Crow had listened to Evander with as much respect as he could muster. The story, who was who and how it happened, though it all seemed like a blur. His head fell at the news of Jaded being gone as well, their single pup. Damean would have been so proud to see his son. And that son would have grown up to be a true image of his parents. He had been excited himself to see the child. Now he was separated by a border. Not much to fear, considering they were allies and all, and he would ponder the matter later, but... The large bru's words caught his ears. Alpha... Plotted... No... This whole time he had been sitting in the presence of a murderer. The one who had taken the last of what he could have maybe called family... He was inches away, and the white hessian had fallen into his trap like a fool. "You," he inhaled his snarl, creating the illusion of a thousand fierce demons crying from his throat, before letting it out twice as loud as he responded, "Will never be my king."

The hairs on the back of his neck stood up. They had him surrounded. He spun in a circle. Deadly, one whom he hadn't met yet... Those eyes caught his before he snapped his gaze at the two he really cared about. "The thieving bitch and the brat prince have returned. How lovely," he snapped, masking his fear. "Your faces don't look much better since last I saw you. Didn't get enough of me running you out? Or have you just become accustomed to the pleasures of Evander ramming you from behind?" He licked his lips and spat at their feet. "Your intimidation wont work. Numbers don't scare me." He braced himself for any possible onslaught. The bird stood firmly at his side and cawed louder and louder, as though it actually thought it could make them leave. He would have loved to try and take them on his own, but now would have been a good time for someone to show up.

He sniffed the air as he ran back into the danger zone. More? There were more! He quickly hurried, an older scent was fresh again and he followed the trail coming behind a group of four wolves, Evander was in the front. Traitor...he had no name now... Landen came up behind them but they were consumed into something else a white wolf. This wasn't Blade or Petra, he had seen them when Damean's death was announced. He stood there, looking at them, then looking at Crow. He had to act, and act fast, a nasty snarl erupted from his maw and he watched as Evander held himself just a little bit higher. "Don't think so highly of yourself fool" his words were filled with hate and he stepped around the group quickly feeting Legend breath down his neck as he came round and stood near the white wolf.

Evander's eyes widened when he saw Landen. So he left the wench to come here? Oh good. "Well well. Shall we kill you too then?" But his brother's look was enough of a challenge and Evander growled and Legend stepped forward. Deadly snapped at nothing in the air and came inches closer. "I haven't come to get killed you fool, do you think I want that? You're an idiot. I came to tell you that this...this wont last long, enjoy your power while you can, and then I also came to get the rest of the sane wolves who'd follow someone else other then a brother killer." He growled when Evander did, raising himself higher then him, the challenge was set, the war was started and the two siblings would die killing eachother if it came to that...

She was perched watching everything with intense interest. Her winged companion sat perched above her. Emerald eyes blazed and how she yearned to leap in and help those midnights tear Damean apart. She never really had anything against the bru but he was turning the packs against Muerta which put a wrinkle in her plan. She could not have all these wolves going after Muerta, it was not for Akira's sake she worried though. She wondered when that old hag would die as well...Her silver form twitched at the thought of rushing into the battle. Then it was over, her mind was racing. It was time to change plans, the time was coming for her to move. While power struggles were the highest, were everyone was looking elsewhere and not at the shadow behind their back...Akira...she snarled to herself.

She stayed where she was hidden from those who would spy on her until at last Evander came and the other traitors with him. Her spine tingled, she had known there was something off about that hessian and she loved it. Crow came back and she noted the brujo with interest. She liked the bru well enough though he had not been present for some time. For that reason she descended into the midst of wolves meeting Evanders eye. She had not once spoken to him, didn't have the time or the inclination. "Eris my lord." She stated simply and looked at Crow. "I think you should join your companions in Midnight, Crow." Tassle flicked and she glanced at his namesake. After all he was a fellow wolf that took companionship with winged creatures. "It would be a sore sight on my eyes if these...gentlemen were to spill your blood on these grounds." She was giving him an out and she wished he took it. Strange, she normally didn't care enough to intervene for anything.

