Deadly danced where he stood watching as the wolves went forth with his leader's call. Then it was then he watched as the wolves began to part away leaving behind nothing. His eyes searched and he watched Icarus go for an attack on Kira when Evander stepped into it and growled at the young brute snapping back at him for even going close to her. Evander didn't look all that tough as he so seemed when he asked Deadly and Harmi for help. "Icarus. Show out followers some slight respect will you. They didn't defend the white femore who just left tail tucked with no pride. Leave them be. Only, escort them closer to our queen so they can pledge their loyalty to her" Deadly stood saliva dripping from his maw as he too went over and urged the two wolves forward. "Come on. Get to moving, she'll need a bit of your blood to make it true" he didn't care if he was talking out his ass at the moment he knew he scared Evander, both him and Icarus did as they both would herd these two wolves towards the Queen of Jabbar, the Queen of the Midnight Wolves...

Snarls went up, and the dark bruja glanced around him, watching as the storm hit. It wasn’t unexpected, even after Harmi attempted to put reason in the woman’s mind. The blur of motion made Zaiaku smirk, the chaos that filled the air was like a fresh breath. However much it would seem his downfall, the scent of it was sweet. The insane ebon male smirked, watching with lucid blue oceans as everything went to hell. The Midnights began their attack, and Zai pressed against Bloodeye in defence. The golden bruja before him made Zai smirk, snapping like an idiot. Zaiaku held his defensive stance, but made no move to attack, allowing the wolves around him to be as aggressive as they wished. The sudden appearance of another wolf stopped the fight briefly, and words of hate were exchanged between the male and that crazed woman. The words were brief, of a relationship torn. More chaos added to the mix. The conversation was brief, and the attack was made. Instinct drove Zai forward, out of the jowls of the bruja behind him and closer to the hessian before him. His body fluidly moved past the bruja, and out of the fighting area. Auds flicked to Bloodeye, listening to her words. With them, he followed, but not before turning back with a smirk. “Thanks for everything, lovelies.”

He watched with intent eyes. How they burned every hole he could imagine into the others. His ebony pelt the same as his Grand shire the looks of a Midnight with no flaw. Time had come for him to save the others that would wish to be saved. The dark brute moved slyly to Armedia whispering in here ear "Death awaits you my lady if we choose to stay. Leave with me and bring others if you can." And so the word spread as fast as wild fire. Glory looked at his mate he felt the need to part with her. His vow was to her and Dracul not to the witch that lead them now. He looked at JR nodding his head showing his approval of the matter. JR smirked moving into view. "You know grandmother the lives of others are held in your mitts but others come with the fire we can not put out. Why should we stay here" His canning words ringing in the auds of others. The ebony brute moved closer I think it is time we leave your rule and fend for are own" The brute looked at the fea his time of silence was over.

Curse looked at JR a flash of her fangs ordered his silence but when it didn't work she charged at him.

JR growled dodging the fea with ease nipping his jaws at her side. When they hit his mark he smirked as the taste of blood filled his jaws. Curse came at him again only for JR to tackle her. Before the dust cleared he had the fea pinned and the noises of savage battle could be heard, but he did not hurt her only knocked her around a bit to show the others he could easily dominate there Queen. "Come with me those who wish to live the others see to it you die with honor or you will shame our kind." The young male moved off of Curse and to the trees he was going back to Muerta.

Soon after others followed. Armedia moved to where JR had moved to the shadows. Glory looking to Cira giving her a whimper to follow him home. Omisis looking at Curse "Sorry but I just want to fight not die" And with that he moved to only leaving Curse, Harmi, Deadly, Vlad, Aditi, and Icarus for battle if they stayed the full time no one knew.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jan 12, 2011 1:19 am

Cira hung her head as her mother did not answer her, instead refusing to back down from this. And when Cira's son suddenly challenged the powerful Curse, Cira gaped in horror. Her son, and her mother, tearing at each other. It was unbearable to watch, but she knew it was a struggle of powers that she had no right interfering with. Tears welled in her eyes as she watched her mother thrown to the ground, pinned helplessly beneath her son. Then her mate was near her, looking at her, his intentions clear. He wanted to leave this place, to forget about Curse's mad thirst for power. Her breaths coming harsh and heavy. Then she looked to her son, Jr, again as he left the lands, beckoning any who wished to live to come with him. She spied Omisis leave. Then her other son, Icarus.

Emotion choked her and overwhelmed her heart and mind. How could things be tearing apart like this? She knew what she had to do, what she wanted to do, but this would be the hardest thing she ever had to do. Her mother was going to pursue her power, and she was going to die futilely for it. But the rest had gone, the rest that she loved dearly. Her father, her sons, her mate.. only her mother wouldn't go, and Aditi seemed hesitant, yet she could see in her daughter's eyes that this was tearing at her too. The young one admired Curse, that was obvious, and it was hard for her to make a decision like this, especially so young. This decision would greatly affect the clan's future. But Cira turned. That was up to them. She needed to stay with those she loved, even though her heart broke leaving behind her mother.

