the world cracked, spun sideways and left her there. dead, dead, they're all dead, just there. skulls cracked. squealing, burning, stench of crumpled flesh. muzzle whipping to the side she growled, bared fangs, hackles rose, stared, stared so malevolently, her eyes seemed to be put to fire. gone gone, all of them, dropped like sacks, delicious. oooh how delightful.
she knew affection once. before death swept through her mind, set his claws deep in her spine and made her into his own making. oh yes. yes indeed. things would not remain as they were. they changed, altered, warped. she grinned, her footsteps a soft reverberation upon the ground. what's this? she dipped her head, sniffed. sniffed so deep she imagined blood. oh, how lovely. wolf blood. wolf flesh. wolf heart, wolf eyes. ears perked high, haunted by those eyes, those damnable eyes that watched her, traced her movements, had her pining. to taste, how lovely.
"come little ones, come out and have your fill," she crooned softly, ears flatten against her skull, a semblance of kindness altering her face, softened the hard angles of muzzle and sloped brow. then vanished, as with the wind. oh. oh. tail angled high over her backside, she moved, moved with the swiftness of deer, of wolf, of life, of death swooping down to steal. a thief. yes, yes, the thought amused her, greatly. "little ones, keep up now." she purred, a rough sound in her throat droning out with a little bit of anxiety. to think they'd be left behind. never. always with her, always watching with crooked gazes, squashed skulls, pierced by strength, by evil. she didn't giggle, but a sound emerged, strange and absolutely ...
ears flicked up, heard sound, thoughts stilling, silence. let there be silence. she paused, looked around at the stillness, at the heat that crawled up her flesh like fire ants. held her in that utter inertia, a picture frame, a wanderer stuck in a web of absolute wonder. faded, died. slashed away with the ferocity of death, of blood spurting from ruptured veins, arteries shriveled up. bugs, bugs, so many bugs. swallow them too. eat, be strong. feed little ones. it's alright. I'll protect you. eat. so easy to muster the courage to eat the flesh. rotted out and sagged upon the ground. diseased. become the disease. yes. yes.
she shivered, the fire of her fur rising up, up curling up like smoke, smothered, lost in the surreal atmosphere of smoke piped into curling circles. breathe it in. this land, not hers, no no not hers. she grinned, a malicious baring of teeth, bleached white and sharp as muscles quivered, watching waiting.
"where are you, little ones?" she purred, stalked into the land, her head lowered, angled up as she stared around at the world, her fevered amber eyes, bright. "where did you go? come back, sweet things, i will protect you. come out...come out....get out here!" she snarled, her voice turning harsh, rasping against her throat, face twisting into wrinkled hatred, ears splayed out along her skull.
she tilted her head back, and howled, the sound a surprisingly strong sound, rising, rising like the smoke of her sights, smothering her, buoying the sound up up and across. stranger. stranger in a strange land. strange strange. oh yes, very strange. hot flames licking at my feet. burn with them, burn burn burn.

It had been quite some time, yes, quite some time indeed since a newcomer had howled at her borders. She was pleased with the way her pack had grown recently, of course, but not satisfied. Satisfaction curbed ambition, and ambition was her fuel. just as plants needed sunlight and fish needed water, Anouba thrived on having a goal. And right now, her immediate task was to discover who dared to call her to the borders - a prospective member, perhaps? Most were, since wolves of other packs knew by now to keep their distance. Anouba yearned for war, and would pounce on the slightest trespass as a valid excuse to start one.
Not that she needed an excuse, of course, but she liked to occasionally claim the moral high ground, if only just to see the indignant faces of those who believed themselves preservers of peace. There was no such thing, in Anouba's mind: the only way to preserve peace was to eradicate evil, was it not? And that was a task that surely demanded bloodshed. No, peace may not be her goal but it would be achieved nonetheless through her actions...even if she was the only one left standing to appreciate it.
