Aria slipped through the shadows at the head of her team. From above she could just see the sparrows flash of white that was Spirit. Argus lugged behind staying hidden with his molted fur.
The howls of the pained wolf danced on the wind. Aria slowed for Argus to catch up. In her mind she could see the red alpha broken and whining in the darkness of a den. There were warriors around her. One two, something like mice wiggled at her paws.
"The alpha has whelped. Keepers are vulernable." Aria barked to Argus then signaled to Spirit just before a young black wolf pelted toward them.
Quickly the party evaporated in the shadows. The young wolf might have smelled their camoflauged party but apparently its sense of smell was off.
"I wonder where she is going."

Spirit grinned to herself and quietly leaped through the trees. In the direction of the keepers

Aria dropped her head and followed the little sprite through the trees. She knew Spirit would alert her if something was ahead. From the flick of the black wolf's tail she was moving uphill. Maybe to the mountain.
I bet thats the den. Aria thought. Before she moved forward her paws froze. She knew there were three wolves infront of them but she couldn't see them. Still she sensed they were a threat.
One in particular stood out in her mind. A female with white fur.
Something was up with that one. "Argus. party ahead. Two males one female. Leave the female to me. you can have the boys."

Spirit slowed and watched the wolves. She hid behind a dense area of leaves close to them. She signaled to Aria slightly with her tail telling her that she would wait in the trees till it was time.

Aria gazed up at the trees and stomped her paws to signal Spirit to come down. She was the only one who might really see them. Maybe they could sneak around instead of attacking. Afterall it was enemy territory.

Spirit nodded once and disappeared for a moment. Climbing down silently. She halted in front of Aria and sat on her haunches. her ears swiveling listening to the area around them.

"What's the surrounding area like?"
The brown wolf whispered to her apprentice.

The wolves ahead are in a small clearing it is surrounded by woods all ever except for one side which seems to lead to an open field of sorts. We can easily move around them without being seen if the wind is in our favor. She whispered back.

Aria nodded. Just as she'd hoped. If Argus didn't give them away then this should work fine.
"What do you think big bear?" She barked to the large wolf beside them.

(argus only knows about kiba and sigurd for the males, so he's assuming those are the two you're referring to)
Argus had kept silent watching from aria's side,
What do you think big bear? she whispered to him. he couldn't help but grin at the name she had given her, it seemed to suit him almost as well as his real name.
it depends on the males, from what we know they only have two, both large. Argus said, turning to spirit what colors are the males? any markings?
he was sure to keep his voice low while asking. he might be the largest male in the area but against the two warriors he knew the keepers had he new he wouldn't stand a chance alone. before spirit could answer he voiced his thoughts. look i'm here to protect you both, not to start a battle we can't win. if these males are the ones i think they are then we don't stand a chance taking them head on. not only that but the entire pack will come running within minutes. we'd be doomed. but i need to know who we are dealing with before rushing them. he hated to admit it but keeping to the shadows could work in their favor. especially if the ghost and the demon would be the ones they were to face. if that weren't the case then they may be able to cut the keepers numbers down here and now.

Aria smiled sensing her companions worry. "It's not the ones we fought before. These two are younger. Still I don't want to lose ground when we've come so far. I might be able to pick up the black ones scent again but we need to pass by them first." Her bark was soft and directed to them both.

argus nodded at her words. they didn't have a much time to keep wandering these woods, moving on was only logical. they've added several males to their pack then. this will make it a lot more challenging in the coming battle. he paused for a moment. taking these two out could help us in the long run. if we created a distraction, it would allow for spirit to follow on and we can cut them down now. hitting them hard before these males can become a true threat and still gather the information we need. he looked to the princess to his side. i trust you can take the female?

"Of course you can." Aria barked lifting her head and turning the injured side of her face away from the bear. "She won't be a problem. I'll watch your back too if the pups prove to much for you." The brown wolf barked winking before turning to her apprentice.
"Find the black wolf and don't get caught. I want to know where the den is and quickly."
With that she bared her fangs and smiled at Argus. "So what's the strategy?"

Argus smiled, the strategy? lets see how quickly the can react. he chuckled. move into position on the other side of the field. the males are likely to try and protect the female from me so they'll shield her behind them. or at the very least they'll be concentrated on me. that'll leave them open for you to take her out. mean while i'll take care of the pups. he said thinking of the strategy he and sparrow used so often. it was nearly perfect. enemies often had a tendency to focus to much on the monster but leave themselves perfectly exposed for blind side move. i'll give you some time to get into position then i'll make my presence known

Aria's brush tail swung happily. "Alright then lets get em Big Bear." With that she nodded and took the same direction Spirit had come from. She could hear everyone rumbling about intruders. Through the shadows she made out two males that could be twins and the white wolf from her vision.
Her enemy was a bit bigger but her pelt was unmarred. This wolf had barely fought before. She would be easy.
(switing over to Aira's profile and transitioning to open wooded area. Let the games begin!)
