New Wolf Era

Mizuki couldn't stop smiling as she watched Eziek and listened quietly. She flicked her tail, feeling the last of her stolen elements drift away as she hadn't had  contact with others in awhile. A need to grab Masika's element was evidant, but she couldn't do so anymore. Giving a soft smile, Mizuki closed her eyes and listened, picturing litte Eziek bouncing around as a young pup. Opening her eyes, she saw now not a pup, but a wonderful grown male. And, not to mention, he now had someone with potential. Oh, the thought of becoming a 'grandmother' overwhelmed her, and her face flushed with excitement. Although, that wouldn't be any time soon, she presumed. The wind was picking up; it couldn't be spring anymore. "Join you?" Her thoughts were put to a hault as he explained their travels. She took a moment to look over her much more frail body. "I would love to join you two young lovers." Mizuki smiled, giving a nod. "But I am not what I used to be. I may struggle to keep up, and, I wouldn't want to hold either of you back..." She offered a sympathetic look, one that wanted him to sincerely think about her tagging along. She didn't want to ruin any moments the two had in mind, and especially not ruin them.

Tork

He looked up, he hadn't even noticed how dark it was. Oh well, in the time he had spent alone the days and nights had bleneded in together. He just slept where he fell. Thinking about it now though he wasn't all that tired at all. But Amari might be. "Thinking about turning are you? Unless, of course you want to go be up to no good. I can deal with both."

Amari gave a silent shrug. Too many questions, and it was well past her bed time. She laid down and rented her head on her paws. "Oh, I don't know." She said, in a sleepy tone. "I can't quite decide right.." She paused to let loose a yawn. "..now" looking at Turk, she offered a soft, yet peaceful smile before allowing her eyes to drift shut.

((I'll post for Eziek next, just needed to get Kuro in quickly))

Kuro

Shadows errupted amongst the sandy grounds, quickly retracting and almost spitting out a crimson wolf from it's cold depths. The sun was too much for the wolf for it killed any shadows that helped guide him into a sizzling, hissing mass. Kuro wiggled his toes around in the uncomfortable soil. He was born and raised in the forested and meadowed Sera, never touching sand before in his life. All he knew, Kuro hated this place automatically.

"Now, where is that annoying pest?" Kuro snarled, whipping his head back and forth to try and locate Amari. His shadows had guided him here and he needed to do the rest of the searching. Kuro licked his dry lips and wondered how it managed to get a tad bit warmer here than in most locations. The darkness wolf stalked around along the uneven landscape, his helper fluttering just above his head as if Nieva would help. Though, she knew better than to inturrupt Kuro's search for she knew that Kuro tended to disregaurd his helper one too many times.

Noticing a special glint off in the distance, Kuro was curious as what it was. Amari had metallic parts, it could possibly be her. He paraded over here before noticing that the large, lumbering wolf was resting near some strange masked wolf. Kuro growled, lowering his head to allow his spine to bristle. He spat a small shadow ball at Amari, not aiming to hurt her but just to rouse her.

"Wake up, princess. I'm taking you back to Sera. Don't make it harder than it is." Kuro spat at her, his wings expanding out fully and gave a couple of flaps as if he could take off. However, he knew he'd always be grounded to this world as they were as flightless as the day as he was born.

Tork

His gaze had been up at the sky even when it became morning. He didn't even notice what was going until the stranger wolf had used his little shadow thing to wake up Amari. Tork stared at the male and laughed. A winged wolf, how weird. Considering Amari's reaction to this one's appearance, it seemed the two weren't on good terms. "Hello, Winged Weirdo, nice to meet you. You seem to be in a serious way, but if you cause trouble to my friend, it is with me who you'll have to play." As he spoke, the sand began moving a little around the three of them.

Eziek

The green wolf kept beaming at her, even as she gave a long pause and grew presumably sleepy from the amount of times her eyes closed. Taking a moment to shift himself to curl around Masika more closely as he felt her slow breathing.

His smile slowly started to turn into a thin-lipped line along his broad muzzle. It sounded like she wasn't going to come. Eziek's blue eyes dulled as he watched her. "Don't worry, we don't have much places to be so we can take our time. Besides, do you think Masika could be able to handle all my energy on her own?" He asked, brightening up with a laugh. He nudged Mizuki playfully. In reality, he just wanted to make sure his second-mother was around since that was all he had left. He wanted to make sure he took care of her, protect her, just as he strove to do with Farah. Besides, Masika might enjoy having another female around and wouldn't mind having another set of eyes for protection. He couldn't live with himself if one of his two favorite females died.

Masika

Her eyes seemed to twitch in her sleep as she continued to dream, mumbling something before frantically awakening as the splash of high tide reached her paws. "Wh-Wha?" She looked around, startled by the scene of Eziek so close, and Mizuki randomly by their side. It took her a moment, but she eventually remembered reality, forgetting about the dreams she experienced during the well needed sleep. Trying to control her urge to move and stretch out in hopes of awakening herself, Masika silently sat, now wanting to awaken Mizuki or Eziek, if she hadn't already. The sun was well above what she expected, surprised that it hadn't awoken her sooner. She tried to sheild her eyes by looking to Eziek, giving a small smile as she remembered now why she felt sore; from their running and playing that she hadn't done in a long, long time. then; it hit her. They would be leaving today. Masika bit her lower lip, more nervous than ever.