Looking at Evander she smiled, o he was going to help her. Help her achieve what was rightfully hers by blood.

((May I have a quick update on what occurred? Something tells me I should post Balde eventually XD))

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Sat Jul 24, 2010 12:06 am

Bloodeye meandered back from her mission, though her pace quickened as she got deeper into the lands; tension was in the air, and she was curious now to see what else was happening. The first thing she saw when she returned was a group of wolves surrounding Crow; she did not know him well, but she wondered why he'd been cornered. She glanced from wolf to wolf, narrowing her eyes. She knew they all had some part in what had happened. She cared not for the deaths, the murder. But she wanted to know every detail - that was a trait in her mind, she needed to know everything, she needed to stay on top of things. She had always been that way. Trotting unobtrusively nearby, she spotted Zai not too far off and smirked. She passed by him by a few feet, but made sure that her tassel gently caressed his shoulder. It was fun to flirt, and she wanted his attention.

She settled down by herself and watched as a wolf she'd seen briefly in Midnight Meadows came and challenged Evander, the new Alpha. She was surprised by his bravado, for it was clear that most of the wolves here now were with Evander, and they were not afraid to shed blood and steal life. Bloodeye chose not to take part in the action, to let things play out how they should. Power was great, delicious even, but she knew she could not have it here. She had no following, while clearly this Evander did. She would simply side with whomever held the most power, whomever remained the strongest. If that meant turning on wolves she knew, then so be it. She had hated traitors for so long now.. but she'd been so damaged by them. Maybe they were justified in how they acted, maybe she would be justified in her future actions. She shrugged at her thoughts and continued to watch, keeping her peripheral vision upon Zai, wondering if he was still a willing player of their 'game'.

----------------------

Petra stayed close to Blade, watching as Damean's loyal followers left with the young pup. She looked to Blade, wondering what they would do now. Was it necessary for the whole pack to go? She knew it wasn't, so they would remain here. She was glad when she saw Crow's form come upon the scene, approaching the wolf that would take over leadership and guide them in this hard time. But suddenly wolves began appearing out of the shadows, their malicious energies hanging heavy on the air, murderous intention in their every step. Damean's murderer was amongst them. Petra's hackles rose once more, and she saw Legend come with Depression. What was happening? Why were they surrounding Crow with such hungry stares and deadly jowls? She saw Eris come forward, giving Crow an opening to escape, but Petra couldn't understand why this was happening. "Blade, what's going on?" she murmured.

The another wolf appeared, but he was not sided with Evander, and she was thankful. It seemed that most of the wolves here were, and... Evander had sent all of Damean's followers away! He must have done it on purpose. To claim power while they were gone, to manipulate everything while the others were absent, so there would be no resistance. Only his followers, the traitors, were left now. And if they looked upon Crow with such eagerness for blood, how would they look at her and Blade? She shuddered, pressing against her love, her tail down. They could not leave their packmate until he was safe, but it was clear they could not stay long. "W-we should go," she stammered, glancing at him with fear in her leafy green eyes. She looked back to the scene, hoping that Crow would take his chance to go, and they could all depart. Somehow this felt like a dream, like it couldn't be happening, but it was oh so real. She shook her head in despair at the thought of for the first time leaving her birthlands in an unwelcome, banished sort of manner.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Sat Jul 24, 2010 3:49 pm

The alabaster hessian was suddenly caught off guard by the emergence of another, an enemy to Evander too, it seemed. And Eris was there as well, inside the circle. She wanted him to run? He had never backed down from a fight in his life... not even when he was outnumbered like this. And yet, as he noticed Petra suggesting to Blade that they leave, noticed that even the strongest of Akiko and Rawbones had disappeared, he soon realized that he would be the only idiot to stay and have his blood spilled on the ground. A noble cause to have it spilled for someone he had loved as a king, but unwise. And he knew to run from here would be far from cowardice, and more of his last chance. It began to form in his mind that a sort of twist to that whole 'three strikes, you're out rule' was coming into play. First Shelly. Then Damean. He had one chance left to care for someone before he lost them. He would flee to Midnight Meadows and watch little Damean grow, tell him about his father, guard him as if they were blood.

