Amoungst the Rubble [Open]

This was it, borders to yet again another pack. Her nose wiggled about as she smelt the markers, but it wasn't enthusiasm that set across her body language. No, it was an anxious air and her ears remained back for a long time as she decided where or not to call attention to herself. Leaving would be okay too, but it wouldn't be the crossing of a new threshold to a new life. Nor, would she get anywhere within the lands if she took a vow of silence and slipped into the shadows. To add, practicality called for her to join a pack. Winter being no season to screw around and play tag with death.

Reluctantly need won over want and her head lifted. Her marbled cranium lifted with parted jaws to let out her loudest announcement, holding it out for as long as possible before her lungs protested further and it cut to a sudden stop. Elexzra's mismatched gaze scanned the area with a level stance before letting her ears pivot about her head. Do I really need to do this? Her brows pulled up in an anxious expression before she let a sigh escape her maw. Most likely...got to start somewhere... This transition into being in a pack once more, if she was allowed, would be a difficult one. For so long she had been a loner and for so long she hadn't sought out for the company of those she may end up trusting one day.  Even her language with her own brethren was a bit rusty.

As her mind was skipping about in many scattered directions the howl that came caused her to jolt. Its surprise wasn't too much, but truly she half expected for someone to just appear. As for staying behind the borders till invited was something beat into her as a young whelp. It came naturally, no matter how long she had been isolated and now her legs stiffened. Mixed eyes scanning about for another canine form to appear and as expected she didn't have to wait too long. Elexzra did not fear him, not in any shape or form. If he were to beat her or kill her was his choice and to the woman it didn't really matter. Looking at his form though, she inspected the contortion of his muscles and his sturdy frame work. Twitching her nares it was clear he was the head honcho. Averting her eyes in a respectful manner they soon fell as if looking at his paws. Tail dangling behind her in a neutral fashion as accented sounds danced from her lips.

"I come to seek a maison (home) that is if you allow so sir." If he had come and with that air about him, then he was certainly the alpha. Glancing up she sought out some indication that he may be willing to allow her in. All she wanted was to leave the ugly past behind and start new. Even though, logically, she knew that starting new wasn't possible. Still Elexzra ha to hold onto some speck of hope. Whatever hopes the ess had left within her soul.

Kikio lifted her head as her auds perked, the scent of two wolves were nearby and she wondered if there would be conflict. The milky colored fae took gentle strides toward the two, when she caught sight of a female infront of her she slowed to a stop. Her ligaments had been covered in the mud and snow slush, it seemed to stain over her mango markings. Her auds flattened a bit as she continued her journey toward the two. Kikio only came to a halt when she only had ten steps to match the other fae's position. Hello..." She barked, only to. emit a greeting to let them know that she was there. Kikio's orbs examined the other feminine, then the brute before her. He seemed to radiate 'alpha' and his posture gave it away. He was indeed large and this seemed to build confidents in herself. Her cranium dipped as a greeting toward the two, her jaws then parted way for her words, "Sorry to intrude, I am Kikio Novelty." She said softly in a kindand pleasant tone. Then her lips offered a polite smile. Her optics blinked as she awaited the two to respond.

Kiko listened as the brute spoke toward the other female, then his words flowed into her directions. Her multi-colored optics blinked softly before her maw parted ways with her pearly whites, her vocal cords. vibrated a responce, "What every wolf wants. A pack and somewhere to belong." Her mango and covered limbs carried her closer toward the other lovely feminine that now stood beside her. As she had walked she had felt herself sinking slightly into the slippery slush below her. Kikio examined the brute more, she then looked away as if she had little to no interest in the male, even if he was notably large. Her soft and spotted with mango dots, banner switched side to side gently. Then her cranium turned toward the wolf known as Quinton. "I wish to join your pack-if you allow it of course." Kikio said in a happy tone, as she tried not sniff the female beside her. She wanted to know more about her without asking all the questions that could be answered by simply a whiff of her scent from her fur or even her tracks. She iggnored the feeling they could speak later, she then turned her attention back toward Quinton.

Twitching an ear Elexzra's eyes darted towards the voice of another. Feminine and a maiden fare look about her, only for a few silent moments did she stare. Not sure what to make of the woman herself before deeper tones edged into her auds. Turning her head she dipped towards the brute eyes remaining to his paws before she lifted her gaze slowly to his chest. Making her eyes more noticeable as she spoke. Knowing some individuals liked to see ones eyes to detect a lie or not. Before she spoke though she let him finish speaking. Let Kikio finish answering and then it was the movements of the other woman that had her darting her head back up. Flicking her ears back as she observed her in silence.

