New Wolf Era

Kou slept wonderfully in terms of so many of her dreams coming true at a sudden time, and her dreams kept her at peace through the night. Every once in awhile she would stir a bit, knowing deep down that every second the clock ticked closer to her having to say goodbye to her fellow Ronoh pack mates, possibly for the last time. This stirred her up and Abe opened an eye, glancing around for a moment as her heart pounded at the sight of the sub creeping slowly over the horizon. Morning would come, morning would come way too fast.

Zorr

Zorr kept a thoughtful look along his face as if he was deep in thought. He wriggled around, "I think I might have an idea, love." He cooed, licking her muzzle slowly. He felt himself grow more on edge as his love for her was building up rapidly. He swiftly brought himself away from her and made his move, one that would hopefully cause the creation on new beginnings for the both of them and the pack. As he finished, he dropped down to lay besides her, curling his body around her's. Giving her a tired lick between the ears as he whispered with smokey whisps curling from his muzzle, "I love you, sleep well precious." The alphas eyelids started to feel heavy and his head dropped across her shoulders and he was out within seconds as exhaustion took over.

Soon enough, the first rays of sunlight peeked into the den. Zorr wished to ignore them, curling closer besides Catorii. But, it was something that he had to do. He may have still be exhausted from last night, but there was still a vigor starting to pump through him. Stiffly rising up and trying his best not to disturb her, Zorr looked down on her with a smile, keeping his eyes on her. Before long, Zorr turned once more and left the den. Thor had been waiting patiently on a closeby tree, deciding to forgo sleeping in the den tonight. He swooped down and landed besides Zorr.

"Ready for today?" The eagle asked, ruffling his wings for a moment. Zorr sighed and lifted his head, "Yes, and I hope the rest of my pack is." He announced, making his way slowly toward the center of Sera.

Zorr

Zorr kept his head up high, watching as the sunrise was starting to come out over the horizon. The alpha raised his head farther to release a low howl out to his pack. The time was nearing and they needed to assemble. Thor gave his own nod of his head for the helper would be there to assist his wolf with whatever he needed, be it a distraction or an airborne attack.

All of her wildest dreams had come true that day, and Catorii slept like a rock as she felt the warmth of Zorr fade away. As dawn inches into her wyes, she squinted and opened them, looking around in a confused manner. Was this all really a dream? It was cold, where she lay. She was alone, and let out a sigh as her head dropped down to the ground. "I knew it was too good to be true.." she said softly, accepting that the wonderful experience she had last might was a dream. But.. Then.. What? Where was she exactly? Oh! It can't be..? But it is! Catorii smiled brightly as she notice where she was: the Alpha den. Standing, the female wriggles around her coat as bits of flames struck and sizzled on the cool ground. Runnin towards the entrance of the cave Catorii smiled big a she saw Zorr! But.. Her smiles faded as she saw the look on his face. War was here. And she may never see him again. Crouching low, Catorii snuggled herself into a fetal position, in which she began to silently cry, feeling as though this just may be the end of her happy love life. She needed to say goodbye, but the male was busy. Catorii wept, and wept quietly.

Kanji walked slowly into the pack lands, eyes cut into a slit of determination. He simply sat down next to a familiar looking male who seemed to be of sensibility, and nodded to the Alpha. "I have news, Alpha Zorr." he said simply, "of the weak points of Ronoh. Along with a certain female who helped me."

Kanji flicked his tail as he listened to the Alpha. "did some business with her when she was a younger wolf and when I was apart of Ronoh. She owed me and needed to pay off those dues." Kanji said nothing more, feeling no need to explain himself. "Kenpachi is the known Alpha, Zane has disappeared and has been missing for some time now. Kenpachi is a large Armor wolf, I would assume you would already know his weakest point is his stomach, but he speeds much too much time protecting his stomah and forgets about the key part of protection." the male took a moment to grin as if he knew all. "his eyes." he said, simply. Then, he let out a breath of air. "the female that helped me, you shouldn't see her for I warned her to keep her distance but refuses to tell her why," he lied. "but if you see her, she is a dark hue of purple, with a black star over her right eye." he said the simplest way to describe her, except for her name. "She yields acid, and is very good at her element." Kanji thought for a moment, and spoke again. "the Alphess is electricity, then there is another female, yielding light. I am pretty sure the mother of the purple wolf is still there, who yields ice, along with her mate who is of water." he tried remembering the other pack members but it was hard, for he hadn't spent much time there. "oh, re acid wolf has a brother who is of electricity. I don't know where he is, but he's an ass." Kanji said, remembering his thoughts on Grimmjow. "I don't know much about new members, I'm afraid." he let out a shrug, siting quietly now as he waited for some sort of a thank you.

Kanji lowered his gaze towards the cold hearted wolf who had whispered something under his breath. "you ain't the only one, kid." he seemed to have a malicious grin swiped across his face as he spoke. Oh, revenge would taste good.

Vishu

He turned and looked at Kanji and said "You can't possibly think you're going to fight Kenpachi, he's the one who killed my mother..he's mine." He surpressed a low growl at the wolf that was trying to steal his fight.