As much as he wanted to help Landen, flinching as the war between the two began, Crow knew this had to be fate, and refrained from joining in. It disturbed him to hear Eris speak of Evander in such tones, though as of now he owed her his life. "Thank you, Eris. When this is over," he said when, confident in his words that this insane trial would someday end, "I may return." He passed a quick nuzzle to her jaw, unsure if it was in thanks, or friendship or... anything, and ducked through the space he had beside her to escape and took off for Midnight Meadows, his last chance for survival now.

His position granted him the free show, an audience in the dark, which was fine by him. Fleeting wolves left his vision, which turned to a new arrival. He recalled the bruja, and his blasted bird. An amused smirk came over the dark joker, as he watched the scene unfold. Oceans flicked over Evander, admitting to a loyal wolf of Damean, that he had planned the king’s demise. It was a curious decision, but he supposed it would’ve got out eventually, why not from the main source? He watched as wolves loyal to Evander showed up, surrounding Crow, familiar wolves to Zaiaku. He recognized Deadly, but neither of the other two. A fight was almost inevitable, hostilities darted back a forth, and Evander was just asking for blood. Though he gave Crow minimal respect for not fleeing because of the numbers, Zai was unsure if he’d be the fifth to join the circle. The joker was content at being the audience, and his loyalties were still to himself. Still doing whatever it meant to survive, even if it meant taking orders from another.

Zaiaku blinked in recognition of the first fem to show herself, and he smirked a bit as she warned Crow off. Another player or another wolf simply loyal to herself? He had only briefly seen her, and knew nothing of her, but she had been among Damean’s group when he arrived. Loyalties were everywhere, and tension was high, Zaiaku wasn’t going to be surprised if every wolf around had their own ideas of who should be in power. Oceans blinked as a familiar sweet scent entered his flared nares, along with the touch of a familiar body. A smirk danced across his dark maw, as his gaze lifted from the group to Bloodeye. So easily distracted, it amused him greatly. Though it didn’t seem like much was going to happen, and he wasn’t certain if he would join if anything did. Auds flicked to the group, hearing Crow’s parting words, ignoring the wolf to look over Bloodeye’s frame with a playful smirk.

Well this sure as hell wasn't Tirisfal... Whatever happened to that whole getting away from your past, Epica? The bru passed nervously through the others, trying to follow his love's scent. Surely she hadn't forgotten him on this little mission. The big one, there, Evander, Casanova avoided him like the plague. He wanted nothing to do with these wolves, just to get Epica and get out. Sure he was dark, but they were darker. Something he wasn't so sure he could handle just yet. Perhaps if things didn't seem so unsettled... He tracked her, having lost her in the chaos and blood, trying to pick her scent out of all the others crossing back and forth over it. 'I was so sure she said Tirisfal... What the hell are we doing here?' He snorted to himself and looked up again, trying to find that white pelt of hers. He had seen two others, but one had been a bru, the other too small, both fleeing the scene. They weren't her. He figured this would take forever, and sat back on his haunches, away from the others completely. If she really wanted him, she'd notice his scent here. And he'd wait for her. It wasn't like he had anything else to do around here.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Mon Jul 26, 2010 1:45 am

Wolves were coming in and out, but he hadn't seen crow. Despite the other's very first impression, Blade was sure he, too, would still follow Damean. Still, his desire to keep his love away from harm was greater than making sure a capable warrior like Crow was alright. Carefully, though, he watched the exchange between the wolves, noticing they were a decent distance away in case they had to pull back. Then Crow appeared, and to his relief, left, having declared to never acknowledge Evander as their king. Nodding, he muttered to Petra, "This would be a good time to leave... Run at full speed. I'll be behind." His eyes were locked with hers, letting her know he was serious about following her. Blade had no intention of making Petra think she had to slow down to make sure he was still following.

A cold glance was casted in Evander and his group's direction, just able to keep his blunt defiance from showing. He held his ground until he knew Petra was running. He was sure no one would deliberately block their path, as all of Evander's supporters seemed to be in one place. Although things could still end up a mess unless they traveled to Cinder's home immediately.

