A delirious wolf wrapped up in a fever

[Clare]

OOC: Hi every one! This is my first rp post here, I'm incredibly excited! Sorry if it's not the best. I'd like the alpha to reply to this but everyone is welcome. Also I made this then Co-Admin wanted to rp with my wolf so this is mainly for me and her but don't be timid to join. I don't bite...but Clare might!

IC:
A large green figure laid by her pack's short term traveling home. They had been traveling to the Jungle when the bear attacked. Clare laid there acting completely out of character, she'd given up on life. Every breath, slight movement, and rustle of air blowing gently on her hurt. Her wounds had begun a small unnoticeable infection and she looked totally different than usual. Laying there helplessly and allowing herself to die. As thoughts of her family raced through her mind she eventually decided she had to find her pups, they needed her. Standing on wobbly legs she moved closer to the pond and drank. She realized just how parched she was and greedily drank wetting her dry throat and mouth. She felt new energy, not much though. Forcing herself to stop, in fear of being sick in the stomach, she turned away and limped to a fallen tree. She scratched at it making splinters fly as the decaying wood gave away. Soon she found her prize, a large plump grub. She ate it then dug for some more till she felt the need to leave the wretched place, in the end she found five grubs and some ants. It wasn't much, nor satisfying, but she felt much better and it took some of edge of her hunger off. She walked all day heading east toward Amethyst Lake. When nightfall came she huddled under a slab of rock guttering off a large bolder.

At the first ray of sunlight she rose each and every day and found grubs, mice, and other small snacks to eat till on her seventh days she got lucky. The smell of warm thick milk mixed with bunny sent gave her strength. Eagerly she pushed on at a brisk pace towards the sent, loping forward. Food, food, food! Her mind screamed but grabbing her wits the yagi slowed. Jackalopes where dangerous and with any luck momma would be around. Getting on her belly she stalked through the grass slowly till she reached it.

She stared at the plump female jackalope facing away from her. It was leaving it's vonerble young to get food and this was her chance but she wasn't to sure. Temptation made her want to kill the mum but she held it back and waited till the she left before invading her den. It wasn't a whole but a unprotected dent in the ground with babies...stupid young mom. She thought before starting to eat from the shallow spot. The warm bodies tasted good and the soft bones where nice on her face wounds. The taste of fatty milk in them felt all so awarding but she stopped eating and left two babies alive. She didn't want to take them all away from the poor mom and hoped this would teach the antlered bunny a lesson. That day had been good for Clare but the rest where harsh and by the twelfth day of her lonely journey fever took her over. Infection spread threw her and she could barley move.


The morning had a crisp tang in the air as Clare staggered alone freezing even if it was a hot day. In her mind she was lost and looking for her pack but in reality she had made them leave her. A beautiful howl rang in the air rushing across tge dense wolf, it was to inform the pack of prey. With the fever it turned and twisted and churned int her mind and came out as a call from her family mourning over their lost...her. She broke out into a run, ripping open the long jagged wound spilling out puss and clumpy blood. In her hallucination it seemed she didn't notice. She howled back repeating, I'm here! I'm here! I'm alive! I'm here, I'm alive! The beautiful melody rang out in her surroundings and she passed the sent marks. She began to bark loudly, "I'm here! I'm not dead! Wait! I'm here! I'm alive!" She sped out of the woods near the lake and thought she saw her mate and pups staggering behind the pack up ahead but it was only thin air, "Dominic wait!" She yelled catching up. The wolves turned and rushed to her. Greeting one another though in real life she was talking to air and nuzzling it. Soon the fever got the better of her and her eyes rolled back. She collapsed entering a deep dark lonely sleep. Clare was strong and most wolves would already be dead by now on their own and without a healer. Her ribs moved as she breathed lightly. She went from being freezing suddenly to blazing hot but didn't stir.

ooc: Tis Som, I also play the Alpha of this land, so I thought if you'd rather I reply with her then I would.

