Strange Land [open]

[Red]

Red had no idea why she was doing this but she was and there was no turning back now... Climbing the vines that would take her to the mountain that floated above everything else. It was in broad daylight that she was doing this. Originally she found this place during the night and had been intrigued by the glowing formations on it but she had been too unsure of herself to actually scale the vines at night and so she waited until daylight. 
She didn't want to admit she was scared, but she was. The black wolf kept her body close to the vines as she made her way up and along them, her nails digging into them with every step and her long top canines just barely scraping the vines while she kept her head low and near them. 

It was a bit of a long process for her, but she eventually made it to solid ground and she shook herself off, trying to gain her composure before moving any further. Red looked over her shoulder to gaze back at the thick vines behind her. "What is this place..." She muttered under her breath before looking ahead and seeing nothing particularly odd about this floating piece of land other than the fact that it was floating. 
For as long as she had been traveling she had never seen something like this. Never. This was a first and she must say she was quite intrigued.

Curiosity had a firm grip on her and she started to move forward, each step being cautious but showing no signs of stopping. She wanted to see if anything lived on here.. Probably not the best idea for someone that was traveling alone and had no powers as a means to protect herself with... But she wasn't one to be afraid of confrontation, only afraid to be scaling some vines, apparently. 
The black wolf would make short pauses every so often just so she could listen carefully to her surroundings as well as smell them before she would proceed forward further onto the floating piece of land.

Larky walked by the strange landscape. She had been there a thousand times, but she couldn't look at the enviroment without having a little vertigo. Three and a half years with dirt under claws, and still she couldn't avoid it. But it was worth it, it was beautiful.

She didn't remember how had she found that place, and she had struggled on to find out several days until she came to the conclussion maybe she was born there, even if she wasn't sure about it. Either way, she prefered not to get too confused with that stuff, it was better to live life at her manner, without preocupations.

She sighed as her stomatch growled. Time for a meal. She crouched as her nose catched a scent. But it wasn't a prey scent. It was a wolf scent! She walked to it slowly and alert. "What are your intentions?" She whispered "What are your intentions?" She said now louder and firm.

[Red]

Red froze immediately when she heard something. It sounded like someone spoke and she glanced around, looking for the source. It was then that the voice got louder, asking a question. Red Rot's head stopped moving and her whole body stiffened. Should she be aggressive or should she remain calm? Red wasn't entirely sure but her body seemed to determine that for her as her lips rose slightly, exposing even more of her rather vampire-like top canines that protruded past and evenly on either side of her bottom jaw. She didn't growl but she did make a rather annoyed expression, lowering her ears slightly and narrowing her eyes. 

"It depends." Red Rot said with a low tone, her voice almost monotone, hardly feminine but nowhere near masculine. 
She didn't turn to see who she was speaking to, and in all honesty she didn't care to know who it was. What did matter to her was if she was going to have to get ready for a fight. "What are yours?" The black wolf returned the question, wondering if the individual would respond. 
Her intentions did depend on this individuals own intentions. Dangerous? Friendly? Red Rot wanted to know. If dangerous then Red Rot was ready to fight but if friendly then Red would simply move along and try not to get dragged into a conversation like she had so many times before by other loners she had ran into. 

[Drazonic]

Larky rised her tail and lowered her ears, but she didn't say anything agressive. She remained silent a few minutes "I'm not looking for trouble" she finally whispered as her orange and white fur blowed with the wind. She could feel the stress on the air "Who are you?" she asked roughly.

She soon realized maybe she souldn't have asked that, if it sounded agressive, she would have to forcé herself into a fight and she didn't want that, even If that was on her nature to be proud and short tempered. She had fox herence and that made fighting not her strong point. At least she looked way bigger because of her dense fur.

She clawed the ground and looked at her wairly.

[Red]

The black wolf finally turned her head and her fiery orange eyes settled on a orange and white furred female. She tilted her head ever so slightly, hearing what the female whispered. Red turned her body more, now facing the female almost directly. She wasn't looking for any trouble? Red relaxed, her muscles loosened and weren't as stiff as before but she did remain well enough on guard, even if this was not noticeable.