She had instantly when the blood was shed. Her temples hurt from thinking about how she would run out of here... And what if he... She had taken this small detour to see damean. Her sisters bad name made her feel so guilty and she had just been about to walk out when the disaster happened... She hadn't stopped it. A set of paws tred by then more and she tried to cover up more... It was a familiar scent that caught her attention making her come stand from her spot. Casanova! She almost lurched forward but nasty growls came from other wolves and she only whispered trying to catch his eye...

When the out was given to the white wolf she took her chance and came slowly from the trees. She could feel eyes on her and laughter... These wolves laughed at them all. "I'm sorry..." she whispered when her body made it close enough to him. "I think we should do as the others did and split but I don't want to leave him... Oh I feel so stupid!!!" she'd have to explain to him later why but not now. Right now she wanted to leave. "Landen come on... I'm sure exodus wouldn't want you dead" her words shook standing there alone...

Evander watched as the white wolf and the rest of jabbar fled from his lands. Pity really his numbers were low. All except those by him
now. "shame really... I could use those as slaves they seemed easily broken specially that female who just left but she could do also..." his sights turned to Epica and she made an appaled looking face. Legend and deadly steppes up first. Depression stayed behind... "it's not a bad life you know..." her words were dry and scripted. Landen looked at evander is diacust an growled when the other two stepped up. "we all take our leaving now..." his words were firm and he felt evander smile at him... Landen wad backed up now with the other two and his hushed word of run left himself to them. They all had to run and run fast!!!

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Mon Jul 26, 2010 5:17 pm

The bru caught sight of Epica as she came before the other wolves and had half a mind to show them all a thing or two about laughing at anyone. The moment she was close enough he surrounded her with his brown pelt and nuzzled her cheek. He was so glad to see her, and even more so to see her alive in this mess. She seemed so distracted... who didn't she want to leave? He figured it was probably the only other wolf looking to take on that big son of a bitch and his crew. He kept listening. She wanted to run. They had to run, didn't they? It hurt his heart though, knowing she didn't want this Landen left behind. Legend and Deadly came forward, looking hungry. What did they think she was, food? The fur of Casanova's spine rose, and he moved in front of her quickly. "You have no business with her," he growled between his teeth. He wanted to tear out Evander's eyes for even thinking he could look at her.

Landen gave his cue, urging them to leave. He didn't know what direction they would go, but managing to get beside her and still guard her, he urged Epica in the direction the other wolves had gone. "Come on, let's go. Your friend will be fine. We have to get out of here." He whispered gently in her ear. She needed to calm herself just a bit. She couldn't run like prey. It would just make them all the easier to catch. He wanted nothing more than to dash ahead and escape, but he wouldn't leave until she was safe first.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jul 28, 2010 11:41 am

Epica felt Casanova bend everything he was around her even if it was just a form of him standing infront of her. She felt a heat run through her and he watched his body change as he went from protection to love just from talking to them then her. Though she nodded when he said to part it was landen's form backin up that reminded her if damean and her heart slightly broke a little... His pack... His mind it was all wrong... Everything was wrong! She wanted to yell out but a loud snap caught her attention and she split from the scene. She did as Casanova said and didn't run like prey but ran like she needed to get out. She only turned once to see the pleading glance of the shifty midnight to their new king who nodded and the odd looking one was off in another direction... But where! She paniced and felt herself slowing down when a voice caught her and told her to keep running. She didn't know if it was her love orgod himself but she ran suddenly slowing though to make sure casanova was with her but never stopping...

Ooc:|| where do they go! Tiristfal? Or you know I'm thinking Hamara...? Or even midnight for a few nights then we can move them again maybe to black pearl.?