Her dark form moved swiftly now over the dry earth, knowing the land intimately as she did, and soon her amber gaze rested on the stranger. Acceptance to these lands was by no means guaranteed, and Anouba began her critical judgment from the second she laid eyes on a newcomer. This one looked...uneasy. It was reasonable to expect a certain amount of tension; Anouba wasn't known for her kind and understanding approach. But though she carried herself with considerable confidence, and the muscles beneath her rough pelt were well honed for battle, she didn't exactly strike most wolves as a figure deserving of abject terror at first sight. After all, Anouba single greatest weapon wasn't her strength, or even her impressive turn of speed when required, but rather her agile mind. This wolf, though, looked to have her thoughts trained on other things...either that or her purpose here was a suspicious one, and she had reason to be unnaturally tense. Time would tell.
"I trust you are aware of whose land who tread on, stranger? If so, speak your business and quickly."
Anouba's lyrics were far from friendly, but they were not so sharp as to contain any more threat than she carried in her calculating stare as she slowly circled the strange wolf, noting her tension and her slightly unfocused gaze. This one, she began to surmise, was not all there. But she could perhaps work with that, if certain things were functioning correctly. She would have to see - no final decisions were to be made until the female had spoken for herself.

sound died; life died, returned to its grave in the earth and rotted. her throat burned, burned burned with blood; she coughed, voice hoarse, resurrected from the mild death and came to life. confusion ensued. an answer! her little one, her little one? little paws, little eyes, ears, heart, eyes. not squashed: devoured, broken like a rag doll. drooling blood spreading upon the ground, how lovely, pretty, bright, the color of her pelt. fire, there is a fire under her skin, breaking free and spreading. hot hot hot!
head tilted suddenly at the sight of a wolf, dark, so dark her scent itched. itched, dread and laughter. ohh how sweet, a scent of succulent flesh beneath rippling fur. she took a few steps forward, forward, paws whispering along the ground, closer, oooh to be so close to that scent, of life, of blood rushing beneath the surface, so close, so close to that abandonment, freedom. pulse race, ears flick up, track the heartbeat, so calm, so steady, so boring. her tongue uncurled, slid along the furry curve of her lip and against the black leather of her nose. she wanted, oh how she wanted. she nearly purred at the sound of the other's voice.
so serious, so stern, she cooed, kept her fever bright gaze on the female, did not giggle, almost hid the shadow, the monster, the little demon that lurked in her gaze. a ripple, so slight, as broken mind shadowed the danger of fangs, of want, of desire. skewed so oddly, she craved. craved flesh, wolf, blood, but more. she craved life. passion burned through her, poured out through the growing beat of her heart.
"land, land, did my little ones tread upon land? upon air, ohh how delightful," she purred, gazing over the horizon, gaze averted, eyes sparked with the light, burnt amber turned to flames that flickered about pupil. "how delightful to trespass, don't you think? perfectly, delicious." she swallowed, throat closing around the phantom thoughts that thrilled her, sent a shiver through her muscles, turning her coat to diluted fire, a rippling silken wave of redness. of blood, pooled in the earth, no home, no place, oh yes, land, land there is, and land there shall be. not my land, but someone's. her nose rose, pointed in the other female's direction with sudden acuity, eyes narrowed, ears flat against skull, voice dropping a few tones, "your land? or will you too be obliterated? will i see your heart throbbing so sweetly, your fur shed upon this land. oh yes this land. fire hot, hot like you. we will burn, burn together no doubt." she blinked, a sudden stiffness coming to her as her ears flicked back against her skull. "same fire."
burn, indeed, as mind cracked further, opened up as the light returned to her eyes, the sharpness within fading, fading to a rounded want, feral, barely contained. ooooh, to see them bleed. her little ones were hungry.