She came up beside Glory, nuzzling into him as tears flow from her blue-white crystals, staining her beautiful face. "Why must things be this way?" she asked him softly, her voice almost hollow with sorrow. She knew he was a tough male, and he might feel somewhat awkward by her weakened, emotional state, but his strength and coldness would actually help her get through this. His heart wouldn't lead him in this as hers did, and he would make the rational decisions and thoughts for her that would make everything better. Dracul could not have given her a better mate, she thought. Then she lifted her head, shaking away a couple of tears. JR was leading them back to Muerta. But Pitchra waited for her in the lone lands at their gathering place. "Glory, I need to speak with my father before I return with the clan," she told him, "I should be back soon."

With the rest of the clan, she left the Jabbar lands behind, heading to meet her father in the lone lands...

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

Icarus snarled as Evander stood in front of Kira, and then Deadly came to reprimand him. He snarled at the older brute, snapping his jaws. Then he looked back at Evander and Kira. "Followers?" he questioned, spitting the word, "Yea right! They will side with whomever they think holds power! If those other wolves come and they outnumber us, these two worms will turn on us without a second thought! They are nothing but users, parasites for power!" He snapped again, this time towards Evander, snarling horridly, his tail high in the air.

He jumped back, and saw his mother come upon the scene. She questioned Curse, clearly not agreeing with her decisions, though it was also clear that Cira did not want to betray her own mother. But Pitchra came, and he declared his severance from Curse and the old clan, to continue the clan in new ways. Suddenly, Icarus wasn't so sure about anything. How could he fight against his own mother if Curse ordered it? And his grandfather? Or anybody else in his family? The Midnights were supposed to fight side by side, not against each other, yet now they were being split. Sides had to be chosen.

Then his brother moved forth to challenge Curse. Dracul JR was bigger than his grandmother, and basically the exact replica of their original leader. Would he join the revolution of the Midnight clan as well? It was obvious when Curse lunged for Jr and his brother tossed Curse around with ease, dominating her completely. He envied the brute's raw strength. But clearly he was making a statement about what he could do for the clan, if they gave up on Curse. Icarus held his breath for a moment. Then he looked to his mother again as she left with her mate, and Omisis, and JR went away from these lands to lead them. All that was left of them now were a few; the three elders, his sister Aditi, and her mate, Vlad.

Icarus hung his head, and he turned away, following their forms away from Jabbar. He felt torn, if his own brother was against this, then he would follow. He had always wanted to be as strong as his brother, and to try to surpass him, though he knew such was not possible. But he would believe in whatever JR thought was right. And besides, his own mother had gone. He glanced to Aditi, hoping she would come. She would die, outnumbered, if she stayed here with the few wolves left. And if their generation was to rule the clan now, then they needn't listen to the elders anymore. All they seemed to want to do was tell the youngsters what to do. The only elders left now would be his mother, her father, and Gladiator. All good, honest wolves. It would be better this way. Regardless, he turned away from them all and followed the rest of the clan members that had left..

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

Aditi jumped away from her opponent, the femme having made no attempt to fight back just yet. Something was happening, and before she figured that out, she saw her bigger brother JR toppling Curse onto her back in front of the entire clan. Her tail shifted. She had always known he was strong, but she almost couldn't believe he had overpowered Curse. She adored her grandmother, had always idolized her. How could she be so easily defeated? Aditi moved away from her battle with Zora, over to her grandmother as Jr left her on the ground and departed back to Muerta, beckoning whoever wished to come with him.

Aditi looked to Curse, concern upon her typically cold visage. "Are you alright?" she asked, trying to help Curse back up. It was then that she noticed her mother go, alongside her new mate Glory. She loved her mother more than anything. And both of her brothers had gone, too. And her grandfather. Even Omisis, who had stood so faithfully beside Curse. Was this how it was supposed to be? Yet another switch in the hierarchy of their clan? Who would lead now? Surely there would be more fighting amongst them... she wondered who would be most suitable. Maybe one of the remaining elders would make that decision. Aditi shook her head.

Now she looked over to Vlad, who still stood with the group. He was to be her mate, and she had almost enjoyed the little time they'd spent together playing in the water, despite how stubborn she felt about being assigned a mate. What did he think of all of this? She didn't know him well enough to understand his loyalties. So she looked back to Curse. "Please, don't let yourself get killed for this," she pleaded. She had been all for the Midnights ruling here in Jabbar, but that was when the rest of the wolves had stood with them. Now they would surely die when the original Jabbar wolves came back. In a way, it made her angry to think that those weaker breeds could overpower them and cause them to retreat. "Curse, maybe we should all just get out of here," she whispered, "We are a great clan, but maybe there are better ways that we can prove it.. we can keep our family alive, and still prove our worth to these blind fools."

