[glow=crimson,2,300]What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy?

If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?

“My dear I am quite odd, just not in color, if my color reflected my fractured mind I would be a sight to behold. Do not worry about the Anwe clan’s acceptance, they too are a bit off. Four adults yet they chose to serve me rather then take this land for their home. They remind me a bit of my own clan in a way, perhaps that is why I have welcomed them so. It hardly matters Misae will adore you and they shall threat you well in return.”

The fact his mood ha frighten the fae for a moment had not escaped him, his mood swings took a little getting use to. Once Summer was over he would not be quiet as moody and so less likely to upset or worry anyone around him. Nodding he turned form the female and threw his head back howling, a loud, long, summons for those who pledged their loyalty to him asking only he lead them well in return. He had been heir to the Jujika clan, leading was in his veins mixed with his blood. Summons given he lowered his head and smiled at Shikra before turning and leading her through the often thick underbrush to a place deeper inside her new home.

Steeping out of the shadows back into the open the Alpha Wraith took a deep breath, sweet grass, pine, a spring water made him sigh softly. This place was very nice, and larger then he had expected given most of what he had come across so far was thick forest or thinning one. Walking up to the small but pleasant sounding spring he lapped at it curiously before nodding, tasted just fine. Nothing human in it, always a good thing. Moving away so Shikra could drink freely if she wished he stretched with a content moan, today had been an eventful but profitable day that was for sure.

“It should not take them long to show, they were not that far away from us to begin with.”

[yahto]

Yahto was grateful for this opportunity, even though meeting Jujika had not come under the best circumstance. At least it's a meeting worth remember for a long time, he chuckled to himself as he walked along exploring the territory he now called home. After disciplining his pup the large black wolf had gone off by himself. It was a known fact that he was a hot head and he did not want to get to mean with his daughter. His heavy paws carried him through the land, scenting the breeze every now and again as he explored. Honestly he was happy to no longer be the leader of his family, it gave him a chance to finally relax from his duties as their leader. Besides he figured that the white wolf he now called Alpha probably could do just as good if not better than the he himself could. Stopping by a stream he lapped up some water quickly before moving onwards, however, his exploration was interrupted by the summoning cry of his leader. His ears twitched for a moment, before he responded with a howl of his own. The howl was a 'I'm coming' sort of cry, and without hesitation the dark fiend took off in the direction of the cry.

It did not take him very long to find the Alpha, along with a new female he had yet to meet. His eyes roamed over her slowly, taking in her beauty. Indeed he had never seen a she wolf with that coloration before, and indeed he was transfixed by her. Yahto shook his head and approached them, a small smile crossing his dark features.

“You have need of me Jujika?”

Yahto called him by his sire name, it sounded better to him then using his first name. Looking towards the female again he smiled, a more charming sort of smile. His tail wagged a bit as he tried to appear friendly and not intimidating which was no easy task for the large male.

[glow=crimson,2,300]The sun reclines
Eats my mind
Reminds me what to leave behind
Light eats night
And all I never said
Reminds me what to do before I’m…
[/glow]

Ear turned at a howl in response to his own, he assumed it was Yahto from the pitch but it hardly mattered which it was just then. It took no genius to know where one Anwe was another was likely close by, good fro protection. The pale wolf was use to taking care of himself, even before he had come here and formed this brand new pack. If he had been a leader for longer then two hours he would be amazed, talking with the Anwe had caused him to lose some track of time. What did time matter really anyway? When the prey came out it was time to hunt, until then there was nothing all that pressing to do. Head turned when the dark Yahto was the first to appear of the Anwe, as he assumed he would. At his question he shook his head with an amused smirk.

“Not at the moment no. Shikra this is Yahto, I should probably give him a rank hm?”

Chuckling at that he had not really done anything but assure the Anwe he was not annoyed with them, and left Misae’s discipline in their paws since she had not offended him. Glancing around he wondered where the pale Yue, darker Maka and Misae would appear from. He knew they would not keep him waiting long, depending on how far they had wondered.

“Pasha once the rest of your clan is here we can settle ranks, it hardly matters just this moment in time.”

[shikra]

Everything was new to me, something so different yet so fresh and new. It was wonderful to be honest, as Jujika-san lead me threw his pack lands, a forest. I watched him throw his skull up towards the skies and leave a song leave threw his throat. The scent of pine, water and grasses entered my mind, I stored them away. It was mixed so well, as well as so evenly. Neither over powering the other scents, but earlier those scents where not no where to be fount. It was like they where hidden by the mass of under brush that we dipped threw. I looked around the lands that laid out before me. Beauty. I couldn't help but sniff at the winds and grounds, no scents of human caught my attention. Maybe I was finally save? Tucked away behind hidden thick forests? I moved up towards the stream as my alpha moved away, my rosen quickly lapping at the cool liquids. I turned around as another left their own song ring forth.

