The alpha female would look rather odd where she was, rolled over on her back at an obserd angle, her body contorted slightly as she attempted to scratch an insatiable itch on her back. Her jaws were parted and her tongue lolled freely, chrome hues squinted slightly as the smell of sweet summer grass filled her nostrils. The day was clear and calm, the perfect lazy day for an admittedly lazy alphaess. ((18:13)) * %Ammorez had returned to the clearing for a short trip around the perimeter. It was a slow day today so it was a good day to travel around. Take note of anything that seemed out of ordinary. Nothing was found of course, nothing that seemed to be of any threat, so she decided to take her leave back to the clearing. Once getting there, she would chuff quietly, alerting all those who were around, of her pressence.

The cool breeze swept through the males light hued pelt , It seemed to ruffle him up a bit but he only chuckled as he looked a little funny. ((18:29)) * %Agro minded his own business, stretched out onto his belly, copper eyes following the movements of a trail of ants crossing out in front of him. Hardworking little pests. Cute, and yet so evil. The male, rolling onto his back and letting his tongue loll out of his muzzle, finally caught some of the movement happening around the clearing. He couldn't exactly tell who was who due to the fact ((18:29)) * %Agro he was upside down but that was beside the point. With a huff, Agro decided to hop to his feet, join the mingling wolves, actually socialize a little. His first target?

She saw several wolves milling around, and made her way towards one>> ((18:40)) <@Kelais> >>in particular she hadn't seen much lately. "Saigh," she greeted the alpha female with a dip of her maw.

"Good evening" she said, twisting and contorting herself to greet both her and the reigning lead huntress. Her tail thumping against the ground as she looked at them from her upside down psoition looking rather goofy until realizing she was being rather 'unprofessional' and hoisted herself up onto her stomach with an audible grunt. Grass and twigs clinging to her salt and pepper coat as she looked around, feeling a bit dizzy for a moment and wondering why there were two of both adal and Kelais. "Im okay.

He nodded a proper greeting to Valdis after giving his introduction. "I'm Agro. Nice to see a new face that isn't mine around here." ((19:30)) * %Otsoko had fallen asleep out by the waterfall since his last interation with his lovely court. Upon hearing voices in the distance, the male popped his head up off his paws and offered a yawn into the open air.

With his tail waving lazily behind, it was obvious that he wasn't exactly ((19:30)) * %Otsoko ((19:30)) * %Otsoko quite awake yet. He was simply sleepwalking down to greet the others. Sounding a chuff into the air as a greeting, he slipped back into the softer grass and rested his chin on the ground, ears pinned back and eyes closed as his body sprawled out on the ground. "Howdy all.." He mumbled, flicking an ear. ((19:35)) <@Saigh> :: A distant rumbling can be heard, something vaguely resembling thunder.

As she looked between her and Kelais nodding when appropriate. Though... she missed the last few words that were said as a loud noise, like rolling thunder with no end filled her ears.

She said lightly in a bit of confusion. Wondering what to do next, though she had a decent idea of what.

((19:47)) * Valdis followed the other males gaze toward's the females beside Saigh. Turning back to Agro , Valdis drew his lips back in a nervous smile but for some reason felt a boost of his courage. "Its not a big deal , Just have a few things on my mind; It's a pleasure.

Glad no resuscitation was needed." The male was as relaxed as he could be. It was a lovely night out to make friend but then...he felt the small tremor first and the thundering second.

((19:57)) * Haezani is now known as H[A]ezani ((19:57)) * %Otsoko raised his head to the thunder-like noise.

Whimpering and tucking his tail between his legs, he ((19:57)) * %Otsoko ((19:57)) * %Otsoko lowered himself a bit and kept his muzzle to the sky in hopes of catching them in time rather than being too late.