She hoped her grandmother would see the reason in it all. She didn't even glance to Harmi or Deadly. She cared not for them. They were always sneaking about and causing trouble for the clan, giving them a bad reputation. Harmawganis had always been power-hungry himself. She wouldn't doubt if the chance arose he would pounce at the opportunity to seize power as well. She just wanted to have Curse come with the clan. Then she looked to Vlad. He needn't stay and be slaughtered either. "You.. you should come too, Vlad," she said quietly, almost shy towards him, "Dracul assigned you to me, after all.. we should stick together, and keep each other alive. The clan can help us."

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:10 am

Blinded by blood she could not reason. Her time was here she looked at Aditi. She knew the crazed blood of her father had come to it's end "Take Vlad and leave... "Curse gave the fea a small lick. Her clan had left her and she knew this was not what she wanted. She couldn't help it. It was her blood to act crazy. She stood again a bit dizzy but made her stand she would die. This was suicide and she knew it. Her beautiful mahogany pelt shined in the winter sun. Soon her fiat would come and she needed her family out of here. "I'm sick Aditi I must continue my journey till it ends. Take your mate and do better then what I have. Return to your home in Muerta. Serve Akira." Curse gave the fea a smirk.

Harmi growled as the scene spun before him. "That punk is going to be a problem Deadly." Harmi said in a snorting tone. Harmi's twisted mind rapped around the thoughts of murder once more. He licked his chops letting all fall into place soon he would terminate the punk. Really soon.

Vlad looked at Aditi he said nothing to her. He wanted to stay. She asked him to come but he didn't want it. His clan came before his mate so as she spoke to him he placed his head down not even looking at her.

OOC:I can't get the feel for Vlad anymore but I got another midnight for Aditi. It will fold out just right Smile

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jan 12, 2011 10:25 am

Evander looked at Kira. Saving their own hides came first and the brute spoke right only Evander wasn't sure if the brute who had now left knew Akiko wanted his head just as much as anyone else here. The bodice of a former king stepped away from Kira and up to Curse. "You have us as followers, but if you die, we leave, let's hope for your sake you don't die then" he nodded to her. He spoke for himself and Kira. He went back to her side and laid down, taking a deep breath and exhaling giving her the sign to lay down as well, he had words to share with her and share with her fast...

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jan 12, 2011 11:54 am

Curse snorted at the brute "If I die I promise to take yo with me" She growled to herself turning her head away from Aditi. She looked at Vlad giving him a nod before retreating to the darkness of a den. She laid there waiting for her death to come.

Harmi watched in anger. He could feel his blood boil. He took on Gladiator once well now since he knew the battle could not be won with just 5 wolves he would take the males life before he left these lands.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:36 pm

Eris stayed long enough to take snap at anyone who got near Bloodeye but that was all since retreat seemed their final plan, pity she wouldn't have minded a nice little fight. Laughing she followed Bloodeye out but while the fem raced off to the lone lands to find Pitchra she lagged behind preferring to stay in the middle knowing that the Jabbar wolves would be coming from Midnight Meadows. Perhaps Bloodeye would even head there, in that pattern of logic she saved herself some mileage and loped off to the border of Midnight Meadows.

ooc: Short and to the point

[size=12]
Kira, distracted by the pup, hadn't noticed the change in the clearing before it was too late and Evander had pushed her out of the way of an attack by one of the new wolves.

Stumbling back a little in surprise Kira growled low in her throat and stepped back up beside Evander, the hair stood on end along her neck and her lips were drawn up to show her sharp canines as she snapped at the brute who had charged her. She now noticed that the other brute had fled with the pup and she turned her attention back to the task at hand and Evander.

When the brute who had charged them started to herd them toward the she wolf who had started all this (curse), Kira was not impressed.

She would have gladly jumped upon the brute with slicing jaws and ripping claws but saw that Evander obeyed so with an annoyed growl and a shake of her head Kira followed Evander, tail still raised.

As they approached the fea (Curse), the brute who had tried to attack her spoke of them as if they were nothing.

Kira gave another low growl but said nothing. Then Evander was leaving her side to talk to the bitch. Kira wanted to step up beside him but decided against it, she would probably say something to make matters worse being in cycle with such anger in her as she had now.

She hoped Evander knew what he was doing. When he finally came back and layed down she took his hint and with an annoyed sigh turned a circle and lay down close to Evander, touching her nose to his maw she whispered, so only he could hear, "Thanks for having my back, but I sure hope you know what the hell your doing, not sure this is the bunch we should hang with."