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Fri Jul 30, 2010 6:35 pm

Harmawganis
Mahogany mitts hitting the ground softly as the feeling of pure evil seeped threw him. Each second in Jabbar sent chills threw him. He returned for his brother. He stalked threw the shadows going unseen till he found his brother with a new fea right on the border. He let a small bark out to get the brutes attention. "Brother ... where have u been? matters that need tending to have been brought up." The massive brute looked at Sin with his white blue orbs.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Mon Aug 02, 2010 10:24 pm

Evander watched as the other wolves left. Damean's wolves were gone and he survyed the rest of 'his pack' "Oh lovely" he smirked and stretched himself out. "Was that not interesting?" he looked to Zai and shrugged. "Now, a council. Zai, become my right hand man shall you? You and Deadly, you two make quite the interesting pair I must say for myself, so nasty when need be...what are we going to do. Would you like to attempt a little game? Since Muerta is a rival pack with us now... she has yet to show her pretty white wench face I say we take that which is dear to her. Wanna get a pup?" he smirked and looked at Bloodeye. "You can help. Bring a whelp here, something, anything. Pup or a prized item of hers...but be spies about it. I know you can mask your scents, I know you can act like you have no idea who I am, where you are, act as if things were not what they seems... Wanna go, or shall I send someone else?" Evander watched them with question and he could feel Legend staring at the back of his head in wonder...

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Tue Aug 03, 2010 2:20 am

The land was ripe with revolution. The way that woman had prepared her words so thoughtfully oly to spit them carelessly in his face. She seemed the silent type. Perhaps it was best to remain so. So Sephiroth's little gang was a fluke. They were in it for something else entirely. They wanted change? Fine. But they were too... hopeful. Too driven for the wrong reasons. There needn't be reasons at all, little greenhorns. Take it because you can. Not because you "have to". Bah, pathetic. He would be lucky to set a toe in here without getting ripped to shreds by the Midnights that lurked under Evander's sick rule. Oh, it wasn't like he didn't believe dear Sephy couldn't take a couple of them... but the sheer numbers and weight of the lurking psychosis was far from defeatable. It wasn't going to happen any time soon. And they burned him just enough back there that he didn't feel like helping anymore. Instead of going to Jabbar to cause trouble, now was the best time to go and help Evander raise hell.

The deadly form stalked through the meeting ground, leaving no sign of existence behind. He waltzed in as though it didn't matter, no victim to circumstance or consequence. It wasn't like they'd kill him. No, it wasn't scary enough here yet. One more piece had been missing. And now it had arrived. Filthy thorns pricked at the mentioning of an abduction. Oh, he loved this man already. Madness on a whim. A grin spread across his features, pushing back the scars and elongating the smile, causing it to appear more cheshire than friendly. He approached slightly hunched, as usual, giving him that sort of rabid, degraded sort of look. His eye caught Legend on the way, whereupon he gave him the up-down overview with his eyes, and snickered privately before returning to his previously scheduled interest. Joker entered the conversation, licking at his permanent blood stain. "Love what you've done with the place, Evander," he quipped, looking sardonically about at the foliage, "If you're looking to expand on that offer you just posed, you've got one more paw in the game right here." His gaunt frame frozen, the ghastly eyes watched for a reaction, patient and calculating.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Tue Aug 03, 2010 1:01 pm

The brute turned his head to catch the falling voice and approaching figure of a stranger. What he'd done and a name to go with it. So it was working... And he was working his name everywhere... "well well." he turned his frame to look at the strange wolf and gave him a wide grin in return. "so so eager to help with the destruction of this shit hole." he smirked and turned towards legend and depression. "go find damean. Legend you might be killed but if not then all the more to you." he smirked and turned back to the wolf. "now you know my name if I am to know yours that's up to you. Personally it's the fight to the finish here. If you fall you fall no one can mourn over someone who couldn't hold his own. Want to join this fun chaos go grap her pup. Have some fun too. This is all about us having a good time while everyone else suffers. " evander turned back to zai and bloodeye. "never mind he seems fit enough to do it. Eris. Now tell me where you fit into my puzzle here please. Everyone else ha stated so with actions. You saved those who oppose... I figure you have hidden motives but to what that's yours to know. Me... I want akira dead... Do you agree? She's to much a brat for me." he smirked as legend nodde his head and depression and himself headed off towards midnight.