When the female asked who Red was it made the black wolf turn her ears to face her. They stood high on her head and her eyes narrowed. The roughness of the females voice is what threw Red Rot off. First the female had said she wasn't looking for trouble and now she was asking who she was in with a tone that the black wolf wasn't sure she was okay with. She pulled her black lips back slightly to show annoyance  and lowered her head, leveling her skull with the height of her shoulders and she stared at the female. Her long saber tooth-like canines would be Red's only weapon if this encounter somehow led to a fight. Red had no powers and although quick on her feet and a quick thinker with long sharp saber-like top canines sticking out of her mouth she probably wouldn't fair very well still. 
"Is it mandatory that you know the answer to that question?" The black wolf asked with her usual monotone. "I'm not here looking for trouble either." She added with almost a sigh as she lifted her head and looked off to her right and then her left, quietly examining her surroundings and trying to make sure this female was alone and Red wasn't about to be ambushed. 

"If you own this strange land then I'll be more than happy to leave." Red suddenly said as her eyes landed on the wolf before her. She lifted her head, standing up straight and looking elegant, and not so much menacing. 

[Drazonic]

Larkspur sighed. She had ruined it all, once that she found a wolf she had to be rough. She just had no clue of how to treat other wolves. "I have no rights to call this lands mine, as they are and will keep being lands of no-one" She said calmly " I hope no-one ever claims them..." She said that last thing for herself.

Larky kept looking at the other female wairly, still wondering how had she arrived there and who was her. Maybe she had lived on the lands she used to live before with the pack she left long ago. She wouldn't ask it anyway, she didn't want to annoy the wolf more than she was already. Maybe she had to apologize. But she v would not find the words to express it. She let out a sigh again.

The leaves of the few trees around whirled with the wind, like dancing. She shivered, still annoyed by the vertigo.

[Red]

Red Rot swayed her tail from left to right gently as she listened to the female and then quietly debated on if she should stay and socialize or just move past this wolf and go on her merry way. Upon hearing the female sigh this made Red Rot almost roll her eyes since now she felt she had to ask what was wrong even though she didn't know the wolf. "Why are you sighing..." Red asked, no annoyance in her voice, but more of a hint of forced curiosity. Was this wolf lonely? Or was she sighing for other reasons? Red Rot did not know and she couldn't quite tell if she honestly wanted to know the answer.
She wasn't talkative with strangers, actually she was more dismissive sounding than anything else since she didn't easily trust others. She always did her best to seem as uninteresting and uninterested in order to avoid bringing attention to herself. But every so often Red Rot found herself yearning for the company of another wolf. It was only natural since she was a pack animal. She would strive in a pack environment... Not strive as a loner the way she was now.

"I'm Red Rot." The black wolf suddenly said. Her ears turned back, facing away from the orange and white wolf before her. She didn't know if she made a mistake by introducing herself or not... It was her opening up a door by introducing herself. She was opening up to the possibility of actually socializing, making a friend or making an enemy. She would find out depending on how the female responded. 
"I'm here to explore, nothing more. Didn't expect to run into someone here and I'm not the most sociable. So pardon me if I come off as... Rude." Red muttered as she eased a little, trying not to look like a threat and hoping to try to either make a friend or to be left alone. Making a friend was rare for this black wolf but for as long as she has been alone ahe felt maybe she could at least try to be a tad bit more friendly just to see if she could make an acquaintance. 

[Drazonic]

She looked the female with interest "I'm Larkspur. Nice to meet you. And... Yeah" She said awkwardly I"'m not the most sociable wolf ever in world but" She chuckled and forced herself to grin.

Maybe she was doing a friend. She hoped so since she was quite alone since she left her pack on the meadows. 

"I'm sorry for being rude earlier" She supposed she had to apologize too, since she had been wrong too "I use to be Like that." 

Her stomatch growled again (grawrr!) and she blushed, ashamed.

Nova was confused, and a little hurt. Two others had ventured into her lands without greeting her or her pack. They had no read the signs of another and seemed to hold no respect for her and her creation. So she climbed the vines swiftly and quietly, her paws leaving no prints and making no sound.

Once she reached the other two, she simply caught the tail end of their conversation, and her mild irritation made the moutains shake a little. 'This is my land.. My creation. You are both welcome to it.. But.. I would enjoy to have your names, since I know them not.' she projected her thoughts at them, the galaxy on her hip swirling softly as she stared at them.

It made her nervous to think that irritation had even crossed her mind. It was not what she wished to embody here on this planet, but she was right in making sure that all knew this was her creation and her claim on this world. The least others could do would respect that.