Hundreds of elk are barreling over the hillside. THe first handful can now be seen. They are coming right toward the Hollow!!! :: ((19:58)) * @Saigh felt the vibrations on her paws as she looked upward, seeing no signs of the infamous metal bird. She was really having flashbacks at this point, her hear thundering against the walls of her chest in a desperate attempt to flee though she stood her ground. As she looked about the horizons she noticed a cloud of dust and squintd slightly tryng to get a better look. It hit her just before she saw the first Elk. "Stampeed!!! Stampeed!!! Everyone get out of the way!!!!!" she yelled, turning to Ammorez and Adal Get everyone to the mountain's base, they will circle the hollow to head back to the forest. GO! NOW!" she demanded of the sentry and former sentry before running back into the hollow, toward the stampeed to find anyone else who may be caught. ((20:02)) * %Ammorez would nod quickly as she heard the female's voice rambling with fear in her ears. She lifted her muzzle towards the skies and casted a loud warning howl into the air before taking off towards the left gathering up the wolves she could. "Get moving. Now!" She barked towards her pack members. Running as fast as she could. She would make sure everyone is out of the clearing before leaving herself. ((20:04)) * %Adalwolfa Heard the snorts and Saighs words without hesitation she bolted forward her ebony form nothing but a speeding blurr. Adal had her head up as she ran distingushing stone from wolf and son on. In the terrifying moments that had sudden bombarded the clearing she spotted Otsoko crouched low to the ground. Adal yelled at him to move now. Before circling around sending up beckon howls short ((20:04)) * %Adalwolfa and loud. She continued searching and getting the pack to safety.

((20:15)) * Valdis was caught up in the commotion , His first objective was to run but his mind was thinking of the higher ranks. He bit at his own mind and quickly raced towards the mountain's , Valdis looked back to see if anyone was coming but only found a stray elk. ((20:16)) * %Otsoko raised his head to the call and instantly sprang up, head moving over to Adal. While he was a Sentry in training, Saigh had been right to go ahead and give the more senior members this one. Heading in the same direction as Adal to be sure she would be alright, he saw this as an opportunity to show his skills a wee bit. "A-Adal!" Calling after her as he followed, he was sure to keep on ((20:16)) * %Otsoko ((20:16)) * %Otsoko moving forward despite the numbness that ran through his body, mainly because of the shock that replaced his lazy antics. Stopping midway, he turned to the mountain base and then back to Adal before tearing away from her and heading with the others, his legs nearly coming out from under him as he ran. ((20:17)) <@Saigh> :: The bulk of the herd was now flooding into the Hollow, The thunder of hoofbeats is deafening. They pool into the Rock Valley, many stumbling as they go, causing multiple creatures to fall. Others continue to run, until they are flush against the mountainside. With no where left to turn, they make a u-turn and continue to flee out the other side of the valley. The ocean of hooves and antlers seems to be never ending :: ((20:17)) * @Saigh had made her way through the hollow, looking for others. As she found various wolves she would guide them through the thundering hooves toward the safety of nearby dens or one of the many rocky ledges that lined the hollow. Many times she had to dodge not only hoof and horn but allso whole Elk as the clumbsy beasts stumbled all over each other in their panic. She had finally cleared as many wolves as she could from the stampeed path, in the distance she could hear Ammorez and snarled, She started making her way back toward her voice when she lept a bit too soon and an elk ran square into her. Thankfully she avoided its hooves as it lept over her frame that fell before it. The wind knocked out of her and pain searing through her body she gasped for air, her vision blinking in and out as all the sounds around her seemed to become muffled. ((20:20)) * %Agro saw the dust cloud a split second before Saigh's yell confirmed what it was. The sight of the first few elk had his hackles all the way up and his eyes widen in panic but he got his paws into gear and bolted after Valdis toward the mountains. He had to hope everyone got there safely. There couldn't be time to save someone with the speed those beasts were going. ((20:23)) * %Ammorez would simply look at Adal as she told her to go ahead. She wasn't about to let that happen and besides that, there was someone missing out of their group. She couldn't help but to feel something was wrong. She shook her head and turned back to look at Adal once more, calmly. "Which is why I should stay behind and make sure everyone is out of the clearing. Please, get to the mountain base and make sure everyone is safe there." She ((20:26)) <%Ammorez> She had to go back and make sure everyone was out of there. There was one wolf, however she didn't see leave the clearing with the rest. "SAIGH?" She called out for the missing Alphaess as she tried dodging the stampeed coming at her.

