Gron eyed the small wolf and started to circle her. Small meant fast, no match for him speed wise. He'd have to tire her out if it came to that. "Where's your pack girly? I can smell them on you, yet here you are..alone. One can't be to careful when they're alone, it's a dangerous world after all. Full of unsavory creatures who prey on the weak and we wouldn't want that to happen now would we?" Gron gave a slight chuckle then continued, "Go ahead, leave." ____________________________________ Shadows strike at the herd was calculated, and after a short while he managed to split a large elk towards him. From where he waited he got ready to spring. Everything slowed down as the elk got closer, it's heart beating even quicker, its breath staggered. It seemed like forever and then reality came back. Ulfang exploded from his spot launching himself into the air, straight for it's neck. In one quick motion, he brought the elk down upon its side, still on it's neck he ripped out the jugular. He looked up at the sky, mouth bloody and gave out a howl.

"I don't need my pack to take you on, big guy. And if you make a move on me I swear Ill put you through hell." Wildflower clenched her jaw and started to back away, eyes still on the male wolf. She watched his muscles, to see if they tensed, if he did anything she would be ready for it. She wanted to go home, but she didn't let the fear get through to her. S

Leila felt her ears pick up a howl making her stop in her tracks from the cave. One of them must have caught one, she let out a soft whimper when she ran off for no reason. She was being a idiot for just leaving cause of that. She needed to apologize to Wildflower, but her snapping made Leila want to growl. So she turned towards the place she heard the howl and ran towards the direction, the howl sounded familiar. Once she got there, she saw a elk at Ulfang's feet unmovable and blood pouring. It made her let out a soft growl as she looked at the blood. But she shaked her head to calm down then said, "Nice catch Fang."

"I don't need my pack to take you on, big guy. And if you make a move on me I swear Ill put you through hell." Wildflower clenched her jaw and started to back away, eyes still on the male wolf. She watched his muscles, to see if they tensed, if he did anything she would be ready for it. She wanted to go home, but she didn't let the fear get through to her. S

Gron laughed menacingly, "You don't know the meaning of Hell, girl." His red eyes blazed with hatred as he inched closer to her. " On the contrary, if there is anything you should know, its fear. Fear of what I could do to you, if you don't take my offer and run." Gron growled again. _________________ "Leila? What are you doing here I thought you went home..?" Ulfang asked her.

Leila looked at him, her eyes filled with guilt then they showed no emotion "I came to say sorry but it seems like Wild isn't here", she let out a soft whimper but straightened out a bit looking at the dead elk then back at him, "And I was heading home but I want to hunt." She couldn't say anything good which made her eyes narrow.

Wildflower peered deep into the wolf's eyes. There was something he was afraid of, there had to be. She didn't want to know what that was, and started to back away faster, now at a steady walk. "But do you really want me to run? Because I think you want a fight, deep down you want to brag that you took out a wolf half your size. Don't you?" She snickered in return, and bared her teeth.

"Brag? Brag about killing a wolf half my size, when upon this same day two have already fallen against me? No, I think not my dear. I shall not tell you again. Run or die." Gron said menacingly, while walking closer still. _______ "Hmm." Ulfang eyed Leila suspiciously for a second, but went back to his normal stare. "Go ahead and hunt, but I'm not sure what you will find. I'm afraid we ran all the elk out."

Wildflower thought about Ulfang and Shadow, a pang of regret in her mind. What had happened to them? "I'm glad you are so merciful." She sneered, a sarcastic quip that rolled off her tongue instantaneously. "But I think this is all the time I'll give you today, goodbye." And with this, she turned and ran at breakneck speed, hoping to get far away from the old coot.

Leila watched the look of suspicion he gave her which made her tilt her head, "Why did you give me that look tho? Did I say something wrong?" She looked away shaking her head, "Never mind. If I find anything I'll take it and bring it back." She said softly as she ran away from the smell of blood. She couldn't say what was in her mind. Not yet. She can't tell anyone yet, she shakes her head as she ran faster.

