Phaidra glanced at Hisoka and smirked a little. "Aye, if you two are ready, we shall set off...t'will be easier now than it will be later. Come."
Silent after that, she led them from the cave to the drop-off and back up on 'normal' ground, pausing to glance at them out of the corner of her eye. "Two choices - I can carry you both, albeit a bit awkwardly, to your Clan by wing. Or, we can walk. Your choice."

Corann was not one to go searching for someone in particular, so that day's event was somewhat unusual. Ruby orbs scanned his surroundings for any sign of the pale foxen. Her fur would blend into the white ground nicely, but if she was about Corann would be able to smell her. Undetecting her presense, he assumed she was busy with issues of her clan. Still undecided on a house of his own, Corann roamed throughout Drachenwelt alone, for the most part. Polaris had tried time and time again to convince him to join the Earth house to be in his company, but it seemed the least likely reason for him to join. During the past years the two tigon brothers grew farther apart.

Tasaaki paused for a few minutes, thinking, and then said, "No, I don't want to impose anymore of your hospitality. We shall walk. Is that all right?" Worried she was rude, but not wanting to say anymore, Tasaaki held her breath for Phaidra's answer.
Hisoka was playing with his pet squirrel Tsuzuki, but looked up when he heard "walk" instead of "fly". Pouting mentally, he decided it was better to be polite instead of rude, so he waited for the answer, but returned to playing with his pet squirrel.

Corann did not hear any voices coming from the burrow so very near him. Any sounds the three hybrids created from within was muffled by the snow. Continuing through and growing bored of his search, the pale tigon decided to rest for a moment. Corann was not tired, hungry or worn out in the least. But if he was, he would not act upon these weak feelings anyhow. The reason behind rest was merely boredom.
It had been weeks since he had seen his brother or any other hybrid for that matter. He would not admit to needing their company, but the time alone had grown tiring. Emitting a sigh, the spiral decorated male continued to glance about his surroundings. How far from the earth house was he?

As Tasaaki walked, feeling Phaidra's ever looming presence, she blinked as she noticed a familiar tigon she hadn't seen in months. He looked to be resting, but he also looked... bored? Blinking again, she also wondered why he was in the Western area... "Corann?" she called, hoping he'd hear her. "Corann, what're you doing here?" she asked as she approached closer.
Hisoka was merely playing around as he followed Phaidra and his sister, but hearing his sister call out an odd--yet familiar--name, made him pay attention and look up to see who she was talking to... a tigon? What was a tigon doing in the snowy territory of Phaidra's and the Foxens? Oh right! His name's Corann. He's probably looking for Ainia... she's with the clan, I think... He stayed silent, wanting to hear the tigon's excuse for being in the northern-western areas.

Corann's eyes had fallen shut and his breathing had slowed, bringing every small sound to his ears clearly. It was peacefull and relaxing when a sudden foxen voice could be heard from nearby. Opening his lids slowly, he looked out to spot a dark foxen, clearly marked like the one he had met more recently. Tasaaki, he remembered her name to be. Smiling softly and lifting his body from the thick snow, he answered simply, "I often wander." Not even if she asked would he admit to searching for the pale foxen female he cared dearly for. Shaking his thick fur, he sent snow flying in every direction. Although he had been settled for only so long, much of the snow had embedded itself in his thick cold-season coat.
When he had almost gotten comfortable with the thought of speaking with a familiar hybrid, he spotted another foxen following behind. His blonde pelt brought Corann's attention to it imedietly - Hisoka. He felt himself cringe at the thought of dealing with Tasaaki's younger companion, or brother as he was known as now. Shaking the annoyance from himself, he looked back to the femme and bowed politely, "And what brings you here?"