With another annoyed sigh Kira looked back at the mahogany colored fea with a glare and swallowed another growl before resting her head upon her paws as she looked around the clearing... [/size]

Zora growled as the midnights lined up to take on the group. She found out quickly, these were not a wolf she could trust down the road. She took a snap at the wolf that changed at her, then backed off. Her hackles stood on end, she was ready for a fight, but it seemed that retreat was their choice of plan, then come back later. With hesitance, she backed away, and followed the others...

(So Short and Horrible!)

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 02, 2011 9:02 am

She had rested enough now it was time for battle. She could feel her blood begin to race. She let a howl out for her remaining Midnights to follow. She looked around spotting Deadly, Harmi, & Vlad. Was this it. Was this all she had that loved her. She snorted showing no signs of fear. She growled then snarled looking around to the trees "Since our numbers are small we will hide in the trees. We will blend in till there right in front of us, Now take your places and skin anyone who comes in." She looked at Harmi giving her brother a last look before going into the trees. Time was now a tomb for her. She needed out and death was her salvation.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Mon Feb 07, 2011 9:53 pm

Aladar stepped into the main gathering area as the wolves began to hide. He stepped up to Evander who was with a female wolf. "Better hurry. I know they're coming soon, pathetic bunch" he was eyeing his brother as his brother scanned him over with question. "What, don't trust me, get over yourself Evander, you know it was all for show" he lifted a lip only to have Evander step up to him. Both were squared off, Evander though did this for a reason, if Aladar was on their side or not when Jabbar wolves showed up they would have a nice scene to unfold on so the Midnight wolves could attack... He wanted Aladar dead though....as much as he wanted to be dead he wanted his brother dead more...

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Mon Feb 07, 2011 11:00 pm

White pads stepped onto the hard earth. Her breath fogged right in front of her face. Winter's icy touch only excited her, stirring her arctic blood. Looking at the fleet of wolves she had with her she doubted that she would need to call in Despair's wolves. Crystal hues scanned the surrounding area searching for Petra. She was unsure if the fem would meet up with them and fight or come in after to help tend the injured. She was sure Blade would prefer the latter. Looking back at the warriors she flicked her tail and signaled them to fan out. Surely they were expected by now, though Akiko had no doubt that their numbers were sufficient, especially with some of Midnight Meadows swelling their ranks. Ever so slowly she stalked forward, into their homeland to slaughter the usurpers. She didn't know what to expect but she knew the end result could only be victory for them.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Tue Feb 08, 2011 11:36 pm

Aladar looked to the side as Akiko's form came into the clearing. He paused for the shortest second and Evander took a snarl through his lips. "Told you..." he whispered and then stepped back as another white brute came into the picture. "What..." he whispered and felt the hair on the back of his neck stand up. Serenity. His own son, with these lot... "Fool!" he screamed out loud and growled as his own son's hackles rose, but his only child didn't look at him, he was looking around the pack trying to find someone. "I killed her you know" he said harshly towards Serenity, laughing as Aladar let out a growl. "You'll never know where to find her either, for she'll never lay rested in peace the way I killed her" he was trying to provoke the bru, get them fighting. If he wore them out first, the Midnights would have a chance, they were strong, agile, and they would defeat these wolves...

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 09, 2011 9:22 am

Blade silently prowled towards the center of the pack, in a different area from Akiko, heeding her words to spread out. There were new scents in the air... Oh well. That's just more wolves they'd have to kill if they'd already given their loyalties to Evander. He glanced in the direction he knew Akiko was, hoping she'd keep her head just cool enough to stay alive. Damean Jr. needed her to. Clearly, there wasn't any order. No one had really noticed them... or did they even care? It was apparently some of the Midnights had left. For what reasons, he didn't care as long as they didn't come back for a fight.

Evander, Aladar, Serenity, and one unknown wolf came to his sights. Just the sight of Evander caused a rush of adrenaline carrying an untamed rage, although to go as far as calling him a blood traitor would be hypocritical of him. There were still wolves here. Even a two-on-one fight wouldn't be wise if they could help it until they were more certain of the numbers. He stepped out, and growled out, "Still cowering behind words and other wolves, aren't you... Have most of the midnight clan who were supposed to have come here also forsaken you?" He flicked his tail in annoyance, and continued, a taunt of his own to see if he'd fall for his own trick, "When has anyone even seen you fight properly... or... can you even?" He smirked, and settled into a seemingly nonchalant appearance. It was his move, and Blade was sure he was ready to counter whatever move he'd make next.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 09, 2011 6:11 pm

Gladiator moved in slowly his ears perked as he did. The sounds of movement he could hear but before he knew it the black form of Harmi was over him. He twisted flinging the male to the side but he has already clamped down on his side. He could feel the pain take over his ribs as the skin and flesh began to rip off. Rage filled his eyes as they shot to there royal blue. He snapped at the brutes face tearing the skin on top of his head. He could see Curse moving at top speed to Akiko who was directly in front of him. He pulled letting the chunk of flesh leave his form he smashed his body into Curse sending the fea a little to the left keeping her from finishing the attack. Before he knew it Harmi was back on him grabbing the scruff on the back of his neck He pulled flinging the male with such force he could not believe the young male had. He snarled landing on his feet skidding only to run back... The blood left his body from the wound on his side but the rage covered it....

