╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ Wandering this far into the forest probably wasn't all that great of an idea, and Luperca knew it. Well, at least that little voice in the back of her head knew it. No one could ever truly be sure what was going on in the Night Warrior Wolf Pack leader's mind since she was always casually switching between moods of curiousity and sudden pangs of guilt, which forced her into being responsible again. But despite all of the protesting from inside her mind, she kept walking, crouching low in the muddied grass to conceal herself if any undetected enemies were around.  .................................................Of the Night Warrior Wolf Pack╚════════════════════════════════════════╝

His paws mashed and dipped into the murky mud that was now beneath him as he walked the watery lands of the swamp, rather enjoying the feeling of soft, cool mud between his paws. He'd just have to get it out after it dried.
Venturing further and further into the dark murky waters, the Torn was wary of his surroundings, the faint little splashes he made as he walked through mud just about the only thing he had heard thus far.
Pausing a moment, the male dipped himself into the mild water, before shaking off his fur, venturing on. that salty feeling from being down at the beach finally washed out of his fur.
"Hm.." He hummed a bit, his tail swishing lightly behind him as he walked, his eyes glancing about, seeing only a few birds here and there.
He didn't really realize that he wasn't the only one in this place.

Scarlett moved through the swap waters with ease. She hated the fact that the mucky waters dirtied and dinged her white fur, but she easily shrugged it off like she did so many other things.

Other wolves were here - Torn could smell them. And thus so, he let out a light sneeze before he coughed several times, roughly.
"Bah..." He grumbled a curse under his breath as he spat off to the side, crimson flying out of his jaws and into the water.
By how strong their scents were, the male could determine where they were from his spot - and one was particularly close, only a couple of meters away from him already, lurking around the swamp just as he did.
Though this one smelled like a female. And one he didn't know.
The fur on his back stood on end as he froze in his spot, letting out a low warning bark. "Who's there?" He growled, his voice gruff and rough and mean sounding. It was only natural - after all, he didn't want to get attacked suddenly on his blind side.

╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ Luperca straightened up out of her crouching walk. The mud was getting way too deep here. If she kept crouching as she had been, she'd probably sink up to her chin in the thick mud. Alright, so this field trip probably wasn't the best idea she'd ever had, but this was more interesting than pack issues... right?
She sighed and kicked herself out of the mud, her black fur looking scraggly from her muddy adventuring. She was about to make her way to the edge of the swamp water to wash herself of a bit, when she caught the scent of two other wolves. Immediately, her ears perked up and she lowered her tail. A male..., that was the closest one, and ... a female. She could tell by the scent that this was someone she didn't know, so she turned and began padding her way in the direction of the male wolf.
But, she froze when a voice growled out. 'He's on the defensive...' Luperca thoughtBut, then again, who wouldn't be in a place like this... She was bored so, she decided she would try her luck anyways.
She was rather close to the male now, he was just on the other side of the patch of reeds that lay in front of her. Since she was obviously already scented, she thought she might as well show herself.
"Alright, alright. You caught me." Luperca laughed in a playful tone as she padded through the reeds and emerged on the other wolf's side. She paused right at the edge of the reeds to make sure he wasn't going to attack, but made her body language suggest that she wasn't any threat. .................................................Of the Night Warrior Wolf Pack╚════════════════════════════════════════╝

His body was stiff as he heard the sloshing of paws moving through thick mud and water, towards himself. And that's when he caught sight of the being, just a few yards from him.
Her playful tone didn't calm Torn any, though. His fur still bristled and stood on end as she decided to approach him.
Torn watched her closely, too, examining her posture and attire with his only good eye. And he shifted a bit to the side as she moved near him, pausing as she paused just at the reeds before him. Seemed she was studying him as well, and thus being so, her body language told him that she'd be..alright for the time being. But in turn he kept his guard high, and didn't change his own body language.
Her scent was new, as he breathed it in, and another low growl automatically rumbled in his throat - just in case.
"Who are you?" He asked then, a bit of an edge in his voice. "Your scent is not familiar with me." Torn had told her, his voice scratchy sounding before he coughed a few times, spitting the bit of crimson that had gathered on his tongue.

╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ By the tone of the other wolf's growl, Luperca could tell that she'd probably been wise to have stopped where she had. Judging by the wolf's reactions, he was still cautious.
Her ears perked forward again at his question. "I could ask the same of you." she answered, but then continued, "But, if you must know, my name is Luperca. I'm the Alpha Female of one of the nearby packs around here called the 'Night Warrior Pack'."
She then watched as the wolf spit something scarlet from his mouth. Was that what she thought it was? She took a whiff of the air to see if it was really what she thought, then recoiled at the strong, sour scent.
'Blood. Definately blood.' she thought, wrinkling her nose. Something with the wolf was not right.
Luperca put her ears back and made like she was going to take a step forward with her front left paw. "Are you alright?..." she began slowly, trying to make no sudden movements, "You appear to be injured..." .................................................Of the Night Warrior Wolf Pack╚════════════════════════════════════════╝

Luperca.., Her name repeated softly in his head as Torn placed the name into his memory, before he saw her move a bit, her intentions seeming to be to come towards him. And at the tone of her voice, the male lowered his guard a bit.
"I'm fine." Torn snorted roughly, his ears twitching a bit as she spoke again. And he shook his head at what she had pointed out. "I'm fine...It's just my lungs." He told her, a slight shrug bouncing off of his shoulders. He honestly didn't care for his coughing and blood spitting - he'd been doing it for years. He didn't know when it started, how it started, or why. But he was use to it, more or less. And most wolves either ignored the fact that he was spitting crimson, or asked him to get help.
"Don't concern yourself over it." Torn had said, his voice low.

╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ Luperca tilted her head, a curious softness in her eyes as she listened to his explanation of the blood. Then, realizing the stranger had let his guard relax just a little, she decided it was probably alright now to ask his name and approach him.
"Alright, if you're fine then, I won't bother you anymore about it. But, if it ever gets worse, you're welcome to come to my pack grounds; we have some good nurse wolves in my pack." she offered, taking a few steps forward, now, "So, I've told you my name. Now, what is yours?" .................................................Of the Night Warrior Wolf Pack╚════════════════════════════════════════╝

"Hmph..Your offer has fallen to my deaf ear." Torn had snorted, his manor rather rude. But he didn't noticed, and flicked his tail about behind him a bit, watching this female - Luperca - as she shuffled towards him a bit, asking of his name, now.
"Fair trade." He snorted softly. "Name's Torn." He added gruffly with a flick of his ear, the male shifting the weight on his paws as he pulled them out of the sticky mud, so that he wouldn't utterly sink.
"What's a female like you doing out 'n these parts anyhow?" He asked suddenly, then. More so out of the blue.
Not like he was saying the female sex of his species was utterly weak, or vulnerable. But it was more or less unusual for a female to be walking about the muck and wet of the swamps. Especially with those....stranger humans living in their little tribe

╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ Luperca wasn't surprised when the male declined her offer so bluntly. Since she'd became the alpha female of her pack, she'd had run ins with all sorts of wolves... rather on the pack grounds or not.
"Alright." she replied back, "But the offer is still open whether you take it or not." This, she remembered is why she'd been made pack leader. The Elders in her pack had always boasted to one-another about her "kind heart" and that finally had caught up with her when they were electing a new pack leader.
"Nice to meet you." Luperca greeted, remembering her manners, then began to clean her muddied black coat off a bit with her tongue in between talking. Her attention was grabbed when he asked her what she was doing out at a place like this, and she straightened up, looking rather like a kicked puppy. The reason? Well, in truth, she was escaping to take a break from her pack duties. Sure, she was happy when she had been chosen as the pack leader, but she was still so young, and she hadn't quite been ready to give up her freedom. Thus, she was out here.
"Well..." Luperca answered, biting her tongue, "It's a long story..." she was looking down at the ground and scuffing her paw in a little pool of murk. .................................................Of the Night Warrior Wolf Pack╚════════════════════════════════════════╝

Torn let out a gruff snort at her words of the open-ended offer, and he rolled his eyes a bit, before nodding his head slightly as she greeted him. Her manners were good, but he didn't care for them.
Hell, not like he used any real "manners" himself anyways.
The fact that she cleaned her fur whilst talking, though, made him grumble something under his breath in annoyance. Sure, one was to keep themselves clean if one wanted to stay warm, should they head into cooler terra, but in a place like the swamp, cleaning ones self was of little matter. No matter how clean you got, you'd get dirty again in the end. Least with all the mud around.
But his posture changed a little when Luperca had changed her own, looking like some kind of pup as she spoke.
It irked him, a pack leader looking this way, and he let a low growl vibrate in his throat.
But he ceased it before it got any louder, and just shook his head, before shifting his weight in the mud once more, looking at the female with a somewhat interested look on his face.
"Then you can tell me the story whilst we walk about. This mud is seeping too far into my paw pads." He coughed a few times as he said this, thankful that the red liquid hadn't gathered in his mouth this time.
And with that, he turned on his heel sharply, heading off into a random direction - towards a small gathering of Weeping Willow trees; their long leaved vines dipping down into the water.
"Unless you'd rather stay, and sink in the mud to let the catfish bite at your flesh."

╔══════════════ ☾Ƚuperca☽ ══════════════╗ Luperca ducked her head a little when she could hear what sounded like the beginnings of a growl begin in Torn's throat. She had guessed it was probably because of the way she was acting, and he was right. This was no way for a pack leader to act. So, she straightened up and her eyes widened a little in shock at his asking about her story.
A sheepish expressing came accrost her face. Telling the story might only make her seem more inexperienced, and therefore might irritate the male wolf even more, but somehow or another, she found herself following the male at a fast pace towards some trees with drooping vines that she recognized as weeping willows.
In truth, they were actually her favorite tree. She could remember playing in their vines when she was a small pup.
"Well, you see, I was elected as a pack leader when I had just finished my training, because our current pack leader had passed away." she began, falling into pace beside Torn. She hoped she wasn't annoying him.

Torn's right ear flicked to the side a bit as Luperca spoke to him, his chewn left ear not providing any help with the gentle echo of her voice. Damn that bear for gnawing on it until he was deaf.
But he supposed it wasn't that bad, the sucking and slurping of the mud trying to eat at his paws and the sloshing of water wasn't that noisy, seeing as he moved at a decently slow pace - the female following alongside of him.
And as a result of her beginning story, the male let out a huff at what she told him. "Elected" pack leader. Bah! What he learned was that you had to fight brutally hard with the current leader, and kill them or banish them from the pack when you wanted to become leader. And even if the old passed, one would have to fight to gain that right with other competitors. Right?
Not like he had much room to talk, he supposed. Torn wasn't birthed and raised in a pack. no. Just he, and his mother. Out by themselves in the blasted cold winter, with anything but food. The bears that snuck out during their sleeping period often threatened them with attack.
And that's how the brute was blinded in his left eye, and left deaf in his left ear.
But looking back on the past wasn't what he was doing right now. He was listening to this she-wolf's story. Get to "know her" Better.
"Go on." He muttered quietly, his voice deep as he spoke in such a low tone.
[don't worry about it~ :3]