Tasaaki gave a look to Hisoka, knowing her brother annoyed Corann, and then she turned, and gave the tigon a small smile. "What brings me here... is that my brother got us lost." Tasaaki sighed as she related the story. "You see, my Clan lives around this area somewhere, but then our leader decided to start a celebration of the Clan's new home with a hunt. I'm the Scout Leader, or Hunt Leader. My brother, being a foolish cub, decided to be a nuisance and ran off. I had to chase after him, and following him is not easy, especially since his blonde coat is only oh so much darker than the snow. We found a very helpful hybrid..." Tasaaki gave a meaningful glance at Phaidra, who had been very quiet the entire time. "...She calls herself the Aviandra," the dark foxen explained. "Her name is Phaidra." Tasaaki paused, and looked closely at the tigon. Strange... What IS Corann doing in Elsin Tundra, the western coast? Tasaaki blinked, and mentally shook herself. "Corann... what... what exactly ARE you doing here? If you're looking for someone, our friends are most likely elsewhere. You won't find another Foxen this far out." Tasaaki's eyes narrowed as she observed the giant tigon. "You were looking for Ainia, weren't you?" she teased lightly as realization dawned on her.
Hisoka winced at the look Tasaaki sent his way, but he gave her an imperceptible nod and stayed quiet, watching the tigon warily. Corann didn't seem to like him all that much, but he supposed it was Corann's nature to dislike romping kits like him. Oh well... Hisoka quirked an ear at the mention of Ainia, and had to fight hard not to smirk. His sister was very blunt, but sometimes she was too blunt. But that was the way she was, so those who knew her had come to appreciate her honesty all the more, because she didn't lie. She did, however, gentle her opinion a bit so that she didn't sound rude, but otherwise she stated exactly what she wanted to know, and what she wanted others to know. He sighed. Too many times have I been on the brunt of her misgivings... he mused, and then returned to the conversation at hand.

Phaidra stayed silent, even after being introduced. She had stopped upon the meeting of the other Hybrid, quiet and motionless, sitting in the snow. Her eyes held themselves half open, but the orbs underneath them were quite alert...and not very welcoming of this Tigon. She wasn't irritated by his presence - indifferent would be a better word. Tucking her wings close to her, the creature simply waited, her tail lightly swaying back and forth.
((DANGIT. I wanna write more but mom's making me get off...gah ._.))

Tasaaki's reason for being where she was made perfect sense. Hisoka had only ever intended to do good, but more often than not he got the two into some sort of trouble. Corann secretly prayed that the two small hybrids would never run into any serious trouble; he did not trust Hisoka enough to keep them out himself. When she continued, relaying her new found position, the male tigon nodded approvingly, "You are worthy of such a fantastic position. I wish you luck and hope it suits you well." The ending of his sentence went quiet as he noticed the beautiful new hybrid behind the two foxen. His crimson eyes nearly lit up as he had realised he never saw anything like her. Phaidra... he replayed in his mind, making sure he would not get it wrong in the future.
Although from the corner of his eye he was still watching the beauty known as Phaidra, he listened close to what Tasaaki was saying. The mention of Ainia seemed the loudest and his fur began to stand on end at the accusation, "Tasaaki, I do not choose where I wander, I merely follow my will.." His words were far more aggressive than his original statement and he could not keep his eyes locked onto any of the three hybrids before him. Looking down towards the soft snow-covered ground, he growled lowly, but not loud enough for anyone to hear.

The dark Foxen grinned. "There's no need to be... aggressive, Corann. But I see that all you do is wander, and that is fine. I will stop my teasing." Stretching, for it wasn't good to remain still in the cold for long periods of time, she cocked an ear at her brother. He was behaving... that in itself was amazing and unusual, also annoying. Sighing, she smiled. "Would you like to accompany us back to my Clan? Mikel will be pleased to meet you, of that I'm sure. Or, you can continue your wandering..." Ainia, as a good friend to Tasaaki, would be delighted to see the tigon, of that Tasaaki was even more sure of. "Phaidra... please continue your guidance," Tasaaki asked politely, then nodded to her brother. He meekly nodded back, and stood. Smiling approvingly, she looked at the other two hybrids, awaiting their answers.