Curse could feel her body shake as Gladiator did his stupid act. She barked for Vlad to charge him quickly turning to akiko her form aiming to hit the female. Her jaws opened aiming for the small feas maw. . .

Vlad moved quickly from the shadows only to be centered with blade. He growled horridly Charging him. He moved to the left then smashed his mits down jumping clean over the brute aiming for the back. The spines clean view was in site and that was his aim....

Harmi let the blood stain his maw. His mahogany markings hiding the blood but he licked it letting the lust for more trickle threw his veins. He watched as Gladiator came to him. the equal formed male charging with rage. He knew his aim was impeccable.He was more experienced in battle but he cared not he wanted him dead. He moved letting Gladiator slide past him only to have his hind quarter shoot with pain. The rage filled him as he shot his head around rapping his jaws around the old wound from before he pulled letting the flesh come off. Blood flooded the floor and he snapped again pulling his hind quarter away from him. Letting the wound take form. It was huge but nothing compared to what he just did.

Gladiator snarled as Harmi pulled away. Everything was going so fast. The pain from his shoulder made his leg grow stiff. He charged again aiming for the brutes neck only to miss. Fuck he is quick. was all he thought taking his circling as Harmi did. "Fools of the Midnight breed. You will die so you may not taint any offspring with your stupidity." ...

Harmi circled only letting a laugh out as Gladiator spoke "Weakness will die with you old man" He let his bark out for Deadly where the hell was he........

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 09, 2011 8:55 pm

Aladar watched as Midnight wolves came out and attacked. His body moved as one circle infront of Blade. He departed away from Evander just as fast as he arrived. His black body moved towards Vlad and he shoved into him knowing this would probably be a bad move but just as soon as he attacked him Serenity was out there going for Curse. The bru had no idea who was who but was glad the stranger was here to help. Then came a laughter that made his spine tingle even in a fight...

Deadly stepped from the shadows watching as each wolf began to attack. "Oh joy... a family gathering." he walked casually and looked around. "Awww can't we all just get along?" His laughter spilled from his lungs and his red eyes landed on Akiko. "Oh hello sister family. Come to try and get your home back. Failure... you all come to fight for honor but guess what, we beat down your 'king' once already what makes you think we can't beat you down too?" He laughed again and stepped backwards, thinking of fleeing but hadn't yet.

"Oh Harmi, you're doing such a good job, but I think that one needs to die first before we can carry on with the rest here." He didn't know who to have fun with first. His eyes landed on Akiko again and tauntingly he kissed the air, winked, then licked his lips in a sadistic manor...

Evander's blood was boiling, he didn't know who to attack at the moment, but he knew he wanted to peg someone... Blade... He turned his eyes on him and smirked. "Come on boy..." he whispered hoping to get his attention without problem.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 09, 2011 10:04 pm

He was aware of his surroundings, but at the same time, he wasn't. Blade maneuvered around, carefully avoiding the wolves who were engaged in battle without paying them any attention. A stray midnight had tried to attack him from above, but Aladar had attacked him as he moved to the side. Without a backwards glance, he strode towards Evander, and just able to pick up on what he had said as he approached. "'Boy', huh? Does that mean you're the 'old man'?" His stride spoke confidence while the back of his mind debated with him. Perhaps it'd work after all... He broke into a run, looking as if to attack Evander in the jaw, but near the last second, changed his aim to his feet, ready to clamp down hard. Blade knew he'd be an easier target if his attack connected, but he was betting on Evander to take advantage of this if he didn't dodge the attack.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Wed Feb 09, 2011 11:21 pm

It happened quick. His concentration was lost at the movement Vlad had done. He made a mistake and for it he paid greatly. Harmi had charged right when Gladiator's eyes left his. The ebony brute had grabbed hold of the side of Gladiators face he shook violently sending blood flying as he did. Gladiator had no choice but to cry in pain. He could feel the fangs dig deeper into his flesh. He could feel his skull began to put presser on his brain. The massive ivory male started to panic which was the second mistake he made. He flung himself around using his wait to knock Harmi over who had seemed to lose is footing. A loud whine of pain escaped both males as all of Gladiators weight landed on top of Harmi. Harmi could feel his bones crack as he did. The pain was so bad even the rage could not cover it so he let go. That was Harmi's first mistake. Gladiator ignored the blood that began to sting his eyes. He clamped down on Harmi's maw shaking it as he did. He could hear the teeth inside began to give way. He could taste the blood pouring out the brutes mouth into his. He could feel his fangs dig deep into his flesh and the sound of a whimper and a snarl in one leave Harmi. Harmi struggled wiggling his way to his feet. He twisted his maw out of Gladiator's mouth and turned running into the shadows. . .

