Spenca:
 A black wolf darted among the forest floor, fast and unseen unless you could spot the autumn colored spots on her rump of the golden bands on her ankles. The black blur stopped, breathing hard. Spenca looked around, her blue-purple eyes darted around, but to her, half her world was black as midnight. She looked behind her, then turned her head. She had looked with her blind blue eye.

 Spenca sat down, and started doing a little grooming. She was barely a few months old, but with spring here, it was easy to start again. Spenca looked behind her again, this time with her purple eye. She was waiting for her identical twin sister. She suddenly perked up, looking around. She had herd something..

Helios was beautiful, and he knew it. But no one else appreciated it as much as he did. Everyone was too busy with pack duties and stupid grown up stuff. But while they were off discussing the future of Secluded Sunrise, he was growing. He was no longer the tiny tan pup in the nursery. No, Helios was now big and strong. Well, as big as he could get presently. He was almost a year old, but not quite. Oh how the long months were agonizing. His gold, white, brown, and tan coat gleamed under the warm, gilded sun. His bright eyes glistened as he surveyed his surroundings. Helios had been working hard all his life (although remarkably short) to get a huge map of this territory in his mind, cataloging all the members. Unfortunately, that map was still a work in progress, and had many flaws. Flaws that got him lost....like now for instance.

The muscular wolf pup trotted tentatively through the brush, weaving around the skeletal trunks soaring above him. Furrowing his brow, he searched his mind. He knew he was in the Ashwood Grove...but where inside that? With a sigh if frustration he charged forward, pushing his way through the supple saplings. To his surprise, when he reached the other side of the bramble barrier, he saw a pup not on his member list. Another mistake in his memory. The naive pup didnt even pause to consider that the shepup standing before him could be an intruder, no, but he simply laid the fault on his own mind. Eyes lighting up, an charming grin grew on his lips. "Hey! I'm Helios! I don't believe I've caught your name." He treated the spotted girl as a member of the pack, for surely that what she was.

"Sis!" she called out, running over with two small mice in her jaws. "I caught a mouse for each of us, why didn't you wait for me?" Lis asked curiously. She breathed heavily as she arrived on her sister's left side. Her blind eye was against her sister's blind eye.

She liked it that way. It made it easier to make sure they were safe. Then, she jolted when she noticed a handsome male that was just a little older than them. Helios, was it? Slightly alarmed, she turned her head and whispered, "He smells like Mom, don't you think?"

How did Spenca even get here that fast? She knew she was the slower of the two, but still. . Although, there was still a question that needed an answer. She relaxed her tensed body before calmly saying, "Hi there. We're Expense, Spenca to you, and Lisanna, also shortened, to Lis."

[Deleted]

Spenca turned sharply, her purple eye glimmering dark in the shade of the forest. "I did, your just slow. I do envy your stamina." she said, the looked at the older pup. She smiled and whispered the the pups ear. "If you want to annoy her, call her Anna." she then smirked and stepped bck, nodding as if she hadn't just told Helios her sister's other nickname. She then glared at Helios and growled. "Call me Expense and die." she snarled. She then sat and flicked her beige tipped tail. "Well, you clearly belong here. So, were you born here? Or did you join?" she asked pointedly. Spenca was on a quest much like Helios', only she had made it her personal business to know everyone in the pack. So far it was just three wolves.

Helios and the black shepup were quickly joined by another pup. This one, the exact copy of the first. This caught Helios off guard. Both had spots.....both had hetero eyes.....getting slightly dizzy, he blinked a couple of times. "Great catch! There's plenty of rabbits hiding in the grass thickets near the border." He yapped excitedly, quickly becoming comfortable around the two girls. "Spenca and Lis....Can I call you Pen?" He cocked his head at the first twin. His bright eyes gleamed. Meeting new wolves was exciting. Helios was slightly shocked by Expence's wording. He knew about 'evil' wolves and 'good' wolves, but Daddy had said only 'neutral' wolves called this place home. Helios knew that neutral wolves didnt just throw out threats all willy nilly. "Um...." He took a step back, his ruff bristling slightly, chest puffing out as he rose to his full height, suddenly getting defensive. But then, Helios worked out in his mind that Spenca must be joking. Right? Flattening us fur, he let out a smile and shrunk back down into an unassuming stance.

"Spence! Be polite. You don't need to be brutish all the time!" She laughed and watched the male as he seemed to think that her sister was hostile. "Spence just doesn't like her name and is defensive about it. Anyway, like my sister asked, were you born in the pack?"

