Cloud still stayed silent, but rolled to his side to get a better view of the border. He then exhaled deeply and nuzzled his maw into the earth, and then sneezed. Stupid ants...

Raven chuckled. Her gaze was sad as she looked at the empty, desolate land. "Boy am I glad I choose Mountainwood. They say Midnight Moon wolves are evil killers."

Killers could be useful though...for food and protection, I mean. Unless they started attacking each other that would be pretty bad... He fell silent and started pacing around again with his tassle flicking ferociously.

Raven did not reply. "Yes, but killers always compete for leader. And no one can show weakness there. You have to live in a hard shell, cut off from everyone because its too dangerous to have friends." Raven reflected on her own past.

But maybe living in a hard shell would keep you from getting hurt. Emotionally, that is...I dunno... He started walking a bit faster than before, his tassle flicking faster as well. He kept his gaze focused on the ground.

Raven sighed with frustration. "Look, don't get involved with a pack like that. Trust me, its benefits do not outnumber the disadvantages. Why do you keep pacing around like that?"

Cloud stopped pacing and looked into Raven's orbs, his maw almost touching her's and his orbits filled with emotion. I would never dream of joining that pack. Or any other, for that matter. Mountainwood is now my home. I've dealt with those types of wolves before, and know more than you could imagine. He stepped away, and said quietly,It's just a habit of mine to pace... He fell silent.

Raven stopped. "sorry, I didn't know. Ahhh!" She jumped up as a big ant bit her in the paw. She squished it with a satisfied look on her face.

Cloud chuckled softly at the sight, and then rested on his stomach. He noticed the moon coming up and said, Do you want to head back now? It's getting kind of late...

Raven nodded. "Yeah we should. C'mon, I can't wait to get back to my den." Her paws were sore and she was worn out, and ready to collapse into bed.

He nodded and padded off toward the dens slowly, right by Raven's side, with his head held high.

Raven reached the foot of the mountain and began wearily scaling the stones that made up the base. Soon she got onto grass and undergrowth, and the going was easier.

All this traveling was tiring him out. He followed Raven silently while breathing heavily.

Raven soon came to the valley where the dens were, in fact,she almost fell into it. Her exhausted paws somehow managed to take her down into the hollow to her own den. She nodded to Cloud. "I'll see you..tomorrow then." She was still a bit out of breath.

Ya...tomorrow then.,... he stalked off to his own den.