Gladiator stood victorious on his end his legs shaking as the blood leaked from his head. He turned his attention to Curse taking long strides to help the fea that had charged her. He knew not of who she was but it was enough for him that she was helping.

Curse snarled as yet again her attack was stopped repeatedly snapping wildly at the fea not caring where her fangs landed. She could feel her shoulder grow in pain as Gladiator had aimed for it ripping it open. He was no fool he bit and pulled back which was a wise choice for she was even faster then her brothers. She ignored the fea aiming for the already weakened Midnight. She managed to snap at the wound he already had on the side of his face. More blood spilled from the brutes face... She watched as Gladiator stumbled and moved forward again. "Persistent aren't we" her cold lyrics quick but loud enough for him to hear. She shoved the brute only to get another snap close to her chest. The pain was welcomed.Her push sent him tumbling over. Curse then turned her attention to the fea giving her another snarl before moving to her again she was done playing and aimed to kill she used her full force aiming for her neck but braced herself for when her mits hit the ground so she could move to hit her fangs on the fea's chest if the first target was missed....

He felt dizzy as Curse snapped at his already opened wound she hit enough flesh to cause more damage. He wrenched in pain but pushed threw it. Her words echoed in his ears as picture moment of her as a whelp flashed threw his mind. This was his brothers daughter,this was his niece. He was left behind to care for her and yet this is what she had become. He let a horrid snarl of his own out as she came for him. She shoved him as he snapped at her chest. Aim hitting its mark. Blood seeped threw the wound he had left before the brute fell over. He panted heavily royal blue eyes searching for cover as he laid there trying to catch his breath. He grunted erasing the coward thought from his mind. He pushed himself to his feet moving to where Aladar stood facing Vlad. it only took seconds as the memories flooded his mind. This was his family and yet he knew they had to be stopped. He knew Harmi ran off to heal his broken ego and now he must take one more before leaving the battle to the others. He charged tackling the young male. Rage filled him with a unbelievable rage. It covered every emotion every feeling his body held. He ripped at the Midnight sending great power threw every bite. He could hear Vlad's cries of surprise turning into snarls. He pressed on shaking the brute as he laid on his back. Gladiator aimed for the brutes chest just in between his front legs he could hear the chest bones braking as he shook more violently. Vlad in a panic grabbed the other side of Gladiator's face and ear. He too shook as the sounds of loud cries left him. Gladiator answering with his own snarls. The scene was gruesome and he didn't stop. He let go flashing his fangs and aiming for Vlad's neck. He grasped the brutes windpipe then pulled. All that was heard after was the gargling sound of Vlad's last breaths..... Gladiator let the adrenalin race threw him. He looked at Aladar royal blue crystals showing only hate then they slowly lost there color and turned to there icy blue. He could feel the pain now and he could feel his legs grow weak. Before he knew it they had buckled and it sent his massive for strait down with a loud thud. The fall took all his air out. The large male struggled to breath. He needed to calm down or he would die and he knew it. He moved a little placing his legs so he was not putting weight on his stomach anymore. He panted heavily as the blood flowed threw every wound....

OOC: sorry everything is going so quick I don't know how long my internet is going to work I kinda broke the receiver lol and my new one takes three to five business days to come in. Just wanted to finish off Vlad before this thing went out again

Evander smirked at Blade who responded back, good, he got the hint and then it started. He hadn't expected the bru to have speed within him and Evander was pulled to the ground quickly by Blade's attack on his foot. He felt himself trip over each paw and Blade's head and his chin landed somewhere on fur but soon toppled and he was on his back. He had to get up quick if he wanted to try and fight at all! He growled to himself and rolled on his stomach right front paw shaking as he stood up. Blade had broken it, he could feel it... and this... this was where Damean and him had a difference.

Had it been Damean here and Evander dead Damean wouldn't feel the pain for there probably would be none. He smiled to himself thinking of his brother's attempts to claim the lands of Fire and Ice through harmony and love when in all reality it was some stupid idea to everyone else. Damean... fool. Evander's thoughts were taking him elsewhere and he focused back on the bru who had attacked him. "Nice shot. Now it's my turn" he lunged forward feeling the pain, letting the pain course through him and heading for Blade's shoulder or any other part of him...

Serenity glanced from Curse and he growled spinning back round to face her again when she came facing him with a fake attack to Gladiator. It struck his face and he barked in slight shock. "Ouch" he said but before he looked up his body moved forward towards Curse in a barreling mode. He would slam her with his shoulders before making any mark upon her clean pelt.

