A Friendly Face ((Open))

[CursedErin]

Things were quiet in the area, and the sun was only now beginning to set over the horizon. It was then that a smiling she-wolf placed her paws into the Lunar Meadow. The white and pink colored wolf was humming a song gently to herself as she made her way into the territories of White Wolf Mountain, unaware of what she would find and who she would see. Her name was Maya and she was eager as ever to meet some friendly new faces! 

After a few more moments of walking and not really seeing anything too terribly interesting, the she-wolf stopped in her tracks. Letting out an exhausted yawn, Maya stretched herself out in the middle of the area. Her paws extended outwards and her claws gripping into the ground as she wriggled, popping a few bones and letting out a happy sigh. She stood herself back upright for a mere second before plopping herself down onto her haunches. Her bushy tail swished from side to side as she bent her head down and started to quietly groom herself.

Once she'd get done grooming herself she'd be sure to keep moving onward, perhaps to get a morsel to eat or make a new friend! The thought of making a new friend only excited her and she started to groom her fur hastily, starting from her leg and working herself around her slender frame while she sat in the open.

Flint:
A red male crossed the meadow. His scrawny body silhouetted against the sunset. He was smaller then average, indicating he was either young or just short. He was skinny, his coat was very patchy. The most striking thing about his appearance were his fiery orange eyes. They almost glowed against the dulls of twilight. A large scar also marred his coat, over his ribs and a fierce expression was on his face. His hunger had become too great to ignore, so he was hunting.

Turning his gold eyes to the sound of someone else made him turn his head, the dark ashy color of his face making him seem like a beast. He froze against the sunset, watching. He started stalking closer, fiery gaze fixed on her's. As he got ever closer, his markings and multiple scars became evident. He stopped a few feet away from this she-wolf, charcoal back making him hardish to spot.

Maya at first didn't notice anything out of the ordinary as she continued to quietly and swiftly groom at her fur. Occasionally she bit her teeth into a patch of her fur and pulled, loosening up a knot and freeing it. The she-wolf's ears swiveled at the sounds of a few paw steps. Now that she thought about it, she had a feeling she was being watched! The fact didn't seem to bother Maya at all however, instead she'd smile and raise her head back up as she looked around the meadow. Her pink irises scanned the landscape for a moment until she finally settled them on an irregular black patch.

She tilted her head curiously while looking in Flint's direction. Her muzzle opened up just a little as she inhaled and exhaled,
catching his scent. So there was another wolf there! Maya's ears perked up happily as she shifted her weight around to get onto all four paws. "Hi there~!" She chimed out toward the male. Without waiting for a response to even see if he meant harm to her, Maya was already starting to make her way towards Flint, albeit slowly at first. "How's it going? I'm Maya, nice to meetcha!" She already introducing herself, hoping to make a new friend already and unaware of any potential danger. Although in her eyes everyone was friendly and at least had a good side to them, so she always wanted new friends! The bushy tail behind her wagged excitedly while she eagerly awaited his response, still continuing to make her way towards him.

Flint:
Flint was startled. He cocked his head, ears flopping over slightly. No one had even spoken to him that.. Cheerily. Since Iallo. His fire gold eyes glittering. "Uh.. Uh.... Ah..." He stuttered, his ears going all back. His patchy fur was standing up all over his body. His red coat was full of bald spots, longer patches, and medium splotches of fur.

Flint sat down, looking up at her with his big gold eyes. He was pathetically short, especially for a three year old male. "I.. I'm Flint." He curled his tail over his paws, ears lopsided with one perked and the other flopped over. His charcoal face and various scars showed he had had a rough life. The long scar over his ribs was evidence. How short he was undermined the 'scary' thing for him though unless he was in shadows.

[CursedErin]

The friendly she-wolf seemed to giggle a little at Flint's response, mainly first at his stuttering. She continued her way on towards him, sashaying playfully from side to side until she was just a foot or so in front of Flint. It was there that she would plop her hind quarters back to the ground and seat herself in front of the male. Her white fur seemed to shine the closer she came to him, the pink patches making themselves very apparent. The she-wolf certainly was easy to spot even in the dead of night! Not that she seemed to care.

"Nice to meetcha Flint~ Wait... Did I already say that?" She blinked at him rather stupidly. "Errr, oh well!" She giggled, "What brings you out here Flint? Are you one of the wolves from this place? Or area, or whatever they call it? Wolves White Mountain or something like that?" Maya questioned, seemingly unending as she tried to get a conversation going and hopefully make a new friend in the dark colored and battle scarred male. Her tail flicked from side to side as she patiently awaited his response, smiling the whole time.