Mizuki had dreamed nicely and was well rested when she awoke. Turning and letting out a loose yawn, she gave a smile as Masika who seemed to have also awaken. "Good morning." She whispered, not wanting to wake Eziek, although she figured he would be soon to rise like the rest of them. Last night left her with a lot to think about, and today she would have to decide if she was going to travel with the pair or not. Turning to look off in the distance, she saw a brawl seemingly being played out by four wolves, and then Captain in the opposite direction near Enkai. Surely, without these two by her side, she would be alone. Therefore, she made the ultimate decision; to join them.

Kuro

His crimson fur was bristling up at Amari, looking her square in the eyes. A challenging gaze held firmly by the warrior. "And what do you think when a bumbling idoit starts getting too close to those I need to protect. Let them rampage and accidently trample them?" Kuro shot back coolly, allowing his ear to twitch at her beginning words. She had much growing up and understanding to do, acting as if the world was out to get her.

At her insult, Kuro's shadows pooled around him with a hiss. However, he had no rebuttle to it for she was right. He had to protect his pups, yes, but they were also a liability to his potential. Though, she didn't seem to understand that protecting another thing brought more strength and will to fight than just being lonesome. Kuro gave an annoyed sigh, tired of hearing Amari ramble on about something about accepting her or something. He tuned her out, hearing her voice as a low buzz as if a mosquito.

"Done yet?" He asked impatiently. "I don't care about your pathetic wishes. I was sent to recieve you and bring you back to Sera once more. I have better things to do that listen to your whine. So can we wrap up this little session and get on out of here?" Kuro snarled with irritation. The less time spent with these pests, the better.

"Yeah, because me sittin there calmly saying your pups were cute when you attacked - total rampage right there." She said, standing up and glaring at him. "And what if I don't want to go back? What's in it for me?" He stared at him, wanting something out of this. He brought her back, she got nothing, he got praised. He didn't, she still got nothing and he got scolded. "You need me as much as I need you right now. Lets make a deal." A malicious grin formed on her face. "You bring me back, an ill put on a show that you taught me a lesson, and get the Alpha to like you. In return, you train me." She flashed her eyes towards her father, before turning back to Kuro. "You train me, as though I'm your apprentice. I have no teacher now because my dad ended it. I need a trainer. You don't fill out your end of the deal? I'm sure the Alphas won't want to hear what REALLY happened to me on the beach." She grinned, and suddenly fell to the ground. "oh, oh Alpha Zorr. I didn't want him to touch me, but he grabbed me, and it hurt.. It hurt so badly." She peered up at him, a twinkle in her eyes. "And he took advantage of me." She grinned. "Said I felt better than his own pups mother." Amari gave a wild grin, knowin this bribery.. Slash deal, would get her the training she needed. Standing tall, Amari glared at Kuro withan extremely serious look, waiting for his response.

Amari

She turned and glared at Eli. "You disallow it, and I'm out of your damned life." She said. "You never train me, you think I want to sit around and not learn anything? All you do is sleep, and yell at me." She said, "So, this is none of your business." She wasn't about to let her plan get ruined. "Eli. You say anything? Consider me as good as gone. You like Nora better anyways - She's the better daughter, so win win, huh?" She said, eyes pinned on him. She wanted Kuro to train her more than anything, and she'd get it, one way or another. Even if she had to kidnap a pup, and leave Sera for good with it. Kuro'd be there in a heart beat.

Masika

The female was quiet as both wolves spoke, both to her and to each other. She didn't want to reply, as she knew her fate already as it was. These last moments were spent reminising on her old friend, Gus. She stood, releasing herself from the much enjoyed warmth of Eziek, as she trailed out towards the sea. Masika brought herself to stand up to her chin in water, kicking every once in awhile to avoid going under because of a wave. The sea was hard to say goodbye too, but Masika did her thing, and eventually left the water after the hug she had received from the ocean.

"I will miss it here, but I must continue my life. Gus always told me to live life for the fullest, and I believe it is possible if I continue on with my friends." She said quietly, looking out to the forest.

She was ready. 

Fern

She returned to the beach after once again venturing off on her own. The small earth wolf started to walk down to the sand. She loved how it felt under her paws. She decided to go feel the water, she walked down to the shore and stuck her paw in. It wasn't to cold so she went in to her ankles and splashed around a bit.

Eli

His large bulk hit the sand but as soon as he felt his daughter may be in danger, adrenaline sped though his body and he leaped out of the sand at the terra wolf. His huge razor fangs bared as his jaws clipped the air infront of the wolf his bulk huge infront of the wolf. His head was lowered to stick his nose right infront of Torks. His neon eyes glared into the wolves and his armor shifted on his body laying flat to protect him. "I don't know who you think you are."

