Fable: Fable glanced at the she-wolf again, then turned and ran toward Vladimir. Your right. she said as she reached his side. Her tone was apologetic. She didn't wanted to anger her knew 'friend'. He was the closest this to that word that she had had in a while. She didn't want to loose that now.
The small brown essa resumed their previous pace as they neared to boarder. The gray drake to her side. She always stayed a little behind him, to show his rank was higher. The wind rushed toward her from the mountains, carrying the scent of strange wolves, Flowing Mist wolves. One scent was stronger than the rest, Alaska, the alpha. The ivory brute was still out of sight, but they would soon reach him. The deep brown fea looked over at Vladimir to see if his face had changed. Nothing other that concern for the other pack could be seen though, nothing new.

Willow: Onyx tail swishing from side to side in defiance, eyes glowing from the light from the sky. She stopped her stride when a howl from the border of Flowing Mist rang through the trees, echoing to wolves near. Alaska, She thought, noticing his howl. His wolves would gather soon, and he would make himself visible. Something must be wrong with Flowing Mists...something forbidding perhaps. Had Blaze's Pack made it to them? Would he ever decide to attack them? She doubted it. She remembered looking through the border and spotting some wolves walking, too busy to notice. There were the two young Apprentices, and their mentors, a brown male, and a snowy white female. They would handle things, she was sure of it.

Alaska: Alaska had reached the boarder first. Shasta and Thorn had stayed behind. With them were the pups. If it was safe, they would all join the Alpha to hear what the others wanted. If not they would hide the pups and join Alaska in the fight.
The snowy brute scented others. Two. No wait three. Their was a third one a little ways from the other. He padded to the boarder and waited for them to approach. He spotted a muddy brown essa and an odd colored drake approach. The other that he had scented was still hidden to him, though it was a fea he was sure. What brings you to Flowing Mist, Vladimir? he asks. He had heard of the blind brute, though they had only spoken a time or two in passing. The others were new to him. And who might you be? he asked the muddy one.
I'm Fable. she replied. She stayed by Vladimir, but gave him a little space now that he had stopped the breakneck pace.

Vladimir's pace slowed as he reached Alaska. His sides heaved from his long run, but he carried himself with astounding grace and sureness towards Alaska, his ears flickered in the direction of the new Essa in acknowledgment. As he neared her he carefully felt out her aura, she carried no threatening air but she knew something they did not, something that could be rather useful to them. He shifted his head in her direction as he spoke My name is Vladimir he said bowing his head ever so slightly and this is Fable he said inclining his head in the direction he heard her breathing. You may come and join us if you wish, we will not harm you. I think the information you hold could be quite useful to us if you wish to share it he said his voice kind but firm. Turning back to Alaska he sat wrapping his tail delicately around his feet. His "gaze" shifted past Alaska to the wolves that hid in the shadows. There where four; Two of which were Thorn and Shasta, their auras were always the easiest to pick out, so delicate; A small smile darted quickly over his face but it was gone as quickly as it appeared. His attention shifted back to the the remaining wolves. Two pups, Sparrow and Hawk, their auras were easy to pick out as well. Always so lively. So that left Aiji unaccounted for, Vladimirs ears flattened momentarily in displeasure but he quickly pulled them forward once again. He shifted his attention back to Alaska So they took Aiji. he stated. When was she taken? And how can we help? has asked his head titling slightly as he silently observe Alaska aura. He did not bother asking why Alaska had not gone after her for he already new the answer. His face softened as Alaska s aura flickered in pain at the mention of Aijis name, and he spoke to comfort him She's a smart little one so I'm sure she's just fine, probably missing you, but fine. he paused before continuing Blaze doesn't make it a habit to kill or torture pups, instead he trains them, and soon they become part of his pack weather they like it or not. Vladimir paused and shifted slightly, unsure if he should continue, but finally he spoke He twists their minds and bullies them until they cower beneath him, he's always pushing them beyond their limits, making them hard and worn. The more they resists the harder he is on them. Some get use to it and become just as twisted as he. While others, though there are very few, still retain some humanity. Those are the few that try and make the pups time there as painless as possible, and those are the ones that we must seek. he paused letting his heavy words hang in the air. Then he turned to the new Essa Have I left anything out? he asked, inviting her to join them once again. [/size]

