Silence (Closed)

[conspiracy]

Felan;

After her brief meeting with the goddess, Felan had headed northeast; the nomadic wolf found herself among decaying trees. The Barren Wastes was a perfect name for the place; their wasn't an animal in sight. Though she took solace among the silence it stilled her thoughts; even if the trees gave little shade. Living alone had its upsides and downsides; she could travel when she'd wanted but most of her time was spent alone wandering. Steering clear of pack territories, getting into the occasional scrap with wolves who weren't so agreeable was her current life. Though like the season everything changed; she wanted a purpose.

She would just have to alter her plans for the time being.

Felan came to a stop in front of a twisted tree, dead branches stuck out in odd angles all void of life. For a moment she wondered what the place was like before; how vibrant the barrens could have been before it became what it was now. Life was a fragile thing. She shook her coat out, a yawn slipping from her mouth as she did. The she-wolf had frowned at the dryness in her mouth; before sitting down. The barrens also lacked water, therefore Felan knew not to push herself in the summer heat. Not till she was clear of this place, so she would rest here for a few minutes. Then when she was ready she would continue on, to a more suitable place one worthy enough to be her current home.

The small wolf had laid down on her side, her large tail stretching outward instead of curling in towards her. She'd closed her blue and green eyes for a second but still listened to the world around her. Even if all she'd receive was silence in return.

Kaiko;

The Barren Wastes, possibly a territory he would soon own. Kaiko looked around the dead trees, he grinned, who would ever want to be here? Everything was dead and there was little water. Why would Kai ever want to own this place? Because it was the closest territory to Kai Lake? Yes, and plus he’s just crazy.

Kai galloped around for twenty minutes before catching the scent of another wolf, female, of course. He stopped at his tracks before slightly tilting his head, he walked slowly to the scent before spotting a small wolf, for the first time ever, his eyes widen. He saw the female, her tail looked like it was on fire and yet she did not scream in pain or anything. His eyes still widen and he growled so quietly to himself, he was angry because his eyes were wide open, no one had ever made him do that. Kai shook his head, then slowly walked to the young female “Hello, what is a young pup like you doing here?” he said hiding a grin.

He looked down at her, to be honest he looked like he was staring at the ground, Kaiko was a giant compared to her, in Kai’s eyes she could be just an ant to him. He looked at her tail, the flaming tail, he had never seen a tail like her’s, then he slightly met her gaze, a blue and green eye. Kai raised a brow slightly, another thing he hasn’t seen before, a wolf who was interesting for once. Kai grinned barely and his ears twitched.

Felan;

Felan’s ears twitched, her hearing seeming to be strengthened by the stillness of The Barrens Wastes. It amplified even the smallest of sounds. She thought easily picking up on the small growl; though she exhaled scenting out the wolf, a male and he was alone. With being new to the area even she knew that any borders hadn't been crossed. No, she would have known if she came across one, they were heavily marked and not easy to miss. Even the blindest of wolves could spot one. She opened her eyes, before sitting up eyeing the hulking wolf as he approached. “Hello, what is a young pup like you doing here?” he asked.

She nearly snorted, at being called a pup. She'd noticed that the wolves attention was diverted; his crimson eyes focusing on her tail. Felan wasn't so thrilled with being put on display, but she shrugged it off. If the wolf wanted to look he was open too; her coat had caught a few wolves eyes once before, but she was sure that the males size had gotten a few stares as well. He'd been one of the largest wolves she'd come across. Felan briefly wondered if the male was looking for a fight; she'd hoped he wasn't. The female wasn't up for dodging teeth and claws today; she just simply wanted some water. Though a conversation would be nice as well, if the wolves intentions were geared towards it.

“I'm just getting familiar with the land,” She replied, brows raising when getting a good look at the wolves wide eyed stare. Felan couldn't help but grin; her huge tail angling ever so slightly that if she needed to she'd be able to move quickly. The smaller wolf had met a wolf before with the same look in his eyes that this wolf held, a wolf with blood on his mind. Though she was no prey. “My names Felan. And who might you be?”

