Devil May Cry
Devil kept his pace at a calm jog all the way to the border line of the territory. Wrinkling his nose at the scents of other lupines, he pinned his ears back slightly before remembering his motivation. He had just won over a territory through stealth and now he needed allies or risk losing it just as quick. Though not much of a friendly guy, Devil figured he could at least be civil. Holding his tail in a neutral position and making sure he didn't have any hair raised to make the alpha mistake him as an intruding challenger, he sat down right before crossing the imaginary line marked in the alpha male's urine and lifted his muzzle, letting a chilling howl pierce the atmosphere, calling for the alpha to approach.
Failure
Failure howled the same howl, letting the wolf at the border know he had not time for this. The alphess would see him when she returned. There was also a threat layered in the howl telling the wolf to get, before he sat the posinious snakes after him. Failure was upset.
Devil May Cry
Ears pricked listening to the alpha's return howl. He caught the underlaying threat and growled softly before reminding himself of why he was here. He would wait here for the alphess who would hopefully be more of the talking type. Sitting down, he wrapped his tail around his bod, pinning his ears back slightly at the less than warm welcome for a potential ally. That's no way to treat someone of the same status as you, he thought. I am your equal, punk, no less. If not your respect, I at least deserve civility untill I insult or provoke you. Otherwise, keep your petty threats to yourself, I've no time for them either.
Shiv, Sniper & others
Shiv and Sniper were mourning over their abducted mother when a poor jackass roamed onto their territory. Hey, Devil was on their territory, so he deserved much less respect than he thought.
"You son of a bitch!" Sniper shouted, storming toward Devil. "You're trying to mess with us while the alphess was stolen?! You're lucky that my father is here to hold me back, 'cause I'd eat you alive if he wasn't."
Shiv nodded when his brother spoke. "We're children of the alphas, punk, so we have every right to kill you right here, right now." He snarled viciously, almost rabidly.
Auri and Kobalt were standing nearby. Kobalt held his head high, rumbling angrily. Auri, however, whimpered a bit.
Bulletproof and Switchblade stood nearby, with their fathers, Lux and Foyle, creeping up behind Devil. "One wrong move and you're dead, kid." Lux stated.
Psychotic
Psychotic a 190 wolf coyote hybrid was in no mood either to deal with males like Devil and she moved forward with Sniv and Sniper bareing her fangs. Yah watch your mouth scumShe growled.
Devil May Cry
Devil got to his feet patiently at the approach of the other wolves, though his nose told him none of these were the alpha. Finding himself deeply disappointed in the alpha's control over his pack, he shook his handsome dark head at their complete lack of discipline. Raking his paw in the sand, he made it into a small pile before him, not reacting to any of the empty threats as it was too immature to even think of them as even with him. Showing all wolves present the pile, he simply pressed a paw upon it and spoke quietly, more deadly, his eyes watching the others for any wrong move. He could take all their throats right now, they didn't know how lucky they were for his own self control.
See that piece of earth I just stepped on. It is NOT your lands, so keep your talk to yourself and let someone of rank speak to me, if you may. I have time only for her, and this does not concern you. I am on neutral ground, I have not crossed into your lands and I am in a neutral position, not one of aggressive measures. Please do not make this more drama than necessary and depart peacefully back to whatever you were doing. I await your alpha for a conversation not concerning you and only for her ears.
His hackles were not raised, everything in his body language still at neutral, for if the alpha approached, he wanted to make it clear he was not here to provoke trouble.
Psychotic
She growled at his words and bared his fangs.You will leave our lands now. I don't give a flying fuck if your just over the boarder. My sister has been abducted I will not sit here and deal with a dumb ass like yourself! Now bugger off before i slice your throat open!She growled at him. Her tail flicking to the side.And most likely what ever you have to say to our leader can be heard by our ears wer are a pack and we are family but right now we have more imporatant issues then dealing with a mongrel like yourself! She was too angry to care what she was saying. Her wound had stopped bleading but it still hurt and it showed by her favoring her left front leg.
