Epicenter;
There was a glowing of her own tattoo when she redirected the water away from both herself and the other wolf. He was grateful to be rid of the layer of water and felt a little lighter than he had before. There was also warmth growing from the cave harboring three panting wolves. It was also nice to meet other wolves and be in the company of others. He had a hard time running into the pack members of Secluded Sunrise, though he recognized most of their scents and basic identities. She seemed weary after the use of her abilities, but her energy was admirable – as she jumped right back into the conversation, as if there had been no interruption.
“Yes, I can.” He smiled, and his thoughts went momentarily to the extents of his abilities. He was ready for more, to stretch himself – perhaps that was why he had traveled back to the mountain, to remind him where he was and how far he had come… and how far he had yet to go.
He listened to Rhea talk about a new beginning, and he decided he liked this wolf. She seemed innocent and maybe a little naïve, but was that not the definition of a good wolf? Or perhaps just young wolves. There was a sound outside approaching, and his audits twisted backward momentarily, but turned back to the male as he explored his past, and his feelings on how he didn’t want to join a pack and his reasons for this. What really caught his attention was the mention of the Outcast pack. He had heard a couple rumors, and he was curious about what it was about. There was a short silence and he watched as the two young wolves sat close, the female consoling the male. He couldn’t help but smile a little, not that this male had tried to get her sympathies, but he was taking advantage of them. Perhaps he was truly lonely, but Epicenter was not so optimistic.
A wolf entered then, his energy full and bright and he was also absolutely soaked. He stood up, listening to the other two finish their stories, and then looked at the male with a half tilted head in curiosity. He stood defensively, moving a little to allow more room for the stranger. While he knew Rhea and NightHowler did not mean harm, but he was still outnumbered and now there were three, even if this wolf did not belong to the other two.
“Greetings Pan, I would welcome you to stay, but I’m afraid I intruded as well a few moments ago. Rhea? NightHowler?”
He said, directing the male to the other two and away from himself. After a moment Epicenter decided that the male was no threat, and sat once more.

NightHowler didn't know what to do when another male walked into the cave. he knew he could trust them but he didn't like that there was two against him and if he had to he would fight them just to protect her. he tried to hold back a growl but a little one got out so he tried to smile instead and that didn't work. he stared at the new male telling him with his eyes to not mess with Rhea. He bowed his head acting like he trusted this wolf for Rhea then put his head on his paws and sighed.

Rhea:
"Everyone needs a bit of adventure,"
Rhea swiveled around to face the newcomer. There was a flash of lightning, briefly providing Rhea a glimpse at the stranger, as it probably provided for him as well. His coloring was mostly brown and red, his eyes golden. She only saw it for just a few seconds, but Rhea was certain he had a feather woven into his fur. As lightning flashed again, Rhea smiled, so that he could see she wasn't a threat.
"Nice to meetcha, Pan," Rhea said. Epicenter told him he was welcome to stay as long as her and NightHowler were fine with it. She noticed NightHowler growl at Pan, even though he attempted to suppress it. He then bowed his head politely, so he must've trusted Pan enough. He probably just growled because the stranger startled him. Rhea flicked her tail back and forth before saying, "Well, as the original claimer of this cave, I approve of your staying here. So welcome aboard."
Rhea grinned at the ever growing company surrounding her, quite pleased with her new acquaintances. "I never expected to meet so many wolves tonight. It's always nice to make new friends."

