Arsenio had a grin on his face as he was barraged with Pandora's rage. If he missed anything, it was making her mad. When she had let out everything she was holding back, Pandora had rode away shouting at just about anyone. "I missed you too, Pandora!" He said with a chuckle.
He would admit that there was slight chill after hearing Pandora say Maugrim might be mad at him. The beta wasn't truly intimidating to him, but he knew if they got into a fight he might barely come out on top. He felt sorry that the woman had to single-handedly report in and receive his berating words. That's where Arsenio came in, he was her way of letting out her stress and it didn't bug him. It was her job as a delta to punish her warriors like that.
After that thought cleared his mind he made his way back to Charm and the girl. "Well like Warlock said; I'll be driving you to our new home, Charm. I'm pretty sure the carriage is already prepped for the trip. So all I'm waiting for is you and your patient. If there is anything I can do to help and make the trip more easy just tell me. " He said as he looked down at the lass in Charm's arms.

Demona_Dominique Destine Faola Nightcore Rose thought about what Pandora said then smiled maliciously her eyes turning pure black. "It should be fun." Rose hissed before she turned Maximus around and went in search of Sage. When she found her Rose hopped down and ran over to give the woman a hug crying. "Mrs.Sage Mrs.Sage! My brother refused to show me the territory! I'll never get to be part of the pack!!" as a young girl Roses tears flowed like a river as she buried her face against the woman and bawled.
"Rose, get a hold of yourself. Seriously, there is no time for this nonsense. Everyone is about ready to move down the river to our new home. There is no time to show you the perimeter of the territory now. Is that understood?" she asked. "Now, wipe those ridicules crocodile tears. We Druids are sensitive. We are strong. Once we are settled. Why don't I set you up with someone to show you the territory safely? Sounds like a plan right? Okay, now get going." she encouraged the girl away. Sage walks over to Warlock and Shamrock. "Stand down Warlock. He will hear what I have to say but for now. We must get a move on. Warlock we need a moveable matt to carry the girl in during the move." she suggested. When Warlock agreed leaving Sage with Shamrock she embraced him. "We will talk later but I am glad you are safe." she smiled briefly.
"Sage, I am sorry. I didn't mean to take off but I will take responsibility for my actions. I know I was suppose to be training with Zar'roc but when Puck was reported missing. I had to help." he said looking to Sage with seriousness. "He's younger than myself. Like a little brother even if not by blood." he told Sage which made her smile. "Is the girl okay?" he asked. "Did she say where she's from or say her name." he asked nervously looking over at the girl hoping she might be Clover.

Charm lowered her head to listen to the little girl's answer. "F-fire..." she had began. Cham followed her gaze to the forest when she continue to say, "The fire... ate... everyone." The child shivered in her arms. Was she cold? Scared? Of course she was scared, she was in an unknown pack to her. Then, Charm smiled as the child nibbled at the blanket. A sign of hunger. So, Charm allowed Warlock to place the child onto the comfy matt that was made of moss and put onto the wagon. Nodding with Warlock and hopped onto the wagon with the child.
As soon, Charm was on the wagon with the child, she patted her lap for the little girl to rest her head on and looked over at Puck and Shamrock. "She is alright. Now, hop on boys'," patting on each side of her if Shamrock and Puck wished to join her on the wagon. "You may also join us Niz," she said. Then took out an elixir bottle and began to mix some tasteful herbs with goat milk. Stirring the ingredients together. "My name is Charm. Please? What is your name?," Charm asked sweetly after introducing herself. Handing the goat milk to the girl, "Here, it shall sustain your hunger but if you still feel a tiny bit hungry then I will give you a little something later." Than, that is when Pandora had come asked if everything was taken care of with their new comer. "Yes," giving a straight answer. Looking away as soon Arsenio began to pest Pandora.
When Arsenio had return after Warlock had offer to lead the way and said with a appreciated smile, "Thank you Arsenio. Remind me to make you an energy potion as soon we appear at our new home... We are ready to go and follow Warlock." Then re-wrapping the blanket around the little girl. "Are you boys' hungry?" asking Puck and Shamrock as she brought out a handful of deer jerky for them to munch on.

Once Arsenio got a confirmed answer from Charm, he was ready to go himself. He climbed up into the driver's seat of the wagon and took the reins of the horses. With Charm and the younger ones in the back, he gave a gentle snap of the reins and the horses slowly started to pull the wagon to their destination.
The horses were docile enough that he didn't really need to stay too focused on steering. They knew the drill: follow the rest of the pack which wasn't hard for a pair of horses to do. He reclined into the seat and just enjoyed the ride, He couldn't get to relaxed though knowing that Puck and Shamrock were in the back, yearlings always knew how to cause trouble. The last thing he needed was Pandora or Maugrim coming back here to give him a hard time. Though he wouldn't mind the company, rides made him tired.
It wasn't even ten minutes into the ride before he was starting to doze off. "Great. . .I'm already bored AND tired. . ." He said before giving a yawn and stretching his monstrous body.

