Zona

The Eskers looked beautiful at this time. Snow was here and there where it had stubbornly stuck. Soon thought it too will be melted like the rest had. Grass patches were here and there where the snow hadn't completely killed it off. Frankly the tundra, prarie, and forests looked beautiful at this point in time. It was clearly the promise of spring with the sun shining down upon it. Zona looked once again to their paws where it showed off like Yin and Yang. However that wasn't what the brute was thinking about. Actually his thoughts were far from that completely. Heck, his thoughts weren't even in the same present actually. No, his mind had gone back to the past where he was reseeing images.

He saw a silvery brute and black fea lying togather. It was his mother and father, alright. He sighed as he saw a little silvery form beside them that reminded him of a smaller Tyran. By now Skykin will be able to see tears glistening in his eyes. Than he saw his parents form again, except lifeless with him and Tyran standing over them with grief stricken faces. Just like it appeared it dissappeared, to reform with a different image. This one had Zona, Tyran, and a brown colored fea with them. It was Clover, Zona's first mate. She had ended up dieing by a snake bite. Zona had been there with her till her final minute. Than after mourning her, he and Tyran continued on their journey, but that was when Zona had changed.

It wasn't till than that Zona came back. At first he had been staring at Clover's dead body, only to see Skykin infront of him, much alive. He blinked at her as if trying to make her come into focus. That caused his tears to fall from his eyes, and once they came they didn't stop. With a sigh he heard her words. His fangs were flashed at her as he stood up. "Maybe i don't want to forget,"he snarled stalking off. When he had got up his face had caught in the sun's reflection. For the first time the scar across his eye would be noticable. It would take awhile longer before he managed to change his ways, and it would be a slow process.

Ty looked up from the river as he saw his brother stalk off. With a sigh he went over to where Skykin was. "Maybe, you can keep trying,"he said softly to her.

Skykin

Skykin wasnt really looking at the senery but at the lost face of Zona. To her he seemed in a whole other place and not here lieing with her. She wondered what he was seeing, something that made him cry. Yes cry it was hard to picture a brute like Zona cry. Skykin jumped at his sudden flash of anger and she jumped back not wanting to feel his fangs. She only caught a glimse of his scar. Skykin really wanted to help him but it was clear to her that he didnt want her help. With a shake of her head she layed down with her chin on her paws. "tyran i tried, i talked to him its plan to see he wants to be misserable, im not going to risk having my head bitten off if all my hard work will just float away" she said holding in her growl. "Im sorry"

Zona

Zona stayed away from his brother and Skykin the rest of the night. He curled in the darkness making himself almost invisible. You could only see his orbs as he stared out at nothing.

Tyran sighed softly again. Blinking his eyes he watched as dust turned to dark. "I know you tired, and i thank you for that. Maybe if you feel you can, you can try again, if not than i understand. Do what you want....,"he said to her softly.

Skykin

Skykin sighed and turned her head to look at tyran. She looked into his eyes and saw how much he wanted his brother to be happy. Maybe she would fall for Zona in time. She stood up and looking at tyran once the she slowly made her way to Zona. Once she was near him quitely she layed down by his side and put her head on her paws. And stayed beside him quitely.

Zona

Zona looked up as he realized someone was next to him. He turned to look at her with his yellow eyes. His white scar shown around his eyes, but he looked away silently. He couldn't think of anything to say so if Sky wanted to speak than she could.

Ty watched. Sniffing the air he took to watching for any danger as his brother and friend talked or whatever.

Skykin

Skykin was quite content laying beside Zona his warmth was quite comforting. She sighed and looked up at him when he look at her. Skykin scooted closer to him and put her paw ontop of his. "Im here if you need to talk" she said her nose touching his cheek then pulling back.

Blaze the red wolf was wandering. The pretty fae he had run into was still in his mind. Oh was she going to get it if he ever found her. He stalked in the black night searching.

Zona

Zona looked up at her voice. He didn't shiver this time when she put her paw on his. A slight smile played at the corner of his mouth, but Skykin wouldn't be able to see it. "All i need right now is a comforting hand,"he said.

Ty smelled someone nearby. He raised to his feet fur bristling as he glanced in the direction the smell was comming from. A low growl came through in warning. "What do you want, stranger,"he called sensing that the stranger was searching...But what for?

Skykin

Skykin was nervous for his reaction and all her attention was on him she didnt even hear the stranger talking to Tyran over away from them. She watched him a nervous look on her face but it faded when he didnt shiver or flinch away. "Im here" she said softly.

Blaze had followed her sent here but at this momment he didnt see her. Which ticked him off. His red head looked up from the ground to see a young male growling at him. "Im looking for MY runaway fea" he smirked.