Pan;
Everybody seemed polite enough, which allowed Pan to relax fully. He was normally quite an easy going wolf, but one could never really be too careful—especially when there were two males and a female in a relatively small space. But a smile was now in place on his maw. He had not yet shook off his fur, and the water dropped periodically from his fur and feather. Aside from the occasional lightning, the moon passed through breaks in the clouds every now and then, and because his eyes were more adjusted to the darkness by then, Pan took a longer look at the cave dwellers. The large green and brown male seemed complacent enough, supppsedly an intruder just like himself. Pan gave him a broad smile and nod hello. The tall male then asked the others whether or not they thought Pan was allowed to join. While the male growled softly and shifted closer to the female, the latter seemed very pleasant. But Pan's trickster-like instincts had kicked in, and his eyes were focused on Nighthowler. If he had understood the female correctly, each of the other three has come upon her in the cave. That led Pan to believe that even Nighthiqler had intruded, much like himself.
And yet, Nighthowler seemed to want to make it very obvious that Pan was not to harm Rhea. Just by the way he was looking at her and leaning towards her brought a smirk to Pan's face—especially because rRhea did not seem to be reciprocating any sort of romantic thoughts. That would be a very fun thing for Pan to exploit. He cleared his throatt once more and gave his head the tiniest of shakes.
"You seem edgy," Pan said, looking at Nighthowler. His words and tone were not aggressive, for Pan was not an aggressive wolf. He was a jokester and a trickster, and Nighthowler had his interest. "No need to be scared of little old Pan." He looked into Nighthowler's eyes, so clear that he did not want Pan to mess with Rhea. "He really doesn't seem to want me to talk to you, ma'am." He gave her a friendly wink, knowing it would probably bother the male.

Epicenter;
Epicenter was not surprised when NightHowler let out a suppressed growl, unpleased with the new company. He kept quiet though, which was better than when Epicenter had intruded. Perhaps his story telling had left him a little blue. Epicenter considered the male for a moment before letting his eyes wander to the sweet young femme who began to respond in a positive and predictable manner. Perhaps it was just because everyone else was being pleasant, which he also noticed.
Duo eyes turned to the newcomer to see his reaction and even though it was dark, he noticed how quickly he found interest in NightHowler. Was there a glint in his eyes, or a smirk? His tone was not malicious, but it seemed to be poking fun. He couldn’t help, but smile at the male’s jovial nature that came out very naturally and quickly. Water was dripping from Pan’s coat, and he looked even more soaked than Epicenter had when he had come dripping into the cave. The male had not claimed to be seeking shelter from the storm, but to intrude on their gathering. He seemed to have a much more social reason and pull to enter the cave. While it was getting sort of crowded, Epicenter found himself enjoying himself as much as Rhea seemed to be. He was made for a pack setting and being with others, being social himself. It also taught himself about others and their intentions, and it was rare that he would pass up an opportunity like this. Besides, who knew what other information he could gather from the encounter. So, the earthen wolf sat their calmly, glancing amusingly at NightHowler to see what his reaction would be.

NightHowler got up fast when the male named pan talked to him. He saw a glint in his eyes when pan spoke to him so when he got up he growled and went to the wall. He knew Rhea wouldn't want him to fight these wolves because she trusted them and the only way he couldn't fight them was to be away from them. He whined in his corner as he saw pan wink at her but said noting if this wolf wanted her he wasn't aloud to fight so he guess pan could have her. He sighed and thought about why pan wanted to make him feel uncomfortable. Just then he smelled something and got excited a new male entered the cave. DarkHowler smiled when he saw his brother and ran towards him not caring about the other wolves. "brother nice to see you again." DarkHowler said when he got to him. "nice to see you too brother." NightHowler said smiling. His brother could have been his twin if he had more white on him but he was all black with red eyes and a white paw so he had not that much white. He licked his brother and introduced him to everyone. "is that your mate little brother." he said aloud and NightHowler blushed. He knew he should be mad at his brother for killling there parents but they got closer after that. His brother had anger issues so he always acted as friendly as he could. NightHowler walked back to the group looking down and sat by Rhea again but with DarkHowler on his other side.
OOC: srry if you get mad for this wolf I wanted the other wolves to meet his only family the reason why he is the way he is so ya

