After the first fight. (the den)

[Cashmere]

Arias scruff was growing sore after being carried all the way to the den. Nuka seemed hardened as ever with his sure walk and eyes pointed forward. The young wolf twisted in his grasp until he was forced to release her. She landed drunkenly and sat before any other wolf saw her embarrassing display.
So good to be home don't you think Nuka? She asked with a nerveous wag of her tail.

[Jade]

Jade followed after her alpha and the smaller wolf whom he dropped unceremoniously on the ground. Jade smiled and walked past Nuka, swaying her full tail and sitting on her haunches, Nuka, that was such a beautiful mess you made today. What do you want us to do now?

[Kashu]

Nuka looked down over the heavily injured Aria. She needed rest as soon as possible. He turned to Jade with a sigh of pain. The injuries had gotten to him, as well. While the rest of his pack could continue to fight, it would not be advisable to have the leader in his den for an attack.

"Set up the next patrol, Jade. Tell Frost to go on a hunt. Bring the healer to Aria on your way out." He ordered on the walk out of the den. Shortly after, the male made his pained way over to the ground besides the young she-wolf.
"You fought bravely today."

[Jade]

Jade nodded and went to assemble the respective members of her pack for their tasks. The white female turned and noticed Aria's face, a knowing smirk playing cruelly on her face. Big brother huh? Right.

The cynical wolf rolled her green eyes and left, enjoying a task of leadership. While it was true she did have an attraction to Nuka, he hadn't made any inclination one way or another to her. That was something the she-wolf found very boring.

[Cashmere]

Aria tucked an ear at her alphas praise. She met his eyes in respectful glances but never held them for long. I tried. she mumbled. Her face was sore from her cheek to the roots of her ears but she felt more alive then ever. Thoughts of the fight buzzed in the young wolf's brain like so many flies.
Nuka.. your not really going to attack them tonight are you? The other ear pinned as she prepared herself for his rage or teeth. It wasn't her place to speak out but she had to know what her alpha was planning.

[sparrow]

Sparrow slunk submissively to Nukas side just ahead of Jade. His cool muzzle drew over the alphas wounded shoulder. The heat of the black kings wound sifted under his nose. what did you fight? A Badger or a bear? The weasily wolf lapped at the Kings shoulder until all the dust and unclean scanning was free. His brush had made it bleed again but the blood would wash away any degree left behind.
I need cob web to hold some pressure on that. Aloe leaves might be good too but definately cobweb. Nerveously Sparrow turned to Jade. would you mind getting it for me?

[Jade]

Jade watched him and shook her head, I'm not the healer here and you weren't brought for Nuka. He wanted you to look at Aria whom is clearly more injured. Nuka and I are making ready for a patrol.

The white female turned her back to Sparrow, demonstrating how little she was afraid of him, You do your job, I'll do mine.

[sparrow]

The alpha is always the one to check first. She has a head wound. It bleeds a lot and scabs quickly. Neither her eyes bore nose is in danger. In fact the only thing shes lost is her good looks and even that was scarce. Nukas wound is much more disabling if not properly helped. So you know what Rat tail I was doing my job. Maybe you should get out of my way and go do your own. That outbusrst was out of character for the quiet wolf or so the assembled would think.
Frost is going to have my head for that. the gold wolf thought with a slight snarl. He turned his back on the pissy she wolf and looked over the little female. His initial diagnosis rang true and there really wasn't much he could do. A few bite marks under her cheeks alluded him at first sight but it was clear now. You are clean and your wounds are settling nicely. Does your throat hurt?

[Kashu]

The amber-eyed giant watched Sparrow work, letting the healer clean his wound. Of course, as soon as he finished, the alpha would jerk his head to Aria. "If she loses an eye, you lose an ear. Hurry up and care for her. I'm fine."

Nuka whipped his tail towards Jade, dismissing the female. He would have a talk with her later that evening. However, he felt somewhat humble after being so injured by a group of pups like that. Upon Aria's question, the male let loose a low, weary sigh.

"No. We're not fighting. Though I may not act like it, my injuries are far too serious for any more combat. Yours are nearly life-threatening. I'll have to wait for a better opportunity."

[Cashmere]

Aria's ears perked back up as she listened to the rude exchange between Sparrow and Jade. She'd.l never liked him and cringed as he drew close and examined her. She hated having this weasel wolf so close. No I'm fine really She bit back a nerveously yelp as he continued to watch her. Please stop. I don't need any help. Her bark was harder than it should have been but Aria didn't care. She wanted him away.
Nukas voice pulled her instantly. Good. she let herself smile at him. I don't want to miss this fight. I want to have a chance to sink my teeth in Shadow Keeper flesh. She knew it was selfish to hold an attack for her but she couldn't hide her relief.

[sparrow]

Sparrow flinched at the alphas tone. He sure was attached to that nerveous little whelp. It would serve me well to do what I can for this pup. Yes my King. I shall move her to my den and deal with her directly. She needs honey to sooth her throat and I suppose cob webs would help her as much as it helps you. Come Aria I assume you can walk?

[Cashmere]

Aria made no move to follow him. Instead she self consciously pushed closer to her fantasy brother. Anyone could see she hated this greasy yellow weasel.
Don't let him take me Nuka. I'd rather die then go with him. Silently she turned round puppy dog eyes to her alpha. She only hoped that the disfiguring bites hadn't taken to much of her manipulitive cuteness from her.
Do I have to go?

[Jade]

Jade snarled at Sparrow, it seemed like she would need to remind the flea-bag exactly where he stood in this pack. But even in her annoyance, Jade could see that Nuka was having enough with this squabbling and didn't wish to ignite his anger further.

The white female was about to leave until she noticed Aria's unrest. This made her green eyes narrow. It was one thing for Jade to pick on the smaller wolf, but if she were genuinely afraid or didn't want Sparrow to touch her, then it was an entirely different matter.

Though she did enjoy the slight torture now and then, for the most part, she felt as if Aria was a younger sister in her pack. And if this rodent felt like he could make her uncomfortable, then Jade had a problem.

The white female stepped between Sparrow and Aria as she kept his eyes while speaking to the adolescent wolf, her voice not holding any mockery this time,Aria, would you like me to take you instead?

[Cashmere]

Yes. There was no hesitation in the young females voice. She rose on wobbly legs and walked to Jades side brushing her pelt in a slight thank you. Patrol sounded much better than being held up in a den with that thing."Ready when you are. "

[sparrow]

"What!" Sparrow snapped circling around his new charge and cutting her off from the bitch wolf. "How can I treat her if shes going to go chase squirrels with you?! Nuka you put her in my care surely you notice how detremental this is to her health?"
The golden pelted wolf couldn't stand for this. If he was going to lose an ear it would be for his faults. Not the pride of some Royal Bitch.
