[u]Stardust Vale- Tarkutt[/u] Tarkutt crouched slightly in submission and flattened his ears, nodding gratefully at the respected alpha. "Thank you. It is much needed." After looking over the wounds on Artemis, he nodded again. "I think that some bleeding will be inevitable when we move her, but we can minimize the bleeding. If you are ready, so am I." He was really glad for the help; Tarkutt was most likely an exception to the general rule that male mammals weigh more than females. His ears swiveled toward the sound of another howl, and although he recognized Pan as the source of the sound, it still made him uncomfortable. He forced himself to focus on the task at hand and worry about contact with another pack later. "Alright, best to do it while she's not awake." He lifted up the wolf by some of the fur on her back. [u]Winters Moon- Yehki[/u] "Other pack?" came the drowsy, garbled voice of Yehki as she rose to her feet and shook the snow out of her fur. She glanced nervously around, sitting on her crooked tail so no one would see it. She'd just woken up, roused by the sound of a strong howl that came from a stranger. It had made her shudder and whine as she woke. Not knowing what was going on, she assumed this meant that someone wanted the ideal territory of the Winters Moon Pack. That would mean that a fight was inevitable. A fight would mean that Yehki would most likely be a casualty. Worry made her want to crouch and hide in the snow like a pup. [i]Knock it off, Yehki. If you can hunt, you can fight.[/i] She stood a little taller, her paws spreading out on the snow like big, clumsy snowshoes, and puffed out her chest. She also raised her tail proudly, but no matter how high she raised the first half, the second half always angled down a little bit. She hated this.