Rhea:
Pan's comment left Rhea confused. She looked directly at NightHowler, wide eyed and at a loss of words. "He doesn't—" she faltered. "What?" Now she met Pan's eyes, half-heartedly smiling like this was some joke she just didn't get. NightHowler hadn't said anything about Pan or herself. Where had the newcomer gotten that impression?
"Well, why not?" she asked with a small forced chuckle. Her gaze shifted from Pan, to Epicenter, to NightHowler, her startled expression requesting answers from the company. Her head tilted slightly. After some thought, Rhea realized that NightHowler had been acting aggressive. It almost seemed like he was being possessive over her. That was unsettling, and Rhea unknowingly pulled her tail away from the dark he wolf, and wrapped it around her legs.
NightHowler seemed to be giving off a mildly hostile vibe, like a fight was about to break out right then and there between Pan and him. The wild looking he wolf, with his smirk and childish air, Rhea would figure to be just the type to provoke this NightHowler. But rather than lunging at Pan, like Rhea fully expected him to, NightHowler just strode away from the group to a corner of the cave. Rhea glared at Pan. "I think you hurt his feelings," she said accusingly. Even though NightHowler was acting out, she felt bad for him.
Then there was yet another male wolf stumbling upon their gathering. He seemed to ignore everyone except NightHowler as soon as he saw the sulking he wolf. Apparently, they were brothers. So apparently, failing to request permission before entering a cave ran in the family. Rhea made a noise like 'ahem,' begging to be acknowledged. She hated being ignored.
It took her by surprise when NightHowler's brother asked if Rhea was his mate (a) because she could have been any of these male wolves' mate and (b) because she was still in shock of NightHowler's possessiveness over her. "No," she said quickly and firmly, then scared of injuring NightHowler's feelings added, "I mean, I'm sure NightHowler's a great wolf, but we just met, and I'm not really looking for a mate right now." The last part she mildly regretted, because, well, Epicenter seemed kind of sweet, and Pan she found handsome in a rugged, unkempt way. But she stopped talking then, in fear of saying something else stupid.

Pan;
"I think you hurt his feelings," Rhea told Pan, glancing toward Nighthowler. Pan rolled his eyes so far back into his head that it hurt a little bit. There was nothing worse than a wolf who couldn't take a joke. Especially because Pan had merely commented on what he guessed Nighthowler's aggression had been about; after all, it had been hard to miss with the way he kept staring at the female and growling at Pan. In any case, Pan's observation and (clearly correct) guess seemed to strike a chord with the bulky and (supposedly) tough wolf, because he went to go sit in his corner after that. He whined a few times too, maybe just for good measure. Pan glanced once at Epicenter and saw the taller male's eyes locked onto the situation. Ahh, Pan did love an audience. He gave the green and brown wolf a happy, youthful grin, then turned his eyes to Rhea. She looked interesting too, and Pan loved that which interested him. He was about to talk to her once more, but some commotion at the foot of the cave drew his attention away. Nighthowler and the new male looked quite similar in body shape and size, and they referred to each other as 'brother,' so Pan deduced (using his keen wit and sense of observation), that they were siblings.
The new male asked bluntly if Rhea was Nighthowler's mate. Pan's forehead lifted so quickly that his feather swung out slightly. He noticed, however, that not only did Nighthowler not correct his brother's incorrect guess, he went to go sit beside Rhea again. Talk about mixed messages. When Rhea heard the question she stiffened considerably and firmly answered that no, they were not mates. "Ha!—ahem," Pan let a bark of laughter escape his throat, trying and failing to cover it up as a cough. Somehow, he kept his face blank, but boy oh boy, did he ever love chaos—even more when he did nothing to start it. He hoped it would continue.

Epicenter;
There was so much tension in NightHowler that he thought the male might spring at Pan, he half hoped it would, just for the show. It was probably for the better that the male didn’t, instead the male cowered with a growl and retreating back and away, seemingly restraining himself. He shifted himself slightly and glanced at Pan, catching his eyes rolling in the dim light. The young male glanced and smiled at him – his smile was full of young delight, mischievous, but seemingly nothing more. Epicenter, since he hoped to some day have his own pack, was constantly evaluating wolves, almost unconsciously. Pan was a wolf that would be difficult to have around, but at the same time would be good for morale, when things went rough.
His eyes then went to Rhea, who was left baffled at Pan’s accusing words and seemed uncomfortable being left out of the joke. Her naivety was almost beautiful, something precious, and he secretly hoped for her sake it wouldn’t be broken in any harsh way. Her kindness was ever reaching, and perhaps this was normal in good wolves, but it had been rare finding in his adventures about the vale. As much as he valued her goodness, he saw flaws in it and hoped it wouldn’t get her into too much trouble in the future. Perhaps that was why NightHowler had become so attached so quickly and was acting defensive and possessive. It was a theory anyway.
It was then another wolf entered the fray and he flinched, as he hadn’t been paying attention to outside of the cave. NightHowler greeted him as his brother, and then introduced him to the rest of the cave. This male seemed a little more sinister than NightHowler, even though they were related. That was when DarkHowler assumed in question that Rhea was mates with NightHowler. The whole cave seemed to go silent, except for Rhea who instantly assured him that they were not. Her talkative personality kept going and then stopped suddenly, and he felt for her discomfort. Pan, laughed…coughed… and Epicenter just sat frozen with wide eyes at the awkward situation.
“Well… It’s nice to meet you stranger.” He said in a kind tone, trying to break the awkward silence. “We actually happen to all be new acquaintances. This is Rhea, Pan, and I’m Epicenter. It’s quite the little gathering we’ve accumulated.” There were so many wolves so suddenly that he felt like there should be some sort of purpose, rather than a random gathering. It seemed like a stroke of luck that all seemed to be attracted to one spot, or perhaps not, seeing as they were on the mountain, and who wouldn’t be attracted to the mountain?

