Suzanne

Suzanne lead this small group here. She might be a female, but in this group she was leader. Her attitude was fiery and she challenge any she needed too. Nobody ruled her because she ruled all. Suzanne was small being a artic fox, but don't let her looks fool you. Test her and you might wish you were dead....

Orchid and Violet her right hand girls walked with her, but their head and tail lower than Suzanne's. Orchid like Riler, Tonic,Victoria, and Slasher were red foxes. Violet was artic like Suzanne. Last was Colic who was gray fox. Victoria and Tonic came next. Bringing up the rear was Riler, Slasher, and Colic. They soon came to a halt to while they looked around themselves...

Izzy

Izzy smiled and trotted along the bank of the lake. Her kits were stashed not to far away. She heard foot steps and stopped. "Hello? Bandit?" a bit of fog covered the ground and filled the air.

Suzanne

Suzanne hearing a voice flicked her tail to her group. Violet, Slasher, and Tonic instantly ran forward to surround Izzy. However seeing it was only 1 artic fox they backed off to stand with their group when they came closer. "I'm Suzanne leader of this group and you are,"she asked head and tail held high in the air. She was expecting the other artic fox to either cower or submit to her. Yeah Suzanne was pretty big of herself.

Izzy

She frowned "I'm Izzy second in comand of my little starting group." She was larger than the Arctic fox being a red fox/Grey fox mix. She too held her tail and head high showing she wasn't part of their group and was a leader too her self. "Me and my mate have moved here and claimed a small part as ours... Your in our small part..." She glared at the smaller foxs.

Suzanne

Suzanne smirked at the bigger female fox. "You sure about that,"she growled stepping closer. Like i said this female had a fiery little temper.

Izzy might be bigger than Suzanne, Violet, and Colic, but Orchid, Rilet, Slasher, Tonic,and Victoria were the same size if not bigger. They came up as well snalring at Izzy. Did she really want to try to take on all these foxes just because she was subborn to show a little respect to Suzanne. "I smell pups,"came a rosy soft voice from Orchid. She looked to Izzy with soft eyes. Orchid loved young ones....

Izzy-Bandit

She hissed "Don't go near my cubs." She laughed "So you wan to take me on huh?" Grey foxxs are so strong they can climb trees unlike others. She eyed them cautiusly "Take another step and I'll attack." She hissed. She heard more foot steps as her half mate Bandit ran up beside her. "Back off!" He hissed. He was a handsome fox His coat was a creamy white and his eyes were almond like his sons. "Whats going on?" He turned and looked at the new comers.

Suzanne

Suzanne glared at Izzy. "If you don't stop harrasing us we will,"she said in a hiss. Just than she spotted Bandit. She thought him a worthy male, but didn't say this out loud. "Look were just trying to pass through. Your mate kind of got in the way of that. Not to mention were weary from traveling,"she said to Bandit.

Colic a male gray fox glared at Izzy. They may be stronger, but red foxes were bigger and either way Suzanne had numbers on her side so Izzy and Bandit had better stop being so hostile and rude. Honestly females wouldn't harm pup and the males were no different. If anything they understood....Suzanne was having a idea form in her mind. What would Izzy and Bandit think about joining groups to make a large one? She didn't voice the idea yet though.

Bandit-Izzy

Bandit looked at each of the foxxs and then to Izzy. He laughed "I'm sorry she just had her kits she's a little hostile... If you guys want you may stay here for a while..." He smiled at them. Izzy growled at him. She stormed away towards the den. Bandit shook his head. "She needs some rest as I said sorry." He chuckled a little.

Suzanne

Suzanne smiled at Bandit. Like Orchid and Violet Suzanne was in season. The males went off to hunt in the fog. Suzanne watched as Izzy stormed off. Curiously Suzanne camed closer to Bandit. "Like you idea sort of i had my own. What would you say to our two groups emerging togather,"she asked him.

