Embarassed Times Two

[stain]

Zuja stomped angrily off, trying to go as fast as she could without unbalancing. It'd be much easier if she had at least a leg, instead of a stub that prevented her from doing much. She was about to break into a hobbling run when she heard a shout from behind her. Great. Tark. She wasn't in the mood for anyone trailing on her. Not even her best friend.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"HEY! Zuja, where in the name of Sonne and Mond do you think you're going." He regretted the words as soon as the independent young femme whipped around and he caught her eyes. "Do you think this is a game? That it's just like all the other fights we've had? Well it isn't. Do you know how disgraceful- not to mention embarassing- it is to announce that you're going on your journey to find your place in the tribe and all of a sudden your father says you aren't? Do you think I'm ever going back there? Cause I'm not. I've had it up to here with him!" She swiped her tail at her shoulders to emphasize her meaning. Tark's cheek fur burned, as if he'd been sitting out in the sun in the middle of Lang Sonne. The fact was, it was the middle of Lang Mond. Tark grabbed the younger wolf by her shoulder fur and gave a neat flick, unbalancing her so that she fell onto the cold earth in a heap. "Yes, it was embarassing, but I promised your father I'd protect you, and I intend on keeping that promise." It was a great honour to him when he had been assigned to protect the Chieftan's daughter. But at times like these, it was all just a pain in the tail. The femme got up and glared into his eyes. "Well, let's try and get off the glacier before we're noticed." The young prinzessin replied as she shook herself off.

(Zuja is bold, Tark is italics. Teehee. And if you wonder what those words mean, copy them into a German translator.)

{{occ: Don't worry I did not copy you with the three-legged wolf thing. His sister Lar is in another topic in the glacier. Lar and Lis are brother and sister. Lis was an orphan taken in by Lar's parents who passed away in a fight.}}

Lis bounded up the icy slope, kicking up piles of snow as he went. He was a three-legged wolf, but that didn't stop him from being an incredible runner. He had lost his leg in a battle with a bobcat. He and his adopted sister had been trying to save Lar's parents. They had failed and in the fight he had payed the price. His leg.
Lis was frantic, he had to find Lar!

He had to find her! What if something terribly unthinkable happened to her! What would he do then!

After the attack, when her parents died, he had sworn he'd keep her safe!

Ohh why him?

While he was running he bumped into another wolf.

Ooff!

Lis looked at this wolf, he/she was about twice his size!

I-I-I-I-I-I'm s-s-s-o-o-o s-o-r-r-r-y-y he stammered.

What if these wolf had Lar he had to find out!

Where did you take her! Give her back!

He collapsed on the soft snow sobbing.

Why him?

[stain]

(That's all right. I'm not offended by any look alikes. :3 Just as long as they don't have the same name ect.)
Tark felt the impact of the young wolf and was caught unbalanced. He scrabbled ungracefully and managed to stay on his feet. "Woah, calm down buddy! I'm not going to hurt you. Now what's this about your friend. What happened? Did she dissappear?" The young guard rested his tail on the young whelp's shoulder. "Chill, we'll help you."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zuja knew something was going to happen even before the pup collided with Tark. It might've been the phsycic orb on her side or just a wolves' natural instincts. Whatever it was, he was here now. She watched as Tark took control of the situation. She always loved that about him. Now she stepped in. "Hello there. I'm Zuja and this is my friend Tark. Are you all right?"

[Yami]

Lis sniffled at stood up.

Thank you

He looked at Zuja and Tark

Hey! You only have three legs like me!

Lis was happy that finally some other manen knew what he faced.

Well about Lar, she is my sister. Well sorta of, you see my parents died. I was seeking help, and well help came. Lar's parents took me in and Lar and I became siblings. Not so long ago there was an attack.

Lis sniffled again , remembering the tragic event.

A cougar found our house and attacked. Lar's mom and dad died in the happening, so did my leg.

Lis looked up with pleading eyes

I can't find her will you help?

[stain]

"Oh you poor thing." Zuja's eyes hardened. "Pumen. Der shmuctz." She turned to Tark. "I don't know about you but I'm going to help him. You can either come or go back to my daddy dearest and tell him I'm all alone." She turned her gaze back to the young pup. "Where did you last see her?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tark stifled a sigh. He knew she was going to go off whether he was with her or not. He had his doubts about just running into things, but he knew that letting the princess wander around with no bodyguard would be punished, and if she got injured, it would be death. He shrugged and replied, "All right. I'm in."

[Yami]

Lis was surprised at her kindness.

Umm maybe a day or two ago

Lis thought back to his warm den Lar had whispered something in his ear.

Umm the last words I herd from her were

He thought back deeper, deeper

Gone...be soon.....a day or two....mate

Thats all I remember, I gave her time but shes been gone almost five days! Thats just two long!

[stain]

"Okay, that's good information, but where did you see her last? I need to know that if Zuja can-" Tark was silenced by a sour look from the femme. He didn't see why she didn't want anyone to know about her gift. He sighed inwardly as her eyes connected with his eyes. It was a moment that felt like it lasted forever and ended too soon. He shook himself. "Okay. Lead on mate."

[Yami]

Lis almost laughed out loud. These manens sure had strange ways, arguing and fighting all the time

Umm last I saw of her was in our cave south oh the swamp in Urubujenos grounds

He sniffed the air

Oh where was she!

[stain]

Tark scented the air. A new whiff was coming towards him. He gestured in his direction. "Is that her? Good." Tark was about to say more and greet there guest when Zuja slid beside him. "Tark, may I speak to you?" Her voice was oddly cold. Sighing, he followed her.
--------------------------------------------------------
As soon as they were ten yards away, Zuja whipped around and started yelling. "How can you even THINK, to give away MY secret?! Oh yeah! That's because you don't think!" Tark interupted her. "What's so wrong with other people knowing about your gift!?" Zuja was at a loss for words for a moment. "A GIFT? You think this is a GIFT? Well you've got it all wrong, starker kopf! Leave me alone!" Tark started to follow her but was stopped by a snarling Zuja. "I said LEAVE. ME. ALONE!"

[Yami]

Lis watched the two manens fight.

Hey cut it out!

He ran over

Whats the matter with you two, always fighting!

Oh how strange some wolfs were