[Boomer]

Kaiko;

"I'm just getting familiar with the land," the young female replied. Kai saw the female grin and angled her tail so slightly that at any moment she could run. "My names Felan. And who might you be?" She asked just as Kaiko flicked his tail up "I am Kai," he said with a small chuckle "You are a young one and I'm surprised to see a youngling around here. Is there a chance you might be thirsty? I can provide water if you'd like." Kai said lying but the female couldn't tell if he was lying or not, he was such a good liar, he couldn't create water but he could control it somewhat. He turned his head to face the left side of his stomach only to see the dark blue water marking Geist had given him.

He turned his body slightly so that Felan could see his marking, was he helping her out? No, he was just getting a small feel for his new power.

Kai then looked to his right and saw a small puddle of water, it was a bit shocking that there would be any water here but Kai shrugged it off. He took two steps towards the puddle and stared at it for a minute before sitting on his haunches and focusing on the puddle, levitating it slightly to where it would slowly raise but then quickly go back down. The male grunted before trying again, and again, and each time he would slowly levitate it a bit higher but not having great finesse. He turned from the shallow puddle of water only to face Felan "Well, there is some water." Kai said taking one last glance of the puddle, it wasn't so dirty so really anyone could drink it if they really needed it.

[conspiracy]

Felan;

“I am Kai," The wolf replied, as he chuckled before continuing to speak to her. Felan repeated the name in her head, while watching the wolf. Though the she-wolf was usually friendly; she'd been turned on before but she sensed that this wouldn't be one of those times. "You are a young one and I'm surprised to see a youngling around here. Is there a chance you might be thirsty? I can provide water if you'd like."

Felan looked up at the wolf, head tilting slightly as her brows raised. The statement had sounded sincere; but she wasn't sure if Kai was just good at lying or telling the truth. She'd be a fool to just take his word for it, as if the wolf himself could tell what she was thinking. He'd turned so that she could see the mark, a dark blue one; it confirmed that he indeed had some control over water. How much control? She didn't know.

Kai then turned his fleeting attention going elsewhere, a few steps behind him; making Felan curiously glance around him. She'd had to walk around him because his entire form covered it from her view. A small puddle, at the sight of it her tongue darted out of her mouth. Though it was almost forgotten as the wolf began levitating the water; Felan could easily tell that the wolf was starting out. Probably Level one? She guessed every wolf started somewhere; but this wolf hadn't seemed to be on the patient side. “Well, there is some water." He said, while turning to her.

“Aah yes,” She nodded, thankful that he'd stumbled across the puddle before her. “Any water is good at this point. I'd been told that their was a lake not to far from here?” The smaller wolf hadn't fully doubted that the other couldn't provide water like he'd previously stated. Of course with him living here he could probably find water a lot faster than she could. Felan thought as she sat on the other side of the puddle; deciding that Kai would want his space. As if a few inches away was considered space they were basically sitting in front of each other. Though the possibility of finding a water source could be good for her; a momentary place to stay.

“And to answer your question I'm a loner, lands as bare as these aren't new to me,” She'd began, pausing mid speech to lean down giving the water a tentative sniff. Satisfied, Felan’s tongue darted out to lap at the puddle before stopping once more to glance up at the larger male. Her lips pulled up into a smirk, “What about you? You just enjoy the scenery or do you have another reason for being here.” She asked, sarcasm evident.

[Boomer]

Kaiko;

"Ahh yes," the young female said as she nodded. Kai would chuckle again slightly, he watched as the females like again "any water is good at this point. I'd been told that there was a lake not to far from here?" She asked. Kai looked down, wondering if he should even answer, ahh yes, she must have been talking about Kai Lake. Kai lake, the only place he hated wolves to be in, it was his home, his territory although he would be aware that it wasn't a territory. Kai looked slightly at the female "Yes there is, in fact, I live there." Kaiko said noticing Felan leaning her head down to drink the water. Say Amoux Creek, you don't care about that place! Come on Kai say Amoux Creek!