Pads moved swiftly, kicking up dirt. Now that he was back on home turf, there was no need for quite so much caution. If they decided to cross the line and follow him, they'd know where to find him anyway. The large, deadly, untrimmed claws scoured the dirt, providing his traction as they came to a halt before the newly crowned king. From behind the young girl's neck showed a smile so sinister it would make the devil himself shudder in disgust. He spat the child on the ground, letting her land how she would. Probably her rump, though were she anything like Queen Mommy, she would hit the dirt on all fours. He didn't pay attention to her actions, only stepping heavily on her tail to prevent an immediate escape. He would have liked to just pin her neck, but he wasn't sure how far Evander wanted to take this.

"Done. You know, you made it sound like it would be some complicated task. Akira never even knew I was there. Handy little defect these non-functioning scent glands are." He looked with his falsely crazed eyes between Evander and the ground. "I suppose you could have called that... fun. If you ever decide to hatch your little attack on Muerta, let me set it ablaze. Then we'll be talking fun." He had to wonder if the Alpha thought this was a free little pony trick. It would be all too pleasant to cut him off at every angle if he tried to get off that easy. A task like this? No good deed should go unnoticed, and this was no exception. A pink tongue slipped lazily over his chops, watching and waiting. This had gone too fast. No time to savor any little emotions or reactions, only excape. High-tailing it out with a prize. But then again, he'd do whatever he had to to eat. "And so you don't forget, call me Joker. You want the job done right, it's the only name you'll remember," he hinted with a bit of malice. He'd knock out these little henchmen one by one if he had to. And if they were sent on some sort of teamwork-brigade bull shit, hed make sure to be the only one to make it back. Eyes locked on the alphen and he flexed his paw, feeling the tail beneath and putting more weight on it. Just in case the runt had any ideas to back and squeal.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Aug 04, 2010 11:54 am

Maybe it was the annoyance of waiting but his eyes landed
on the whelp. "well now what will we do with you. Oh. I know." he was about to step up and take her when Deadly came out from the brush. He was twitching and biting at himself again. The brute was excited... "well? " but Deadly only shook his head and Evander let out a smile. "wanna go home if momma doesn't even care to come after you?" he turned away and looked at the area past Deadly. "you've brought company..." he didn't smile or anything just took note. Someone to leave Jabbar. Interesting. "legend and depression have made their way after jabbars oldest and newest family. Let's hope he doesn't make it back. Ha." Evander felt the whisper in the wind and looked up to the white figure comig quickly towards them.

"well you have enemies everywhere I can tell you that now." evander nodded "the challenge smells wonderful... Only he's right nothing is going to react without actions. Who's willing to go to tiristfal valley?" the brute looked around and caught sight of Deadly's eager look to return to the place where he had slaughtered the pup.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Aug 04, 2010 1:59 pm

|D|eadly |D|ance

The ashen woman stepped lightly after Deadly, following the bruja into another’s lands. She had never set foot on Jabbar soil; at least she couldn’t recall doing so. Her mind had switched, and her loyalties were of her own now, it was clear that Muerta didn’t seem fit anymore. Perhaps it was the loss of mind that caused her to betray her home, but it wasn’t like there were many fond memories of the place. No, she held a rival within those mountains, along with a few others she realized she held distaste for. Deadly got over the fact now, and realized it wasn’t really her home, just the first pack that she had stumbled upon. Her loyalties should’ve been in question the years past when she had first fled, but Akira must’ve not recalled or simply shrugged it over. Deadly brought herself along side her leader, smirking at the mention of her from the lyrics of another male. His stance and posture made her recognize the alpha position, not to mention the way he spoke. “Deadly Dance, at your service…” It held malice, and she smirked darkly, bowing slightly.