Bandit

Bandit smiled "Sure it would make raising kits easier..." He knew it was breeding season and that most will probably be prenant by the end. "If you want you can follow me and I can show you the dens..." He said his voice was soft and comferting.

Suzanne

As he said this one thought hit her. Who would lead them? As she followed Bandit she made to walk so close that their fur brushed. She wanted him to be her kits father. After all this would be the first time she had any kits.

The two other females that were in season stayed behind. They would get Bandit later or settle for one of they're own males.

Bandit

Bandit smiled as she brushed against him. "So we should decied who the leader will be..." His almond eyes fell apon her. He didn't mind her leading but he perfered to lead him self. Unless she would like to lead along side him...

Suzanne

"How about both of us,"she asked him with a sly smile. She didn't know how Izzy would feel about this, and frankly she didn't care about that. So if the female tried anything fishy there was nothing stopping Suzanne from putting her in her place.

Bandit

Bandit smiled "Ok then we can both lead." He thought about how Izzy would feel to. But she would be ok if he said he was leader too. He nuzzled Suzanne...

Suzanne

Suzanne looked at him softly while she nuzzled him back. "Should we tell the others now,"she asked him.

The males had returned each carrying two or three voles in their mouth.

Bandit

"Sure if you wish..." He said softly.

Suzanne

Suzanne holding herself in lead position next to Bandit nodded her head. "Everyone gather around. EVERYONE,"she barked out softly, but her voice did carrys. She added the second part for Izzy to come herself and bring the kits. She wanted to see what Bandit and Izzy's pups looked like.

Slasher and the others gathered around already guessing what happened from the way Suzanne and Bandit stood in lead togather. Each had they're tail and head lowered in respect.

Bandit-Izzy

Bandit stood holding him self high with pride. He stood quitely waiting for all of them to come.

Izzy came up to the group and sat quitely in the bac with her kits.

Oceara Trotted along side her mother silent as usual. She gasped when she saw the other foxxs.

Kit the light red kit clumbsily followed behind her brother. She was the largest and strongest. She had the same reaction to the others as her sister.

Savoir being him selft stopped when his mother sat and ran up to his father sitting next to his side nuzzling him. "Hi daddy!" He said sitting next to him.

Suzanne

Suzanne watched as the kits and Izzy appeared. One of them came right up to Bandit and she smiled watching the male. Than she glanced to Izzy wondering how she was reacting to all of this, and to her being so close to one of her kits.

Orchid one of the female new commers turned around to see Kit and Oceara. "Hello prettys,"she spoke in a soft, cooing voice. Indeed she loved kits and would be a perfect baby sitter if one was needed.

Bandit-Izzy

Bandit licked the kit on the head and turned to Suzanne waiting for her to speak.

Izzy tried her best to be kind to the newcomers. If bandit liked them she liked them... to an extent.

Oceara turned to Izzy "Mommy who are they?" She whispered.

Kit sat silently next to kit and Oceara.

Savoir walked up to Suzanne "Hi!" His voice was quite and timid. He was the smallest kit and was often defeted by his sisters. He sat down in front of her tilting his head to the side quistioningly.

Suzanne

Suzanne watched as Bandit turned to look at her. "Our groups are emerging into one big lets say family...With me and Bandit as your leaders...Hello young one your quite handsome,"she added the second part to the young kit Savoir in a soft voice. Once again her gaze came to land on Izzy as if challenging her to do something stupid. Suzanne wasn't the kind to forgive and forget so quickly. She wanted Izzy to give her some reason to punish her.

The others were silent due to most of them were watching the kits with soft expressions on they're faces.

Bandit-Izzy

Izzy sneared at the female. "Lets just see her controll me..." she whispered. She snarled and glared at Suzanne. Lets see what your made of Barbie!

Kit and Oceara remaind quite. Savoir bounced around his father and Suzanne. "I wansa pway!" He repeated to his father untill he was pushed into sitting position. Bandit gave him a stern look. He wonder on weather or not he would be able to control more children...

