[IC] The Sun and the Shadows. (CallaLily180 and FireHeartWolf)

[FireHeartWolf]

Rudi sat up and he gazed into Sabrina's eyes, staring into them as she walked away. Filled with pity and sorrow, but mainly anger, he got up and sat where he had sat before. Looking around to see if she was watching, he quickly shifted into a wolf and stretched. 3 days was the longest that he hadn't been able to shift to a wolf, so it felt strange to finally become a wolf again. He drifted off, and when his eyes snapped open he promptly shifted to human again. He wasn't sure whether anyone had seen his wolf,but he was convinced they hadn't. He still needed to rest some more, so said a small 'prayer' beforehand.
Muttering he said-
"Hey, Lord, if you are real, curse that Alpha, and make him suffer, or I will! Night."

[CallaLily180]

As Sabrina did her patrols she stumbled across Rudi, in her confusion she yelped and ran in a circle. I need to report him, but I can't. She shifted to human form and still in a slight panic poked Rudi a couple of times.

[FireHeartWolf]

((this is in his Wolf form yes?Or no?))

[CallaLily180]

((No.))

[FireHeartWolf]

Rudi woke once again, slightly groggy and moody. "What?!" He snapped, looking up. He blushed when he realised it was Sabrina. "Yes...?!"

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina jumped and sighed. "What are you doing out here Rudi? Its dangerous." She kneeled down next to him and tried to wake him up a bit more.

[FireHeartWolf]

Rubbing his eyes, he realised he was laying on the dew-dropped grass, shivering as the cold hit his face. "Sorry... I just fell asleep. I wanted to be away from the commotion. I'm sorry I got so angry in front of you and the alpha..." He truly looked pitiful. Hewas sorry. He paused at the sound of familiar voices. But they weren't the voices of the Light pack, they were darker...
Swinging his head around so quickly he made it spin, Rudi stared in alarm at the top of the hill. He saw jet-black paws stepping carefully along the edge. Rising quickly, he took Sabrina's hand and ran.
They'd come...

[CallaLily180]

As Sabrina was pulled along she hit his hand roughly. "What in the world? Stop that Rudi!" She hissed, as she looked up at the hill she shook her head. "What is the matter?"

[FireHeartWolf]

Rudi was slightly trembling from all the pressure and anticipation being forced onto him. Clutching his hand gently, he glared at her, but his expression softened as he said, "You...You wouldn't look at me in the same way again if I told you." He said solemnly. "I don't want to change what we have. I'm not sure- just forget it..." Rudi sounded far away, remembering his spiteful argument with Sabrina before. Before...whatever this was.
"But please, you can't go out there. They'll kill you!"

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina stood there speechless, what was he talking about? Why wasn't he saying anything? She couldn't believe it, this wasn't the Rudi she had kissed, as far as she could tell. "Rudi, please. Why aren't you saying anything? I will understand, who are they?" She took a hold of the hand she had hit and stroked it with her thumb.

[FireHeartWolf]

Rudi looked at her stroking his hand gently. She was so sweet, so loyal... he didn't want her to leave him alone. Not again.
He gazed into her eyes. They were so full of innocence, so full of honesty, unlike his. He was meant to be filled with spite, evil, fearlessness. He was meant to be strong, but without her, he was nothing. What had he changed in her? And was it good?
"They're my pack." Rudi sighed. "I guess it has come to the time you need too meet my family...we live in the shadows..." He hung his head and shifted to wolf, knowing he couldn't keep secrets locked in any longer.

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina felt lied to, she felt as if her pack had stabbed her in the back-no her mate-but in the same fierce way she felt sad, she felt wild, happy, she found that whatever happened he would always be there. "Rudi." She whispers as she gets on her knees and runs her hands through the wolf's fur. "Why didn't you tell me?"

[FireHeartWolf]

Glancing back at the hill, he didn't feel as scared anymore. He figured that was because Sabrina was by his side. "I didn't want to be outcast... I know that I am not allowed to be with you...I wish it was different..." He sighed."I'm guessing you remember what I said the night we met...you aren't...angry? Upset?" He wagged his tail approvingly as Sabrina's fingers brushed his knotted fur, soothing him.

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina shook her head and and started to feel soothed as well, she shifted and wagged her tail licking his muzzle and flattening herself lightly to show that she trusted him, and possibly showed that he still had control. "Of course I'm not angry Rudi, but now you need to go back to them. They are your family and if you don't take this chance they won't forgive you. Goodbye." She whimpered and padded off into the bushes, out of his eyesight but close enough to observe the situation from afar.

[FireHeartWolf]

Rudi watched her go and, when he was sure Sabrina wasn't looking (even though she was) he ran up to his pack, his tail between his legs. He knew there would be dire consequences.
"Rudi!" His mentor shouted as he saw him. He sounded relieved but very stern. "Where the f*** have you been?!" Rudi hung his head low and, in response, said "I'm sorry... I just thought tha-" He was cut off by the Alpha male, the cruellest wolf in the pack.
"You idiot! YOU DIDN'T THINK!! It makes me wonder why I even BOTHER with you Radolph! I DON'T KNOW WHY GOD EVEN CREATED A USELESS WRECK LIKE YOU!" Rudi wanted to cry from embarrassment, from shame, from the terrible feeling of abandonment. No-one wanted him. Alone.
"ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?!" The alpha asked, raging. Rudi promptly looked up at his eyes, red and burning with intimidation. "Because of this, you useless mutt, you will be punished, you hear me? No food for ANOTHER month. And I guess I'l have to lock you up during the daytime too!" Rudi gazed down at his already malnourished structure. As he shifted to human, a tear escaped which he quickly wiped away. Not again he thought Someone save me from this...please... why was I born in the darkness? I don't belong...

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina rushed out from the bushes with her teeth bared, as she growled she pounced upon the alpha and started to roll down the hill with him. "This is your end!" She screamed as she snarled and waited for them to come to a stop.

[FireHeartWolf]

"Sabrina!" Rudi shouted in alarm before clamping his hand over his mouth. Surely they would question how he knew a member of the Light pack. He was doomed...
Shifting to wolf, he ran up to the edge of the hill. Images of the time he'd fallen down it flashed through his mind, the first time he had met Sabrina. No, I can't fall in love with her..! He shook the thought off and ran after the alpha. He started running but a hand grabbed him. He struggled to follow them, watching from afar.

[CallaLily180]

When they got to the end of the hill Sabrina broke away from the alpha and barked her disapproval. She launched forward and manipulated the moonlight to blind him for a second as her teeth bit into his fur.

[FireHeartWolf]

Howling in pain, the Alpha swiped weakly at Sabrina. He closed his eyes for a split-second, and when he opened them again, the air around Sabrina turned a murky green, thick with sleeping poison.
Rudi had finally broken free from the wolf's grasp, and ran to her. He stopped when he saw the poison.

[CallaLily180]

Sabrina whimpered as she fell to the ground asleep, her body went limp and she was whimpering still.