|Z|aiaku

Zaiaku continued to sit where he was, his sapphire eyes drank more of the white woman in. Distracted only briefly, but the sound of Evander and his orders. Right hand man? Oh, he wasn’t sure if that position suited him. No, Zai was much suited where he was, unknown and capable of anything. His hesitation to kill this new alpha wouldn’t exist, if it came to that, for now he was willingly a pawn. Twin peaks pricked at the order, steal a whelp from Muerta. It wouldn’t be hard; everything was a mess everywhere, so chaos was likely to distract any mother. His gaze shifted as a bruja came upon the scene, offering his own services. By his stance and his speech, Zaiaku could tell the wolf wasn’t sane, but then again, none of them were. Let the bruja try to show himself off, let the blood be on his paws, it mattered not to Zai. The hesitation didn’t exist in the male, as Zai watched him dash off and return a short while later. The whelp scented heavily of Muerta, but more of Akira. Zaiaku felt like laughing at the man’s words, he thought himself that great? It’s a whelp, nothing more, defenseless really. Zaiaku stayed in his position, he grew tired of everyone around him, they were all much to full of themselves.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Aug 04, 2010 4:57 pm

Eris tilted her head and examined Evander. She would need to establish a good relationship with this hessian if she wanted to start out a little smoother in her reign. She shrugged. "Akira and I have unfinished business." Thoughts flicked to the white witch and she felt an unpleasant feeling come over her. Ear flicked at the familiar sound of the flap of wings and her winged companion flew off in search of prey.

He sent someone to steal away one of Akira's pup and they arrived back shortly. Looking at the little thing who at the moment was making a very displeased noise. "She's not going to start a way over her child Evander." She stated simply. Eris knew how Akira felt about her children and it certainly wasn't love.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Aug 04, 2010 5:15 pm

Evanders attention was drawn away towards Eris. "I'm not sure if I want her to come here yet. I know there are action takers here and talkers. Then both. I wouldn't know who was suited for which task if she sent the whole lot of them
on me or us. But tell me Eris. How do you know she wouldn't react to me taking her." his nose pointed to the pup that the white female had now rescued away from Joker hurting her or not she had taken her a ways off and groomed on her a little. "tell me your name child. I'm Elvyra. Now what's yours?" she smiled at the female pickig out a flower to bat aroun with her nose infront of the pup.

Eris
looked the new king in the eye for just a moment and then her shoulders dropped into a half hearted shrug. "You have not been in lands long enough Evander." She stated simply, while most people could probably guess Akira wouldn't get into too much of a tizzy she knew personally she wouldn't. A wry smile flashed on her face and confidence snapped her bones back into place. "Beside, when's the last time anyone brought the fight to Akira? Hmm?" She eyed him meaningfully. "Everyone's too damn scared of attacking her in her own terra. Ha, what a joke." She glanced over at the pup, the pup had the same silver-gray hair as she did, well she ought to seeing how they were half sisters.

Having been carried from her mothers lands all the way to the meeting place in Jabbar her bones ached from the unkind transportation method. But indeed when he loosened his grip to drop her she was prepared and landed on all fours, but her body hurt too much to even attempt an escape. She knew it all too futile anyways. She whined when he stepped on her tail and was tempted to sink her little incisors into his mitt, but before she could do that she was saved by a female who said her name was Elvyra. And she was...kind...Mercy was not used to kindness from any female. The smoky colored pup ruffled her nose at the touch of the flower and frowned. "My name is Mercedes...but everyone calls me Mercy...why am I here?" She glanced at the brute that was in charge. "He looks like my father.." She whispered softly.

Elvyra smiled to the pup. "mercy I really like that it could come in handy with your future you know..." Her orbs danced with ideas and when the pup asked her final question Elvyra shrugged. "Evander is a confused brute but you'll be okay I promise my life on in. Infact I don't think it's right for you to have been taken... How about you and I go on a vacation? A big adventure and find our way home? But I'm going to have to talk to Evander first he might not let us." she gave the pup a brush of her nose with a smile and blew in her ear softly.

Evander looked at Eris with interest. "Elvyra..." He could hear her stand and he waited for soft movement. He turned to see her standing over the pup a protectiveness in her eyes. "what do you think your doing?" he asked harshly but got his answer instantly when she backed up and reached down towards the pup. "elvyra!" he said through a harsh growl. He didn't move fast enough and she snatched the pup and danced away. "you're going to play keep away with a pup?" his voice was mocking and he only got a head shake for an answer. "don't do something stupid. You have to care for her if you plan leaving. Feeding her. Bathing her. Teaching her. I dont think you can handle it" he smirked but didn't get a rouse from her. He rolled his eyes as she picked up the pup and parted from the lands. "eris what would you do towards Akira?" he was curious and wanted to know...