She truly was curious. On a side note, she lightly bumped her hip to her sister's and glanced at her, discreetly. It was a signal to sit down 3 counts after the signal. It was always fun to freak people out if they fell for the little trick. Good times.

Remembering what she was going to continue with, she sat down and hoped her sister was going with it. "Our mom is Blaise!" She said, happily and proudly. Lis didn't remember anything about switching from being Lokianna's daughters to being Blaise's daughters. She just called her Mom, without any doubts.

Spenca:
"Why should I? For all I know, he could be a spy! And no, not 'Pen'. I'm the daughter of the Alphess, I demand a bit of respect from a pack member." She glared, but caught his sister's glance and smiled. She sat on command, and looked at Helios with curiosity. Her tail flicked, and her eyes scanned around. Spenca was a tactician, she was smart when it came to an attack. Her purple eye was so much like her adoptive mother's, you could believe she was Blaise's daughter. She had no clue she was from another pack, all she had ever known was the Ashwood Grove, and the Canopied Clearing. She had never been on explorations like her older brother and sister, or her brother who would left Frigid Plague, and their father.

Helios was liking Lis much better than her sister...however this was still an adventure... He flashed a nervous smile before shrugging. "My dads the gamma! He founded this pack! Besides, Blaise and me.....we're like this." He put a strong paw over Lisanna's shoulders, symbolizing his relationship with their mother. He laughed before removing his leg from his new 'friends(?)' shoulders. "Cool down Pencil, I'm just being friendly, no need to get haughty." He bowed himself down in the global signal to play. "Come on lets gave some fun!!" He yapped, pups should play, not discuss pack prejudice. The handsome hepup let his tongue loll out, prominent muscles bulging as he bent his frame in a gentle slope. He could always use friends, and something to do, unfortunately these twins didn't seem to want to engage with him. He'd try a bit more but if they didn't respond positively he'd leave this lost cause alone.

Lisanna let out a small giggle at the two of them. She found both of their actions quite amusing. They were so confident in themselves. Although, they were completely different in that trait. Spenca was confident in herself and in her abilities against other wolves. She knew what she was made of and wouldn't stop unless she was done. On the other paw, Helios was confident in his words and his heritage. Lis liked both of them in their antics.

She could feel the muscles in her sister's leg start to relax and she could tell that she was being carried off into her thoughts and wonders, getting distracted. She also liked the nicknames that the other pup was giving her twin. When Helios dropped down to the ground, she laughed a little mroe and felt a smile take place. "Sure, I don't see why not. C'mon Spence." She didn't waste a moment before pouncing forward and tackling Helios.

Spenca:
Spenca returned the play bow, her eyes bright all of a sudden. "Lets play! See if you guys can catch me!" She let out a giggle as she ran, her blue-purple eyes glinting brightly. Then she made a sharp turn, and pounced on her sister Helios. "I'm on top! I'm queen!!!" she yelled. Her purple eye gleamed with a brightness not unlike her. I'm the queen of the pups! She smiled down at her sister, and Helios. "Lis, you can be my co-ruler. Helios, you are my servant." She said smugly. Glaring down at the self-important older pup. They won't ever topple me! She got off, her smug smile bright on her face. "Now, Helios, go fetch me a mouse!" she said, giggling wildly so it was half impossible to take her seriously.

Helios practically exploded with glee as his fur stood on end. If he could get angry little Exspence to play, than he could do anything. In his moment of pride and happiness, he accepted his position and played along. "As you wish, my lady." He bowed extravagantly, his gleaming eyes twinkling with youthful energy. The tan hewolf then sprung to his paws, ears perked for any sign of a mouse. Around this time of year, rodents could be found scurrying under the top layer of earth, and burrowing in the roots of trees. "There! His tail sprung straight up into the air, alerting the girls of his find.

Lis dropped her height ever so slightly as she stepped lightly upon the ground to reach Helios' side. As she arrived, she flung a look over her shoulder and stuck out her tongue at her twin. A silent snicker fell in place until the male's tail struck the air.
She turned forward and tilted her head ever so slightly to the right. Her blue eye searched the area. Her ears twitched about before she located what Helios was talking about. She took the initiative, standing up straight, and split from his side to circle around the small victim.
Lisanna dipped her head and sniffed along the soil. She quickly nosed her way through the top layer of the snow and snapped her jaws around the tail of the mouse. She flicked her head up and let it go, sending the squirming body to Helios' paws. Lis swiped a gray paw over her muzzle before looking to the others and the mouse, who struggled to get up.
