Pantalaimon - Stardust Vale Pack
The tension that had built in Pan eased out of his joints as sequoia backed up towards him, he wagged the tip of his tail. He turned his head towards her, taking her weight with ease as she leant against him, he nuzzled her neck comfortingly. He was undeniably proud to call her his pack mate, this moment just reminded him why. “Good job...” He murmured, his ears flicking back as he felt her sit down next to him panting lightly. His eyes returned to the alpha’s as they conversed among themselves, he looked over his shoulder at Snow laid behind him briefly before he looked back round. So much talking...
Pan’s ears flickered as he heard a snippet of sound off to his left, his ears pricked towards the source and his head perked up eyes narrowing in on a large black wolf that was thundering towards the alpha’s. His muscles contracted and he braced himself ears pinning back against his skull as he waited for the inevitable attack, he was surprised as the wolf pulled up next to the alpha’s he could make out most of their conversation. He watched Farkas approach them, his eyes focusing on the alpha’s shoulder as he circled to his side, before moving over to Snow. He listened to the Alpha’s words, completely unsure about his closeness to Snow.
Wait Snow had a brother? Pan’s ears pricked towards Shadow as he looked him over, from then on things seem to move fast, Farkas accepted them into his lands. Pan couldn’t believe it...for a moment he was to stunned to process it, hot relief flooded the young wolfs tired body. He glanced at Sequoia catching the look she gave him before she shook her head...Glad she’s as confused as I am He turned sharply as Snow yelped, about to react when a large black wolf beat him to it, scooping Snow onto his back. He flicked his ears back uncertain of this new development, he guessed he’d have to get used to his pack mates being around these other wolves he turned to see Sequoia stretching beside him, catching the wolfish grin he wagged his tail at her, shaking his coat out in attempt to ease some of the tension out of his muscles.
He cast another glance at Farkas before he spun on the spot taking off after Sequoia with a burst of energy he closed the distance between them keeping in step with her as they raced back towards their pack. Hmph, I knew it He thought smugly as they soared past a few of the Wintersmoon pack. He kept up with Sequoia no longer possessing the energy to push himself any further, he had wounds he needed to treat still plus the day had been long and bitter.
Wolf Bane - Stardust Vale pack...Pantalaimon collab
Bane paced in front of his pack, unsettled by the sounds of howls by now he had moved over to Rose in an attempt to calm her ease he had sat beside her resting against her. He was too alert to allow himself to lay down it would not have been right...He whined low in his throat lowering his head and nuzzling her neck affectionately. “Not long now...it’ll be ok” He murmured, though there was a hint of doubt in his words though which he couldn’t mask try as he may. His ears pricked forward as he heard the distinct noise of panting he leapt forward rather suddenly lip raising in a snarl until he caught the scent of his beta’s he relaxed his stance jumping forward to receive them, looking from one to the other expectantly. “Bane” Pan lowered his head respectfully submitting to his alpha, there was no hesitation there. “Sequoia has convinced them to allow us into their territory” He grinned wolfishly at his brother, his tail wagging in his mind that was how it had went he wasn’t sure the family reunion had played much of part except for reinforcing what his fellow beta had already done. “Thank you Sequoia” Bane breathed in relief very briefly nuzzling the beta’s neck before butting his brother’s cheek with his head. “You played no part in this?” Bane chastised him before turning to look over at Dakota nodding his head as if signalling something.
Pan looked a little sheepish as he lowered his head, pinning his ears back. “I did not brother...I was not myself” Pan apologized in a low murmur, looking up as Bane grumbled at him before turning away. “Everyone we’re moving out, our beta’s have been successful!” Bane announced to his weary pack. “Come on, lets see what this pack has to offer us” He decided on saying, turning back to his beta’s his eyes passed over both of them. “Where is Snow?” He asked, thre was a slight danger to his tone he wasn’t overly happy with the hunter for disregarding him and rushing after his beta’s. He was deeply displeased by the fact such an action could have potentially doomed his pack and meant death for his beta’s. Pan looked up at him noting the danger in his voice. “Let it go Bane, she was overly concerned for us and it worked in our favour. Snow’s brother is among the Wintersmoon pack...their reunion fortified Sequoia’s work” Pan assured his brother, he was rather insistent on voicing his views of Sequoia it seemed.
After watching the thoughtful expression cross Bane’s face Pan was content that Snow was safe from his fury. Bane waited long enough to hear Sequoia’s recount of what had happened and any other comment she passed his way. “Would you please lead the way for now” Bane told Sequoia, though he didn’t give her much of a chance to reject his order neither to respond to it before he turned away making his way to the back of the pack as they set off towards Wintersmoon territory.
By now Dakota had moved over to Tarkutt and had gripped one of the vines he had attached to the bark firmly within his teeth, his eyes watched his mate guide her pups towards the alpha, he looked grateful as Pantalaimon trotted over to him taking the other vine in his teeth between the pair of them they were able to drag the bark. “Keep an eye on her Tarkutt, we’ll get her there in one piece” Pan told the healer as they tugged Artemis down the slope.
Bane padded over to Rose who was buried in the snow he butted his head against her side. “Come on love, it’s time to go” He murmured, if she didn’t stand up he pushed an obtrusive nose underneath her just behind her arm pit and lifted her up forcing her to her feet. “I’m sorry about earlier...I let my temper get the best of me” He apologized his ears drooping as he looked at her, before casting a gaze at his pack as they moved towards uncharted territory. “I’ll make it up to you somehow...but for now I really need you to help us, I need to speak with this alpha and I think Tarkutt could really use your help” Bane spoke softly to her nudging her in an attempt to make her move forward. “I know you can do it” He offered her a wolfish grin, an expression he didn’t offer to many people. “I’ve got to catch up to Sequoia come on” He encouraged further, trotting after his pack hopefully with her by his side.
It only took a few moments for the packs to meet, Bane had taken the lead way before they crossed the territory line his alpha scent would have warned them of his presence way before he was seen. Of course once he reached the place Pan, Sequoia and Snow had stood before he allowed his presence to be known, standing tall with his tail lifted and head high was enough to demonstrate Wolf Bane was not a force to be trifled with though nothing about him was threatening.
“Farkas alpha of the Wintersmoon pack and Evie Luna of the Wintersmoon pack, I am Wolf Bane alpha of the Stardust Vale pack. I offer my deepest gratitude to the hospitality you have shown my pack and wish extend my greeting...though I will speak with you further I ask my pack be shown to a safe place, we have injured wolves that require immediate attention and tired pups that are in need of a safe place to sleep” Bane spoke confidently, though his woods seemed to be his own despite the name he had taken Pan’s advice on a diplomatic entry.