[atrb=background,http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd415/Somatra1/kback-13.jpg] Speaking | Think | Walk Keinvarii awoke that day to see her pups had already left their own den nearby and ventured out to find food themselves. The Alphess had taught them all to hunt, it was but her oddball Aeslin that still wasn't so keen on it, her daughter seemed more interested in watching the clouds float by then hunting down food. Acelan, her mate, was also absent, where he had gotten himself off to the Queen hadn't the slightest of ideas, though she hoped he'd be coming home soon. The Accord was now a rather small pack, though this certainly created an increased level of harmony among their ranks, with such an arrangement the wolves had formed a family. The others watched over her pups when Keinvarii went about performing her Alphess responsibilities and her pups seemed rather happy to tag along after whoever would pay them attention. Oh, but most of them were rather independent beings either way, except Aeslin who seemed far too eager to prattle off some story or another to whomever cared to listen to it. The thought of her family brought a warm smile to Keinvarii's face and a spring to her step, never could she have imagined herself becoming a mother before taking leadership of her pack. She had, with Acelan's help, created the litter to provide the pack with heirs, but the whole business like arrangement had taken on a much more personal quality in a remarkable short period of time. These happy thoughts continued to flounder about in the female's head as she moved through the forest, thick downy pelt ruffling proudly in the breeze. Moss green blended into soft whites and charcoal blacks, masking her body relatively well among the dense foliage as she traveled, looking for prey. Soon the scent of a deer crossed her path and her vividly blue eyes narrowed with interest, nose to the forest floor as she began to stalk the animal. Thickly padded paws moved with little sound, softly rounded ears pointed at the ready and before too long the elegant shape of a young buck appeared through the trees. Poised and ready for the chase, Keinvarii decided to give a call out summoning her pups to participate in the hunt and took off after the creature, herding it but waiting for her young to arrive. However, and much to the Queen's surprise, as she neared the borders an unusual and panicked cry came to reply her own, the sound stranger and the sender unfamiliar to the Alphess. A worried frown upon her face, the stocky lupus stopped her chase abruptly and moved in the direction of the howls, eyes scanning the territory before her until they fell upon a most unsettling sight. Before her lay a pitiful looking female, wounds oozing with what smelt like a severe infection and it was apparent that she needed immediate help. Moving into her role of leader, the Queen briskly approached and called out loudly, letting the other wolf know she was no longer alone. Her voice, deep and confident for a female, rang out with concern, "Hello! Can you hear me dear? My name is Keinvarii, I am here to help you if you'll let me, can you move? We need to get you somewhere more comfortable so that our Healer may tend your wounds..." The Queen paused then, hoping that the yagi was not too far gone and could still be saved. Although this wolf was not a member of her pack, Keinvarii would not leave her there to die so near to the Queen's lands, she was a fierce individual; however, she was not heartless. | K e i n v a r i i 's .

OOC: Doesn't matter to me. Also Sss.

Clare spoken in her sleep muttering, "Wait, wait, wait, I'm coming, wait. " Her legs begun to twitch as if she was sprinting after something -or someone-. Her ears twitched at a voice. Turning from following her family slowly she started walking away in her dreams. The voice of the alpha talking drawled her closer and closer to couscous even though she could not understand it. Soon a light slowly seeped through her eye lids. She blinked then groaned in pain, she looked forward to see a stranger and snarled protectively.

Growling she barked, "Stay back!" Then with a grunt warning others of danger she said, "don't touch them." Thinking her pups where near. Pulling herself up with her front legs she yelped and snapped back into reality. She stood on wobbly legs with a panicked gleam in her eyes. "How did I get here?" She mumbled to herself looking around then fixing her eyes on the she-wolf. Her muscles bulged out some as she grew tense, her small ears shot up.

Her hackles arose in alarm and she showed her teeth, revealing small saber-tooth fangs sticking out slightly farther than her other teeth. It wasn't a threat but a warning to stay back. "Who are you?" She said in a funny voice for she had a scratchy tone do to the shortening of communication for awhile.

[atrb=background,http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd415/Somatra1/kback-13.jpg] Speaking | Think | Walk For a moment Keinvarii thought that perhaps the wolf bleeding on the ground was quite pass help, until she heard her uttering incoherent mutterings and her feet twitched. Well at least she had the strength to do that, the Queen believed that was a good sign all was not lost yet. The snarl following the yagi's travel back into present day was to be expected, and that as well was a promising show that the female would have enough spirit in her to work towards healing. It was on the tip of Keinvarii's lip to snarl a reply back given she had young within the pack and a loner snarling at her was symbolic of a threat in her immediate belief. However, she refrained and let the female in poor shape growl out a needless warning. Finally the yagi stood, albeit the attempt was shaky, but it meant that Keinvarii would not require other wolves to help move the female to a safer recovery location. After letting the other wolf say her peace, Keinvarii spoke up, an impassive and calm look upon her face. "You may calm down now and reserve your strength for healing stranger, no harm will come to you here," she paused and let that information sink in before continuing on a controlled tone of voice, "I am Keinvarii, Queen of the Centena Accord, the pack that occupies the territory over yonder boarders." The Alphess glanced behind her shoulder to indicate the lake lands as belonging to the pack. "You appear to be gravely injured, if you have the desire to have an experienced wolf to attend to your wounds and alleviate your burden, I should galdly offer you the services of our Savant Healer Swalleena, she is a friendly whisp with wonderful healing abilities." Keinvarii cocked her head in an inquisitive fashion, the yagi would need to have the infection taken care of before it spread and became fatal, and she was in no condition to continue her travels. At the moment and in such a condition, she was at risk of being preyed upon by other animals and even other wolves. | K e i n v a r i i 's . S o n g |

OOC- Please forgive me for my unannounced absents, I have no ecuse.

Clare calmed hearing the same call, a warning to pups that a possible threat was near. She knew the female would be to busy guarding her pups to harm hers. She felt quite pleased with this And naturally let out another sound to the pups stating it was OK. She had done all this moments before snapping back into the now And asking questions with fierceness laced into the words.

She pricked her ears curiously And crocked her head listening to the other wolf, her voice calm and emotionless. Clare didn't know the strange Fae but at her state she knew it was best to do what asked of And take any help offered to her. With a long, And slightly exaggerated with, she spoke "Yes please, so this is The lake place? My pack said we'd cross a place like this. Their probably at our designation by now though." She said though a but to herself in her scratchy voice. Taking a wobbly step towards the land she tested her strength then grumbled at herself. The pain rippled up throughout her wounded body that came with each movement. She wanted to moan in pain but she completely refused to look more weak And helpless then she already did at the current moment.
