticed something with Kea. It seemed she had became alert with something and watched closey with his eyes. Detacting herself from the pup and running off. He raised his brows and raised up again as she left the den area. "Hmm.."

Sundaisy tugged on Rave's ear playfully wondering what the much bigger wolf was doing. She pawed at him for a bit longer and tugged on his ear again.
Kealynn froze in her position. She felt a strange fury at why he would even wonder why she was stalking him from afar. She wanted to check where he was going. A sudden reaction within her, caused her to crouch and jump forward tackling the wolf with paws waving in a mad fury trying to get at the other wolf. She let out an annoyed snarl trying to pin him down before he could fight back or run. "What do are you doing in our territory exactly?" She peered down at the wolf her expression stone faced and cold.

"Yipe!" Piper cried, taking a sudden blow to the shoulder blade. The ebony male whipped about to face Kealynn, only to be struck less-than-gently across the muzzle by the female's windmilling paws. His gold eyes watered, and his face screwed up in pain.
Piper quickly crouched however, ready to defend himself in battle...only to be quickly flipped over onto his back, exposing his soft, vulnerable underbelly. The lucid he-wolf was taut all over, but didn't fight back, too surprised to even think about an escape plan.
Piper stared up at his attacker blankly for a few moments, absolutely dumbstruck by her sudden appearance. When she spoke, the charred brute looked confused as well as terrified. But, who wouldn't be afraid in his position? "Your territory?" He repeated.
!@#$ it all the Hell! See what happens when you just walk, and don't pay any attention to where you step? Piper thought, furious with himself for making such a stupid mistake. The charcoal loner lowered his ears and averted his eyes, doing his best to seem apologetic.
"I-I'm sorry, I didn't know this area belonged to anyone. If I had, I wouldn't have come into your territory." Piper stammered, squirming a bit to try and free himself of Kealynn's hold. "Or at least not without asking permission to pass through first." The obsidian young wolf added.

A flash of sympathy for the wolf passed her face for a moment. She tried to keep a straight serious face, but she couldn't help but feel sorry for the wolf. "Didn't you see where you were going," She asked as she stepped away from the dark wolf. She took a hard look at the wolf, he wasn't from the other pack from his scent so he might not have any evil plans in store for the pups. She spoke after a period of time, "So where are you from and what are you doing here?" She voiced the question in a more friendly and relaxed way, showing she wasn't going to try and harm him again.

Piper felt a wave of relief flood through him when Kealynn released her hold on him, but just to make sure he was all in one piece he waved his paws in the air, tail swaying from side to side. Four paws...fur...tail...still alive...still alive. The loner thought, rolling over and getting to his paws.
Piper guiltily lowered his head and tail, his pointed ears still pressed against his head. "I was...playing a game and unh, didn't notice the scent marks." The dark-colored male admitted sheepishly, drawing a awkward circle in the dirt with a forepaw.
Piper took his chance to look at the female more closely, and, making sure not to make his observation too obvious, looked her up and down. Tall, young, black coat, green eyes...say, she looks a little like me! He thought, smiling slightly to himself at the idea.
When Kealynn asked another question Piper was dragged away from his wandering thoughts. "I'm from...unh..." The young male trailed off a little, his mind jumbled, not really sure which way he came. "All over." Yes, that would do... "Are you your pack's guardian?"
Shrugging off his own question, Piper launched into the answer of the 'what are you doing here?' question. "I've been trying to find my sister...I guess I just kind of wandered here by mistake." The ebony he-wolf frowned sadly at the thought of Amber, but brightened a bit. "My name's Piper by the way."