Mischief murmured and whimpered with fear as she was taken from Charm and placed on the matt in the cart. She calmed when Charm came to join her and inspected the matt she was on, grasping at the small, mossy fibers with interest. She crawled over to charm and , instead of laying her head in her lap, climbed into it and sat there instead. She looked up at Charm when she spoke her name, and Mischief repeated it. "Charm..." Mischief thought about her own name, "M-momma called me... Mischief." she looked down sadly, but perked up when the bottle of milk was handed to her. She sniffed it, then took a little sip. She liked it, and she was dreadfully hungry. She leaned back against Charm as she wrapped a blanket around her and drank from the bottle as she watched the rest of the group prepare for the journey.
Mischief pulled the bottle from her lips and looked back up at Charm, "Were are we going?" She put the bottle back to her mouth.

Puck was overwhelmed with fear when Nizhoni had brought a girl over to Charm to heal. The poor girl was about the same age range as himself. Puck looked at Nizhoni as though she was capable of doing such a thing. Puck's wild imaginations made him realize how he was traveling back with Nizhoni not too long ago. Warlock had jumped in on the occasion assisting Charm restoring the poor girls life force because she was slipping into the after life. Puck's heart was beating rapidly and once everything was finally settled again Warlock reassured him everything was fine again. He also realized not to mess with Warlock who almost got ugly with Shamrock who had also gone missing. "He's gonna get it." he chuckled to himself thinking to himself quietly. Finally when everything seemed settled again. Pandora had rode over in their direction to inform Warlock about leading the entire pack down the river. Puck chuckled himself crazy when Arsenio annoyed her. He now found himself a new admirer, Arsenio. When Charm told him to hurry up and get into the wagon. He grabbed his stuff and hopped in tugging on Arsenio.
"Hey, Arsenio. If it's okay with Charm and okay with you. Can I sit with you on the drivers seat?" he asked.
Marrok was ready up front waiting for Maugrim and Warlock to arrive. He looked over at Jericho who had randomly picked pack members to help him drive the herd of horses found by Sage down the river.
"Why, don't you lead the herd down the river ahead of the pack. Follow the river. Don't stray or you'll get lost." he shouted and motioned to his companion.
Marrok's horse Dante was restless wanting to get moving and run aside the herd with Jericho.
"Easy Dante. We'll be moving soon." he said talking to the stallion. Marrok looked over at Ephriam hoping the horse they gave him was suitable to ride. Marrok made his way over to Ephriam ready to instruct before Maugrim or Warlock arrived.
"Ephriam, how's your ride? Good? Is he listening to your commands? asked Marrok before instructing. "Okay, your job is simple my boy. While Warlock and Maugrim lead from the head of the group. You and myself will ride down the sides of the entire pack. Our job is to protect the pack and make sure nobody is falling behind. You will report to me immediately about whoever is falling behind. It'll be Pandora's job to take care of the end." he instructed. "Seems easy enough. Luckily we have good size of a pack. Not too big but not very small." he smiled. "Now, we wait for Warlock and Maugrim." he said petting his horse.

Immediately the Shamrock, Sage had always known had returned the moment he began to apologize. She was very proud of him for acknowledging what he had done wrong. While she was away he skipped Zar'roc and tried explaining that everyone was searching for Puck when he had gone missing. Shamrock's explanation on the matter was that he felt he needed to help search for him. Sage couldn't help herself but to embrace Shamrock briefly. When Shamrock asked about the young girl and whether she had shared her name yet.
"Shamrock, I don't believe it's your sister Clover dear. She looks a little older than how old you shared Clover would be currently. I promised you that my brother Druid and myself would do everything we can to help find her. You do believe me right? We haven't stopped looking since the day you were found." she said looking into his eyes and lifting his chin. "We will continue to search and I am waiting for ravens to return with news from our allied packs. Someone is bound to know something about her." she said trying to reassure him. "Now, why don't you join Charm and Puck on the journey. Okay?" she encouraged and Shamrock made his way onto the wagon. Sage looked over to her brother Warlock who disapproved of giving Shamrock false hopes and left to lead the pack down the river. She looked over at Nizhoni. "Will you look over this group and travel with or beside them?" she asked and began looking around for Kora to travel together.

Arsenio was almost half out of it, when he felt a tug. He woke up to see puck asking to ride shotgun. "I don't see why not, just don't scare the horses or I'll have to suplex you when we get to Haven."
He said as he turned around to see how far back they were in the pack. There were a few stragglers behind them, but besides that it put them dead last. So many of the pack was on horseback making it hard to maneuver through with a wagon. They eventually came to a halt as Marrock and the others leading were waiting for the pack to be together. He gave a groan as he threw his arms around the back of the driver's seat. "It sounds like you gave Pandora a hard time while I was gone, Puck. Were you really that much of a pain or was she being over dramatic? She's usually the second one in my opinion. " He asked Puck to pass some time while they waited.