She paused, but did not lose her show of dominance, head and tail held high, ears forward, but overall a calm demeanor. 'Forgive me, it was vey rude of me to be so blunt. I am Nova. I came down from the heavens to this planet in search of a more normal life. One far less lonely than the one I held before. You are both welcome here, but that is only I who might do so. The other members of my pack would probably not take your presence with as much welcoming and peace as I.' she explained softly, still calm and peaceful as the mountains floated slowly around them.

[Red]

Red slightly dipped her head when the she wolf introduced herself as Larkspur. She dipped her head as a way of greeting her and she then carefully listened to her as she spoke.
Red was naturally rude. There was no "used to be" about it for her when it came to rudeness. It was just her way of avoiding making conversation and some could say she was probably a bit shy and definitely awkward so being standoffish was like a defense mechanism for her. On the inside though, she was sweet and the opposite of what her exterior was like. It just took a lot of patience and hard work for someone to get to see that part of her.

The black wolf turned her ears forward when she heard the growling of Larkspurs stomach. "Someone isn't happy." Red commented, speaking about Larkspurs talkative stomach. "Better feed it something before it eats you instead." Red remarked, almost playful but not quite considering her tone and facial expression remained rather stoic. 
Everything seemed fine as well until Red felt like her thoughts got invaded. She could hear someone within them... No one familiar and definitely not something she was used to and she quickly whipped around with her lips curled back when she realized they were obviously not alone and she settled her fiery colored eyes on this new individual. 

Red did not growl, but her canines did remain bared as she went into a defensive posture. She backed up slightly towards Larkspur, almost trying to seek her presence as a source of comfort while she faced this new individual that was obviously not happy with them being there. 
She was thrown off when the wolf changed their approach though, becoming calm and giving an explanation. Red didn't quite care for the sudden calm state this wolf went into. All she knew was that she had gotten startled and it was enough to set Red Rot off. The highly temperamental black wolf lifted her head, canines still bared and she eyed the new individual, almost challenging her, but not quite. After a moment of thinking she slowly lowered her black lips and calmed down, being able to tell this wolf would not be something she should mess with... Not unless she wanted to die. 
"Red Rot... I am Red Rot." The black wolf finally said, giving in to an introduction, although she wasn't comfortable with it. 

[Drazonic]

Larkspur froze, but her shock didn't last more than a minute. She was angry but she understood that she had no chances against that wolf. She wanted to growl, but she looked at Nova with her tail and head held up high "My name is Lakspur" She said trying to sound indifferent.

She looked at Nova's pelt: it had the colors of the galaxy... Or the galaxy itself? She couldn't tell if she was fur and flesh or Light and air. That kind of freaked her out and confused her.

She knew a ghost, Apparition, but this creature was way too different. What was it? From the Heaven? Owner of this Lands? She couldn't stop wondering the same questions again and again.

After wondering all that she realized that she didn't want to get in trouble with that wolf so she slowly lowered her tail, growling inside, but she did.

[Nebula]

Nova was saddened by their hostile responses, and just tilted her head slightly out of curiosity and confusion. Where did she go wrong? Assuredly so, it had been when she had shown but a little bit of irritation, and the way this wolf, born of the universe, showed it.. It seemed to jave frightened and struck them with anger of some sort. She could only assume, so she decided to speak in normal tongue.

"I know I have caused anxiety to come upon you, and for that I am deeply sorry." she stated aloud, her voice one of many voices speaking together, and she paused oncemore, searching through them for a voice that she could use as her own. "Trust me, I offer no ill will, therefore you should not worry." She finally spoke in one voice, soft yet strong, feminine and male all at once, interchangeable.

"Is there any way that I might help you? If you are hungry, there is much game here and you are welcome to it. If you are thristy, there are many pools and streams of water. If you desire rest, you will be safe here.. But I suppose.. It would be best I return to my pack and leave you be." Her dominant stance remained, but she turned and began to make her way back down the mountains to the earth below, pausing here and there to touch a paw or nose to a place and cause new, strange plant life to grow there. Nova had decided it best to let the wolves take their time to leave and do as they wished.

Being a alpha was proving more and more complex than she had expected it to be. She had created and destroyed worlds, but she had done so alone. Coming into contact with others and learning how to 'communicate' with them was proving harder and harder everyday. She was either loved or feared, and she had only wished for love. Now, at least, she knew how to cause fear and to not do so again.
