Lyra had just finished checking and remarking the borders, all was silent. And now was wandering around the territory becoming more and more familiar of the territory with each step she took. She was now a member of the Empire, beginning her new life as a soldier. She still had yet to meet the rest of the soldiers and hunters, but now she light her mind wander with her. She looked up, night now lay across the thawing tundra, the stars glittered like ice in the sky, the full moon hung low, casting shadows on the ground, making her green and brown pelt shine silver. She was tired from walking the borders so she lay down, her breath billowing in the chilly night air, listening to the sounds of the tundra. And soon lay her head down and fell into a light sleep.
Lyra opened her eyes, she hadn't realized she had drifted asleep. She looked up trying to judge the time. It must be around midnight, she thought. She slowly stood up, shaking the snow from her fur. She had no idea what to do now, she had patrolled the borders, it was not her duty to hunt, she had no mate or pups to return to. She sighed, she wished she had a family and was surrounded by ones who loved her to help her get used to the snows of the tundra, the customs of the Empire, but she had none of that so she pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind.
She was a bit hungry, so she hoped she was allowed to hunt and eat it, instead of bringing it back for the rest of the pack. She lifted her nose to the air, searching for the scent of prey on the light wind. She soon caught the scent of a jackalope and started to follow the trail, blocking out everything except the scent of jackalope.

((This will be before Moonrose joins the Children))
A crimson furred Lyxxus prowled through the snow, her limbs and fur stiff from the cold. Her right foreleg was ivory, nearly blending with her surroundings. Her sapphire eyes scanned the tundra, the frost was visible on the skin of the scar crossing her left eye. Her claws were sheathed and her three tails were tucked between her legs.
Moonrose shivered when her stomach growled, a constant reminder of how hungry she was. She had traveled a long way without eating, and she was still in pain from the injuries that rival alpha had given her when her pack was massacred. The very thought of the bloodied bodies scattered around her at that time made her sick, which only made her hungrier.
"I n-need t-to eat..." She chattered, trying not to bite the tip of her tongue off, "Before I d-die..."
It was dark out when Moonrose slowed her walking, though she was sluggish already. The stars glittered in against the black blanket covering the sky, but, as beautiful as it was, she knew she wouldn't last much longer to see such beauty again. She glanced at the sky once, fur bristling when the light breeze hit her, then lowered her gaze, only to spot a jackalope.
Her stomach twisted in pain when her eyes landed on the morsel, telling her to go after it. Her body was renewed with energy as she crept forward, allowing swifter and steadier movements than she had been given earlier. Her claws were out and her mouth was watering just at the sight of the animal.
Closer and closer Moonrose crept, unaware of the green Yagi nearby.

Lyra, now in sight of the jackalope, didn't notice a crimson furred Lyxxus stalking it aswell. Head and haunches down she readied to leap, not wishing to run, though she was fast and could probably catch it. Only then did she notice the Lyxxus she was closer to the Jackalope than her. Her scent was not from the Empire and she was going to take her prey. She crept forward no longer intent on the Jackalope, but on the tresspasser.
Finally a chance to prove herself as a soldier. Her pelt blending into the melting tundra, she merely looked like a muddy patch of grass from afar. Teeth bared and antlers down threatningly she was now only a metre away. She prepared to leap waiting for the crimson Lyxxus to come a bit closer. The female was close enough. She leaped landing lightly in front of the tresspasser snarling. The Jackalope had already bolted into the safety of its burrow. She bent down swinging her antlers knocking the feet out from under the she-wolf. Then jumping back out of the way in case she decided to lunge.
Now close up, Lyra realized that the strangers fur was covered in blood. But that was still no reason to tresspass and steal prey. "Who are you and what do you think you are doing, tresspassing on the lands belonging to the Empire?," she demanded. She would wait for the Lyxxus to get back on her feet before asking any other questions.

Moonrose, sapphire eyes completely intent on the jackalope in front of her, was oblivious to the danger she was about to face. Her paws sank into the melting ground beneath her, claws and fangs baring themselves in order to be ready to kill her first meal in days. Her stomach wanted to growl at her, but she kept it quiet as to not scare her prey. Her muscles coiled and she prepared to spring with what energy she had left.
However, there was a sudden flash of green in front of her and, before she was aware, her legs were knocked out from beneath her by sharp antlers. She let out a yelp as the tips lightly sliced open her already bloody skin. Moonrose hit the ground with a thud, pushing the breath from her lungs. She watched her attacker jump back in defense, but Moonrose had no intentions on attacking her back. She had no strength.
The she-wolf's question rang in her ears and the Yagi waited patiently for her to stand until she received an answer. Though, Moonrose was exhausted, unable to pull herself back to her feet. She wanted to, her instinct telling her to, but she couldn't. She laid there before the wolf, staring up into her blazing emerald eyes. Her pelt was heavy and her throat was dry, but she managed an answer.
"I mean not to trespass..." Moonrose rasped, pulling in a breath. "I am Moonrose... My pack was just massacred and I'm the only one left... I haven't eaten in days... Forgive me... I'm only trying to survive..."
The three-tailed Lyxxus remained laying on the ground before the wolf, no fear of dying, though she knew it was greatly possible. This wolf could kill her, seeing as she had just attacked her. Though she was young, Moonrose did not have much fear of the situation she was currently in.
A smile broke out on her face, "If you decide to kill me, then at least let me know your name before you do..." She held the gaze of the warrior before her, not in a challenging or aggressive way, more curious as to what she would do.

anvindr!
Being the good little pack member he was, Anvin was patrolling the Tundra. Or rather, flying over it. He had already done his hunting duties today, surprising a few Jackalope's and a small fawn with death. He yawned, looking down onto the founding field.... and what did he see but a soldier seemingly harassing a bypasser. Or erm, intruder. He rolled his eyes, jeez did the soldiers really need to jump on every innocent who just wanted to pass through the lands? Spiraling down, he landed on the Founding Field not too far from the two.
Clearing his throat and walking forward he had the mad idea to ask what was going on here. But than, that would make him seem like a leader instead of a mere hunter. So, he kept his stature un-challenging and announced his presence."What do we have here?" He smiled. "My dear trespasser, the wolf who's pack resides on this lands that seems to be intent on beating your self for trying to grab a bite to eat is...Lyra. Least I think." He shrugged, not really giving a care about what went on.

Moonrose received no answer from the she-wolf, for both were intent on the Keiyou whom had taken ground beside them. The struggling Lyxxus slowly turned her glazed, sapphire eyes upon him as he spoke, feeling some wave of relief wash over her exhausted body. She couldn't take much more of anything; her entire being was ready to give out on her.
"Lyra, eh...?" Moonrose forced herself to move, though every muscle inside of her was screaming against it, and sluggishly got to her feet. She was shaking badly, weak from lack of food and water. "A lovely name... All I ask is for you to let me pass."
Moonrose was thin, clearly visible even at night. She moved to walk around Lyra and away from them both. Her vision began spotting black as she only made it a few feet. She wasn't quite sure what occurred next. Either Lyra had attacked her again, or she simply blacked out, collapsing on the ground.