Aladar looked at Harmi when he drove of. Gladiator was a spinning top going from one wolf to another, weakening them before he himself dropped after taking atleast one down. Rage was this wolf's best friend. Aladar stepped up to him as the bru fell to the ground. "Hold on. I'll be right back!" he dashed into the trees, he needed to find something. Exodus had told him to use it on the wounds of fallen wolves...

OOC: Umm Kip, I thought Curse was attacking Akiko.

The bru had followed as closely as he could behind the others, but clearly time was of the essence and the few minutes' time between them was more than enough to separate he and Morgan from the others. They crossed into the lands and could hear the fighting a ways off. He allowed himself to take a deep inhale and absorb the scent of home. Oh what he had missed. Evander's stink was everywhere, and it put him off. He made a dash and came on the scene, where the war already begun. Damn. He had been hoping for a lovely little stand off. No matter. The run he put on the last few yards had brought his pulse up, and it skyrocketed at the smell of fresh blood and the sounds of battle. He smiled eerily to himself, digging his claws deep into the earth. Where to begin? His eyes snapped to the still form of Gladiator, breathing, but bleeding too much for his liking. He looked to Morgan as he appeared beside him. "Go move him. You can fight with us when he's safe, Midnighter." His eyes followed as Morgan took off swiftly, at the outskirts of the fighting where he seemed to be safe. He continued to look around.

Target sighted.

He could see Deadly harassing Akiko, who already seemed to have enough on her plate. He rushed to the spot and skidded to a dramatic halt, bristling, and very, very unhappy at the brute's action's toward her. "Hey loverboy," he hissed. He thought to finish the attention-getter with a bad pun, but figured it just wasn't worth it. It was clear that they would both know exactly who this bru was from the time of the assassination, and would both want a piece of him. But he was calling dibs. If Akiko wanted to join him, fine. But he wanted a battle of his own. As soon as the words left his mouth he let a snarl tear from his throat that had not been uttered for years.

Crow wanted revenge. Pure, untainted. This was for Damean. This was for Shelly. This was for him. This was for all those long, destructive years of torment his past caused him, seeing his old enemies in these new ones. This was for the man he so dearly admired, struck down by the shit that was Deadly's kind. He crouched, pillars splayed to hold him low, before launching like a rocket, calculated, aiming precisely for the scum's neck. The bru would turn to defend himself, and whichever side he left open was for his fangs to find. And if he drew back, then it was his face on the line.

Morgan slunk past the gore and carnage. There didn't seem to be anyone for him to take on around here anyway. He kept his eyes and ears wide open. There didn't seem to be anyone around, but the Midnights were a crafty bunch. And as much as he wanted to fight, if he was caught by any one of them, it was his doom. He approached Gladiator slowly, carefully, so as not to startle the hessian. He looked over the large frame. He had seen Aladar make off to get herbs. Good on him. But where the hell was Balthier? He would be of the most use right now. He lowered himself to Gladiator's level.
"We have to get you away from here," he whispered, "Can you walk? I'll carry you if I must." He anxiously awaited the answer, eager to get on the move and pull the bru from danger.

Gladiator could feel the warm liquid continue to fall from his wounds on his face. He had done them justice by running Harmi off. Or so he thought. . . He could fill rage fill him as the ebony brute moved into view once more. He growled horridly as the brute moved to where Akiko and Crow where. He struggled to get up but managed to get to his feet. He looked at Morgan then around to see where Aladar had gone. He would die if he squared off again with another. He looked at Akiko then to Morgan again before he spoke "I'll be fine right here... I can't leave this spot just yet." The ivory male managed to sit. His crystals watching Harmi's every move.

Harmi growled a little from behind Crow. "Times of heist brother. Finish the fea and lets get out of here." The massive brute looked at Crow throwing a few snaps his way. He was diverting his attention to him. He was not badly wounded from Gladiator he only ran because he didn't want to end up like poor little Vlad. Harmi watched crow waiting for his move.......

Curse saw the brute come at her she watched as his form slammed into hers she braced her mits shooting her form into a spin before he knew it she was on the back side of him. She moved quickly aiming for the soft tendon behind the brutes back leg.....

OOC: curse tried only to have serenity there before she made it....

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:44 am

OOC: Gotcha. Aaanyway, this works Razz

The hellion was a hair's breadth from striking when another's fangs caught him for a moment. He growled and watched a small trickle of blood run down his shoulder and stain his white pillar. He looked up at Harmi menacingly, licked the blood away and savored it for a moment, and decided he was next. Akiko could have Deadly. She deserved it more anyway. He chuckled, looking over the already war-stricken bru. "Haven't you had enough of getting your ass beaten?" Crow lunged in a false snap, trying to draw his guard, and started to circle him tightly. His ghostly gaze pierced the bru, and when he got near Harmi's back leg, he lunged again, going for any slice of muscle or bone he could grab. If he could break something, well, his day would be that much better.

