A Quiet Break

[Starlight]

Avalon walked slowly in the meadow, being quiet and calm. He turned his head in the direction of Shannodoa, wondering if he was able to take a small break from everything and let Kiara settle. Avalon's head faced foward one again and he continued walking, and the cross on his neck shined in the sunlight.

[reinlief]

Reinlief stalked avalon through the tall grass, he was cautious at having seen more wolves, he had had bad experiances with other wolves before, he just waited to see what avalon was doing

[Starlight]

Avalon stopped in his tracks "Some one is near...I can sence them..." said the Sparrow in Avalon's mind. The large brute then bolted around and sniffed the air, immediatley smelling a brute near by. "Who is there, friend or enemy??" he said strongly, as his body stiffened ready if the brute would attack him.

[reinlief]

Reinlief was faced with a dilemma, does he trust the stranger and hope that he is friendly or does he run knowing that he is too weak to fight. He made his decision.

"Friend!"

he shouted from the grass still not revealing himself, his voice was raspy from lack of food

[Starlight]

Avalon dropped his guard and walked over to the wolf slowly, and when he came close enough he saw he had lack of food. Avalon sat down "are you okay sir?" he said to him kindly, but he still was a bit unsure about this wolf.

[reinlief]

This eased reinlief slightly, but he did not lower his gaur, he groaned

"I'm fine, just a little hungry, thats all"

[Starlight]

Avalon looked around and looked away from the wolf, and he closed his eyes and re-opened them. His iris's changed colors to a red and he looked far off, and shook his head and his eyes turned back to teal. "Will you be okay if you stay here for a minute or so, I think I see a deer far off" he said to him.

[reinlief]

reinlief dropped his pouncing pose slightly, he was still suspicious, but he was too hungry to decline

"I'll be fine"

he said as he layed down

[Starlight]

Avalon got up and darted off, a little bit faster then what a normal wolf can run. " My turn now Avalon..." said a voice in his head. Avalon shook his head "No, I got it...I don't want you out anymore, you are gonna kill again." but Avalon had no choice. While he was a good distance away from the weak wolf his eyes turned red and red flame-like markings grew on his body.

The Sparrow stopped short and went into the grass, and looked around quietly. He hid his massive body as much as he could and saw a deer near by. Without even making a thought out of it he ran at the deer and jumped on its side and snapped the deer's neck. The deer fell on the ground as the Sparrow dragged the deer toward the weak wolf, and he let Avalon regain his original form.

Avalon put the deer next to the weak wolf, feeling extremely tired from the curse he had on him activating. "here you are" he said kind of tiredly, but not making it noticeable.

[reinlief]

Reilief didnt notice the change, he was too happy to see some food, he began ripping the meat from the carcas, he took a few bites and rested to speak to avalon

"such a kind gesture, may I know your name"

[Starlight]

"My name is Avalon, and yours?" he said to the wolf, happy he didn't notice anything and ask questions.

[reinlief]

the wolf stood, and smiled

"nice to meet you avalon, I am reinlief"

reinlief was reliefed, he had very quickly finished his meal and was full of energy, he begin walking

"you coming?"

[Starlight]

Avalon nooded and walked up near him, his necklace a little bit bloody from the hunt. Avalon licked it a bit off and walked again. "are you new around here Reinlief? I am too..." he said, hating to admit it. "but I am more of a loner, so I am around different places alot. But I am staying in Shannodoa now for a while..."

[reinlief]

"yes I'm new, I'm also a loner, I tend to wander around, I feel uncomfortable with staying in the same place"

Reinlief now fully trusted avalon

[Starlight]

Avalon's paws crunched on the grass and left big circles in it. Avalon trusted Reinlief, but wanted to know more about him, but if he asked questions he would ask him questions to...then there will be another wolf afraid of him, which he did not want. " Did you come a long way to get here? I have came from far off." he said to him.

[reinlief]

"I dont know how far I'v come, I'v been travelling as long as I can remember", he said looking away from avalon, he thought that he shouldnt reveal his past yet so he tried changing the subject

"where have you come from, you seem pretty big so it must be a kinda rough place"

[Starlight]

Avalon looked at Reinlief and wondered how to answer his question. "I don't remeber my childhood, or me growing up. But I am sure where I onced lived is in ruins now." He got quiet for a minute, as he still tried to learn things that a adult wolf would know. He snapped out of his thoughts. "But I know where I came from is a place where I can never go back to."

[reinlief]

Reinlief thought for a while

"well it seems like we are more similar than I expected"

He paused and decided it would be best for him not to continue with the subject, he stayed silent as walked, there were many questions that he wished to act but he decided against as they had only just met

[Starlight]

Avalon continued to walk along side of Reinleif, wondering more about this wolf's past. He didn't bother to ask him questions, but he heart still ached by the fact he said "well it seems like we are more similar than I expected". Who is similiar to a beast like me... he thought to himself. He then thought of Shiba, something he has been doing for quite some time now, but he still doesn't understand why. She probably thinks I am a beast as well...he thought to himself once more as he shook the image of her out of his head.

Rion walked into the meadow wondering where he is.
