Rayne left the den after her war speech and came to sit next to her mate. Kiba had seemed to be deep in thought so she decided to begin, Luna, Balo, there is something we need to say to you.

Luna looked up at her mum,her ears lowering just slightly. Have we done something wrong? she inquired,her ear twitching. She looked over at her brother,Balo,and smiled sadly. She knew just how much Balo wanted to be apart of this fight. Don't worry Balo,your time will come she thought sadly,looking back to her mother.

Rayne looked at her pups lovingly, she remembered when they were so small and now they had grown up so strong.
Your father and I wanted to talk to you about our family. You are about to enter into your first battle and I'm sorry it has to be such a dangerous one. Balo, you will be staying here to protect those who can not protect themselves. You have an incredibly important job and I know you will not disappoint us.
She didn't know why Kiba wanted them to leave him behind, but if it were important to her mate she would respect that. It didn't mean she couldn't spare his pride.
Rayne turned her blue eyes to the matching crystal of her daughter, And you, my Luna, you have grown more and more powerful everyday. I'm not sure when you grew up, but before I realized it was happening, you had become more of a warrior than I could have imagined. I'm so proud of you both.

Listening to her mum speak,Luna turned her head away for a moment,just a little bit embarrassed. She looked back at her mum,a slight frown caressing her features. Mum...it's more than certain that at least one of us won't escape this battle,is it? she said quietly,her ears lowering. An image of Kit and Revera came into her head,as they were being slaughtered by one of The Kings. She shook her head. Don't think like that she thought angrily. Those thoughts won't help with anything

Rayne sighed and took her daughter aside. The males could have their own conversation, this was between them. The black beta stared out over the horizon, the setting sun casting a fiery hue on her, "There is always loss in battle, Luna. That is what war is, death, stupid, needless death, but it must be done to protect what is yours. A few of us will not make it and that is something you must be prepared for."
Her eyes turned down to her daughter before continuing, "However, that doesn't mean we just accept it. If at all possible, we will fight to bring everyone home. Your father and I have fought many battles where it didn't seem like we would make it, but we never gave up and have always come back. Life here has been a peaceful one and that will give us extra reason to fight. You weren't raised the way I was, my love, but you are going to see a new world and I know in my heart that though you don't feel prepared, you will be victorious. The main question is will you allow yourself to become a warrior or stay locked in your adolescence?"

Luna slumped her shoulders at her mum's,as Luna would call it,question. She sighed,rolling her neck. I really want to become a warrior,I do She was silent for a moment,before continuing. But the fear of failing and maybe losing one of my pack mates mostly makes me take a few steps back to attempt to not get too involved Luna narrowed her eyes in concentration. But now,the realisation has hit me. If I move away,and fear the fact that I may or may not see,or hear of one of my pack mate's deaths,then I endanger them more,for I am not trying. You won't ever succeed if you don't even try to do what you know is right but cannot stand the thought of something you do not want. If you do not want it to happen,then you need to step in and intervene with the situation so it doesn't happen. I realise this now,and now with these thoughts,I know I will do what is wanted from me,whether I am fearing what is to come or not. Luna mused,turning her head away. This may be my time to prove to the enemy what I shall do to protect my pack,not how much my fear can get to me. If I can prove to the enemy,and my pack that I can push away my fear so I can occur in a fight and aid my pack so as none of us lose our life in this battle. She turned back up at her mum,after her little "speech". I choose to be a warrior. And this is my choice. No one else's. I decided this with my own soul,my own mind,and I'll make sure-and I am sure the rest of us will too-to not let our pack lose to a stupid and pathetic pack like The Kings She snarled the last bit,her ears hitting her skull.
(Rant over ^.^)

Rayne listened to her daughter's proclamation and closed her eyes to fully absorb her message. When she had finished, Rayne turned and looked at her daughter with the respect she gave any warrior whom fought beside her. She came over and nuzzled Luna with the setting sun behind her, You will be glorious my dear. Whether or not you prove it in battle, you are already everything I could have hoped for. I'm so proud of you.
Rayne pulled back and locked her crystal eyes with her daughter's, And if I don't come back from this battle, I want you to know that there hasn't been a day when I haven't thanked Alpha and Beta for bringing you into my world, you made it wonderful.

Luna smiled,pride filling her. She nuzzled her mother,sighing. And you know that you made growing up in an environment with The Kings so much easier. I'm proud to call you my mother,and my Beta she spoke softly,her ear twitching. Anyway,we're all going to make sure that you return from this battle. We'll all look out for each other,and we will all return alive,even if we've lost an ear

Rayne smiled at her daughter's faith and licked her softly on her ear, We're all expendable my dear, but it will take quite a bit to bring your father and I to our knees. We are the Black Moon and the Shadow Walker, names earned for a reason. And you are our daughter, that means you are a warrior by blood.

Luna nodded,humming quietly. I wonder if I'll ever get a cool name like Shadow Walker or Black Moon she mused,cocking her head to the side. Like,a proper name,not the silly little name I came up with when I was younger she added hastily. Luna The Fearsome is really starting to bite me in the tail. It's now actually pretty annoying that the entire pack knows,even the new wolves like Kovu she thought. It's just a silly name that I came up with when I was the innocent little pup we all were

Rayne smiled and bumped her daughter as she passed, I'm sure you will. You won't live in my shadow anymore and I'm sure your given title will be much more impressive. But wrapping this talk up, I just need you to promise me something.
Rayne turned and fixed her crystal eyes on her daughter's, If something happens to me and I don't come back, I need you to take my place. Be the leader this pack needs and remember to love before anything else. All right?