Closeness, she didn't like it. No matter the gender. Shaking her head mismatched eyes turned back to the man as accented tones came out in a steady stream. "My apologies sir. Elexzra Baylentine and I come for...new beginnings." That was the truth. She just worded it oddly because she wasn't so sure how to word things to sound plushy. "I can assure I will not be useless." The woman had to get in. She owed it to her lost loved ones and especially her whelps, she was mostly living for them. Full loyalty to a pack, this would be something new. Yes, she had been a somewhat faithful member to her old pack, but she wasn't too involved. This one, surely, Elexzra could do something. Be it hunting, healing or guarding. She didn't care.

Kikio moved a bit to the side when she noted the other female's uneasy aroma and posture. Her auds perked as the brute before her spoke, she waited until he was done to speak, she then noticed that it was dark. Night fall had came and was there for some time, "Thank you monsieur. I am good at fighting, so...how about knight?" She spoke in an even tone before glancing toward the other female. She wondered what rank the female was good at. Feeling the tug of sleep climbing.its way to her she blinked as if to wake herself. It didn't help her that Quinton yawned and she then caught the contagious yawn and her jaws parted widely followed by. a loud yawning whine. Kikio shook her head as she felt under the influence of alcohol. Her. vision blurred and her eyes watered her steps would be unsteady and she just wanted to lay down. Sleep was what she wanted and if it wasn't soon she'd fall asleep standing.

Perking her ears up in surprise Elexzra was rather shocked to hear so few numbers existed here. In her old land the packs were at least fifteen weak and at most thirty strong. The shock itself showed in her gaze, but it died down when good news reached her ears. Faintly a smile pulled at the sides of her lips and a slight nod of her head was given. Soon Kikio came in, saying her desire to be a knight. Tilting her head she thought it peculiar that she knew French. Due to a cats curiosity she let words slip out. "Vous parlez français?(You know French?) Deutsch auch? (German too?)" Not many others knew both languages from where she came from so it also came as a surprise that she may also know it. Shaking her head she recalled the questions from earlier. "Whichever rank that is assigned. I'm well versed in herbs and hunting, being a...knight? I could adjust to." Being a babysitter though, that she'd have trouble with and may hold some resistance with.

"As for coming to Alaska, I just kind of ended up here and decided to stay." Glancing to the other feminine figure she looked about ready to clock out. This peaked her interest also. Now that she thought of it she wasn't all too tired. Maybe from traveling, but she was a little more active in the later hours. Am I supposed to be this stiff? She was assuming not. The man was sitting down as they all conversed. It was odd in many ways. Back home she remembered the "Soul Ripper" Kersov being a brutal thing. Half his face mangled and rumors of having his victims skulls dotted across his borders. So, why wasn't this brute like that? Maybe it was just that the lands she was from was truly just brutal. Yes, it had to have been if it took innocent souls. Shaking that from thought Elexzra sat down. Dipping her head once more. "Thank you sire."

Kikio grew a bright sleepy smile on her maw when Elexzra asked her if she spoke french and german. How did she now? Well the German part anyway. She simply nodded and gave another long yawn. She turned to Quinton who also spoke french. Her first language had always been french but her parents encouraged her to learn English, since most wolves knew it. German, however, was her choice, although she is not fully fluent in speach she can understand a great deal of the words and sentences. She gave a friendly wag of her tail before seeing a blurred figure approach her and place herself upon its back. Kikio then noticed that the large brute had placed her on his back. At first she was startled but then she just went with it. With a yawn her eyes slowly closed before sleep. drug her to its land of make believe and imagination. A fait conversation could be picked up but soon it was lost.

Her ears perked forward in complete shock as all of them spoke French, but the German part was more so a question. Asking if she knew that language too out of curiosity more than anything. It was, comforting, oddly comforting. Enough so her tassel waved behind her just lightly in a slow motion. Truly, this was the first time she'd come across this situation period. Quinton began moving and Elexzra's eyes followed, only to widen as he picked Kikio up. If it were her she would've immediately jumped off because fact was, it would be way too embarrassing. Kikio, however, just stayed there and fell asleep. Tilting her head she deemed the two just odd individuals. As the brute began walking off, Ele's own paws hesitated stepping forward to walk along side him, but he began speaking so she ended up jumping into action anyways.

Long legs being held back to keep a steady pace with the bulkier man. When he asked if she rather take in the scenery or talk, an aired laugh and huff mixture left her nose. "Not much to talk about sire, but either way I'm content." Faintly a smile pulled her lips as took in the little things. The different scents, how her body had to go over certain areas of the land and such things. She let the silence stay awhile before her voice was hushed a little. "Thank you..." With simply that out in the air Elexzra fell back to her natural silent demeanor.