Flint:
"Um.. I think you did?" Flint said cautiously. She was chatty, but in a slightly annoying way. "Yha, I'm from the Forests. It's called White Wolf Mountain, and I'm trying to find my way home." Fiery eyes glared at her, and his charcoal tipped tail lashed. His paws had long ago gone numb, but now they felt like they were wrapped in nettles. He noticed that she was very hard to miss, contrary to his dark coloring. He sighed, shifting from paw to paw. It was infuriating to him that they were at the same level when he was very likely older then her. He was three years old for crying out loud! His stomach voiced that it was still hungry thankyou very much, and Flint sighed. "Look, I help you,
you help me. I'm looking for some food, if we find any, I'll let you have half." Compared to this she-wolf, he had a vary sinnical view of the world.

[CursedErin]

Maya swished her tail happily around behind her, the smile on her face never once leaving as she waited for Flint's response, and then listened to it eagerly. It was almost as if she could tell he was getting slightly annoyed by her energetic chatting, the glare being a dead give away and the sigh not helping her case any. Of course as he offered to help her, in exchange for her own help she didn't see any point in turning it down!

"Ooh! Of course, I'd be glad to help you out Flint, perhaps you could teach me some more about the area too? I-I'll leave that up to you though." She said, finishing with a bit of a child-like giggle. The she-wolf certainly wasn't the best hunter, but if it meant making a new friend, she'd certainly do her best!

Flint:
Flint nodded. His fiery eyes then went to looking around. As the sun set, the flowers around the valley started to glow. Flint jumped a foot in the air. "F.. Flowers... Glow!!!!!!" He stumbled back, looking at the flowers in surprise. They illuminated his red coat and ashy patterns. In the pale light cast by the flowers he looked very strange, and his fiery golden eyes glittered. "Wow..." He was almost lost in the beauty, then his stomach rumbled and he was reminded of what he was doing.

Focusing, Flint noticed a rabbit. He lowered himself, watching it's every move. He also kept a ear on the overly cheerful pup. He didn't want her scaring the rabbit.

[CursedErin]

Maya blinked with a confused look at Flint as he stumbled back and exclaimed that the flowers were glowing.
At first she thought he was being strange, up until she turned around anyways! Immediately her eyes went wide at the beautiful sight of the glowing flowers. "Ooooh! They're pretty!" She exclaimed excitedly. Unlike Flint, her stomach hadn't distracted her from the gorgeous looking flowers and she was soon rushing her way over towards one of them.

It was true she acted more like a pup than and adult every now and again, but she was still well of age. Of course her actions didn't quite speak out that way as she plucked one of the flowers out of the ground and then held it up between the toes of her paw. Once she had a good hold of it, she lifted it up and placed it on her head and beside her ear, letting it lay there. It was difficult for her to see it, but she could still see the faint glow from atop her skull. Satisfied with her new accessory, she started to make her way back to Flint, before blinking stupidly at him once more as she noticed him lowered down. Once Maya realized he was aimed at the rabbit nearby, she'd tense up a little and follow his motions, sinking herself down closer to the ground. For once she seemed to be silent, biting against her lips while she watched the male curiously.

Flint:
Flint watched the rabbit with wrapped attention. Stalking closer, he tensed. Eyes flicking to the pup for a second to make sure she didn't do anything, he lunged. The rabbit looked up, surprised, then started running away from Flint's claws. It escaped for one leap, but Flint trapped it in the second leap by accident. He had stumbled and had to catch himself, launching into another stride. He triumphantly held up the rabbit, his smile wide. "I cught it!" Flint called triumphantly, (Muffled by the rabbit in his mouth) fiery eyes bright. He trotted back with a accentuated step, as proud as if he had caught a deer by himself. He lay the rabbit down between the two of them. Flint was one who kept his word. "Now, we can eat!" His goofy smile showed a cheerful side of Flint, one not often seen.

Proceeding to dig into the food, Flint ate like he was starving. Still, he restrained himself to half. A promise was a promise.

[CursedErin]

Maya was ready to help Flint, though by the time she had blinked he was already on top of the rabbit! Soon enough he wrestled it down and before she knew it the rabbit was dead as could be. She'd sit herself back up, deciding not to stay close to the ground now as he called back to her, exclaiming his catch and then soon bringing it to her to eat. The she-wolf giggled a little at him, still smiling as ever as she watched him eat away happily at the rabbit.

She'd bite into it some as well, though she only ate about a quarter of the rabbit before nudging the last bit towards Flint. Her tail curled around on top of her paws while she raised a paw up to adjust the flower on her head, making sure it was staying perfectly in place. "So... What brings you out here besides hunting Flint? Anything in particular?" The younger adult asked, satisfied with the flower's placement once more and letting her paw settle back onto the grass.
