Devon;

Midnight Silence... Devon let the name sink in his mind a few times before making up his mind. As crazy and ruthless as he is being in that pack didn't sound so bad. in fact. it might be even perfect for him. There was only one way to find out, he was either going to join the pack or die trying. Devon walked slowly and watched the moon shine in the darkness, he snorted before looking ahead of him. He then stopped at the border and lifted his snout, he let out a deep howl to let someone know he was there. He then looked around to see if anyone was coming and then he smelled the air. Devon caught two scents and he narrowed his eyes to see if the figures were right there, he tried to focus since he is half blind and he shifted his gaze to scan the area again.

The male then sits on his haunches though he doesn't let his guard down. He twitched his nose and then looked down for only a second, then when he lifted his head back up his eye twitched. Suddenly he smirked and chuckled so quietly to himself, but then he scans the area again and he waits for someone to come by, and two scents continued to linger in his nose.

Acribus was dead. They’d found his body out in the unclaimed Barrens. The trail of his blood had lead back to another corpse. Apparently, the two had ripped each other apart. Fjord had been furious. How dare his Beta get himself killed with they were on the cusp of such huge plans?! Fjord had to replace him, quickly, so he’d promoted a newcomer to the role that Acribus had proclaimed his predecessor, this Li… Acribus had been the one to welcome Li into the pack and appoint him to be the next Beta. Fjord knew little of him. He would’ve preferred to promote Nyx, but she was nowhere to be found. Most of his most trusted members had also wandered off, so he was left with the wildcard, Li.

When the howl had echoed through the territory, Fjord had invited Li to join him on the evaluation meeting. It would be a good chance to truly survey his personality and how well he fit his new role. Fjord shot a side glance at the wolf in question. Black seemed to ooze from every crevice of this wolf’s being. At least Li fit the part. The wolf they were racing to meet came into view as Fjord crested a hill. He padded up to the wolf, holding his head dominantly high. ”What are you doing here?” Fjord growled, straight to the point.

Li;

This was it, a chance to actually meet the alpha and learn what goes around here. Li looked at his alpha and followed him to see the wolf at their border. It all came to memory, Li at the border and meeting Acribus who died later on. Li actually came to be a gamma of the pack, and around that time Li was a neutral. The male hadn't told anyone of his family or anything and he planned on not to. Li looked at the brownish grey wolf and tilted his head, he stayed completely silent like he always did. He wondered what the strangers reaction might be, like any typical wolf no one could see Li unless he was in light. Li wondered, why didn't his parents just named him Shadow? It suited him perfectly, but maybe Li means something and they just haven't told him.

Li curled his lips into a snarl like manner as he watched the stranger, though he would be disappointed, because no one could notice him even smiling. At it was night time which made it worse, but who said looking like a shadow didn't have it's flaws? There are pros and cons, Li obviously had to live with it and most of the time he enjoyed looking the way he is then and now.

Devon;

His eyes twitched again as he heard a growl “What are you doing here?” The male went straight to the point, Devon wanted to go straight to the point anyways “I came to ask if I may join the pack.” He looked at the alpha. Devon shifted a brow up and wondered if he was seeing things, was that another wolf next to the alpha or was that a shadow? If wolves that had clear vision couldn’t see him then just imagine how Devon feels being half blind. He cleared his throat and continued to look at the wolves.

Devon continued to look at the black pelted male, he didn’t say anything and that made Devon slightly aggravated “Why don’t you say something?” he thought as he rolled his shoulders and popped his neck.

He hoped nothing wrong would happen, he didn’t want to get killed by the alpha or the alpha telling the beta to just straight kill him. Devon knew he wouldn’t win in a fight with these two, one had a power and other had the advantage to hide in the shadows and get him by surprise. There was only a negative with Devon, he could only see with one eye, so that didn’t make things better.

[Rykett]

The response to Fjord’s terse question was also concise. The stranger wolf considered the Alpha and Beta with one calculating eye. The other eye seemed to be blind, most likely due to the scar over it. The male was strongly built and evidence of many fights marred his brown and black pelt. The wolf didn’t seem to care much about his appearance as the fur was matted and filthy. His singular working eye had a hollow, unfeeling cast to it as it watched them. This male gave the impression of an unhinged, dangerous wolf, exactly the type of individual that Fjord wanted in his pack.