Tyran

Tyran growl turned into a snarl at the brute's words. "Your fea isn't here,"he said through clenched teeth. He was making it clear to the other wolf to get gone.

Zona looked up at his brother's snarling. What the hell? Quick as a flash he began making his way downwind of the unknown brute. This way Blaze wouldn't be able to smell him unless he turned around, or the wind changed directions. He made sure to keep his eyes out of sight so the brute wouldn't detect him in the darkness. Ty didn't give him away, and he hoped Skykin wouldn't either. He would stay here to see what would happen. Hopefully the brute would move on without any trouble.

Skykin

Skykin very content just laying there in silance with Zona. But the growling startled her a little. Skykin got up slowly and followed slowly behind Zona. She saw who it was and froze right in the walkign positon. The fea was scared he had found her.

Blaze chuckled at the younge male. He was not scared of him. "Oh i think she is" He smirked another sick grin. He didnt smell the other male but skykin smell was so famillar to him that he smelt her right away. "Ahhhh my Sky" he turned to look at her. Blaze slowly turned and began to walk over to her. He rubbed himself all over her. "Miss me" he chuckled.

Skykin flinched as he spoke. "Im not yours" she growled trying to move away from him.

Zona

Zona made sure to stay in constant rage of Blaze without being detected, yet. He was going to use this to his advantage in the end. The only one that Blaze would be aware of that was around was Ty. He barely managed to sustain a saveage snarl when the brute rubbed against Sky. Already he felt the need to protect his newly made friend. Yellow orbs with black centers stared uneasily at the unknown brute. A sinsiter smile crossed his lips as he prepared to attack if the brute didn't leave.

Tyran growling made to move inbetween Sky and Blaze. "I believe the lady asked you to leave, NOW,"he said making it clear. If this brute didn't leave, he might be forced to leave with a shredded ear in the end. A savagness took over the usual kind Tyran making him see like a bloodlustest deamon. His blue eyes stared out with a kind of savage look as his belt bristled making him look twice his normal size. It didn't look pretty for Blaze as Ty bared his pearly white with fierce savagness you might expect from a deranged and rabid lion.

Skykin

Blaze had sky at one time. He had her in his grip when she was scared of him. Then the little fae woke up with a backbone. Blaze stayed in constent touch with skykin. "the lady" he chuckled. "pffff skykin is far from that" he nuzzled her. When the young male step in he snapped his teeth so close to his face.

Skykin was frozen sill she knew what kind of things blaze could do. And they werent good. She was scared not only for her but for tyran and zona. "Dont touch him" she growled making to push tyran away with all her force. Sky was so tiny compard to Blaze. Her eyes flashed to Zona giving him a 'please don't' kinda look she knew what he was going to do and he would get hurt.

Tyran

Ty wasn't going to take the fact that the male snapped at him. It was bad enough he disrespect Sky, and Ty being a gentleman could barley handle that. No, that was WAY too much to ask. With a savage snarl the rabid looking wolf leapt strait for the other wolf. His teeth snapping aiming for the shoulder or face. He teach this wolf a lesson in no time. He ignored Sky's plead for this wolf was WAY, WAY too lost in his own savagness rage.

Quick as a flash Zona came closer looking for a open place to get Blaze. For now he waited patiently looking for Blaze's "blind" spot. "I do believe you don't insult a lady,"came Zona's almost sick haunting voice. He still remained unseen so what if Blaze knew he was there...Could he see him so well in the dark? I don't think so. Blaze had better seriously rethink his plan when their were two wolves that could kick his butt. One that was great at fighting and almost invisible in the dark...

Skykin

Skykin didnt want them to get involved with blaze. He was to dangerous. He wasnt one to give up and he did whatever it took to get what he wanted. And at this time it was Sky. Skykin moved out of the way as ty launched himself at blaze.

Blaze was watching the youngling. The red wolf took the grabb of Tyran only to make to grab his scruff and pin him to the ground.

Tyran

Tyran barely managed to dodge Blaze's attack by launching himself to the side only to feel teeth in his shoulder. Snarling Ty made to snap at Blaze's tail to pull back causing some pain to the other wolf.

Zona waited biding for his time.

Skykin

Blaze tasted the rich blood of the young wolf. He bared his teeth as saliva and blood dripped from his mouth. He yelped as his tail was pulled. Turning with extreme speed he made to launch again at tyran aiming to pin the poor pup to the ground.

Skykin stood there almost shaking out of her skin. Why wasnt Zona stepping in. Tyran was going to get hurt and she knew that for a fact. She tried to push blaze away only to be pushed away by blaze. Stumbling she stood a few feet from zona.

