Are the trees really this inviting?

[Justice]

Justice meandered along the stream he had come along, Justice wondered how the terrain could change so drastically is such a short time. I guess...I guess the forest..wasn't all...there was... Justice thought. Justice had been traveling for days in search of any wolf life, but he had yet to find any. Justice felt alone in this forest, and the sun was starting to set. Justice hated the dark, and Justice knew that soon, he would have to find a place to lay. Justice couldn't possibly be out after dark, otherwise, well, Justice just couldn't be out after dark.

Justice thought about the many places he had been, all in search of other wolves. Justice was beginning to think he was alone. After being in the forest with his family for so long, Justice had grown accustomed to the idea, that the pack and family were all that existed. Justice knew, however, that other wolves had to exist. Justice didn't know this for sure, but what else did he have to hold on too?

Justice peered over his shoulder to look at the flowing water next to him. Despite the fact that the stream was barely larger than Justice himself, his fear of water prevented him from getting in. Justice's love for water, on the other hand, prevented him from straying too far away. Justice didn't know what it was about the water that he liked, but he did, and Justice was using it, and only it, as his guide. Justice felt a slight breeze rush through his fur before deciding to run.


Justice sprinted as such a speed that his paws barely even hit the ground. Justice had always run faster tha than the wolves of his pack; he didn't know if that was because of his tendency to run from others, or his love for chasing after bunnies. Justice chose the latter. 

As Justice ran, he noticed that the sky was still ever darkening, yet Justice didn't stop, his speed ever increasing. Justice thinks of his brother, Legacy, and how he ran from him when he was exiled by his own father. Justice's mind wanted to float on Legacy more, it wanted to make Justice feel useless again, but tonight, Justice was going to keep running. That is, of course, unless something happened that would scare Justice, although the feat of scaring Justice was not in any was a feat, more of a commonground for being around Justice. 


Justice didn't ponder on any of these things as he ran, Justice just kept moving forward, unaware of the urge that was knocking at his sense. Something very clear, and very important was trying to get Justice`s attention, yet he didn't notice it at all. Justice was running full speed into the depths of another wolve's territory.



Walk, Talk,Think

[Sitca]

Her paws gently landed upon the earth, the same one that welcomed her into this world. Her snout raised to the air, something has disturbed her land, something that did not belong. Her ears scanned the areas, listening for the source of the intrusion. Small thumps upon the ground filled her ears. Sitca raised her snout trying to take in the scent of the stranger, The scent that she picked up was that of another wolf, one not of her pack. Sitca's ears fell upon her head, as a small growl bubbled up from her throat, she was not happy with this intruder. Her shoulders hunched as she took off in a full out sprint. Her tail swayed with anger as her eyes narrowed in the direction of the intruder. 'How dare someone , who is not apart of my pacck, come into my lands thinking they can go where ever they please.' She thought to her self as she continued to sprint across the land.

With each stride her paws left a good one inch indent in the earth below her. Her sprinting made a huge thud upon the earth, that also shook the grounds below her. Her head was low, back arched , ears pinned to her head, teeth bared and tail high.  Sitca soon saw the intruder in her sites, she growled some more and pushed off with her hind legs. Makeing herself sprint past the brute with ease and come to a skidding hult winfront of him. Her red eyes glared at him, teeth ready to strike if she needs to.  She let out a growl at the brute, fur bristled as she spoke in a hiss tone. "What the hell makes you think you can invade my pack lands like that. You better give em a good reason why i should not sink my fangs in to your flesh at this moment"

Sitca was not The type to mess with, she did not take to those who don't know, or care of knowing the rules of this world. Her tail flicked with anger She hoped for this brutes sake that he had a good reason, because if he did not she would not hesitate to teach him what happens to those who enter her lands like he did. She stood their waiting for that male to respond to her.

Walk,Talk,Think

[Justice]

Justice screeched to a halt when a wolf appeared in front of him."Eep!" Justice screamed as his body slid across the ground, right past the wolf. He must have looked very strange, Justice's running abilities were beyond those of any wolves he met, but he couldn't stopp for the world. Justice rose to his feet, warily, after a moment of laying still. 