Still, Fjord tightened his jaw, ”I certainly won’t grant entry to a wolf who doesn’t even introduce himself before making demands!” Despite his inner darkness, the stranger would have no place here if he failed to follow orders or procedure.

Fjord’s red eyes flicked to the black wolf beside him to watch how Li was reacting to the situation. The pitch black fur made it difficult to distinguish the lines in his face that defined his expression, yet the whites of his teeth definitely stood out as he snarled. Li had recently been in this stranger’s same position; challenged by a hostile wolf but desiring to prove himself to that wolf. Yet, Li didn’t show any signs of empathy for the stranger. That was a good sign.

Li;

The pitch male relaxed only a little when the alpha spoke again, expecting for the stranger to follow orders. Still though, Li growled quietly and he stiffened up, ready to attack if the alpha gave him the orders "Just say the word and I'll tear his neck off." He thought as he glared at the newcomer. Li's expression was still hostile but on the inside he was actually excited, for some reason being beta was fun! Which surprised Li, but he knew he would have to focus and be responsible about his actions. Being beta still had its responsibilitys and Li would prove himself worthy.

Li could tell the male was slightly aggravated, maybe it was because Li wasn't saying anything. Li could only smirk, showing none of his teeth so that no one could notice, he liked when someone got aggravated when just because they couldn't really see him. But then Li quickly erased his smirk and continued to glare at the stranger with all seriousness "It would be wise if you listen to the alpha." he said, his voice sounding like death itself, he actually hoped he might have startled the newcomer when he spoke. But even if not, Li was taking it seriously.

Devon;

Devon realized he should have said his name first, but it was too late now because the alpha scolded him for not doing so. Devon shifted his head down a little, he then sighed trying to relaxe but it seems like he took his sweet time because the beta said he should answer him. Devon widen his eyes when the black furred male spoke. Wait, he spoke? Devon looked up and nodded a little "...Right," he stiffened up and looked at the alpha "The name is Devon. I'll listen to the alpha and not make the same mistake again, I can promise you that." Devon said, glancing at the beta male.

"I can take any position you give me." he said in a raspy tone of voice. Then he cleared his throat and he shifted his eyes to both wolves, being ready for whatever was going to come to him. Well, it was mostly true, he could take about anything. Devon only wanted to join an evil pack because it suited him well. The only thing he hoped he wouldn't get is to be a servant to Midnight Silence, because then that technically wouldn't be part of the pack, would it?

[Rykett]

Li expressed his willingness to kill the stranger is a husky whispered comment to Fjord. The Alpha responded with a soft growl, ”Patience...“ Fjord’s red eyes stayed fixed on the prospective member as his head dipped lower. Those eyes flicked up, submissively as a he responded with an introduction and apology. Devon tried to make it up to Fjord by promised to take any position.

Fjord’s eyes sparkled as his mind immediately set on the worst pack placement, ”Even Servant?” He paused then addressed Li, ”Li, you don’t have a Servant, yet, do you?” Fjord paused again, allowing Li to insert his reply. Then he seemed to be thinking over the possibility. ”Devon. You will serve as Li’s Servant until you’ve proven yourself capable of following our orders and traditions. Once you do so, you’ll be promoted to a full member. You’ll be given no mark until then.” Fjord smiled, content with his decisions. He waited for confirmation that his subordinates would follow his commands.

[Boomer]

Li;

He positioned himself like he was ready to attack right then and there, but the alpha Fjord told him to be patient. Li's serious face never faded, but he sat down slowly and preperd himself for any possibility. Li waited a few moments then to his surprise Fjord asked if he had a servant. The alpha paused when he asked and Li took a nano second to answer without hesitating "No..." Li glanced at Devon with a sly smirk to his maw. But in reality Li would have never thought he would own a servant, he might've been an evil wolf at heart but making some one a servant never crossed his mind. The large male rolled his shoulders back and then glanced at his alpha.