He had no time to stop and think about ((20:27)) * Xiodax the pack scent that teased his nostrils; he was an Alpha and providing a well earned meal for his family. He quickly followed the elk into the hollow and pounced upon a downed elk that had tripped in its urgency to flee, quickly and easily slashing its throat with his fangs, the blood coating his muzzle. His midnight ears pricked, listening to the sounds of the massive herd still coming his ((20:27)) * Xiodax way. That is when his golden gaze lands upon a she-wolf that was knocked to the ground. He could not very well let her get hurt; after all, the stampede of elk was because of him.

Then the large male started dragging the unknown she-wolf to safety, away from ((20:27)) * Xiodax the elk that was flooding this place.

Whoops. Oh well, they were hungry. With a snarl, the male lunged at a nearby elk and took it down in one...or two easy blows, blood spurting all over the ground as he tore his teeth into its jugular.

His comrades were doing fine so it seemed, not that he thought they'd have any issues anyway...they were all exceptionally stubborn.

The male picked up the pace, his paws pounding along with the thundering ((21:34)) * Kaia >> of the elk's hooves and he lunged for the wolf's form, basically rolling her out of the way and shielding her body with his own from the impending potential-death. And there he stood, body crouched and tensed, bracing for impact that didn't come until the tremors started to gradually ebb away from the clearing. Well hopefully this small inconvenience didn't cost them a lot of meal time...And that was his only thought ((21:35)) * Kaia >> before slowly removing himself from the female, whom he didn't even spare a glance as he watched the remaining elk lope off. ((21:42)) * Wreyn would watch the Alpha brute take off for a female trap in the mist of all things before spotting Kaia, following suit. He shook his head and continued to chase after the elk until all of them were out of the clearing. He snorted a bit as he figured that their meal was just sabotaged by females no less.When the last speck of dust settled, he turned back and head for his Alpha and Beta. ((21:43)) * +Trystian (Trystian@3cada3fa.lightspeed.bcvloh.3e6fd2e2.net.hmsk) Quit ((21:44)) * Azzrael yelped a bit, slinking backwards as the thought-to-be-dead wolf began to move. He shuffled behind his alpha and looked down at his paws, shuffling them beneath him as his alpha made the introductions. At the mention of his name he risked looking up and nodding to the Silver pelted female before downcasting his eyes once more and mumbling "We didnt know... We were just hungry..." ((21:44)) <@Saigh> :: Silence fills the hollow as the last Elk have fled back to the forest. The dust would begin to settled and visiblity returned. Those on the mountianside may now get a glimpse of their trampled landscape, and the few wolves left standing upon it :: ((21:44)) * @Saigh 's head swam, her vision fluttered and slowly she was able to breath better and better but it was not going to be suprising if she woke up stiff as a tree branch by the next morning. She winced as she moved each limb in turn making sure nothing appeared to be broken. When he spoke she wanted desperately to tell him to stop yelling butshe realized that the loud noise wasnt his voice... ((21:44)) * @Saigh just an insistant ringing in her ears. "Saigh." she said, ehr eyes closing for a moment in hopes of not letting her vision swim before her again. "Saigh Fail Vae. Alpha of Kladd`atir. What the hell just happ..." she was going to ask but then she heard the mutterings from the little red colored brute that had been introduced as an Omega. She creased her eyebrows in confusion before ((21:44)) * @Saigh finally making two and two equal four. "You... You caused this!?" She stumbled again slightly as she attempted to take a step forward. "What the hell were you thinking?! My family lives here you inconciderate furball!!!" ... yup Saigh had lost it. Normally she was much more well... poised but between pain, anger and a bit of delerium from the bonk she took to the head - proper manners ((21:44)) * @Saigh didnt seem to be on her list of things to provide. ((21:46)) * %Ammorez was about call out for her Alpha again when she suddenly felt this brace of impact coming from another. She was so confused that she couldn't get up right away. But once the dust had settled and she finally reclaim her conscious, she starred up at the the wolf who was now standing over her like a shield. She grumbled and shook her head some. "What in the world..." She grumbled and slowly rose to her paws to look up at the brute. ((21:46)) <%Ammorez> (Now it cut) ((21:48)) <@Saigh> (( loop up at the brute. )) ((21:48)) <@Saigh> *** Cut: look up at the brute**** ((21:51)) <%Ammorez> A sudden rage of anger over-came the female as she suddenly realized what happen. She got up into the males face to where they were pretty much nose tipping. "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?" She asked with anger