Kealynn gave one of her ever so famous playful grins. "Okay Piper and I wouldn't call myself the pack's guardian." She said this with amusment in her voice tail flicking from side to side in a relaxed motion. She saw no reason to hurt the male who seemed innocent by all means. "I'm just an average wolf protecting our pack and I thought of you as a threat so I must apologize for what I did." Kealynn said this and bowed her head in apology more goofy then serious about her mistake. The male wolf seemed to be more easy going then freaked out from before when she had startled him. "Say what does your sister look like? Perhaps one of our clan might have seen her before! You should come with me! We could help you find her may-" She trailed off remembering the fact that there were pups that needed to be watched and taken care of. ~Oh great now I remember that!! Real smooth Kealynn!!~ She thought to herself.

There were three reasons why Piper was able to bounce back from his shock so quickly. One was the fact that he hadn't been severely injured, only having a few faint scratches on his cheek where Kealynn's claws had raked through flesh. The second reason was slightly different.
It was simply in Piper's nature to be quick to forgive. Not that he was really in a place to 'forgive' the female. After all, he had been the one trespassing. The third reason was simple. Now that he had explained himself, Kealynn seemed far less intimidating then before.
"Apologize? No, no, no, miss. I, must apologize." Piper said, allowing his ears to go back up to their normal position but keeping his head bowed. Don't make her think you think you're all high and mighty, 'cause you know you're not. He told himself sharply.
Piper thought for a second before describing his sibling. "Well, she doesn't really look like me, but she's the same age as me. Got brown fur, orange eyes...sorta big for a female, stocky." The ebony he-wolf barked, only then realizing just how different Amber looked compared to him.
Piper gave Kealynn a strange look when he realized she had abruptly stopping talking. "Um, everything all right?" The charred brute asked, raising his head and tipping it curiously to one side. I should probably be going on my way, looks like I'm starting to be a problem.

Kealynn snapped out of her thoughts when Piper asked if she was okay. "Huh yea I'm fine, just thinking about something." _I'll take him along anyway and if the pack considers it a danger, I'll just take the blame...- She thought to herself as she stood up. "Okay you should come to the camp with me, there are pups there so you may not get a warm welcome. You know with how dangerous mothers are of their pups, but I'll back you up anyways." She turned facing the direction to the camp. "Please please don't try to kill him fellow pack mates..." She murmered under her breath. Then she turned grinning again, "Coming?"

Piper thought a long moment before moving, trying to decide if he should go with Kealynn and risk getting attacked, or...going on his way and possibly risk missing valuable information about his lost sibling. His brow knitted, he finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll follow you." Piper said, and with that trotted easily up beside the female, tail swaying slowly from side to side. The charred male had decided it was probably best to go with her, but suddenly a frightening thought wormed itself into his brain. What if this is a trap?
Since he grew up as a loner, Piper had always been a little distrusting of new wolves. However, since he also had a friendly, easy-going disposition he was able to ignore that annoying little voice in his head that told him that a creature was not to be trusted, whether it was true or not.
Piper shook his head slightly. No, you mustn't think that way about others. Remember, everyone is innocent until proven guilty. The black he-wolf told himself. The wolf smiled to himself randomly, imagining Amber scolding him. 'Are you stupid? Don't give your trust to anyone unless they've earned it.'
Yep, Amber let her mind do most of the talking, while Piper, as corny as it sounds, listened to his heart. Snapping himself into reality, the young loner smiled. "Lead the way miss...er..." Did she say what her name was and I missed it? "I didn't unh...catch the name?"

Kealynn stopped near the very spot where the wolves were. "Oh my name? It's Kealynn! Yup that's my name. Now be ready to enter okay?" She very slowly padded in carefully looking around at all the wolves making sure Piper was close by she showed no sign of surprise at Piper being right next to her and looked at the pack leader.