Kanji raised an eyebrow, now glaring at the sensibility wolf. "and you can't possibly think you'd survive fighting Kenpachi on your own?" he almost laughed, but his eyes kept a serious gaze. "if I thought I could kill him alone, I wouldn't be here finding help. What makes you think your stronger than me?" he spat. This male went through too much training out at mount Bruno to be called weak; if this male before him really thought he could take Kenpachi on his own, fine. Kanji would watch him die before taking an aim at the Alpha like a team should. "if you recall, you are in a pack, and should fight as if you are in one." he said, eyes shifting back to Zorr to wait for another commandment. If Zorr said otherwise to Vishu, fine. But as far as Kanji was concerned he was here to offer help, not be told what to do.

Nora

Nora was getting even more nervous with all the hostility going on, and she couldn't find Kou anywhere, and She didn't see Catorii either. Her ears flattened so she sort of his behind Vishu.

Zorr

Zorr nodded his head in Kanji's direction right before a dispute arrived over Vishu and Kanji, causing tension and seemed to have escalated. The alpha snarled, jumping up to his paws and flames too over his paws to stop this from getting worse. "Enough!" He howled out at them, "We are at war with Ronoh, not with each other. We will fall if there is fighting and rivalry within our pack. I won't have it!" He snapped, his firey gaze looking square from Kanji to Vishu.

"Now," He announced, settling himself down, as he took in what Kanji had informed him earlier before the fight took place. So, Zane had disappeared, where did he run off to? No matter, he needed to get his pack lands back to become reunited, it was only right. And it looked like Ronoh still didn't expect the looming threat of their surprise attack.

"Thank you, Kanji, for giving us an advantage and having an insight into Ronoh's pack and members. Now, all of you wolves know the elements that are found in Ronoh. I suggest you avoid your weaknesses if you should come across them and prepare for them. I will leave Kanji and Vishu to both," He explained, turning to them, "As a team," He growled and added emphasis. "To take on Kenpachi, everyone else is free game. They are the only ones instructed to kill unless Ronoh starts fighting dirty delivering death attacks, then you may mimic them for your own saftey. However, I expect the alpha female might be another thing standing in the way, she may also be killed unless she runs off for she owns half the pack."

"Now, if there is much bloodshed. We may have to retreat, listen to my callings. And if I fall, I'd like for Eli to take over and call the pack back...and to inform Catorii. Also, Tyson, I'd like you to stay closely with which ever healer is coming with us for assistance in protecting and what not. You have the time ability, so that would be greatly appreciated at those times."

"Now, are you guys ready?" He asked, a twinkle lit up in his eyes.

Nora

She heard the Alpha speak of Healers and gulp, she wanted to be out there healing her new pack mates but maybe the alpha would think she was to young and would make her stay here. She crawled under Vishu in a cuddly way, and looked at him straight in the face. "Vishu if I don't see you again, it was wonderful to spend this night with you" She told him then gently licked his nose.

Nora

She too had a soft spot for the hurting wolf, and it felt good to feel him nuzzling up to her. She almost felt sad that he might be leaving her, her eyes started to tear up, as she just held her face in his neck.

Nora

She sniffled, then nodded. She knew that it took a lot for him to care for another so it made her feel good, she just hoped that maybe he could have another chance at love. He licked him one last time, then turned around to the alpha, "Excuse me, Alpha Zorr, which Healer will be going out with you guys tonight?" She asked him.

Vishu

He looked at Nora sighing he didn't exactly want her in the fight but without Kenpachi she'd be safer, he didn't quite know why he cared about her but he did, she had accepted him..and he was broken a mess to be honest he had horrible anger problems and yet she didn't care..it amazed him.

Kou watched as Eli approached. His touch made her shiver with fear as she felt their moments together were shrinking. "you better hurry your butt back here so I can fix you up, you hear?" Kou said with a sad smile. "I love you too, Eli." she whimpered an sniffled a bit.

Zorr

At Nora's question, he turned to look at her. Giving a small cough as she and Vishu got distracted with each other. "I'd talk to Kou, I'm not sure if she's well enough to come or if you don't have enough training. It wouldn't matter, but that'll need to be decided quickly." He added.

Hearing the pounding of paws through the swishing grass underfoot, Zorr turned his head to see who was rushing forth. It was none other than his mate. A smile flickered across his features instantly, she was awake. He nuzzled into her, brushing his head across her comforting. "I will try my best, sweetheart. I wouldn't want to leave you alone, but you must be safe here too." He whispered, giving her a lick behind her ear. "I love you, Catorii. Just keep your mind occupied with the thought of me returning and the happiness you'll get when you see me."

Eli

He kept his eyes closed till his peace was interrupted he didn't want Kou there. He stood over her and with a stern look and said "Kou is not leaving the safety of the pack, If you go I'll help make sure you're safe but Kou is sick she cannot go." And in his head Eli added ' and possibly pregnant.'