Then with the quickness Fjord stated that Devon would serve as Li's servant until he was proven worthy to become a full member. Li's eyes widen for about two seconds before shaking his head barely, oh boy owning a servant sounded almost... Weird. But maybe Li can handle it, what do servants do anyways? They just get in your way! And Li didn't want anyone to get in his way. That's why he didn't really think about having pups or a mate, they just get in your way, Li just wanted some fun while he was still young. But it seems that now he had to change plans, but perhaps owning a servant wouldn't be so bad.

Li chuckled devilishly and glanced again at Devon "Wouldn't that be great, servant?" Li said as he then stood up, not caring if Devon was offended by what he or Fjord said. He blinked slowly before rolling his shoulders back again. If only Albus was here, he would totally be freaking out! There was no way Albus would be happy about this! But how to prove it... That would be something to think about. Li planned on seeing Albus again, just to see how his younger brother was doing. It was fun being mischievous around wolves, especially Albus, but Al would always ruin the fun just by saying "Its ok, as long as you're happy I'm happy! ugh, it was just annoying. But he couldn't be happy about this, as much as Li loved his only brother that doesn't mean he doesn't want to bully him every once in a while, and hopefully successful.

Devon;

Servant?! How outrageous! How insulting! Devon's eyes widen slightly, servant? Why should he be anyone's servant? Devon's eyes twitched at the thought of being the lowest rank of the pack. To Devon, Li seemed content on having a new servant. Devon growled quietly for only a second before roughly shaking his head and saying "Ok..." he had to deal with it or maybe just die right here and now. Devon shot a glance at Li, who had laughed and said "Wouldn't that be great, servant?" Devon twitched his right eye, already not enjoying this.

Devon looked at his paws for a brief moment before glancing at the alpha, boy did Devon sure regret ever saying "I can take any position you give me."

Now Devon is a servant to Li, a Midnight Silence member... Life was really not going to be good.

[Rykett]

The two other wolves had the expected reactions. Li was eager to have a wolf to boss around. Devon seemed glum and frustrated, yet still, he agreed to the terms. ”Li will report to me about your actions. If you step out of line or prove yourself unworthy, we will either kill you or permanently make you a Servant. We don’t like loose ends here in Midnight Silence.”

Fjord nodded his farewell to Li. His work here was done and he had other duties to attend to, namely dealing with his offsprings’ Rage Rituals. Fjord turned away from the newly paired master and servant and trotted away into the Midnight Silence territory.

-Exit Fjord-

[Boomer]

Li;

He nodded his alpha farewell, he had a new freaking responsiblity, watch his servant and make sure he doesn't step out of line. Li watched and made sure Fjord was gone and he turned his head to Devon "Great,
that is just great! Now I have to babysit you!" Li growled and took a step towards his new servant "I swear if you get in my way... I'll end you in a blink of an eye!" he barked, teeth snapping infront of Devon's face.

Li continued to growl right before walking past Devon, exiting the territory "I have other matters to attened to... Devon,
follow me." Said Li, not making eye contact with his new servant. He just had to show his brother the news! "I am going to visit someone... If you make even one peep... Well, I don't have to say the rest." Li snorted and trotted away, he turned his head to make sure his servant was following him. Li then exited the territory.

-Exit Li-

[Deleted]

Devon;

The male watched as the red marked alpha walked away, when he shot a glance at Li his eyes widen when Li suddenly growled at him. Li mentioned that he had to babysit him from now on, Devon growled and opened his mouth to try and talk back but he quickly closed his mouth shut before saying anything. He knew that if he screwed up Li would just go and tell on him and Devon would probably be dead, so much for a good fit.

Devon glared barely as Li snapped his teeth at him, but he said nothing. Then Li walked past him and told Devon to follow, he hesitated for a moment and sighed, he did what he was told and hoped he wouldn't mess up, it was already too dark and with Li's looks and Devon's half blind self, it would be difficult to track Li down. But he tried to follow Li anyways, hoping one day he will get the respect he deserves. Devon wondered why Li wanted to go out of the territory but he didn't question him, he just stayed quiet and followed Li out of the territory.

-Exit Devon-