The sudden tugging on his ear caused Rave to snap out of his thoughts on where Kea was doing. His head was tilted to the side from the bit of power Sundasiy had and he directed his blue eyes to look at her. She was an interesting little pup, her reaction to him still baffled him however, her wanting to play with him. He watched her a little longer and he just couldn't help it but to smile.. Small but it was there.. He supposed he liked Sundaisy, even if she was an annoying pup. But he was still concerned about Kea.. and other things on his mind. When his mind began to fill, his smiled disappeared as quickly as it came and he stood up slowly, so Sundaisy could let go. He stared down at her for awhile and sighed and turned to the others. "I.. I'm going for a walk.. Tell Kea when she comes back." he said, actually using her name in his words for once. He turned from them and trotted off then, not waiting for questions to answer… He simply just didn't want to tell them why. He picked up his pace as he got farther from the den and until just a dark spot could be seen..
Soluc's attention was taken away from Raika for a second as one of the older wolves ran off suddenly. The dark-furred one with the blue eyes.. he started after the wolf before turning back to Raika but his curiosity was heightened, he looked at her wanting to know what was going on...
( This is my last post now, no more Rave. But don't worry once my computer starts working he'll be back.)

Anidaes' head quickly turned to the direction that Kea was coming from. She had seen her run off earlier and wasn't sure why until she caught the scent of a strange wolf nearby. She figured Kea had gone to take care of the wolf. Any other time, Ani would've welcomed a new wolf, but now she had pups and was more suspicious.
The scent of the new wolf was near Kea's scent, meaning the wolf was with Kea, and Kea was heading back this way toward the den....where her pups were....where the strange wolf would be in a few minutes, "What was she thinking!? thought Anidaes, as she began to panic.
She ran to where Kea and the wolf would be entering their home and stopped short of the two, with tail raised high, baring teeth, and snarling. She started on Kea first before questioning the new wolf. "KEA!" she barked, "HOW COULD YOU BRING A STRANGE WOLF INTO OUR HOME WHEN THE PUPS HAVE JUST BARELY BEEN OUT OF THE DEN!?" she demanded

Kea flinched as she saw the angry look Anidaes' face had. She layed low to the ground staring up at the older wolf. She scraped the ground with her paws for a moment and spoke after a long time. "Actually I knew it would be a foolish attempt, but this wolf will do no harm to the pups... Look I know it seems foolish, but he has nowhere to go and.... he's looking for his sister!" She looked around hoping the other wolves weren't maybe about to try and attack Piper or her for that matter. She knew this was a very dangerous thing to be risking. "I thought maybe you could help or anyone who might have seen another wolf pass by here!" Her voice had been calm at first, but now it was becoming more high pitched as she felt panic rise in her chest when the female wolf looked like she might tear both Piper and herself apart. She looked down at the ground knowing how stupid this idea was, but she would just have to wait and see what happened.

Anidaes snorted, "You should've been more cautious. You know nothing about this wolf," Ani lowered her voice, bit it was still a bit loud and filled with anger and a bit of panic. She looked over to the new wolf, "And who are you?" she asked, "And why are you in our territory?"

Kea stared at the ground, knowing Ani was right. She should have taken more precaution. Thank godness she seemed just a little bit more calm then before. Kealynn's ears lay down flat on her head.

Piper jumped back, startled, when Anidaes began roaring at Kealynn like a furious bear, his heart thudding against his chest. The black male bit the inside of his cheek, trying his hardest not to leap to Kea's defense. After all, Anidaes was the alpha here, and he was a lowly loner.
But seeing the look of hurt that crossed Kealynn's features made a small spark of anger touch his heart. Piper took a deep breath, forcing his temper down and lowered his head, ears and tail in a sign of submission. "With all due respect Mistress, Kealynn is not at completely at fault here."
Idiot, yours is coming. Piper suddenly realized, and no sooner did the thought register in his mind did the alphess turn to him. The ebony he-wolf braced himself, but was grateful, that Anidaes seemed calmer. "My dam called me Piper, Mistress, and I wandered into your territory by mistake."
"I must apologize for my idiocy." Piper yipped, choosing his words carefully and trying to seem as polite as possible without showing fear. Catching a glimpse of the pups, the charcoal brute gathered enough courage to smile lightly. "And I assure you I knew nothing of pups being here."