Justice began to process what had happened. Justice looked at the much darker colored wolf that appeared before Justice. He processed her words; the wolf did not seem at all happy. Pack lands? Oh no, I caused her trouble..Justice cringed when he heard the wolf's threat. "Ummm...Ummmmm....I'm sorry....I did--I didn't know..." Justice must not have realized it before, but now, Justice realized that the scent of this place was different, much different than that of others. Justice hadn't used his sense of smell in so long, that it had become rusty, so now, Justice rarely notices the various scents.

"Please....Don't hurt....Me...I didn't realize...I'm so sorry.." Justice said, inwardly freaking. Justice stood still, incredibly tensed, incredibly phased. Why didn't I realize? Justice thought before kneading his paws on the ground, nervously, stopping his thoughts completely. Justice just stood there, hoping that this wolf didn't attack. The entire time, Justice's tail wagged and danced erratically, in complete contrast to Justice's frozen state; Justice's tail always seemed as if it had another personality, but of all times, now was not the greatest time. At the moment, Justice wanted nothing more than to run, but he supposed that, even if he could outrun this fae, she seemed like the type that wouldn't take too kindly to his exit without more explanation.

Walk Talk,Think

[Sitca]

Before the male could speak to her words, this strange brute came to a screeching halt, Literally. Sitca watched as this buffoon stumbled over his own paws, her eyes narrowed at his display. It was truly interesting to watch, but non the less this male did intrude in her lands. Her eyes did not leave the male, she watched as he quickly came to his paws. Her tail swayed as she watched him stumble upon his words, shuddering like a lost pup who just got in trouble. This male was something of a interest, at the same time a nuisance. Sitca barely had a chance to respond to his first statement before he stuttered on about more. She was not that thrilled and this was just pitiful, shaking at the site of a mistake.

She listened as the male spoke his next statement, she was calmer now, but still mad. She let out a sigh and looked at the male, her eyes landed upon his tail which seemed to dance around him despise his mood. Sitca shook this off and looked at the male even more, her red eyes met his violet ones. She spoke in a strong voice, but not as much of a hiss came out as it did before. "Listen to me shuddering pup." She spoke, even though she knew he was about her age. "You have crossed in to my lands, what your excuse is that on my concern. First off, that stuttering is not very becoming. It is weak, and anyone who has a heart of ice would just kill you on the spot. Frankly i know my reaction was a bit harsh. I see this as a mistake, and i hope it was as such. I am Sitca the Duchess or Alpha of the pack Amaranth. Who may you be." She spoke in a athoritive voice that seemed to suit her very well.

Walk,Talk,Think

[Justice]

Justice listned as the Sitca spoke. She's....right....Duchess? Oh, she's an alpha...oh my....Justice didn't mean to seem without honor, but Justice gave a chuckle like laugh when she spoke of the Alpha rank. Justice didn't want to seem disrespectful, so he shook his head as if he was denying himself the humor. Justice laughed becuase of the way his own father flauted his power, never even trying to be fair. Justice's thoughts towards Alpha's have shifted; along with his alleigence.

Justice began to answer Sitca's unasked yet, so expressed question. "Umm..I...I was here...because..I..I was exiled from my pack...by...and I was searching.. for other wolves..I didn't realize I had entered other..pack lands...I'm sorry..My sense of smell...has diminished....I couldn't tell.." Justice said, trying and failing at stuttering less.

"I'm really..sorry..I'm trying not to..It's just........Please don't kill me--"  Justice said, with a sort of puppish innocence.

"Well, Sitca....My..My name...is" Justice hadn't said his name in so long, that saying his own name was difficult and unfamiliar. "Justice." Justice said his name; it was like waking up on a cold winter morning, the urge to remain still is unbearable.

Justice's tail continued to wag uncontrolably, so Justice placed his paw on top of it. He stood upright and waited for a response, the rising sun, glimmered off of his silver streaks. Maybe...I'm not alone...

Walk Talk, Think

[Sitca]

Sitca was surely getting a bit uneasy around this male, not because that he was a threat, more of the fact that he wasn't a threat at all. This male seemed to show no sines that he had any strength in him, and to Sitca that was not appealing. She shook her head in dispare at the male, He spoke some more still with that stutter that he had since he started to speak. She said nothing as the male kept rambling on about how he was exiled from his pack, and looking for others, and stumbled upon her lands. Sitca understood all this, this situation had already passed and she saw it as a mistake. So what she could not understand is as to why this male kept apologizing to her. Sitca did not know his reasons behind that, so she just blew it off and continued to listen to this brute.

