Sage

The huge male hissed as he watched the Albino cross his path, he was the lead around these parts now and he knew it. After all would you mess with 17 feet of gator? No Wolf Would.

*Humans & Akili*

Akili was just coming up for a breath of air from her icehole when she spotted Sage. Dang, he's huge! She thought to herself. She was only four feet long right now, but growing fast. As she watched the large gator, Akili wasn't aware of the humans approaching fast.

A large group of them were heading for Sage, while another group went for Akili. At the same moment, both groups struck. They each attempted to get their noose poles around the top jaw of each gator.

Sage

They Missed his snout Thats When Sage moved out of the water the humans saw they were deaking with a 17 footer, with a attidude. Sage Hissed at the humans and lashed his tail at one, if he hit he could brake the leg, also the humans saw a gun shot on his tail, it was a hole on his tail, yet he lived through it.

*Humans* & Akili

Akili wasn't quick enough, and the rope went around her jaw. She instantly began to thrash and go into a deathroll, but the cold temperatures quickly put an end to her struggles. She was just too lethargic in this weather to do much. Akili hissed and pulled her head a bit, but it'd be rather simple to capture her now.

The other group of humans were careful to get out of Sage's way when he swung her tail. As soon as they missed with the first loop, it was put out again, trying to get it around his top jaw. They were sure that the ice and cold water would put a quick end to her struggles.

Silver Moon,

Well of course she had run off from her mother, siblings, and Spark but she had been tempted to visit Galar, Akili, and Dima. "Ha mom lied!" She told herself spooting Akili but she froze... something was horribly wrong. What were those humans trying to do to Akili, and the other Gator whom she did not know. "Uh oh... oh no..." She whispered to herself. What would her mother have done.. she remembered one or two stories her mother had told her about humans around here and what she'd done to help, but Silver Moon knew her mother woulden't want her to get hurt trying anything.. but Flurry would be understanding, afterall Silver Moon had to help her and her mother's friend. She mistook the other alligator for being a friend of Akili's so she wanted to help him as well. She ran out onto the ice nearly falling over. But she carefully made her way over deciding to try and use the ice as an advantage, but she was caeful not to slip in any of the air holes the alligators used. She suddenly ran as fast as she could without slipping and threw herself at the humans who had the noose around Akili trying to give her friend a chance of escape. Her white fur helped her blend well so hopefully if she could do any damage they haden't seen her coming, the only givaway may have been her black markings that were on her face or the dark brown rings of fure around her silver eyes.

Akili & *Humans*

Akili lay like a little log on the ice, hardly moving now except for an occasional hiss or flicker of her tail. The human was closing in on her when Silver Moon took her chance, rushing across the ice. The man was so concentrated on Akili that he failed to notice the wolf before it was too late, and she bowled right into him. Having little traction on the ice, the man fell flat on his back, loosing his grip on the noose pole. Instantly, he began to fumble about and punch at Silver.

Another human came running over, but tripped on the ice and went sprawling. Unable to stop, he slammed right into the man and Silver.

Akili was very slow to react, and too cold to shake the noose from around her jaws. She blinked slowly at Silver Moon, but couldn't quite recognize her yet.

Silver Moon

She fell onto the ice after ramming herself into the man. She yelped as his fist contacted her side as he punched her. She immidiatly stood, shakily on the ice and scampered across the ice to the noosepole. She grabbed it in her jaws and tried yanking it back to free Akili, just then she lost her grip afgter a few tugs as the other human had crashed into her then the other man. She shut her eyes tight for the moment and tried to stand quickly, opening her silver eyes once more to dart away from the man and to Akili to see if she was ok.

Akili & *Humans*

Akili just lay there for a moment, even when Silver Moon tried to tug the noose off her. Then, very slowly, she raised herself up on her short legs and turned to the water. Then, as if someone had switched an 'on' button on the alligator, Akili sprang forward on all fours and plunged into the hole, disappearing under the ice. It had taken a bit for energy to build back up in her cold muscles. A moment later, her snout came out of the water in another hole, a few yards away from the humans. Her speckled green-gold eyes looked around before spotting Silver Moon. "Hey... don't I know you...?" The noose pole was still around her bottom jaw, but she was large enough by this point that the pole didn't weigh her down.

The humans looked rather hilariuos, fumbling around on the ice and tripping about as they tried to get up. But they finally managed to get on two legs, only to find their alligator gone. Seeing their noose pole was gone, the humans backed away from Silver and headed towards Sage. They worked quickly, securing the larger alligator and dragging her on their vehicle. Hastily, the people drove away, not wanting to become a victim to the wolf.

Silver Moon

She shook her head for a moment to shake away a small headach that she had gotten durring the whole incident and rushed to where she saw Akili now at another hole. She tilted her head slightly. "Yup! I'm Flurry's daughter remember." She said in a more cheerful tone now. "I'm glad your ok... your name was Akili right?" She asked sitting now, careful not to slip on the ice. Her side still hurt slightly from where she was punched but the pain was fading quite quickly.

Akili

Akili's speckled eyes grew wide, although her words were slow to form because the cold was robbing her of speed. "Silver... Moon? Hey, yeah, I remember!" The gator said at last. "Yep, I'm Akili! Boy, Galar is going to be thrilled that you're back!" She went on, her speech was rather botched and shaken, but clear enough to understand. "Thanks for saving me, Silver. I just can't react in this weather... curse the cold!" She said, shaking her head for emphasis. That's when she felt the tug of the noose around her bottom jaw. "Aw. blasted two-leggers... I'm still caught!" Akili exclaimed, shaking her head again, but the noose was firmly around her jaws, and too tough for her to bite through with her sickle-like teeth. "Erm, could you... save me again?" She questioned with a slight laugh, lifting her head a bit more out of the water to further expose the noose.

Silver Moon

She began wagging her tail quicker and perked up her ears. "Your welcome." She then tilted her head slightly. "The cold slows you down alot? Thats strange." Once Akili lifted her head out of the water Silver Moon moved closer. "Of course." She laughed lightly and grabbed the rope part of the noose and tried to bite through it, or tug it off Akili.

Akili

Akili nodded, "Yep, stupid cold." The gator was silent for a moment as Silver Moon worked to get the noose off. But after a moment, the annoying device slipped off the alligator's jaw and sunk down into the water. "Ah, much better!" She exclaimed, flexing her jaws once. "Is Flurry and the others around, too?"

Silver Moon

She yipped excitedly when the noose came off Akili. Silver Moon had alot of energy. "Ah yes they are... at the woodland farm. Though my mom dosen't know I am here... I kinda... snuck away to come visit!" She laughed nervously but then perked up her ears. "But that was a good thing. If ya want Akili I can go get them for you!" She told her friend in a cheery tone.