One ear flicked silently, the closest Anouba's careful features came to showing her own irritation. Oh, there was madness there, no doubt, and perhaps the strange wolf hadn't meant to offend, hadn't realised her words were...inflammatory. Yes, Anouba kept her temper under control, but that didn't mean she didn't have one. The creature's ramblings, predictions of her own death, didn't sit too well - power was largely held as an illusion, a threat, with crude force a final resort. There had to be something behind the threat, of course, but once you'd used it, then what? What remained, when you'd played your final card, your last Ace? No, it was the illusion Anouba needed to maintain, the defiant certainty that her leadership was as immovable as the mountain she claimed as her land. To allow contemplation of her own mortality was to invite it. These confrontations at her border were so often conducted only through the subtle play of words and the ever-betraying language of the body, but words relied on a mind sharp enough to take their meaning to heart, and Anouba doubted this wolf possessed that one redeeming feature. Her mind, she guessed, spiralled and twisted, precarious and unpredictable. Better to make her meaning clear than her language clever, in this case, though it was unusual to resort to such crude methods.
"No,"
she hissed, her voice heavy and imposing: there would be no misconception here.
"I do not burn."
For the first time in several moons, she opened her mind to the power that lurked there, a presence she felt with every breath. Fire, by it's very nature, consumed, and she used her gift sparingly, so sparingly. Ironic, perhaps, that the more power one possessed the more careful they must be not to use it. But she did now, letting the heat and the rage fill her, facing the stranger's insanity with a dreadful madness that, albeit controlled, would not remain so indefinitely. Everything had it's price: despite her words, there would doubtless come a day when she too would burn in her own flame. But not today, nor tomorrow: she had a purpose, and she would not relinquish it to anything, least of all her own instability. Flames danced in her ebony pelt, licking at the ground where dry grass blackened and shrivelled, and a slow grin crept over her muzzle.
"Again, stranger, I suggest you speak your business. I will not ask a third time."
It was intoxicating, and therefore dangerous: she knew better than to hold onto her fiery display for any longer than necessary. All the same, another voice in her mind whispered, just a little longer. Just a few more seconds, to feel flames licking at her skin, so hot and yet not burning her, not yet.
ooc: Sorry you had to wait so long, I'm in Cambodia with fairly limited Internet access!

she wanted - too many things. couldn't control them, felt them all slip from her grasp. one, two, three, burn, burning in forever. jaws snapping at half-thought moments of ease, of wonder, of thought. she grinned, an amused tilt of muzzle as she shivered, red pelt, seeming to shimmer, a river of blood, of fire that tied itself to her fur. oh how she wanted - coherent, precise thoughts. boredom in still features. had she turned to stone? ease forward, one step two steps. little ones beware, mama has a problem and she grinned, licked her lips, watching beyond the wolf, to a thing in her mind.
oh yes, eat, devour. thoughts of demise, her own, others. burning in hell, or perdition, or stomach. burn in her own stomach, she growled, though it was too soft to be such. a sudden unyielding thrum in the back of her throat. she would burn, glorious and immortal. sharpness, quick, uncensored. a wolf - another one. she blinked. where did she come from?
trespass. shook her head. trespass together? no no ... sin inked in blood, a puddle, a river of tears that soaked the ground. flowers - none to steep their peddles. a whiff - femme. concise - a sudden rift pushed at her, had her whine, back up, ears tilted. "who does not burn? we all burn." she whimpered, ears flat against her skull. madness instilled in her eyes, pupils losing focus. head turned away, saw little ones, crushed eyes, skulls, hearts beating in open chests. "oh my little ones, there you are," she purred, a rough burr in the back of her throat, held and stilled her.
heat! too much heat, growing. don't hurt the little ones. innocence. she shivered, the taste of young flesh eased the tightening in her stomach. memories, quick stifling, gone. fur fallen, open flesh. she purred this time, a sudden giving in to pleasure. grin of death - she looked, glared, subsided at the beast in flames. "you do burn." she said, voice bereft of accusation. she watched, watched the flames licking at flesh, at fur, muscles which did not char and crumple beneath its onslaught. "Goddess." and the sharp white muzzle closed, teeth clicked together.
business - focus, focus. she wants focus. goddess deserves worship. one nod, two ears flat against her skull. then grin, vicious and uncaring as predator rises in her eyes, burnt amber turned to vivid flames in her skull, reflective of the fire on the black wolf. "you are ash, ashes to ashes, you burn and do not die." riddles, so many riddles hidden in meaningless words. she did not outright say worship. no no, never that. she grinned again, almost a match to the black beauty shrouded in flames. oh yes, little ones will be pleased with this one. haunted, uncaring.
she shivered, even so close to the flames, her own fur brought to life, a vivid display of brightness and shadow. "keep me here." she said, voice growing gruff around the edges. let me kill here, let me die here, let me burn here, she thought, unspoken. more than blood, more than mayhem. death, flames and Goddess. yes, yes. she twitched - head snapping to the side.