But before soon enough another made himself known, I lowered down into a submissive pose, not knowing what to except. As this new male that Jujika announced as Yahto. I just glared at him for a moment, I honestly didn't care what he thought of my odd coloring or what not, as I padded swiftly towards a tree, and lowered down, licking my lips free of the earlier drink that I took. " Hello Yahto. I guess you never seen such one with my odd coloring? " Believe me I noticed how he looked me over, as if he couldn't take his eyes off me for a moment or so. I would lay there and await for the others that my alpha known would be coming shortly, I small chuff excaped my maw. " It's not polite to stare, and please roll your tongue back in, before you start drooling. It would not fit you so well Yahto. " I couldn't help it, I was a shy girl but very true of what I spoke. If I didn't like something I made it known, just like I did now.

[yue]

Yue frowned at the bare grown under thick cover curiously, he had never seen such thick braches before, they made this land feel old. Thick underbrush gave way to easily passed through sections making getting around easier if not a bit of a maze at the moment. Misae would have a lot of fun exploring once she was allowed to once more. Yukito Jujika was surprising understanding about the whole thing, from their trespassing to their attack. The fact he had not even hurt him was another thing to be pleasantly thankful for, he had never seen such a move before. With a hurt lower jaw he would be useless, broken jaw could easily spell his death. He had been confused by the Anwe’s refusal to take his land, their reasons seemed to amuse him but the conversation went well. Answers in paw the Alpha had left them to discipline Misae free of his interference, and that had been a noisy ordeal. Misae was not to go off alone until the family felt she had learned her lesson, he was not sure how long that would take. The dark female was tagging along with him for the moment since her father was clearly displeased and needed a moment alone.

“Your father will calm down but you are lucky our new Alpha was so forgiving or you and I might not be having this conversation right now.”

He wished he was joking, Yukito had at least two chances he knew of to have killed her, more then enough. A howl that had to be Yukito’s snapped his head up, it was a simple come to me call, Yahto answering soon after. Nodding to himself the white male turned towards the original howl’s origin’s deeper inside then he had trekked so far. Stepping out of the darkness and back into the light of late day he noted Yukito and Yahto with a new fae. Red fur stood out like blood on snow over her white undercoat, her face turned towards his brother so he could only guess at her eye color. Silver stare turned to Yukito blinking when his brother was teased. Normally kept composer gave way to a light chuckle as he approached the trio, Yahto needed teased now and then.

“She has a point brother. Hello miss I am Yue, and this is hid daughter Misae.”

Pale silver stare turned to the dark fae who had come up to his side staring at the new fae, she would not mater what her coloring was. Shaking his head he turned his attention back to Yukito and lowered his equally pale from as was required by formal laws. Yukito might be a bit incidental but he was still Alpha nad had not excused any of them from such greetings, Misae was more forgivable as a Yearling.

“I will assume she is the reason you called? The others should be here shortly, we simply closer as Yahto was.”

[misae]

Misae walked beside her uncle quite but still sniffing at everything, he had not been as loud as her father but his stern frown was enough. The moon pale male was a second father to her and that disapproving frown hurt as much as her father’s yelling. She knew she had done a bad thing, Yukito’s playful lesson aside, and that she was very lucky he had been so gentle about it. Ears perked at howls, the second one her father’s, she knew the I’m coming howl from family outings. Yue said not a word he just turned and headed deeper into the forest. Following without a word as well, she slinked around Yue when he stopped, blinked, then chuckled at her father’s teasing. Smiling at the light mood around her she turned her golden stare on the new fae and blinked. Red and white contrasted off each other, frame fit as she understood it, look friendly enough.

“Father, Alpha…miss.”

Walking up to Yukito she lowered her self but lapped his chin as well, she liked the pale male so far. He reminded a bit of her father and uncle, her uncle not just in looks, her family seemed to like him alright. Moving away from him she sat down between her father an uncle, she did not say anything else. She did not want to get into any more trouble

[yukito]

[glow=crimson,2,300]Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
[/glow]

Yukito found himself chuckling once again as Yahto was chided for staring, one advantage to losing the only fae he’d ever love is he had no interest in any others. He could appreciate her looks but they did nothing for him, pity since she reminded him of Recca a bit with her eye catching looks and expressive eyes. Sighing ever so softly he reminded himself Recca was dead and gone, they were all dead and gone only he remained. Opening his mouth to join in he turned his attention to the pale twin Yue, the one more like who he had been once. Those pale silver eyes gave the fae a detailed once over but his mouth remained closed as he did so. At his chiming in the Alpha snickered, so the pale wolf had a sense of humor after all, good.