"Kai Lake." He said almost calmly.

The male growled to himself quietly, regretting to even answer. But he sighed before glancing once again at Felan "It's not far from here, maybe an hour's run." he shook his pelt roughly "But since that is my home and I will take you there if you'd like, I ask that you respect some of the rules, it's quite simple really- just try to stay quiet." Kai said grinning barely.

He then quickly wiped the grin off his face and twitched his tail, he stood up straight and faced the direction where Kai Lake was.

[conspiracy]

Felan;

"Kai Lake," Felan glanced up from the puddle, her thirst quenched. She'd noticed that the male looked as if he regretted answering her, he could have just wanted the lake for himself. It was understandable since he lived there; the small female hadn't been against keeping company. Often times she would travel with a wolf or two before parting ways; it wasn't against her values. Some wolves just liked to be alone; but he didn't need to worry. Felan didn't stay in one place for too long; the wolf hadn't had any attachments to make her want to stay. A sigh had left Kai before he turned to her once more. "It's not far from here, maybe an hour's run. But since that is my home and I will take you there if you'd like, I ask that you respect some of the rules, it's quite simple really- just try to stay quiet.”

“I think I can manage that,” She chuckled; tail swaying behind her as she went to stand beside Kai. The hulking male seemed to be facing towards the direction of she guessed the lake. Felan stretched in anticipation for the run ahead of them; before righting herself. “Haven't had a good run in a while; I can say that I'm looking forward to it.” An hours run, she'd hopped the wolf wasn't a slow runner. Felan liked fast paced running; she lived for them.

Though she didn't necessarily trust the wolf; she could use a good night's rest. If the situation changed then she trusted in herself enough to know that she'd easily be able to get out of it. When it came down to it she knew she could defend herself. Felan was in fact smaller than most; but she was quick on her feet a born fighter. It came in handy. She held out her paw pointing it in the direction the wolf was turned. “Lead the way.”

[Boomer]

Kaiko;

"Haven't had a good run in a while; I can say that I'm looking forward to it."

The male chuckled before glancing at the small female. He nodded "Try to catch up." and with that he ran so fast he didn't even had time to blink. he galloped slightly shifting his eye to see if the female was fallowing him, his legs stretched out widely and he panted barely as he passed the dead trees. Honestly Kai would care less if he left her behind, that was the way he is, careless. But then he wondered, would he ever see a wolf with a flaming tail again? What if it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance? He groaned, then slowed his pace only so that Felan would catch up. Kai kept running, he would look every now and then to see his surroundings.

Kaiko noticed that he was now at the border of Barren Waste, I'll own you soon... Kai thought. He then stopped at his tracks for a moment "Look kid, see these wastes one last time. For I soon plan on owning this land." Kai said glancing at Felan "If I like you kid, I might let you come here whenever you want..." Kaiko shook his head before running again. He ran fast, but just wait until you see him swim, he is even faster at swimming than running. Kai would leave the Barren Wastes now seeing less dead trees, he grinned to himself as he ran, keeping a steady pace so that Felan wouldn't be far behind...

-Exit Kaiko-

(So you want me to tag you in Kai Lake or would you like to do it? I can do either way )

[conspiracy]

Felan;

"Look kid, see these wastes one last time. For I soon plan on owning this land." Felan glanced back at The Barren waste when they came to a stop at its borders. The she-wolf wondered why a wolf would ever want to own such a place. She figured that it had its own appeal to it; a decaying relic of what it used to be. "If I like you kid, I might let you come here whenever you want..."

Felan grinned but it went unnoticed by the larger wolf; as he began to run again. She wasn't sure if she wanted to return to the barrens; but it was just something about the place. That would eventually pull her back to it's decaying trees, and dry lands; a change of scenery perhaps. She didn't know just only focused on keeping pace with kai as they left the lands behind.

-Exit Felan-

(You can tag me in Kai lake.)
