Wolves By Night IC

[willow02]

((Okay, at last XD We're gonna start at night if that's alright. Also, the wolves are gonna communicate via mind link/ telepathy. If that's a little too "Twilight" then let me know and I can change it ))

Willow slunk through the trees, white wisps escaping from her nostrils as she panted. She had been stalking a little white rabbit. Not for food, just for fun. If she had wanted food she could have killed one of the many other species of animals that lived in the forest. Her coat glistened with dewdrops, left over from the rain an hour before. Willow stepped in a puddle, and lifted her paw out, shaking the water off idly. She peered at her reflection, admiring her fur, her sharp teeth, her able ears.

Willow suddenly noticed that she was absolutely alone. She wondered where the rest of the pack were. She cocked her head, listening. Not too far away, she could hear a familiar animalistic breathing. She lifted her head to the moon and let out a howl, just loud enough for the nearby wolf to hear.

((I know it's not very long, but it ought to start this thing off, right? xXx))

They wouldn't stop. The voices in his head everytime he turned. They got louder as he closed in on the steel bolted door in front of him.
Lucas has only been in town for a week but every night, he has gone down to his cellar, chained himself up and trapped himself.

His anger issues were getting worse. During every change, Lucas has been consumed by his inner rage and has tried to kill before. That is why he locks himself up, to spare the lives of the innocent.
Tearing at his chains, he howls and barks and claws but he cannot break free even though he doesn't want to, he just can't help himself.

The howls of other wolves were filling his ears. He wanted to know them, by any means at his disposal.

The sound of animal pawns plowing through the sound whispered through the woods. Heavy breathing escaped every wolf's mouth. The leader, a big, brown female, slowed as she heard a howl. The prey they were after was close; no more running after her scent, they would have to stalk. With a mind of its own, the pack spread out and began to surround the single wolf.

A pair of orange eyes locked onto her's. The brown female let a snarl rip through the cold air as she leapt at the wolf. There were stories, meant only to scare children, of wolves killing you if you wondered into the forest alone. For werewolves, these stories could very well be real.

Kallie ran through the trees of the forest. She did this every night. Starting at the edge of town, she'd run as fast and quickly as she could for as long as her lungs and muscles could handle. It usually took her away from the rest of the pack, but she didn't mind. Slowing to a stop, Kallie huffed. Farther than yesterday! she thought happily, shaking herself to rid her coat of the rain that had passed a while ago. Somewhere back the way she had come, she heard a low howl. Kallie could tell the howl belonged to the Alpha. Lifting her mussle, closing her eyes, she howled back to the Alpha. Mostly out of respect, but also because the Alpha was calling the closest wolf, and for all she knew, she could've been. After finishing her answering howl, Kallie wastched the white puffs her breath made. She slowly started walking back toward town, and the Alpha's howl.

Lexi could feel the soft ground sinking slightly under her paws. The wet dirt and grass rose between her toes, chilling her. She stood rigidly as her blue eyes swept a hard gaze over the surrounding area.

Her ears were pricked, awaiting any sound. The pack was seperated and she needed to be extremely careful. Alone, she'd have no one to save her neck if she made a false move.

Her nose flinched as she took in the musky odor surrounding her. Cool, white puffs escaped her nose silently. She nearly sat when she heard a howl from her Alpha, the sound was straight ahead. She barely heard the answering call from another member. She carefully took a few steps forwards. Extending her neck and raising her head only slightly she gave her answering cry.

She stood hesitantly before begin to pace somewhat nervously. She anxiously waited her alpha's reply, if it ever came. Should she find her leader? Was it necessary? Did her alpha need help? She tensed and sat slowly, listening for the call.

Another night, she wasn’t allowed to go out this night either. She already took her day for the week, trying to go out again would result in her getting.. punished. She winced and tensed at the thought. But there was nothing she could do with herself as long as she was under contract. The metal tray, clasped between her fingers was steady as she walked down the fall to the Master Bedroom. She stopped at a window, her favorite window. Every night, at the right time it had the perfect view of the moon rising above the tree line of the forest. She started to doze at the site, the tray and it’s contents started to slip.

“HELANIA!”

She caught herself from losing her handfuls. “C-coming!” And immediate “What did you say?!” a short and shaky pause “Coming, Master..!” she responded to the man. A gluttonous laugh could be heard after her response. She continued walking and bumped open the door with her rear. “Whatsit this time?” She walked over to the fat man’s bed and unfolded the metal legs to the tray and placed it over her lap.

“Roast Beef, medium rare, sautéed with a light garlic sauce, breaded. Sided with a Potato, baked, covered in goat cheese, buttered and topped off with chopped basil from the garden. Drink: Tea, Earl Grey.”

Her response sounded so formal as she fixed up miscellaneous things around the large bedroom, the only bedroom in the house. She walked back over to the bed “Would you like me to fluff your pillow, Master?” The man gave her a fat wicked grin. “Why yes, I would.” As the man leaned forward she grabbed the pillow, her wrist was snatched with stubby fingers. Her hand tensed. “I feel that more than dinner is in order for tonight.”

Her face showed remorse, fear and pain. She didn’t went to, but she had to. She gave a regretful sigh and nodded. “Of course.. Master.”

((Met, I'm confused; are the pack surrounding Willow?))

[The Xtreme One]

Lucas' blood was beginning to boil. His strength was increasing and his resistance was failing. There it was, he finally gave in to his animalistic tendencies. He rushed forward and broke free of the cold silver chains that he had wrapped himself in. It wouldn't take him long to break down the bolted door and then rush into the forest.

His pitch black paws were now stained withg brown as Lucas sprinted through the muddy marshes. He was swift, incredibly so. Of the other wolves he had met in the past, Lucas was always the quickest.
He halted in his tracks, the voices, they were now the loudest they had ever been. He was close to a pack, soon enough their individual scents became apparent.

With one last inhalation of the various smells, Lucas took off once more into the damp forest.

“This is the night!” Kristina snarled happily to herself out loud, as she ran beside the Beta Wolf of the pack. It seemed that she was in a good mood for tonight’s hunt, mainly because of the rare treat they could get tonight, another Wolf. Her mouth salivated as her bearing teeth went cutting through the cold night air. They suddenly came to a halt, a howl bellowed through the wind and it wasn’t far, not in the least. Kristina’s ears rotated back and forth, pinpointing the sound. She stood defensively at the sound, legs apart, head bowed slightly and throat rumbling out a low growl when her Leader leapt at the new found wolf.

“Rip her throat out!” She snapped out.

~~~~~~~~

Sullivan always thought Kristina always got too far ahead of herself when it came to these things, she was far too excitable, but that didn’t make him point it out to her out loud. He knew what would happen if that was the case, he would get himself into a nice scuffle with her, not that he didn’t mind. But while on the hunt, it would just be a problem that would be dealt with by the Alpha or Beta. The howl past through his ears as well, he too, came to a stop. Head up high and ears perked, he tried to locate where the sound came from as well.

Sullivan merely stood and watched unblinkingly as his leader went in for the kill. Sitting down, tail coiled around him right side.

Lucas pulled his head from the ground and licked the deers blood from his teeth. He glanced at the corpse with a snarling smile. His ears propped up as he heard the call of the pack. There was no mistake, they were tracking something, if not him then something else. This development enticed the blackhearted Lucas. Taking on last bite of deer flesh, he swifly turned and ran deeper into the shadow covered forest.

"This should be interesting" He thought to himself. "I was beginning to think nothing fun ever happened in this town" With great agility, Lucas leapt over a running river and halted once more to gather his bearings.