Devil May Cry
Devil heard the female's words and wondered at the root of the anger there. Upon hearing her lyrics, he cocked his handsome head to the side slightly and let his own deep tones fall after hers.
Abducted? If you don't mind me asking, how did this come about? And how did you wound yourself? May I be of service?
His gaze had fallen on her wounded leg, a slight fatherly desire to lick it clean having to be stenched down. His curiousity had always far outweighed his fear, and he couldn't help but ignore the wolfess's words to depart over his concern for her leg. He couldn't help it. So used to being in a pack, he still remembered the strong bonds that held them together, one always in pain if another was.
Shiv
Shiv had enough of this fool. He was trying to keep himself from spilling his blood, right here, right now. "I don't care if you're in the Holy Roman Empire, you're intruding on our privacy and fucking with us. Go away or dear old Lux and Foyle will kill you and feed you to their hungry children." The steel-gray coywolf warned. It wasn't an empty threat; Lux and Foyle would gladly kill just about anybody.
Sniper stepped forward, getting in Devil's face and snarling. "You will not ask about my mother. Got it? If you really want to talk to her, you'll wait until she comes back, because she sure as hell won't like it when she finds out that her family was being messed with."
Lux looked at Foyle for a moment, seeming to speak only with his eyes. Lux then stepped around and stood in front of Devil. "Go on. You know I'll kill you. Come back when Nightshade is back. Of course, when she hears about this, she'll more than likely declare war on your pack. I'm not bluffing - I'm dead serious." And he was serious. Nightshade had waged war on creatures who even got too close to her land. And, well, Devil was just asking for war.
Psychotic
In her anger for the humans who had taken her mother and siblings she really just wanted to attack.No its none of your concern!She growled so deeply wanting to attack.If anyone kills this fool let it be me. I want to tear someones throat out right now!She growled. Psychotic were one of those who didn't cry instead they let it all be anger and really want to kill someone..
Devil May Cry
Devil again had to keep himself in check around these less disciplined wolves. They would surely have their throats ripped out for their unprovoked threats and promises. He'd like to see one of them go down one day. But not today. No, today he was already in too many fights and this one wouldn't even have a reason. Shaking his head to clear of the nonsense all too present right now, he stpped back toward his lands, sneering at the immature pups.
Then my concern is still open to you at any time, miss. I came here not looking for trouble. If you were to quote to your alpha this very conversation, you would be in the wrong for threatening an alpha coming to ask for alliance. If she sides with you for your foolish behavior then I do not want an alliance with that. Be lucky you're not in my pack. Your threats would not go unpunished. I shall come another time, when the trash is taken out and the rightful wolf is here to speak to in civil tongues. Until then, you with the mind that you can speak to others however you wish no matter what rank, you will find your day. Do not come near Parnassian Meadows lands or your end will come nearer than you think.
With that last word, the black demon turned on his haunches and walked off into the shadows to disappear.
Failure
Failure watched with anger as the brute started to bad talk his family. He was already angry at the humans for stealing his mate and pack members. Now this brute had to discrade HIS children and family. Oh hell no, some blood was going to be drawn, and he wanted it sooner than later. He was going to let his sons or Physchotic so they could go so steam before heading into battle with no rational thinking. He didn't want to take no chances. That changed when the insulting went too far. Snarling so vicious, that it sounded like a rabid animal last few moments of life, Failure was at the edge of the border. His side of the border to be exact, right in the brute's face.
"I wouldn't want an alliance with you, after your insulted my children and pack members by callling them trash. Get the hell away from my border, or I'll drag the ripped up carcass there for the crows and bugs to eat. Understand. This ain't over, once we get through with the humans, your next meathead." It was a promise, not a threat.
Once the brute left, Failure lead his group away to where Nightshade and the others were taken.
Tison came up, snarling at the intruding brute who was upseting his family. He followed after his father.
The snakes, wolves, equines, and two raptors followed as well with the other herd members.