DarkHowler smiled at Rhea. "thats good brother I think violet would be mad if you had a crush on another girl." he said smiling. He liked that his little brother always tried to get the female wolf to have a crush on him but it is always he gets the crush on her. "it is nice to meet you all, I'm DarkHowler as you told him and I'm his older brother." he told them. NightHowler smiled at his brother. He changed from being the scared pup who killed their parents. "whatever you do don't make him mad he looses control off his mind and body and goes in a rage."'he whispered in Rheas ear. He didn't want to tell pan because he didn't care if he got hurt. His little crush over Rhea ended so he just wanted to make sure she got to safety. "you can tell the other one but I don't want pan to know about my brothers condition." he told her. DarkHowler smiled. He noticed just by there eyes that pan was the trouble maker and to stay away from him and that ecpicenter was the one who at least would be a little friendly towards him.

Rhea:
When Pan suppressed a laugh, Rhea blushed a little. All eyes seemed to be on her, which she normally was fine with, but she cared a little too much about what other wolves thought of her to not feel embarrassed. She felt bad about how awkward the whole situation was, but Epicenter seemed to ease the tension. She smiled at him as to say thank you. "It is funny we all seemed to wind up in this cave. I guess bad weather brings wolves together," she added to Epicenter's comment. Then she turned to DarkHowler. "Nice to meet you,"
DarkHowler brought up some wolf named Violet, to which Rhea raised one eyebrow. She wondered if he was talking about either a friend who liked NightHowler, or his actual mate. Surely not the latter. What was he doing flirting with other she wolves if he had a mate?
Still uncomfortable with NightHowler's strange possessiveness over her, Rhea almost flinched when he leaned in to whisper something in her ear, but she managed to stay still as he gave her a helpful tip. She whispered back "Gee, you're blunt." Rhea eyed DarkHowler, now wary of the strong, mentally unstable, and possibly dangerous he wolf. NightHowler told her she could let Epicenter know, but asked her not to tell Pan. So this was what she pictured was going to happen next: Pan was going to purposely irritate DarkHowler just because he was annoying, then get his throat torn out by the angry brute. Rhea supposed NightHowler was too scared to attack Pan himself, so he was taking advantage of his brother's irritability instead.
At this point, Rhea was not entirely opposed to Pan getting his face bitten off, and Epicenter seemed to be the only likable wolf in the cave. She gave him a quick 'what-in-power's-name' look, but her gaze dropped immediately so no one else would see. It was just so easy, in a seemingly insane company, to look to the only normal wolf for either reassurance or a partner to make fun of the whole thing with. The idea of whispering, in such a small company, was laughable. Everyone would hear, or would at least see Rhea lean over and whisper to Epicenter. Pan would obviously figure out he was being excluded from their little circle of information. Now Rhea was questioning the two brothers' sanity, but decided to just go along with it. She leaned over to Epicenter, per NightHowler's recommendation—probably looking ridiculous—and whispered a bit too loudly, "Um…so…apparently this one's got anger issues or something…so, like, NightHowler says not to make him mad." She kept her volume up just enough for Pan to overhear, because despite him being a jerk, she didn't want any fights to break out tonight. She was just a little too good natured for that.