Morgan sighed in exasperation at Gladiator's protest. He had followed the bru's gaze and seen where it was he looked. Really, he stayed for a woman? He looked over the bru, bloodied and ridiculously beaten. "Well, if you're not moving," he almost growled, "Guess it makes two of us." There was no one for him to fight, and it was all he could do to stay and back up the older male until he could be safe. His eyes flicked to and fro, watching the others carefully. He had come to help - and in a way he was, he supposed - but he wanted to fight. It was strange. For the first time in his life he wanted to kill. It was a strange feeling. Maybe all of this pent up rage from the past events in Midnight were becoming too much for him. If he got the chance, he would take it head on. They just had to invite him.

And in the shadows someone else watched, mere feet away, biding his time and holding back a maniacal laugh that would make the forest shudder. He knew this was going to happen. Oh Evander, what the hell have you done to this place? You stupid fuck.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:58 am

Harmi laughed a little as the brute spoke "I'm not the one bleeding to death now am I?" His eyes never leaving Crow's. He watched the brute snap at him only inches from his face but as he did he moved his hind quarter away from the direction the brute was going. He learned his lesson the first time with Gladiator and he would not fail again. As he moved he snapped wildly not caring where the fangs landed. He was just dancing with the male no real effort to battle he was giving his brother time so they could both move out the lands once the deed was done with Gladiator's pathetic heart.

Gladiator looked at Morgan as he spoke to him. "I am safe right here. I still got enough fight left to protect myself." He watched the males eyes seeing the want for battle. "Go help Serenity Morgan he will need it. Curse is only toying with him. The brute will die." He watched Morgan waiting for his reaction. There was only three midnights and they could handle more then one wolf at a time. They are evil little creatures breed with insanity. His nieces and nephews. He knew them to well he had trained them. He had loved them and yet they murdered there father and the King of Jabbar. He shook his head some only to get dizzy again. He laid down now keeping his belly above the ground in case he had to move quickly....

Balthier raced in, navigating through the lands, his scent masked just enough to not be too noticeable to wolves were were fighting. Blood. There was some already spilled, and clearly more to come. He slowed down, catching Morgan's scent with one that was covered in blood. They were too close to the fighting. Holding back a sigh, he quietly walked forward, stashing some of the herbs he carried in an inconspicuous spot that was covered. Naturally, he'd be able to find some decent hiding place for tiny objects, with his trained thief's eye. With most of the herbs in hiding, he continued on with the rest, stepping behind Morgan and Gladiator, making slight noises as he approached to not startle them too much if they were too focused on the fighting.

"Why is he still sitting here?" he whispered harshly. He had already dropped the herbs he didn't need and was chewing up. He paused long enough to say, "Oh, and if you inadvertently touch any of these red stains on me, make sure you don't let any of our allies lick at it." He nodded to some of the stains on his fur, "Any poor fool to take a bite out of this healer in the wrong spot, before I wash it off, is in for a slow, agonizing death wish unless they are immune. I hate using poisons, but those Midnight clan wolves are an annoying pain... no offense to you, ally," he aimed this last comment at Gladiator. He only covered his vital areas in case he was working on a patient and taken by surprise. This was part of the reason he was a bit late. It looked like blood stains from a distance, but on closer inspection, it was clearly different.

He turned his head to look at Gladiator, checking the source of the horrible-looking wound. "You're gonna stay still while I apply this, right?" He had noticed him watching the fight.

-Hell's Gates- - Page 8 Blade1

He felt the weight of the wolf fall on him before falling off. Blade did not expect this... clumsiness from Evander, but ignored it, satisfied with getting away this time without anything except a few bruises. Then, he noticed an attack, Evander charging at him. Although his movements seemed fluid enough, it was clear that foot was injured. He smirked darkly as he felt Evander's jaws close around the part of his shoulder more towards his side. "Check," he snarled as shoved his forepaws at the part of the leg he had clamped down upon moments before and twisting his head to bite at Evander's head, neck, anything he could reach.

Subject: Re: -Hell's Gates- Thu Feb 10, 2011 1:47 pm

Gladiator eyed the male as he spoke "It's just the offspring of my brother that are fools" He could feel the sharp pain getting worse "I'll be still right now I just need the bleeding stopped." He licked his maw eyes still focused on Harmi Akiko and Deadly not to far off. They where close enough so he could see them. He groaned a little wishing the brute would hurry...

Serenity hit his mark and was thrown sideways only to feel the swoosh of air and she was gone coming up behind him. He jumped scrambled whatever move he could muster to avoid any such attacks. As much as he was here to help he wasn't here to fight. His body flopped to the ground as she came closer and he turned making himself a stump for her to trip on, anything. He couldn't hurt her, it just wasn't him... He couldn't. He felt bad for coming to aid only to not help... but he would. For she couldn't breath forever and couldn't fight a never attaching fight... Someone else would have to come in a finish the female themselves. Serenity... he was to pure...
