Theia's head whipped around as she listened around. ...Had that been a wolf howl? Perhaps a whine? She couldn't be hearing things, that had to be real! The Apprentice launched herself around, rushing around the camp to try pinpointing the direction of the sound. She couldn't be seeming like some rabid canine now! There had to be a wolf out there somewhere, it sounded familiar? Could it have been Mottled? Was the pack leader in danger? Theia swung around on her back legs, tripping over her own paws as she scrabbled on the ground to regain traction with her claws, her gaze wandering around as she ran around the camp like some wild animal being chased. Where was it, where was it!? She NEEDED to know where that sound came from! The Apprentice bounded left and right, up to a platform, down from that platform. This behavior seemed to be her only thought in mind at the time. That behavior stopped the minute Theia's gaze met with the wolf that made their way in. Mottled Tundra. The Alpha's formerly glistening pelt of whites and greys, some black, was matted with blood. Had she been out there trying to save the rest of the pack from the hunters, and barely made it back now? She didn't seem to be wounded, or she wasn't acting like so. Mottled's dull amber-yellow gaze wandered down to Theia as the adolescent zoomed over without hesitation, almost questioning everything just with the look in her eyes. Mottled lifted a paw, tentatively placing it on the younger wolf's head and shooing them away with a few flick-like signals of her paw. Was the blood on Mottled's coat from the other wolves when she was in the fray? (Your Alpha arrives, for I am done with solo Theia.) |

Primrose looked up, rather alarmed as Theia raced away from the camp. "You two, stay here!" She called out to Cricket and Mothvoices. She didn't need another wolf hurt, poor Cricket already had to make sure Mothvoices was alright. "Theia!" The pupsitter called out, quickly picking up her scent trail. "Theia, what is it?" She called out, speeding up a little. "Oh!" Mottled Tundra! She was back! Primrose's eyes skipped over her coat, noting the dark patches of blood. Oh no, had she gotten hurt trying to help? Where had she been? The she-wolf sped up anyway, whining slightly as she sniffed the blood carefully. "Mottled, what happened? Are you okay?" She asked, tail low but still wagging slightly. "I've found Cricket and Mothvoices, but there's been some... bad discoveries. But still, are you okay?" |

Theia's gaze was filled with awe and adoration. THAT is what she wanted to be! She would become an Alpha one day, she wanted to have the same prideful role, the heart of the pack! Mottled Tundra's gaze skimmed over Theia for a brief moment, just as it did with the rest of the camp. "The Pack's numbers are dwindling, but we shall not fall. We are a pack, despite the low numbers of these tribulation-filled times. Tell me, Primrose, what is the condition of the remainders of the pack? Are they all right?" The Alpha inquired, having trotted a short distance away from the camp's entrance. She had made a turn to face Primrose once more, making herself clear. The Alpha looked harmed, but she wasn't. What a relief! |

"Your den is mostly fine, and the nursery is also pretty clean. I think the hunters den has collapsed and Cricket was able to get into the herbalist's den. I haven't checked for the scouts." I have to go walk the dog lmao, I'll be back in a bit!) |

"I see…" Mottled spoke in a lower-edged tone. The dire news seemed to have crushed her high held mood. Although, it also brought out a much more serious one. "I suppose we will have to make use of a recovery period. It might not last long, but we have lost many in this array. I'm afraid to see things in a new light now." The Alpha started, her tone becoming more sympathetic, more stern. "Our pack might not be able to prevail in these standards. A formerly guaranteed recovery is now no longer guaranteed, and it definitely will not be any bit easier now than it would have been in the past." Theia had broken off when a recovery period had been brought up. The apprentice could still make herself useful! She might have no mentor, and she might be the only apprentice in the pack left, but that meant nothing! She could still be herself, still be useful, and undoubtedly still sharpen and train her already existent skills to be better than ever before! Theia was roaming the camp, salvaging anything ruined, but still usable. She started making piles of these materials, adding to them as she went. She was definitely making a bit of ruckus, but she tended to do so when she worked quickly. |

Blood-scent made their nose wrinkle, and the wolf huffed, looking over Alpha's bloody pelt. It was too easy to imagine a alpha-no, any wolf- having their pelt covered in other's blood for their own sick reasons. Mothvoices assumed the worst and wasn't going to take any chances. |

Oh, and you guys can have more than 5 if you keep track of them all!! I just think 5 is bordering on a lot of work, that's five+ separate reactions if you'd like to write for them all at once. But if you want more, I'll allow it. )) Cricket left Mothvoices's side and made her way to the alpha, her tail held low in respect. Her eyes skimmed the darkened fur in front of her. What had happened?? The young herbalist figured that even if Mottled Tundra had not been hurt by the humans, she must have been so, so close to escaping them. "Are you sure you're not hurt?" She stared into Mottled Tundra's eyes. "I have an open wound salve in the nursery, and I can always look for more herbs later. Or, if you know of any survivors I could help…" Cricket trailed off. She was worried about the answer. |