Corann was glad the foxen dropped the subject, even more importantly the degrading assumptions. As fond as he was of Tasaaki, he would not tolerate that sort of treatment from any hybrid. Looking out towards the direction of their clan, Corann seemed thoughtfull. It would be wonderful to visit the home in which Ainia called her own, but he was nearly sure it would be impossible. "Tasaaki? Is the Eslin Clan not forbidden to any other hybrid other than foxen? I am not a member of the clan, let alone a foxen..." His tone had lost the aggressiveness and he hoped he did not upset his companion. Often his anger got the better of him, but truly he did not wish to do anything about it. Corann's power, force and anger was part of who he was and what he hoped would lead him forward as a great leader.

Tasaaki blinked. "That's an excellent question, Corann. I, truthfully, am unsure. The Alpha of our Clan never specified... but considering my Clan, we like to wander, and making friends is very important... I'm pretty sure the Clan will come to find Hisoka and I soon enough, if we do not find them first. Don't worry about it, Corann." Tasaaki's eyes said otherwise, her ruby orbs filled with worry and doubt. What else can I say? I'm still a little new to this Scout Leader thing... Sighing, she shuddered at the thought that Corann might kill some of her Clan members, or worse, he'd be killed himself. She wasn't sure what the rules were, but hopefully Mikel would greet Corann with open paws.

"Neither you nor I are Foxen or a member of the clan - more unlikely that hostility will be displayed t'wards us, seeing as there's strength in numbers, I believe. I am not expecting hostility, but should there be any, I would keep that in mind." she said quietly, lifting herself from the snow. She lazily cast her eyes over the lot of them - Corann, particularly - before taking a few steps in the direction of the clan.
"I would very much like to keep going, so please, young one, make your decision as to whether you will be joining us or not." she said quietly, looking directly at Corann. There was no anger or annoyance in her voice, or any degrading tone lent to the 'young one' comment - he was, after all, young, compared to her. Youth could often be more intelligent than adults, as they were untainted by a potentially harmful society, so it could even be taken as a compliment on some level.
Not...that she cared how he took it.
Silently, she took yet a few more steps, and halted, now a little ways from the group - the moment she heard footsteps behind her, she would continue on.

Although the spiral decorated male listened carefully to what Tasaaki had said, he did not take it completely to heart. It would make perfect sense for her to butter up the truth in order to make it seem more appealing. The feeling he felt inside was what he often went by and never once had it strayed him from the path he was currently on. "I feel it would be best to greet Ainia once she is off of the clan territory. There is much land that is open to both the foxen clan and others..." Watching the two foxen, he continued slowly, "I do not worry about seeing Ainia. I know in time the two of us will meet."
When Phaidra began speaking, the tigon quickly looked towards her, paying mind to her words. Once "young one" was spoken, however, his brow was furrowed and he stepped farther from the group and in the direction of a farther area, covered in snow, "I will be leaving now to explore this land so unseen by my eyes before. It was a pleasure to meet you Phaidra, and to see you again Tasaaki." His farewell did not include Hisoka, but red eyes narrowed on the male as he left.

Tasaaki bowed her head to Corann. "It was good to see you again, as well, Corann," she murmured, and then said to Phaidra, "Um... yes. We may go now. I just now caught the scent of one of my Clan members." She glanced once at Corann then began to make her way across the snow easily, her body built perfectly for such conditions.
Hisoka glared right back at Corann, his normally cheerful, warm, sky-blue eyes now the color of icy-coldness as he turned and followed after his sister, scowling over the tigon. He couldn't put a paw on why he and Corann did not get along, but he'd an idea as to why. Despite his trying, he could not get the tigon to become friends with him... it was probably his loose, happy-go-lucky nature that caused Corann to despise him, not that he cared; the tigon needed to loosen up some, that was for sure. Pfft. At least his sister's cuter and nicer, he thought to himself, before his thoughts focused on the the tinix he'd met a long while back. Sighing wistfully, he trailed after his sister and Phaidra.