Alaska: Alaska grimaced at Vladimir's words, though he knew them to be true. About a fortnight ago. I've scented his members near the boarder, but they haven't crossed since, and I haven't spotted any. They must just watch from a distance, though I have heard one howl a few times. the elder snowy Alpha replied. He then turned to look at the new fea that had been hidden. He scented the air. Her scent was like 'theirs' she had been with Blaze, recently. Though the Alpha's eyes were guarded, he didn't show any other signs of disapproval. He would hear her out, like Vladimir said, some wanted to help.

Willow: Willow looked at the two leaders with sidelong glances. Her ear twitched as she listened to the conversation, and she stretched out a paw to lick it, and drew it over her ear. I recall seeing Screst from the pack. He and I have been good friends for a while now. She said to Alaska, dipping her head in respect to him. She knew of Blaze's rouges, and she was simply a bit of an acquaintance to them somehow. A bit friendly to each other, but not completely a friend. She had a plan sparking in her mind, and glanced at Thorn and Shasta. The white femme had turned her aqua lavender gaze on her, and Willow could tell she had the same plan.
Shasta: Shasta searched Willow's gaze, intelligence sparking in her gaze. Shasta flicked her tail, indicating that she'd be back in a little bit, and padded to Willow. The strange female gazed at her, expectance in her gaze, and a hint of friendliness. Yes? She inquired, a half smile on her face. Shasta wrapped her tail around her padders, and addressed Willow. I was thinking that maybe you could talk to Alaska about something. You and I both have the thought in our heads, and I can't proceed the thought into action without his acceptance and permission. She murmured, keeping her voice down so that only Willow could hear. Willow nodded her head. I was thinking I would talk to him too. She replied.

Valdimir was silent for a few moments, processing the information he was just received. His ears turned towards the new female as she spoke, Yes I'm well acquainted with Screst, he is good soul that was pulled in due some...ties Vladimir said calmly, though he hesitated on the last word. He knew Scrests business for joining Blazes ranks, for it was his business to know, but that was a matter that would remain private unless Screst choose to revealed it. As he rose Vladimirs ears turned catching the females eager whispering, a kind smile crossed his face as he guessed their plan. Taking a step in the direction he felt Alaska's aura he whispered in his ear It would do you well to listen to their plan he said his voice almost warning. Taking a step back he bowed his head in respect before turning in the direction of Fables breathing. She was waiting very patiently a few feet back Come. It is time to go, until the decision has been made we are not needed he said in a kind soothing tone. Leaning over he gave her a gentle nudge on the neck You think you can make it back? he asked in a worried tone. He could feel her aura wavering and she was still breathing hard from their wild run. Then suddenly he turned his massive head in the direction of Alaska's aura Remember, you know where to find us if you ever need anything. And... he paused for a moment a thoughtful look passing over his face we are always watching... and with that he turned back to Fable.[/size]

Alaska: Alaska listened to the wolves around him. As Willow spoke, his wise, chocolate orbs shifted to her, then to Shasta, and finally resting on Vladimir. He nodded at the leader's words. I will. he replied. He smiled at the small mud colored female at Vladimir's side. She dipped her head and murmured a soft, yes. The snowy elder could see that she was still weary from her run, but was strong willed, and would push herself to please those around her. Alaska looked at Vladimir as his last words reached his ears. The wind shifted when they were spoken, giving them the weight of more of an omen than just an ending to their meeting. We thank you, Vladimir, for your concern and alliance. he spoke as the two started the trip back to their lands.
Alaska then looked at Shasta and Willow. Please continue. I wish to hear this plan of yours. he said, his tine intrigued. He wanted to help his daughter, but they needed to wait till they had a plan, and a chance of victory, before he could risk harm to those around him. He wasn't willing to loose any more wolves, from his pack or not, if it could be stopped. This tyrant had to be put to an end.