Zona

Ty was succesfully pinned by the bigger brute. However he continued to struggle with fierce determination.

However this left Blaze open for Zona's attack. The brute was too busy fighting off his brother, and now was the perfect time for him to act. A sinister snarl escaped his maw as he leapt with great accuracy at the other brute. Fangs flashed before hopefully plunging into Blaze's tender skin at the shoulder where he would shake his head like hell causing so much pain for the brute. Than as quick as the attack Zona let go quickly streaking to cause the same pain on the other side. His advantage was that it was nighttime, and all forces worked for Zona instead of against. "Brute, i suggest you leave before i drag you away lifeless,"Zona's haunting voice trilled out like a lullaby. He was giving this male one last chance to leave, before Zona made him.

Skykin

Blaze's jaw was completely locked on the young brutes scruff. Blood seeping into his mouth. At that momment he forgot about the other male until he found himself bleeding and in pain. He glared at skykin with a sick look. But knew that he needed to go and heal before trying again. Slowly the large male chuckled and moved away. "Ill be back skykn ill get you soon enough"

Skykin watched closeing her eyes when it was just to hard to watch. Once Zona had gotten to blaze she ran to tyrans side. Blaze was gone but she heard his words. "don't you listen" she growled slightly at tyran. He shouldve and maybe he wouldnt be in this position. "you don't mess with a male like blaze" she shook her head. Skykin was thankful. "Thank you both of you" she moved over to Zona. And rubbed her cheek to his. "thank you" she wispered into his ear.

Zona

Zona laughed himself except his was a haunting chilling tone. It would make anybody's skin crawl. The black brute than proceded to chase Blaze off with a low growl before returning to Skykin and his brother.

Ty stood up his scruff barely bleeding. The other brute's teeth hadn't even made it into his neck area. Ty allowed Zona to clean the blood off before turning to look at Sky. A mischevious smile upon his lips as he answered. "Than where would all the fun be,"he asked in a teasing tone.

"No problem, that brute's got a death wish, my dear,"Zona said to Sky meaning every bit of it. If the brute kept up thats exactly what he get with Zona in the picture.

Skykin

Skykin had wished that they hadnt done this. It really only made things worse. Blaze would be back in good time and he wanted his prize more then ever. Okay well the blood was much worse in sky's eyes. Her eyes were on Zona when Tyran spoke off. His words just made the white fae shake her head and nosed him hard in the side. "Not going to be fun when you really get hurt" she said in a slightly serious voice. Skykin didnt want either of them to get hurt expesially from Blaze but these two were to stuborn. She looked to Zona and nodded. "Just don't under-estamate him you guys don't know what he is capable of" she looked to both before slowly walking of and sitting. She was worried.

Zona

Zona fur was still puffed out as he listened to what Skykin said. It took awhile for him to calm down enough after a fight. In fact Zona was still baring his teeth, but not at Sky and Ty in general. His eyes constantly looked around as he sniffed around wondering if the brute had really left. Zona was still in battle mode at the moment.

Ty allowed her to nose him in the side. All she got was a smile from the brute. "Lighten up, Sky. We'll take care of you,"he said in a normal voice. He stretched out on the ground relaxing his muscles. His scruff had already stopped bleeding. Although he did glance at his brother with worry when he saw her walk off.

Zona stood walking over to Sky. His fangs still shown in the night as he got closer to her. "Sky, i swear to you no harm will come to you or Ty,"he said low enough only for her to hear. Although he didn't say himself, or Blaze...for that matter. He already promised that he kill the brute if it was the last thing he did.

Skykin

Skykin was half in the present and half in deep thoughts. She barly heard what Ty said but she just turned and walked away from them. She didnt care if one of them followed she maybe would be to busy thinking to even notice. The white fae was just staring offf into space when Zona came up. Her head still on the ground her eyes looked up at him and shook her head rather hard before letting her front paws push herself up into the sitting position. "but if somthing happens to you zona" she looked to the ground. "I could never forgive myself" she sighed.

Zona

Zona sat down waiting for her reply. Eyes watched as she shook her head before sitting up. He couldn't help but smile at her words. He blinked as he waited a few moments before replying. Finally his voice was spoken in a firm, but in a gentle way to her.

"Do not punish yourself. If I die, its because I was protecting the ones I love, or I'm too old to go on. Either way Sky, if I see that brute again one of us won't be seen ever again..." He trailed off looking to his paws.

Skykin

Skykin really didnt know what she would do if either of them were to die. Blame herself that was all she knew. Skykin didnt look up at him her grayish eyes watched the ground. "you shouldnt risk your life for me, i only bring trouble I should just go with him save you the trouble and your life" she spoke quitely.
