Revera trotted quickly through the undergrowth. Her scarlet pelt a muted silver under the light. Behind her, three sets of tiny paws fought to keep up.
Her nose twitched as she caught the smell of the old rose briars that hid this path. The mother slowed and turned to her pups counting each and sighing with relief at 3. "Alright, little ones. We made it this far. Now we have to get through there." She flicked her ears to the brush.
"It's not as bad as it looks. I promise. Your sister Kit used to go through all the time."
She barked rotating her ears to pick up any sounds of being followed. There was nothing on the wind.j

Bandit flikered his ears nervously. "Kit used to go in there? But its scary!" He said quietly. "Im not like Kit..." he looked over at Blitz. Was he scared?

Blitz shivered as he sniffed the knarled brush. It's pointy fingers stood high over his head. He caught Bandits eye and smiled bravely. "Let's go together." He barked brushing his brother's side with the top of his head. The white pup growled a little and led the way through. Mommy took up the rear of the opperation next to Black. Blitz didn't mind much. His big deep yellow eyes pulled in the light of the moon and broke the path before them. They would make it. He was sure.

Bandit followed hesitantly after wondering how his older sister travelled in this place when she was a pup. Was she alone? Did they mean that they werent very brave? But Blitz was brave....he was right in front!

Revera nuzzled Black softly to urge her on. Her golden eyes kept both of her pups in sight. Blitz was charging ahead a little too quickly. She may have to jump up and help him soon but the cool weather had diminished a lot of the the briar and thorns that were prone to sticking here.
She lifted her head and scented the area. Myria's scent was on the wind in passing with Destiny and Koda's. She nodded to herself. The pack was moving. Everyone would be home soon enough. A snap of the vines ahead followed by a yelp brought her to the front lines where Blitz was rubbing furiously at his muzzle. Bandit shivered next to his brother. The alpha could tell her little warrriors were stifling screams and knelt down to pull Blitz's paw away from his face. Three scratch marks by a trail of thorns, lined his black berry nose. She licked his nose and bopped his side. "Mommy will tend to it once we are home alright?" She barked looking back to make sure her black and white baby was still safe behind her.
Her brave white son looked up at her and growled defiantly at his pain. For a moment Revera saw his father in the mix of the yellow gold eyes then the determination to do what was best came through. He was Her son as well. "Come on Little Warriors." She whispered scanning the area. "We are almost there." And her words rang true. The growl of the waterfall was on the air. Its thick crashing past the brambles. It would be thicker there. Revera winced at the thought of having to get her pups through the last matrix. She knew what she was going to do but it was gonna sure hurt like hell.

Bandit followed quickly after his mom, the darkness frightening him like anything. He kept close to Blitz and looked around...there were some sharp thingies and they HURT. "Mommy....did Kit really come here before?" he yipped, worriedly. Maybe his mommy got the information wrong. "Because this is too scary..."

Revera glanced down at her son and smiled a little. "Kit found this place Bandit. Her and Misty before they joined us." She barked. Something moved in the night making the alpha prickle. Its heavy clobber in the grass made her relax. Threats are quiet. It was probably just a possum.
"A long time ago before I ever even met your father we were a much smaller pack and there were things about this territory we hadn't discovered. Your big sister helped us a lot with that." She barked warmly.
"How much farther Mommy?" Blitz whined sticking close to his brother and mother. "Not far now." She answered.

Bandit let out a little yelp of shock when he slipped on something. He jumped backt o his paws and let out a growl, his fur bristeling. Then he relized that they were in water.
(The water part just before the wide den. There are many caves here....so we should go straight otherwise you'd end up either in the sparkling rocks or echoing cave...)

(You want to lead? This is your area after all. I'm unfamiliar.)
Blitz huddled down with a shiver as his paws hit the freezing cold puddle. "Mom..." He grumbled dragging his frozen paws back up to where she stood. "Why didn't you warn us?!" The alpha shrugged and looked about. "I forgot Dear. My bad." She reached out and pulled Bandit back to dry land and licked both her sons paws to warm them.

Bandit shvered violently and then he caught a strange scent. It was practically faded but he could smell it. He could smell her! "Mom, I smell Kit!" he barked excitedly. He pulled away from his mom and hurried around the little puddle, trying to latch onto the scent of his sister. She really was in this scary area. He followed the old scent straight down, until he found a small opening next to what looked like a shimering pool. The lights caught by the water shimmered and shone, reflecting the dark caves in dancing light. "Pretty!" he said, awed as he looked at the simmering blue water."I smell Kit here too!" (Rev, lead them to the small opening. THAT's the entrance of the den. Then we can transition to the real den )

(godding Revera and pups. Have permission ^.^) Revera's ears flickered at her little boy's bark. She had caught the scent of the travelling wolves, so they had better hurry. "Bandit, you can explore later. Come on now." she barked, gently nudging Black and Blitz forward. As Bandit scrambled towards them, Revera led her pups through the small opening and into the wide open den. (transition to falls den)