Suzanne

Suzanne saw this, and instantly she was up. Pushing through the crowd she came strait at Izzy. "Submit now, or regret it female,"she growled head and tail raised in lead position.

The others watched now wondering what Izzy would do. Orchid made to safely nudge Kit and Oceara gently away from the fighting females. This way they wouldn't be harmed if a fight broke out.

Izzy-Bandit

Bandit knew what was going to happen and knew he couldn't do any thing to stop them. He stood and picked up Savoir and took him to the other kits. He watched Suzanne carfully. If she got seiriosly harmed the posible kits in her belly could be harmed as well.

Izzy glared "Never! Just because you'r Bandits new girl friend doesn't mean I have to submit." She hissed.

Suzanne

Suzanne laughed at what she said. "Maybe this will change you mind,"she said with a growl. With that Orchid, Slasher, and Tonic came up to hold Izzy down by force so Suzanne could punish her with some nips. After all Suzanne wasn't stupid enough to danger her kits in a fight.

Bandit-Izzy

Bandit froze as he watched his friend be punished. He only blinked and breathed.

Izzy struggled to free her self from their grasps. She reached to bite Slasher. "AH! Let go of me!" she yelled over and over. She was panicking. She cringed at Suzanne nipped her. Finally she gave in and refused to move. "This is a cheat..." she whispered...

The kits huddled together and watched shocked. They had never seen their mother be punished before.

Suzanne

Suzanne smiled as she backed away when the female cried out.

Slasher and the others had only held down Izzy while Suzanne dealt the punishment. It wasn't cheat due to they were loyal members so they helped their lead punish those that needed it.

"Submit to me, Izzy,"Suzanne growled in warning to the female.

The others watched silently.

Izzy-Bandit

Bandit adventually turned away and walk over to his kits. "Its okay" He attempted to comfert them.

Izzy growled and glared at Suzanne "No!" She bared her teeth. She prepared to fight off what she had too.

Suzanne

Suzanne growled when Izzy still didn't obey her. "Submit OR Orchid will take over as mother to your kits,"she said sternly and attepting to nip at Izzy's shoulder. Slasher and the other two still made to hold her from attacking Suzanne back.

Suzanne knew it was wrong to take kits, but she had to enforce her leadership. Silently she glanced to Bandit to see his reaction to what she said.

Orchid still remained by the pups from when she had escorted the two female kits away from the fighting females...

Izzy

Izzy froze "M-my kits? They have nothing to doo with this!" She yelled. She knew she had to give in. "Fine..." She whispered. She stood up and kept her head and tail low showing submition.

The kits heard those words and froze. "Mama..." They all seemed to murmur at the same time.

Suzanne

Suzanne nodded her head silently. "Good,"was the only word she barked before she walked to where Bandit was. Chances were she really wasn't going to go through with her little threat, but Izzy didn't know that after all. "I'm sorry if that upsetted you, dear,"she said to Bandit.

Slasher and the others let Izzy up. Now that that was taken care of they were friendly once again. Tonic even came up and offered to groom Izzy's pelt and clean the wounds.

Orchid and Violet handed out the voles 1 to each member except for the leaders who got 2 each...

Suzane being so small normaly only ate 1, but being pregnant she ate both of the voles.

Izzy – Bandit

Bandit nuzzled Suzanne "Its ok. She needs to be taught to listen any ways..." He whispered. He ate his voles and laid down next to Suzanne.

Izzy trotted over to her kits. She nuzzled them and fed them. They being so small were still nursing so Izzy ate her vole and nursed.

Oceara bounced up and to her mother seeking comfert. To the adults this is consited normal but to her it wasn't.

Kit nuzzled her mother and began to nurse.

Savoir did the same as kit. They were nothing alike, but they went together like peanut butter and jelly. They followed each others lead.

Suzanne

Suzanne smiled at him. "I'm glad you see it that way,"she whispered back. Stretching she glanced to her stomach where she had felt a kick in the side. She wondered when she would give birth....