“Now, now if I didn’t scare her off don’t you two go and do it hm? I would be ever so cross if I had to yell at you both like cubs. What would your mother say?”

Laughing at that thought he shook his head, Kami what was with him today? Dark stare turned to Yue as he submitted like a good boy, clearly the ore formal of the two. Misae came up to him lapping his chin, she had never been scare of him only for him, odd as that had been. Chuckling he tapped her forehead with his nose before turning back to the pair. He had mentioned ranks and it was something that would need addressed soon enough.

“Now since most of you are here I shall voice my musings of late. I allowed your clan to stay, unharmed for your trespassing and attacks, gracious I know. However I noted not too long ago I declined to rank anyone, an oversight solely on my part really. Since your clan has been so forthright with answering my ponders I shall pose another. What ranks do you feel you deserve, don’t be shy now. If I agree we shall try them out, savvy?”

[shikra]

I rose up slowly, as the one male which was know known as Yahto, his eyes caught my attention only for a minute. As I heard a few limbs of fallen trees crunch under another coming towards the gathering. I listened to him speak, this one male that matched Jujika so well. Except those eyes where different, I've noticed that Jujika had red brown darkened eyes while Yue had silvery pigmented visionaires. My filth appendage danced down behind me, as I noticed that of Yahto still watching me, I padded towards the waters once again, flicking my tail as I moved past him. " There, now you got a reason to stare at me. " I noticed that of a yearling coming up towards the gathering, this little female was covered with their scents. She had beautiful gold eyes and a small moon upon her left ear. She was a small beauty that was for sure. As she spoke out, calling me miss. I smiled towards her.

" Hello there little Misae. You may call me Shikra. " I smiled, my maw twisting at the corners. She looked just like the one whom was known as Yahto. They all were oppisate pigments, but here I stood like blood in the middle. I lowered my muzzle towards the water and drank forth, before I moved up and chuckled at the youth with Jujika, licking and nipping at his chops. " Seems like you got a fan there Jujika-san. " I moved back to where I made my bed and lowered down. Licking the waters from my muzzle once more. My emerald eyes watching the four of them. Amusement lightening my eyes into a softer jade hue. All their scents were now stored inside my mind, marking them with their names as well.

[yahto]

Yahto felt a soft bubble of laughter explode from his lips as he heard the words that came tumbling out of the new female's mouth. Indeed it was rather rude to be caught staring but he couldn't really help it. It wasn't meant to be taken in a rude way, he was just admiring her beauty. Rolling his eyes away from the female wolf he glanced at Yukito as both he and his twin chided him on being rude. Laughing again he shook his head silently, before glancing back at the new girl.


"I didn't mean to be rude Shirka, I've just never seen another wolf with your colors before, it shocked my senses. I'm not usually rude, and I hope you accept my apology."


He didn't say sorry exactly, but he was apologizing in his own round about way. Gold eyes glanced at his daughter as she greeted the snow white alpha before returning to his side. Yahto was not really mad at her anymore, and showed this by nudging her cheek with his muzzle, before lightly kissing her cheek in a 'lets not dwell on the past' sort of way. The group was waiting on his mom and Z, but it seemed that Yukito was interested in starting the meeting anyway. Hearing his words Yahto's ears twitched a bit, rank? He honestly hadn't given it very much thought. Until now.


"It may seem pompous of me, but I'd like to have the beta position within your pack Jujika. I've been a leader since I was a almost two years old and my family is not worse for wear as you can clearly see. That it would be good to have someone like me to be able to back you up should you ever need it.."


He finished his statement and awaited a response.

[maka]

The older fae had been exploring the terra by her lonesome, it was healthy to get some away time from her pups. Maka moved swiftly through the trees, a grin on her face as she loped along. Sure she may be five years old but that was not very old for a wolf, there was still plenty of spirit in her flesh. Leaping over a log the dark hued femme slowed to a walk. She was getting thirsty and decided to find herself a nice stream or pool to drink out of. It did not take very long to find a suitable water source and she quickly drank her fill. The cry of the Alpha reached her auds, as well as the response from her son. Licking her lips slowly the female turned towards the sound without much hesitation. Indeed it would take some getting used to, being in a pack again. Maka had a bag experience with her own birth pack and had removed herself from them for as long as she could. Now she would trust her son's to do right by her and to not live with a tyrant. Yukito did not seem bad, a bit off, but not bad.