NYMBRASS Whats this?? A Tiff?? Intriguing
Demonic strutters plodded into the terra he dallied across. Optics searched, scanning every inch of the buzzing landscape for another of his species. Nasals inhaled, burning scents inflaming delicate nostrils in a so-called pleasant barrage. Aromas, the musky, stale scent of another, nay two, wolves penetrated him, infesting him with delicious pleasure.Exhaling heavily the scents that tainted him, melonomatic tank was propelled forward with silent dread, pumping quicker as he drew closer to the tantalizing impurity of the very air he breathed. The tall blackened trunks of young pines loomed above, jutting from the turf with delicate dread, as if the spears of a massive army bulging from the carcasses of the dead, crimson juices wetting the ground in swift attribution to some silent sin committed with dire consequences.
Scoff was released to the air, a plague in itself as he slunk forward. The wraith maintained his quick pace, energy slowly expelling itself with every step. Slowly, the reserved dwindled, pulling from a ever small pool of liquid speed. Fool, he was, to go so long without refueling. stilts were forced forward, pace slowing as he ambled toward the pair, delicate harks deciphering the codes of speech that readily stretched between the two.
Torrents of wind buffeted the drakes smooth form. The raven locks of his coat danced to an intricate ballad sung in the breeze, twisting and turning with reckless abandoned. The earth turned silent as the breeze dissipated, stillness reverberating from every aspect of the nature surrounding him.
Sharp ambers racked across the dead land, catching the minuscule movements of the land as it was stirred by another small breeze, too unimportant to Stir the drakes coat. The day was unusually cold, pushing the charts to a few degrees below zero and, though Nymbrass was cold, excessively so, he refused to stir, to allow a shiver to shake his bodice. Slippers paced across frozen terrain, the delicate state of his pads making his teeth clench. But he never wavered in his pilgrimage, never allowed his pace to slow even though sensitive paddies objected to the frozen ground.
Nasals twitched as the scents of life passed through them, and a delicate snarl was now released. Life. a burning hatred of all that was good, and kind...and living filled him. Impulsed were to kill, to remove once more something from the earth that needed not breath. But, the demon refrained the urge, restrained the burning need for blood, and continued on his path toward only the God, the very one that had abandoned him, knew.
The frigid cold penetrated him, chilling him to the bone, and for once, he allowed a shiver. He needed shelter, someplace to hunker down until the coldest of the night had passed, and he needed to find that someplace soon, or face his own death, and he had no intention of lying down to allow death to take him. As he traversed the land, the small withered carcasses of other lee-rah that could not withstand the cold riddled the frozen ground, and an intense small of satisfaction covered grim jowls.
Ahh, he could almost hear their cries as they lay dying in the cold, their whimpers as their pathetic coats were useless against the cold. He continued on, the occasional breeze ruffling his fur but to no avail as the ever hungry breeze could not find gain into his live force. But, the time for that had passed.
Attention focused once more on the others, the voices of two femmes coming toward him, wafting thought the dead cold air to his ever perked auds. Oh, how entertaining.
Weapons extended, wreathing his delicate walkers in a frond of swift death, fangs extended as jowls widened in a feral grin devoid of mirth. Searchers scoured the thickness of the grove as fluorescents ceased to penetrate the thick grove. Strange turf was before, unexplored in his arrival, satellites keen to the never ceasing conversation of the wood. Movements stilled, carcass settled down to wait silently for his time, the temporal loop that he would make his-self known in.