Slasher glared at Izzy. She could of least thanked Tonic for the offer. Honestly she was stuck up. A low growl was given before Slasher went over to Tonic and the two males began to groom each others coat. This would keep them clean and healthy. A few of the others were grooming as well while the rest ate or slept.

Izzy-Bandit

Izzy noticed Slashers glare and looked at Tonic. She hadn't noticed his offer. In fact all she had seen then was her kits and Orchid. Her being her returned the glare. After the kits finished she walked up to Tonic. This time she offered to groom him.

Bandit dosed off.

The kits ran up to their father and curled up next to him. They were only barley a fourth his size.

Slasher

Slasher looked up to see Izzy comming over. He growled at her telling her to go away. Even when Tonic nudged him to get up so he could accept Izzy's offer, Slasher didn't move a inch. He gaze was like stone as he waited for her to leave.

Tonic looked at her with apoloegetic eyes.

Suzanne was starting to doze off when she heard growling. Looking up she looked to the commotion. Ears perked she watched making sure it didn't turn into a fight.

Izzy

Izzy stopped and looked at Slasher. Her face remained emotionless. "Not every thing has to turn into a fight..." She said calmy turning back to Tonic. She started to groom him her eyes never leaving Slasher. She didn't quiet trust him.

Bandit lay still sleeping the kits huddled against him seeking warmth.

All the kits fell asleep exept for Oceara who refused to leave her mother awake alone. She sat up next to kit and watched carfully. She was learning.

Slasher

Slasher stood snarling now. "Thats a laugh comming from you. You try to fight Suzanne when shes your leader! Your not a true pack member,"he said loud enough for Orchid and Violet the two nearest to hear. They gasped staring wide eyes at them..To call someone not loyal was calling them not loyal or lovalbe. It was one of the worst insults you can get....

Suzanne still remained sitting, Could Izzy get out of this without a fight on her hand? The pregnant female didn't want to step in, but she would if forced too.

Izzy

Izzy smiled and laughed "I don't see why your poking things at me that you shouldn't be..." She turned back again a smile still on her face to Tonic.

Oceara didn't move her mind was set on seeing her mothers way out of this situation.

Slasher

Slasher was getting furious at the minute. "How dare you! You challenge Suzanne. Your rude to Tonic and than your snuggling up to him the next. Your stupid,snivling, and cunning,m"he snarled at her. This time he used his strength to stand infront of her blocking her path to Tonic.

Tonic not wanting to get involved got up and stepped away. Normally he would of stopped Slasher, but he had never seen his friend so angry.

Izzy

Izzy stood there smiling "I can see your protective of your friends..." She looked to the ground "Look I don't want to fight right now. and I don't care if you do... so don't be a bratt and just step aside." Her words were cold and hard. "Males can be so stupid some times..." She whispered under her breath.

Ocears knew her mother was looking for a fight. She continued to watch wide eyed.

Slasher

Slasher had enough. Snarling he leapt at Izzy jaws aiming for her shoulder. However if that moved work than he would only have one bite in for Tonic, Victoria, Orchid, and Violet were holding the male back now.

Now Suzanne was alert to what was happening. Surely Izzy wouldn't take that chance when the others were holding Slasher down. Wide eyes the female watched.

Izzy

Izzy smiled as he lept at her his teeth sunk into her shoulder and she fell back. The others ran and held him back. When she stood up and shook her fur her face was blank. No expretion what so ever. Her should started to bleed and she sat down and began to groom her self like none of it had happened. She looked back at Slasher and giggled "Fun" was all she said before she stood up and guided the kits to her den.

Slasher

Slasher was ready to stop, but thats when he heard Izzy little giggle and voice. Snapping at Violet who was the one mostly holding him down he managed to get free. Now he thought while her backs turned. He was just about to leap when a sharp command was spoken.

"No Slasher. She's learned her lesson. Izzy do not provoke you fellow pack members into a fight,"was all Suzanne said. Silently when the mother came over to get her kits she stood head and tail raised. She was making sure that Izzy acknoledged HER as leader.