As she approached the clearing, she smelled the scent of a new female, good. The pack now had more than just her family in it. Slowly she approached, her eyes roaming over her clan making sure all we're accounted for before she approached Yukito, she nudged the under side of his jaw. A simple sign of submission, her tail wagging furiously as she did so. Maka then joined her sons and granddaughter, just as they began talking about rank. She thought that Yahto would be a good choice for beta, he was brave and strong.

Rank. What would she be good at.. honestly she didn't even know where to place herself. So she wouldn't say anything to the Alpha, perhaps he would think of something on his own. Maka turned her kind eyes towards the new female, taking in her youthful beauty.

"Hello there, I am Maka."

She told her with a gentle smile, hoping to become friends with the new girl.

[yukito]

[glow=crimson,2,300]I am the voice of the past that will always be
Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields
I am the voice of the future, bring me your peace
Bring me your peace, and my wounds, they will heal
[/glow]

Dark stare turned to Yahto, his reasoning for a high rank perfectly valid and honest without boating, he cared little for boasting. The Anwe clan were clearly well taken care of, not nasty scars, crippling injuries, or drooling madness to be seen. The dark male certainly looked the part of a Beta, his threatening nature was more subtle then Yahto’s clearer power. Keeping wolves guessing and unnerved worked just as well as looming over them, and was more fun as well. Smirking the Alpha Wraith did not care to give the pretense of deep thought.

“Perhaps it does but I much prefer candor over tact, if I wanted you to tell me what you thought I wanted to hear I’d go talk to a love sick fool. You Yahto Anwe shall be Beta until you greatly displease me, something I do not foresee ever happening.”

The dark male had pleasantly surprised him but had yet to displease him, defending his child was only to be expected. Turning to Yue he was not surprised he had not spoken up, Yahto had taken his chances doing so the pale twin was more cautious. Looking him over he thought for a moment about what rank his looks alone warranted. Kizuato had taught his son how to spot fighters, hunters, weaklings, all by sight before his death. While knowing what the body could do was only part of a wolf’s ability it was a good place to start, and he had only a little personal information to go on. Yue had attacked him, he was fast, good instincts, and had held perfectly still once his lower jaw had been caught. Yahto was more the protector, Yue more the thinker, nothing wrong with that combination. Turning to Maka he gave the older wolf a grin, he had never known his mother and the idea of one had always appealed to him. She too did not speak up but he had an idea for her already. Shikra had not said anything but not everyone wanted rank, if she wanted something he was sure she would speak up.

“Yue Anwe you seem like a thinker to me so I shall give you a chance to prove yourself as my Epsilon, I have a feeling you will not fail me either. Maka Anwe you are clearly skilled in training cubs, if your own children are any indication, you shall hold the rank of Delta for as long as wish. Shikra you are Sigma unless you wish to once another rank you would prefer proving you deserve?”

[shikra]

I chuckled softly in response to Yahto's words. As I sat there silently for only a few split seconds before I spoke out. " I do appologize Yahto. I am just not use to one keeping their eyes upon me the whole time that they talk to me. I am very strange looking with the pigments, so I believe I should get use to it all? " My words where gentle enough, and harmless sounding. After all we were all in the same pack correct? But it didn't mean that I had to trust them as quickly as I did with Jujika. No they would gain respect and trust from me. I didn't know their weakness's or anything like that yet. ' I believe you all will do you're ranks with honour. But me, I think I should stay as sigma until stated or proved other wise. Ranking is only a title given anyway, not fully earned. So I should earn mine, and prove to Jujika that when I do gain rank, he knows I will do my jobs titled with the rank well. ' A smile slipped across my maw as I was trapted within deep thought.

I didn't have to be a hard ass at all, just to prove my points to the others in the pack. I didn't know why I always was like that. As the sound of another approached us. She stated herself as Maka, a slender inky coal female with dark undertones and dim golden eyes. She was just like the yearling. And I admired that. I nodded my dial softly to her in greeting. " Hello Maka, as you know know I am Shikra. " Hopefully all the names were done know. I stored her looks and own scent deep within my mind with the others. Then Yukito spoke out. ' I wonder what would become of Yahto should he displease Jujiko. That's if he ever does. ' I stood there and shook the thoughts from my mind. As the Alpha gave out ranks, I smiled towards the alpha. " Any rank that you see fit for me as we go on this wonderful journey as a pack will be fine. I will prove my worth in time. Today has been a little to hecktic. Meeting and talking with everyone else. So yes Jujika-san Sigma will be fine. " A smile and nod was given.