Tork

He gave a hidden, crooked smile the laughed with a happy look rather than intimidated. "Me? I'm Tork. Nice to meet you. Eli is it? You seem very strong." He gets up and walks to the side. He raises a sand  block which he flicks his tail with, turning it to stone. He then stands behind it. "I use to have some daddy issues, but I took care of it the best way I knew how. I still tend to have issues with fathers I hear bad things about. Tell me Miiiister Eli, how much does your daughter mean to you." With that he does a spin and taps the hard stone block with his paw sending it speeding towards the amour wolf.

Eziek

Eziek hadn't noticed when Masika left his side to venture off into the water. Eziek was glancing around, turning to look over to notice the lone palm tree with flora ontop of a sand mound. His mother's resting place. He couldn't believe it was about two years since her passing. He'd miss her here but Eziek knew it was his time to leave.

"You ready?" He asked finally, turning to look at Masika. His eyes grew wide, she was missing. But...she was just there a second ago, where did she venture to? Cold feet? Eziek's ears dropped before noticing her sleek head bobbing in the water before coming back up.

As she approuched, Eziek bent his head over to lick some of her fur clean in an attempt to dry it. "I'll miss it here too, don't worry, we'll come back here once in a while to visit and see what's changed. Now, you won't have to worry about leaving Gus behind. He'll be swimming through the sky now, following you and making sure I keep you safe." Eziek comforted, giving her a soft smile. Even though it was his typical silly grin that was infamous to anyone that had met the gentle, green giant.

"Right, Gus?" He asked, as if talking to her helper and looking at Masika's paws.

Mizuki was quiet, listening to the group as she felt a new, yet familiar set of paws climb up her back. Kirra was never a close contact raccoon, always in the trees, exploring and stealing whatever she could find. The raccoons age was catching up to her, indeed, and he needed to rely on Mizuki a bit more than she used too. Mizuki stood, allowing the raccoon to rest on her back as she gave a sincere smile to the sweet Eziek. "What kind words from a young lad." She smile to the male, eyes full of pride at the closest thing to family she had.

Kurosutora

The darkness wolf shifted around, well well, it seemed she prefered him over her own father. That would surely anger Eli, then again, he seemed busy with Tork and probably didn't hear that. Kuro stared her down, "Ruin my life, I don't give a damn. It might be for the better, but, fine. I shall train you, from my own free will. Better, sweetheart?" He asked, rolling his eyes. "Now, I'd like to get back to Sera now." Kuro spat, turning on his heels and making his way toward the forest. He didn't even care if she was following anymore, but he knew that she would. Kuro felt the bracer around his neck ease, almost as if Rai was proud that he was doing something good, for training this youngster.

Amari sat back, for a moment, and let out a sigh of relif. Had she won? Or was this a dirty trick? Needless to say, she believed him, being foolish and young. "Tork, would you like to join me?" She asked, turning to the male. "If so, you better catch up..!" She grinned, sprinting off towards Kuro, not wanting to give anyone else credit but him, for retrieving her. "Your actions are wise." She said, quietly, walking by the males side, allowing her tail to blow in the breeze.

Tork

Too many wolves for him to want to follow her so he simply swayed side to side and called after her. "Goodbye! Friendly friend, I wonder if we'll meet again." He turned to look at the only who hadn't gone yet. The bad father. "It was nice meeting you. I hope we never see each other again."

Amari grinned at Kuro as he spoke. "Foolish, you say?" She said, allowing her armour to fall into fur as she had to lighten her weight to keep up with the quicker male. "Foolish, I can do that too" she turned and nipped at Kuro on the shoulder blade, a nip of play, as she bounded ahead of him and towards Sera, "Betchya an armour wolf is faster!" The young wolf shouted through the trees, disappearing and headed straight for home, she couldn't wait to see her friends. OOC; continue in Sera? :)

Tork

He sat there, alone, watching the waves roll up to the shore. He subconsiously saw an ocean of blood with bodies floating in it. A side effect of a twisted mind. Dade slowly dragged himself up beside his wolf and was looking around. He soon put on a disappointed look seeing that this was the end of his food trail then looked up to his wolf "Not often you let any wolves go like that, in one piece anyways." Tork chuckles before a sand claw reaches up and removes his mask. All at once, voices flood his head making his left eye tiwtch. "Dade I made a friend, one I didn't feel like killing. One I need some advise on. I also met a bad father who my friend wished for me not to kill. I am... conflicted." Dade nodded and blinked his eyes slowly. It wasn't good when his wolf got conflicted.

Mizuki gathered her helper and continued her waytowards the forest, smiling as she walked by the pair. "Ah Eziek I sure hope you know where we are going," she gave a cheerful and joking smile at the male, seeing the pup in his eyes that she used to be so careful around. This male truly changed her life, had Karma not come along and take Banshee away from her, she may have never met this wonderful male. Approaching the forest, Mizuiki couldn't help but wave her tail farewell. "We will visit again, another day."

Fern


"Oh...Well Okay." She told him, still a little unsure about the strange wolf beside him. "I don't know if we have formally met?...I'm Fern."she told him as she looked at him with her big gold eyes. She then frolicked into the water a bit more. She loved how it felt in her paws, even if it was cold.