Kealynn layed crouched to the ground, waiting for the response of Anidaes. She felt a fear still in her chest. Fear rising once again. She wondered if Piper was most likely feeling any fear from the female as well.

After Piper spoke, Anidaes closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm down and gather her thoughts. Piper seemed honest and harmless enough. She had realized that she had judged quickly, but when it came to the safety of her pups, she could never be too careful. "Forgive me for my outburst," she finally said, "A mother must always be suspicious when it comes to the safety of her pups. Kea..." she said looking to the crouched wolf, "Please be more cautious. Next time it might not be a stray, wandering wolf." She looked back over at Piper, "You are free to wander our land, but if I feel that you are up to no good...I will not be so forgiving."
Raika, Roiku, and Kira tensed up as Ani went to scold Kea and to question the new wolf. They watched the alphess intently, and waited to see how the new wolf would answer when she began to question him. They finally un-tensed a little bit when Ani calmed down and when everything was resolved.

Yes, Piper was afraid. His heart thumped crazily in his chest, but he had been in this position a few times before, and had enough practice to know how to mask his terror. After all, he had been born a wanderer, and this wasn't the first time he had to pass through another wolves' territory.
"Of course." Piper said softly when Anidaes explained her reason for shouting, bowing his head respectfully. "Being a male, as well as never having any pups of my own, I can never fully understand what you mean," He paused. "But I have a pretty good idea."
Piper lowered his forequarters to the ground into a gentleman-like bow, still trying his best to show he truly, honestly meant no harm whatsoever. They're never going to fully trust you, you know. The male thought to himself. You'll always seem like a trespasser.
"Thank you Mistress, that's very kind of you." Piper said once told he could wander the land as he wished. That really is[/i] rather kind of her, considering the welcome she gave you.[/i] The ebony he-wolf thought in wry humor, trying hard not to smile.
But then Piper remembered his reason for traveling as often as he did. Amber! "But I don't think I'll stay very long at all." The charcoal-colored brute barked quietly, his golden gaze shifting to the sky for a moment. "I've never really been one for pack life."[/color]

Kealynn breathed a sigh of relief. She had the feeling Piper knew not to tread on Anidaes' tail by getting her worked up, so everything would be fine. Her ears perked up as he mentioned how he wasn't very fond of a pack life. Her tail flicked causally as she thought. "Oh yes I remember now! His sister!" She thought to herself. "But how will he ever find her.. the world is a big place... very very big. I mean maybe she wil pass by some day or something.. perhaps.." She stood up again, relxing the tensed up muscles in her body from when she had lated low to the ground.

Anidaes was still a bit cautious, but no where near as much as she was a few minutes ago. She turned to Piper, "You say you're looking for your sister? What does she look like? Perhaps one of us have seen her."

sayemad came to see what the fuss was about. he was larger than the new-comer speaking with anni and kea, but rarely did others feel thereatened. judging by the feminine paniked shouting he had heard, the black male was probably shook up. Besides which, however erratic Kea was, her insticts were sound and so it was with an overall attitude of unconcern that Say walked over to greet him.
The sun was high, and from the sounds of excitement and high pitched new voices, the pups were out. Time to greet the neighbor's newest. "come along" she said, beconing to her three little ones with her tail.
Lysalia stood stiff-leged as a new scent came to her. it was not wholly unfamiliar, she had caught a few whiffs from her mother, but not many and she hadn't the slightest what it was. she vasilated a moment, then ran to mother's side.
Kazia pranced after her mother, falling behind now and then to examine some new object, then rushing to catch back up and attack the waving, black-tipped tawny tail. she is wholly unphased by the canine cacophony ahead.
shortly after lysalia's retreat and Say's greeting, Ksa and her three kits, Jay, Kasalani, and Kazia, sauntered into the den area, adding layers to the existing chaotic camaraderie of pups and pack.