obviously in her tone. Loud.. Obvious anger. ((21:52)) * %Adalwolfa Had waited for as long as she could the herd had moved on leaving a wake of destruction behind. Sighing she turned and stepped down from the stone. Now standing Adal lifted her head and gave a short sharp toned howl followed by three chuffs. She faced forward again lifting her tail she took lead . " Everyone lets move. The herd should be gone now and we need to find others and Saigh ((21:52)) * %Adalwolfa and Ammo. Stay close ." She spoke in a ancient sound like voice. Adal soon entered a lope and knew none had not listened to her words . Determination could be seen in her darkened honey eyes as her ebony form moved with a new pressing important purpose. ((21:57)) * Valdis could feel the shear pain in his wound now since his adrenaline rush was over for now at least but the sharp pain made the wolf cringe , He followed Adal through the crowd of other wolves but the male moved forward even if the pain was getting worse the more he moved. It was atop his shoulder blade near his neck , At least three inches wide and two deep but it felt like five. Drawing his lip back in a savaged snarl, Valdis deeply growl ((21:58)) (Valdis deeply growl--) ((21:59)) * Valdis as he was not very pleased with the way this day had turned out. Not pleased at all. His attitude was now hostile and snappy, Not a good combination for this male ; No one here has seen him aggressive before. Perhaps today will be interesting. ((22:07)) * %Agro waited with bated breath. He wouldn't move until it was safe. He wouldn't, because he was totally a smart wolf...at least 98.4% of the time. When Adal spoke again he practically burst forward the second she said to go back. He first saw Valdis and then the others...though nobody seemed to be broken, he still felt the need to check. ((22:07)) * %Agro >> Except Ammorez. She'd probably eat him. But from the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt the urge to snarl at the strange wolves. They didn't look right to him, especially since they'd appeared after a stampede just trampled their home. That, and both females were yelling at separated wolves. The male made a loud, frustrated sound, his ears flattening defensively. ((22:17)) * Xiodax 's golden gaze took an appreciative look at the female Alpha, ignoring his Omega for the moment. He tilted his head as the she-wolf became suddenly more aggressive towards him, but it was completely understandable in her situation. In fact, he rather approved of her spirit, though perhaps he would not say so out loud. After all, they had just completed their hunt on another's territory, ((22:17)) * Xiodax though he did not feel threatened in the slightest, even with the other wolves heading their way. Calmly, he answered her questions, as if answering a young pup that had suddenly thrown a tantrum: "I do apologize for the trouble we have caused. We were unaware we were so close to another pack, and, you know that once a herd starts running, you must follow. We will stay, and assist in any way, ((22:17)) * Xiodax and we will share our kills with you. We have taken down more than enough for ourselves, and others were simply trampled over their herdmates into this dense location of yours." A smirk teased at his muzzle. "Alpha Saigh, it is this inconsiderate furball that just saved your furry tail from being trampled. However, we will stay and help where we can. Perhaps we can even hunt together." The male ((22:17)) * Xiodax sat upon his haunches, not in the least bit intimidated by Saigh or by the other wolves fast approaching. The wolves of Kladdatir might outnumber Lunakai, but Lunakai were all males, and Xiodax for his part could be diplomatic. For now. ((22:22)) * Adalwolfa is now known as AdalZzZzLogging ((22:25)) * @Saigh was made even more furious by Xiodex's seemingly dismissive demeanor. When he so eloquantly put that he was sorry and it was unintentional and that he and his wolves would help them out as much as they could and even offered to share their kills she grumbled, her chrome hues shut for a moment as her vision continued to swim. When she opened them she sneered a the brute I think you've done enough. Thank though. she said, venom in her tone. Her head hurt so badly she had no tolerance left. She turned and saw her pack approaching and sighed a huge pack of relief. Despite the situation, it seemed everyne had come out relatively unscathed. She looked back to him and just shook her head. "Saved me from being trampled by the Stampeed you caused. Gee thanks." she snarled before shaking her head. "Fine. Stay, but try not to kill us again hum?" she said distastefully as she turned her back on him dismissively. Sure in the morning she would likely reapproach him in a much more professional way but as for now her options were either go lay down and rest, or rip his head off and mount it in her den as a decoration. She turned and hobbled her pained self back to the den after makng sure everyone was alright. Hopefully that was the end of the days festivities.