Aeris

She silently watched the group before watching Apollo arrive. Ugh! He had made her in a bad mood. Standing, the female watched as couples did so what and so fourth. She felt slightly awkward, so she walked away in a sad step. But, her heart pounded and her worries faded. She would need to concentrate, for her inability to battle was almost embaressing and as a warrior, well, she didn't want to die. "Think, think think." She mumbled to herself, trying to convince herself that fighting wouldn't be too hard.

 

Tyson

The male nodded simply. "Alpha Zorr, instead of sending a healer straight into battle, might I suggest being on watch, and keeping the wounded safe while calling to a healer? I feel bringing Nora and Kou are bad ideas since they don't know much about fighting..." He gulped, not normally speaking up to the Alpha, but he felt it was the safest way to go. "I will create  a time zone in the forest, where we can move as such speed we will seem.. as if we were invisible.." He grinned, oh, what fun this would be. But, in all seriousness, he knew it was important to follow his Alpha's rules no matter what.

Zorr

He tried to look strong at Catorii, hating how she was crying or tearing up. He just wanted to be with her, but that would have to wait. Zorr turned at Tyson's suggestion, "If you can manage that, Tyson. Then, by all means go ahead, that would be extremely helpful and would put our healers out of risk." He replied, his tail swinging upward to gently caress Catorii as he spoke. "Nice thinking," He barked, happy with any amount of help or suggestions as this would be a tricky war.

Atra

The dark warrior had remained silent, her eyes narrowed. It was war and she'd finally get revenge on those Ronoh filth. Her blood was boiling and she paced back and forth, eager to finally leave but it seemed to be taking too long for the wolves to go. Why were they so hung back by their mates? She wasn't. At that thought, Atra turned her slim head around and looked for her own. She snorted before turning to her alpha. "Dawn will be over shortly, are we planning on surprising them or holding this off once more?" She asked, harshly. She was still disappointed that Zorr hadn't chosen a head warrior yet and made Eli the back-up call.

She snapped as her hummingbird whizzed around her head, before swatting it with her wings. She turned and noticed Vishu, giving him a hard stare as he got really soft near the new wolf. He better not turn out soft, she had trained him better than that.

Kuro

The inactive dark wolf stirred and groggily awoke, something deep down told him it was about time to be awaken. He stretched out his limbs and made his wingspan go full out. His muscles were weak with atrophy after no use and he slowly rose up, fumbling every so often. There was no sight of his parents, but he could tell they had been there for their scent was present. He walked outside, hoping to avoid his parents. Not like they cared for him anyway.

Kuro slowly padded on the outskirts as he noticed the commotion farther down. Through his veins, curiousity rung true, and the dark wolf padded down toward them, catching brief words.

"War?" He asked, his eyes giving a malicious glint. Ronoh, he wanted to fight!

Atra

She turned as her son woke up, giving him a cold stare. "No, you are staying. You're not trained. Stay home. I order it." She snapped at him.

Kuro

He rolled his eyes at his mother, as much as he hated to admit it. With his current state, he'd stand a little chance. Fine, he'd listen to her this once. Kuro felt resentment grow in his belly, he just wanted to be free from her orders and listening to wolves. He needed to get away, it was edging on him.

Zorr

Zorr was shocked at Kuro's appearence followed by Atra's harshness. However, his long-time friend was right. They needed to get a move on it. Zorr gave a deep nod. "Yes, we should start heading out." He replied grimly.

Kou gave a hard glare at Eli as she was forced to stay home, but let it go as she couldn't help but frown. "Eli, I think it is best that an experienced helper goes out to the forest. Then, if we lose me atleast Sera has a young healer to train," she said logically. Glancing at Nora, she frowned. The female really wanted to help, but Kou was the Healer and didn't want her job taken from her. She sat down in a huff. Hearing Zorr call for leave, she snuggled ip into Eli, one last time. Frail bones pushed against his strong ones, and she whispered. "I know you will return. I believe in you. I love you Eli," she said, looking up at him.

Kanji grinned as Zorr announced it was time to go. He stood. The shape shifter lifted a paw and it changed into a birds claw. With his other three, he Lept into the air and shape-shifted into an eagle. The male flapped to the ground, talons extended. "I will take a look at their location before the attack," he stated simply. Not waitin for an answer the male tried not to waste time and flew towards Ronoh.

Shinraisei
~+~
Gazing forlornly towards the group, Rai felt them begin thier way to invade Ronoh. The breeze picked up, sending his blessings over the warriors. 'Please be safe, Atra...' He begged to whatever spirit would listen to him. Maybe his father and mother were up there, maybe they'd protect his mate. He couldn't lose her again...

His form stiffened as something new came up on the wind, someone that he had not smelled for a good two years. Slight limp in his step, the white wolf padded foreward, pace quickened to match his heart. But... when he got to where his son was, he stopped a ways off, head low in dissapointment-not with Kuro, but with himself-perhaps he should have asked Tyson to help him, and not his mate...

But despite all he felt, the old wolf made no move. Kuro had the fight to choose, and it was up to him to make the first move.

Apollo
~+~
Taking a breath, the fire wolf began a soft trot after the others, tail swishing at his side. He could feel the sun on his back, and felt his power begin to return. If Ronoh knew anything, it was that he was comming, and he might very well burn down the forest.