Her head tilted just a bit as the male once again begged her not to kill him. She was utterly confused with this male, she must have not made it clear that she forgave him for the intrusion and that she understood it was a mistake. Sitca sighed and took a seat upon her haunches eyes locked on the male, trying to get to know him. She waited for the brute to stop talking before she spoke her words. Her tail swayed gently as she looked him over, she decided to use her calm voice on this male. Sitca wondered if her tone of voice is what caused him to get so uneasy around her, so that is what she did she spoke in a calming tone.

"I have forgiven you for the intrusion of my lands. I understand that it was an accident so i don't hold you as a threat. As for the killing you thing, that is in the past now. I will not do such a thing to you, now that i know you are no threat to me or my pack. So nice to have to meet you Justice, i am terribly sorry our meeting started in such a manner as it has."

Walk,Talk,Think

[Justice]

Justice's heart lifted when Sitca began to speak of forgiveness. With a calmer tone too. Justice raised his head as she spoke. She...doesn't want to kill me..I suppose she's..different..

When Justice began to speak once again, he wondered if maybe she was faking him out; trying to play her own little game. Justice had experienced such tatctics many times before, so if it were the case, he wouldn't be surprised. Nonetheless, Justice speaks with gratitude rather than with suspicion, as his lighter side always wins.


"Thank you, Seetcah" Justice said, butchering her name out of nervousness. "Umm.. I have..uh..a question..Have you seen any wolf kind of..like me..only..orangie..ish? Like..my white..with orange instead of silver?" Justice said, motioning to his silver streaks on his sides with his tail.

As Justice awaited an answer, he thought of his brother. He does this quite often doesn't he. Justice sat, still tense, with thoughts of his brother ever tangible in his mind, yet, for some reason, Justice didn't want to grab them. Perhaps it made it seem like..Like Justice had to grab his thoughts of his family for his family to exist. Such thoughts saddened Justice, however, he knew that such thoughts were all that were plausible considering the circumstances. No..I suppose asking questions about a dead wolf won't help will it..





Walk, Talk , Think

[Sitca]

Looking at the brute Sitca took a seat upon the ground, her ears perked up as he chocked out her name. It was not that pleasent to her ears, he seemed to still be very nervous about her. Well she could not blame him, after all she did go all crazy on him when he entered her pack lands. Her head tilted a bit as he asked if she seen a wolf that looked like him, except with minor differences, Sitca could not help but think that this male was trying to divert her attention. She shrugged that thought off and stood up looking at the boy whom still seems a bit shaken up about their encounter.  Sitca looked in to his violet eyes and spoke in a calm voice. "I am terabbly sorry, but i have not seen such a wolf around here."

Her tail swayed gently as she stood their in-front of justice, this brute was surely something else. He seems to be very fragile, and has not yet figured out who he is in this world. Sitca shrugged and licked her paw, thinking of something to say, he did not small like any pack. Was he a loner in this world, maybe, jsut maybe he would be of use to her. He may be a bit nervous about things in this world, but everyone needs a home, a nice home. "Justice, i can't smell a pack scent on your pelt. Do you not belong to a pack yet?"She asked curiously. 

Walk,Talk,Think

[Justice]

Justice listens as the news he doesn't want to hear comes out of Sitca's mouth. The fact the Legacy hasn't been here doesn't truly mean much to Justice, because he knows that this world has many places for the orange wolf to go; he hopes that Legacy found a good place to live. However, it does sadden Justice's heart that this means that Justice most likely won't be seeing his brother for quite some time; he had hoped to find him here. Then Justice stops hoping.

Justice admits, deep down, that far too much time has passed without any word for Legacy to still be alive. Perhaps if there was a sign of some sort when Justice found his pack ruined and in shambles, perhaps if there was a sign when Justice searched his home forest for weeks, perhaps is there was ever a sign to begins with, Then, Justice would still hope, but now, the odds are moreso in Justice's favor than Legacy's.

Justice promises himself to not give up hope completely, but he also promises himself not to worry to much about his own brother, considering the fact that Justiec knows that he himself is alive, Legacy's being alive, however, is far less plausible. 

