((*sigh* whavs))

Blade laughed at Gruff. "Stop it Gruff, you're going to get us in trouble" she said.

Gruff wagged his tail. "It's just a porcupine, what's the worst that could happen?" Gruff replied playfully, making air swirl around the porcupine, lifting it into the air. It struggled and growed, it's spikes dangerously flailing as it tried to escape the wind. "Cramp!" Gruff moaned, and the porcupine fell, right on his rump. He yelped in pain as the disgruntled porcupine scurried off before being terrorized by the insane wolf again.

Blade chcukled. "Smooth move knuckle-head, let me help you get those spines out" she said, plucking a few spines away from the base of his tail.

Gruff shrugged and pulled the ones he could reach. "Thanks Blade." he said with a smile, air blowing her fur and ears up and away from him as she plucked the last spine.

Blade fell backwards and laughed. "It was no problem, but don't mess with the porcupine anymore." she said.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Gruff said. 

Crim had been sure he had heard Daemon's voice, but no sounds of footsteps could be heard. Snorting, Crim padded around the tree he was sitting by, and, after several minutes of pointlessly walking around the tree, he decided to take a drink from the nearby stream.

 ((*sniffle* sorreh.)) 

Shayd stepped silently through the shadowed forest, his evil appearance causing the birds that saw him to send out alarm calls to warn the rest of the forest that he was there, that something dark and unknown was walking within their domain.

With a soft growl, he surrounded himself with a veil of shadows to hide him from the world outside. He took a moment to pause, shaking off his body, which made his chains rattle loudly, the sound echoing through the forest, much tot he male's displeasure. He hadn't meant to try and draw any attention to himself.

"Ah...what's done is done, I suppose," he murmured, lowering his dark veil before he continued walking, his steps light and graceful despite the heavy chains he bore, wrapped all around his body by cruel humans who had wanted to torture him.

Well, he sure had surprised them.

Tigris stalked through the dimly lit forest, ears swiveling around as his large paws lightly thumped against the ground. He paused in his walk as the sound of rattling chains caught his attention, the tiger-sized male looking down at his own chain before deciding against going to investigate.

Instead, he sat down, tilted his head back, and howled. Well, it came out as a roar, but still.

Amor padded through the trees quite peacefully, her paws moving in a set rhythm as she hummed to herself, bright red eyes glittering with the warmth and kindness she had in her heart.

((Blegh.

Couldn't think of anything for Amor. e.o))

Blade jumped when she heard a startling roar. It vaguely sounded like a howl, and it made her nervous. "Gruff, we should go, there could be a big cat in the area." she said.

Gruff laughed, and blew wind in her face again. "We can take any lion that comes near us... If they would dare." he said.

Blade rolled her eyes, getting tired of the wind stirring up her scent. "Stop that Gruff, I'm serious. We should go."

"If we see a lion, then we'll leave." Gruff promised, sitting down stubbornly.

Blade groaned and washed her paws in the stream. 

((:) Thank you. ))

Blade smiled. "Hi Crim!" Blade barked, tail wagging slightly.

"Hows it going?" Gruff asked.