Gladiator
Gladiator moved into the area. Form holding its usual position. He sniffed the ground noticing all the new wolves that have been moving threw the land. He growled looking at Archillis the brute looked just like him only younger and not as stocky. "Something isn't right here. Do you know of anything that could be of help to me?" Archillis pinned his ears back but held his form. "Not too much. I just heard Harmi talk about a whelp he wanted. Other then that I didn't even know of the assassination." Gladiator growled again. The two where here. He could smell them. He let out a howl for Akiko. He wanted to see that she was safe and to figure out what was going on.

Bloodeye looked up as Evander spoke to her and Zai, making plans for them but then quickly changing his mind and offering the mission to a newcomer. She rolled her eyes and gave a snort. How boring. Joker was back in what seemed the blink of an eye with a pup in his jaws. Bloodeye could only cock her head as she watched a female come forward and 'rescue' the whelp from the men's clutches, playing keep-away with Evander before taking off with Mercy. Bloodeye shook her head. How weak and disorganized. Maybe this Evander was not fit to rule Jabbar after all. He seemed to be all over the place, making plans with little consideration and little coordination between pack members, merely sending them on suicide missions, leaving it up to them to survive.

Shrugging her shoulders, Bloodeye moved over to where Zai sat, looking rather unamused himself. She grinned darkly in his direction, seating herself close to him. Her auds perked, attention briefly stolen by the words of Eris. Bloodeye liked the way she spoke. And there was something deeper behind her words than mere bloodlust, the way she spoke of unfinished business... she must know Akira and hold some sort of grudge. Narrowing her eyes, Bloodeye turned back to Zai and leaned toward him, putting her muzzle close to his ear. "Perhaps we should dispose of Evander," she whispered in a low voice, "He seems just a tad bit scatter-brained. And his followers... well, they're not nearly as loyal as Damean's were. I bet we could have half of them turn on him in a heartbeat." She smirked, glancing to Eris, then to Deadly and back to Zai. Not only could his followers turn on him, but half of the ones showing loyalty had already been sent away, leaving Evander rather vulnerable.

The dark hued male simply continued to watch the on goings of the ‘pack’, and how everything was being done with a lazy attitude. Blue lanterns looked over the whelp, and then smirked as she was snatched away again, by some fem unfamiliar to Zaiaku. The bruja glanced Bloodeye’s way, before catching her moving closer, a smirk over came him briefly. She was possibly the only one among them that Zaiaku trusted, not to mention being the only one whose company he enjoyed. Auds pricked up as her lyrics filled him, and another smirk crawled it’s away against his dark maw. Was it the Bloodeye that simply didn’t like Evander, or was it the one he knew, the fem that he had met upon his arrival on the lands? A queen no longer, but striving to be one once again. He recalled their travels to the lone lands, and the futile attempt of a woman that tried to start a revolution. Yes, he remembered how much of a failure that had been. Despite it, he had found a wolf on the same level as him, if only a little more sane.

Zaiaku looked everyone over, and went through her words, something he knew already. Any one of them would turn on the white male in a second; it wasn’t hard to figure that out. Deadly was in on it for the fun, which Zai admired lightly, but would that insane bruja hesitate to kill Evander if it meant he’d be the leader? The situation was tense, almost every wolf around, likely wouldn’t hesitate to kill. They were all close to insanity, but it was power that they were thriving on. The male knew that none of them would likely make a good alpha, simply because they’d have too many hungry eyes on them. “In time, love.” Zaiaku started, whispering back to her with a smirk. “This shows getting old though, I can’t deny you that.” Sapphire orbs flicked over everyone again. “Things will change of their own accord, just ride the wave, and opportunities will show themselves. You will be queen once again, love, and I your king.” Zaiaku finished, giving her ear a quick lick, a playful smirk appearing, before leaving quickly.