Pan;
After his little laughter outburst, Pan could instantly sense that his audience was not recieving his jokes very well. These sorts of situations were always awkward for Pan, because if he wasn't joking around and playing, what was left for him? After his smile from Epicenter got a quietly blank look, and his laugh-turned-cough made Rhea uncomfortable, he really was left floundering a little bit. His eyes flicked to the brother-pair. Perhaps they had gotten off on the wrong paw... Pan just loved to poke and pester, and sometimes wolves just made it too easy for him. But, he was reminded again that it was a very small cave, and now that there was a second brother, calling the first one out probably wouldn't be a great idea. But chaos was fun, and without somebody to mix thigns up every now and then, things would get boring...
Then, as Pan was pondering his attitude and the situatio he now found himself in, Nighthowler leaned in and whispered something to Rhea. Pan couldn't hear what was said, but with the looks that Nighthowler was shooting him, he had a pretty good guess as to who they were whispering about. It was so silly, thinking that he wouldn't notice the secret conversation in the tiny area, that Pan felt his mouth turn up once more. He was about to poke fun at this brother, too, but remembered that he was trying to have a change of heart. Was it so bad that Pan went through life with a smile and a laugh? Sure, maybe that meant that he was barely capable of having mature conversations—and maybe a laugh was the only way to keep the darkness at bay... But he didn't think about that. He didn't let himself think about that.
Pulling him from his thoughts, came a loud whisper from Rhea. She was explaining to Epicenter that apparently Darkhowler had anger issues, and that his brother had warned her not to make him mad. Pan blinked slowly, letting his mis-matched eyes wander over to Nighthowler. Quickly, Pan deduced that Rhea's whisper hadn't been meant for his ears (in itself ridiculous). Her whisper was loud enough that Darkhowler almost certainly heard, as well. How would he react? Pan gave his mane a little shake, sending his feather to dancing, and settled down onto his haunches to watch. He didn't make any comments and pretended that he hadn't heard Rhea; after all, apparently he shouldn't have heard it in the first place, and hadn't he said enough already? A light, mischevious smile was playing at the corners of his mouth.

Epicenter;
Epicenter eyed DarkHowler with a wary gaze as he spoke about someone else that they knew. He blinked in surprise as NightHowler arched his neck close to Rhea and whispered something that was obviously not meant for the general crowd. He shifted uncomfortably and glanced at Rhea, who also looked uncomfortable, whatever it had been that had been the exchange.
He did not have to wait long to find out what it was, because Rhea leaned over to then whisper to him. He glanced at Pan as Rhea mentioned DarkHowler’s anger problems, because obviously Pan was being left out on this bit of information, but Rhea’s whisper hopefully had carried to the young male. Since she had whispered to him, he felt the urge to whisper to Pan, as if to carry on the message, but it was clear that someone wasn’t supposed to hear, and Pan it was.
Epicenter rolled his eyes, feeling the situation was a little out of hand and perhaps a little childish. His urge to stay was starting to wane, but if something did break out – he felt like he wanted to be there to help break up anything if it started. He glanced at Pan, who seemed not to have heard, or was pretending he had not.
“It’s nice to meet you DarkHowler.” He said quietly, as the situation seemed to get awkward once more with the whispering.

DarkHowler smiled at his greeting. "i know my brother is probably telling you about my little problem but don't worry I haven't snapped for over a day now." he told them still remembering that's day he had to run from some wolves he injured so he didn't kill them. "im completely under control." he lied and could easily tell the difference in his voice. He hoped they didn't notice. "i should tell about my self. Me and my brother grew up with are mother and father when one day I had a bad day and wanted to hunt with my parents. Well they wouldn't let me hunt with them so I got angry. My anger took over that I felt I wasn't in control and I killed them. When I got in control I saw what I did and so did my little brother. We ran away and I promised my mom and dad I would take care of their little NightHowler." he told them looking down. NightHowler licked his brother to comfort him. He knew that DarkHowler didn't mean to kill them and hated that day. He always tried not to loose his anger because of it and hates fighting."im sorry for my brother. He is still sad for what he did and can't deal with the pain." he said rubbing his head on his brother.