So, Justice begins to answer Sitca's last question, trying to blot out the previous pain that her first answer gave him.

"Umm..well..I used to..be a part of a a-a..pack..but I was..ex-il-ed..from it. Now..I've just been..searching for my brother..but..I don't think..I'll be able to...find him..So..no. I do not...belong to a pack.."
[Sorry I didn't use my table..I can't type it out long hand at the moment, I have to rewrite it because I lost the paper I had it on >_<]

[Sitca]

Sitca looked at the male whom still seemed a bit shaken up, she sighed and decided to use a different approach. Sitca walked closer to the male and sat in front of him. She listened to what he had to say about being apart of a pack, but no more, secretly sitca was hoping for that answer. She stood up and smiled at him, her tail swaying with well, she was not sure. It jsut felt like swaying so her tail did just that, her red eyes locked upon Justice and when she spoke it was not mean not harsh just the voice of an alpha. 

"So you don't belong to a pack? What would you say if i offered you an interview as to possibly becoming apart of my pack justice." 

This was it She hoped that he would take up her hint as to that she would be interested to see as to what position he would be great for in her pack. He seemed like the type to be very loyal, and devoted to the task at head. Sitca could only hope that he would accept that hint and answer with i would like to or something, but if he did not that would be ok as well. After all she would not force anyone in to her pack, she would not do that, it went by all what she believes in. Sitca stood their tail still swaying for no reason as she waited for his responce. 

Walk, Talk , Think

[Justice]

Hearing Sitca speak of possible acceptance, Justice's entire demeanor begins to change. While his body still shows signs of nervousness, it also shows intense signs of exitement. Justice practically can't contain himself.

"Of..Of course! I'd...I'd love to! Thank you so much Sitca! You are the greatest! Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you! Umm..Umm..where do I start? What do you want to know?"

Justice's tail is really wagging now, however, this time, it isn't merely moving sporatically as it had before. Now his tail is wagging to the beating Justice's heart; to the energy of Justice's soul. Justice looks at Sitca happily, his purple eyes holding a certain glow only held by true intrigue and exitement. 

Oh boy! Sitca says I might be able to join her pack! This is so fun!........Legacy..Legacy..If..only you were here...

For a moment, Justice's happiness fades, the thoughts of his brother creeping into his positiveness, however, Justice decides not to let his past memories and experiences mess with his being now, so he merely looks to Sitca and awaits an answer.

[Sitca]

Her eyes glanced at the boy, whom seemed ecstatic about what she said. Sitca looked at Justice, she could not think if his reaction was positive, or just that he was saying this due to the fact that he did not want to turn my offer down. Sitca sighed and stood up, she walked closer to the male and her red eyes focused upon him. Her tail swayed gently as the wind started to slightly blow her fur. She just stood their for about a minute looking at him, studying him, well after all she needed to know something, and the final result of the observation seemed to have brought her to a blank.

Sitca smiled at the boy and she spoke to him once more, this time in a calm assertive tone, but at the same time she is not trying to scare him. "Well from your excitement i can only assume you would love to join the pack. That is great, but i can't just let you in, i need to know what you can bring to the pack. What skills do you possess, how are you beneficial to the pack. Those type of things, take your time to answer, their is no rush." She said as she stood their sorta smiling at him sorta not.

Walk, Talk , Think

[Justice]

Justice looks at Sitca, and he almost doesn't hear a word she says. Right..what can I offer..hmm..what can I offer..I'm..I'm.. Justice gets lost in thought trying to think of what he could possibly offer a pack. After several moment of recollection Justice has come up with several ideas. He is unsure, however, if what he is about to say truly benefits anything at all..

"Well..I can..I..I have..I can run..faster than any wolf I've met..I can run..and..I..well..I'm really good with herbs and plants and stuff..like..this one time..Me and this bunny were frollicking through a meadow..and..and..it hurt itself and it was bleeding really badly..so..I found several herbs and..I fixed the bunny and we played together the next day and nothing was wrong..the bunny was white and pretty and.. oh right. One last thing..I was personally trained by my father to be a strategist.. my father was an Alpha, however, he is no longer with us.. Just says, finishing with a face much more somber than before.

Justice awaits an answer from Sitca while his tail continues to wag on in the wind, contrary to the nervousness that is still growing in the white wolf's heart.