Izzy-Bandit

Izzy nodded and simply left.

Now Bandit was awake and startled "What happened?" He asked as he watched Izzy and the kits leave...

Suzanne

Suzanne looked to her mate. "Izzy was trying to start a fight with Slasher when he stood up for Tonic, or something. I didn't see the whole thing, but i saw enough,"she said with a sigh. At least Izzy was seeing her as lead. She watched the kits follow they're mother to the den.

Bandit

Bandit sat up and nuzzled Suzanne. "hm.." He sighed and shook his head dissaprovingly. Then he stood and walked up to Slasher. "So what happened?" He sat down ready to listen if Slasher wouls tell him...

Slasher

Slasher looked up to see Bandit come over. "Tonic offered to groom Izzy. She ignored him completely, and i got upset when she offended my friend. She tried to come back and groom him after i started to clean his coat. I got upset and we both said some words that were best left unspoken. Eventually she tried to pick a fight with me, and i bit her. When it almost conintued Suzanne stopped it,"he said to the leader.

Suzanne watched with silent eyes as she heard the first part of the story. The rest she already knew about. Watching Bandit she layed her small head on her paws.

Bandit

Bandit frowned "Ok..." He walked away he couldn't punish either one since there weren't positions yet. Neither was higher than the other...

Suzanne

Suzanne followed after her mate. "We need to decide postitions. Do you want to decide now or...wait,"she asked him knowing she might be pushing it.

Slasher went to lay with Tonic. Soon the two friends were asleep. The other foxes slept too...It seemed the only ones awake were the leads.

Bandit

Bandit nodded "We should decide now..." He said looking to her. But he didn't know the other foxes.

Suzanne

Suzanne smiled as she sat down. "Okay. Lets start with your old section first. Of course the kits will remain under that category to older. Hmm that leaves Izzy...,"she trailed off letting her mate decide the female's state. After all she didn't know Izzy well enough, and she'll be happy with whatever choice was given for Izzy because she trusted Bandit's judgement.

Bandit

Bandit frowned its hard to be a responsible leader and friend. "She hasn't been good. I can't put her too high. Lets put her as regular pack member..." He knew she would be mad at him but he couldn't do any thing.

Suzanne

Suzanne was silent as she heard him out. "Besides if she dosen't like it she can challenge someone later i suppose. Its the way of a pack....Slasher should be a regular member along with Violet, Colic and Veronica. Orchid can maybe be beta because she's been beta before and knows how to handle it. Maybe Tonic as gamma and Riler as Delta. I think thats everyone..Are all of these okay with you,"she asked Bandit waiting for a reply.

Bandit

Bandit smiled "Of course it is. I trust your judgement. As long as your comfertable with it your self..." He poked his cold wet black nose into her soft white fur. He smiled and looked at her once more.

Suzanne

Suzanne smiled at him. "I think I can handle it,"she said with a smirk. Muscles tensed at first from the coldness, but simply relaxed after a second. However with a devilist smile she returned the favor poking her cold nose at his cheek. However she was smiling at him playfully.

Bandit

Bandit smiled and poked her back. He bent down like a playful dog and tried to start a game of wrestling. How ever he didn't know if she would be ok with it...

Suzanne

Suzanne laughed softly as he began a game of wrestling. She played back, but being female she wouldn't win cause Bandit was male. Artic males weighed more than females. Either way though she was feisty so she fought back as hard as she could. Playfully attepting to nip his ear gently she pawed at his face.

Bandit

Bandit laughed as they tumbled around. She caught his ear and started to chew on it. He attempted to pounce on her and hold her down.

Suzanne

Suzanne growled playfully as she managed to get his ear. However he pounced, and his aim was true. Caught by Bandit she lay there still growling softly as she held onto his ear...

Bandit

Bandit laughed and bent down to lick her cheek. He hopped off and sat down next to her. His voice rang out as he laughed.