Puck was excited when Arsenio said he could sit shot gun with him up front. The boy didn't hesitate to stay in the back part of the wagon with Charm, Shamrock, and the girl Mischief. When Arsenio asked "It sounds like you gave Pandora a hard time while I was gone, Puck. Were you really that much of a pain or was she being over dramatic? She's usually the second one in my opinion. " Puck chuckled deviant hoping Charm or Nizhoni didn't over hear him.
"Nah, she says I gave her a hard time. I followed Ephriam and Kora to the beach than they dumped me on Pandora which she wasn't too happy about. It was boring at camp. Charm gave me assignments from the book which I already read. She just doesn't know I already read my assignments out of boredom. I am quite the gifted healer. I haven't failed a test of hers yet." he explained. "Although according to Pandora I was a complete pest and wasted a lot of her precious time dragging me around." he shared. "But your right she is being dramatic. Women. I tell you." he crossed his arms trying to bond with Arsenio. It was obvious the boy was craving some male bonding and attention.

As the wagon had begun to move, Puck had asked to sit with Arsenio and Charm answered, "You may." Seeing how happy the boy was and watched him interact with the man. It made her smile to see Puck so happy. Leaving her with the new child who had revealed her name to be Mischief and Shamrock in the back of the wagon. Charm watched Mischief drink the milk and thought on how interesting the child's name was. Mischief. The only thing that Charm could think of now was; what has she gotten herself into? Will Mischief be a surprising child as much as Puck was. This thought only made Charm smile until she heard the child speak. "Where are we going?" she had asked.
"We are going to our new home that is just up the river," answered Charm. Then deciding to work on another energy potion for Arsenio as they rode on. Then noticing the sound of Puck's chuckles but decided to not listen in. "Hungry Shamrock?" asked Charm.

"Sounds like you're on the way to being the next lead healer, Puck. A lot of the skills come from what you remember. That's what my instructor always told me back at the Colosseum. That's what led me to being champion of the place. There, you have thousands of people cheering your name and you're glorified with those before you and treasures of all sorts. It's amazing to have that kind of fame! But sadly one wrong move could be your last and everybody cheers for the guy who killed you. It's nothing but adrenaline." Arsenio told the lad as he filled up with memories both exciting and sad.
He sighed when Puck brought up Pandora some more. "She's a busybody I guess, she's a bombshell with a short fuse. I guess that's what makes her so interesting and fun to toy with!" He said with a snicker and a grin. When he heard Puck's last comment he gave him a shocked look. "Aw come on don't be like that! You just don't like Pandora cause she's older than you! You'd understand if you were my age. Maybe you haven't hit that point or are you already crushing on someone! Go on! You can tell me, buddy!" He said as he joked with Puck as he messed his hair up, up like an older brother would.

Angel looked up as he heard the wagon leaving. It looks like they got everything under control and are heading out. We should perhaps pick up the pace, or do you have a means of travel that I am keeping you from? " He felt bad that he was taking up so much of the young woman's time.

Mischief watched the happenings around the cart with interest, still sucking on the bottle of milk as her eyes followed the movement of everyone. She looked at the boy, Puck, with the most interest. He seemed the closest to her age here, and was wondering if he would like to play with her sometime. Mischief leaned back against Charm's stomach and chest, finishing off the bottle and setting it down. She was still very tired from her ordeal, but she really wanted to play. She struggled out of the blankets that wrapped her an tumbled out of Charm's lap, crawling over to peer over the edge of the cart at the boy in the front seat. She reached up and took a hold of a lock of his hair and tugged playfully, giggling as she bit her lip, smiling mischievously.

A large grizzly grey and black wolf sat upon a huge boulder in front of everyone for all to see. Everyone was finally packed, gathered, and ready to head down the river. He was growing impatient waiting for Warlock and caught sight of him making his way through the crowd. He caught sight of Marrok giving Jericho permission to drive the horses ahead giving him straight instructions to follow the river down. Marrok also had Ephriam with him ready to lead. When Warlock finally made way to the front Maugrim finally spoke one final time.
"My fellow Druids. The hour has come when we make our final move. Your Alpha Druid took it upon himself to search and find the perfect place for us all to call home. We will no longer be nomadic unless you choose to leave us after today. To those of you. I wish you farewell. And to those of you who have remained a Druid from the start and now witnessing a new chapter in Druid history. This land. . .we shall expand and grow. This land we shall plant our roots and let all know Druid run here!" he growled shouting to all and encouraging others to shout with him. "Now, let us meet our Alpha and father of our grand make and when we reach our new home. We shall celebrate! I think we Druids deserve a good celebration!" he growled and lead a howl which encouraged all to howl with him. "Alright, you Druid mutts. I now leave Warlock to lead us home. You are all capable of keeping up. Don't fall behind!" he barked and looked to Warlock who sat beneath the rock ready and making his way to the head. Maugrim followed which began the move.
((Since I am rping the beta Maugrim. I thought let's make a journey of this move down the river. Jumping from this topic to The Mighty Procyon, than finally to Wulfgar. Warlock, you can begin the post and move to the Mighty Procyon. Follow along everyone! ^^))