While Ulfang and Leila were talking, Shadow had slipped off and killed a smaller Elk, and dragged it over to them. "Well, we have two now."

Dodger stopped and doubled back running straight at Autumn before jumping over her at the last second

Autumn scrambled to a stop before whirling around and racing after Dodge. She pushed her legs as fast as they would go and leaped at him, managing to tap him with her paw. "You're it!" With that she whirled again and took off across the clearing.

Dodger quickly ran off after Autumn easily catching up but as she quickly stopped Dodger kept going...into a tree.

Autumn paused, hoping Dodge was okay. She trotted over to him, sniffing him over to make sure he wasn't hurt.

Dodger quickly got up and nipped her ear" your it!" he runs off towards the den.

Jenna continued her search for a temporary home while keeping a look out for a wolf she thought may be a pup-killer. Jonas observed his surroundings while following beside his mother.

Fang was about to say something more to Leila but she was already gone. He shook his head and spotted Shadow. Ulfang nodded at him as he brought another elk. "Good, we'll be set for a while at least. Alright, we're loosing daylight fast, let's get these suckers home." With that said Ulfang grabbed its leg by his mouth and began to pull in the direction home. What a feast they would have to boast about. Ruka would be proud and the pups would see what wolves were truly capable of. However he also was worried for Wildflower and Leila. It seemed a rift had opened between them and unless they reconciled, it would only deepen.

Leila was far enough away from all the other wolves now, so she finally let her hunger for bloody meat to fill her mouth. She felt her claws dig into the soil as she breathed heavily. Her eyes held a glint of hunger but only lightly. She was still under control on her crazy side not wanting it all the way. After standing there making sure the hunger wasn't taking over badly, she stormed away to find some meat. She licked her teeth as she imagined the meat she would eat. She only slowed down when she would hear something and thought it was something to eat. After a few minutes, she stopped at a small lake when she spotted a small group of deer. She grumbled when it wasn't elk but it was still food and she only needed one. So she slowly lowered herself so they wont see as she sneaked into the bushes. She watched them move around and drink from the lake. Her crystal blue eyes focused on one of them that was next to the lake. So right when the deer she was staring at stopped drinking, she jumped in the air. But to scare them. She wanted to run and this is how she got it. They all ran in fright to get away from Leila, but her eyes stayed on the same deer. So when the deer ran away in a direction, she followed. She loved the way she ran after her anyone for some reason. It gave her a cleared mind. After a few minutes going a minimum speed, she finally speeded up. So she jumped on the deer, sinking her teeth in its neck as they both fell to the ground. When she hit the ground, she took a chance and sinks in her teeth in deeper then moved her head back ripping the throat out. She licked her teeth spitting out the throat from her mouth. She let out a howl before she grabbed the young adult deer by the leg as she dragged it back to the pack.

After a journey of struggles, the hunters out and about had brought back their kill. They took pride on their work but by this time it was night and the darkness seemed to cling to everything. The night time creatures were out in full force as well.

Leila watched the darkness rise and camouflage her from anything. Her crystal blue eyes were the only thing holding her from anything and hiding clearly. But she loved it, and felt herself growl in happiness at the feeling of the night hugging her. When she reached the pack, she dropped the deer with the rest of the pack. She already ate a bunny and she would get the left overs. If there was any left for her. She wanted the pack to eat first. She let out a huff before turning around heading towards her cave.

Ruka caught the smell of food and stood up on his rock with a smile. "Seems my hunters were successful." He sat back down with a happy expression on his face. ___________________________ Jenna had finally found what appeared to be an empty den. She put her son down behind a bush. "Stay hidden and I mean 'stay'." She then walked over towards the den. She sniffed the ground and the outside of the den. She was making sure no wolf or any other animal claimed this area. Jonas did his best to keep hidden behind said bush. He would have keep from chasing any butterflies for the moment.
