Sad Cry

[capricious]

Ky walked to the burnlands and walked back to the trees. He kept pacing, thinking about if there would be a fight against every pack. Capricious was stupid to let anyone join, but it should not be solved by war. He knew that would solve NOTHING, just kill off more of the wolves. And that is something they do not need. " Why do these shamefull wolves want to start a war?" Kyro said out loud. He let out a loud howl of question and sadness.Kyro finally stoped pacing and sat down, looking over the burned land scape. He knew that he was special with being able to see ghosts and that could give a pack great help, but he didnt know what one to join. He knew that if he joined Capricious pack, he would also be hated, but he also knew she would need help if a war did break out. But he couldnt bring himself into making a dessision right now. So he thought that he would just be a messanger until he could make a choice. He liked being on his own, fear of if he joined a pack, they would get hurt. But he couldn't let his past affect the dessision. 'Well I will not desside now.' He thought.

Ash swirled around Rhys’s paws as she walked, and she paused for a moment to wonder at it. These lands had burned long, long ago, and yet they seemed as if they had burned only months before. The trunks of the trees were blackened and dead. Most wolves found the place desolate, depressing, even eerie. Rhys found solitude here. The lands weren’t dead to her, simply sleeping, and few wandered here. It was a place that promised her she’d be alone when she came here, and the alphess visited the area when she needed to clear her head.


Movement caught her eye, and she stopped, observing a male in the distance. He was pacing, and she contemplated whether approaching the wolf would be a wise decision. She didn’t recognize him, and part of her wondered if he’d come here for the same reason as she had – to find peace.


She let a single bark echo across the monochromatic landscape. It was a simple greeting, notifying the wolf of her presence in order not to startle him, and not requiring a response. If he wished to speak with her, it was up to him to initiate the encounter. The alphess was small, but she had an imposing presence nonetheless, and a dignified air about her.

[capricious]

Ky got up and started to walk again. Then he heard a simple bark, he knew the bark was a fae's. He lifted his head and looked at her. He hadnt seen any wolves in a while. So he made a quick dessison to talk to her. He walked to her, and stoped about five feet away, far enough for him to flea a fight if one broke out. Suddenly Kyro recognized the alphaess. " Hello Rhysalin. My name is Kyro. You may call me Ky." He said, he didnt know how to talk to a Alphess, but he would try. He looked at her, and then at the sky. Ky was so tired, he had no energy. But he could not insult the alphess of one of the hating packs. Kyro looked behinde the fae, and saw a group of spirits talking. In unisin all four ghosts looked up and looked at Ky. ' I wonder what these ghosts are doing here.' Ky thought. He knew it was not uncomeonto see ghots here, because of the fire almost the animals that died here stayed here. But Ky had been at this place for a long time, and he had never seen these wolves before.

Rhys flicked an ear, watching as the male approached. She was mildly surprised when he recognized her, and wondered for an instant if he was a wolf she'd met previously and forgotten about, something she tried not to do. Then he introduced himself. So, they hadn't met before, but he knew her by sight. She wasn't used to being recognized, but perhaps it was just something she'd have to get used to.

She nodded as he finished speaking. "Good day to you then, Kyro. What brings you to these wastelands, if I might ask?" Her tone was cordial and conversational, rather than demanding, but she still expected an answer. After all, she was genuinely curious why he came here... it was an unusual place to visit, unless one was purposefully trying to be alone.

Rhys noticed the male's gaze was over her shoulder and turned, thinking he might be looking at something. She saw nothing, and returned her sharp golden gaze to him. It struck her as strange, and she wondered if he were perhaps mentally ill, but his actions and words weren't that far out of the ordinary. He was a little akward, perhaps. Maybe a little unusual. It didn't really matter to her, so long as he didn't behave in a disrespectful or aggressive manner. She realized she was on neutral lands, and thus demanded no act of submission when she encountered wolves, but she generally recieved and expected a certain amount of respect as a pack leader anywhere she went on the Island. So far he'd displayed enough consideration that she wasn't irritated, and she was content enough to speak with him for a while.

Kyro heard what the alphaess said, but he couldnt keep his attention on her long. " Oh I come here to see the spirits of this land. Hear what they have to say. And help if they need it. One second, there are some over there that I have never seen before." Kyro said before he walked to the four strange ghosts.
He had to drop everything when it came to ghosts. Even if he didnt want to. Ky walked over the ash land to the four ghosts. " Hello, my name is Kyro, and I can help you if you need it." He said, looking at the bigger spirit. The Big spirit was white with blue markings, and red eyes. " We do need your help as a matter of fact. We are trying to find the cave in the cliffs. We have been there a thousand times, and can not seem to find it." The white and blue wolf said.
" Well I am not sure where that might be. Capricious the alphaess might know. The cliffs and caves are over there. But there are a few caves, and im not sure what one you might be talking about," Ky stated," I will do my best to help you, meet me by the river over there in a few days, it will take a while before I can get there. Pluse I would actually like to talk to another live animal." Kyro finished. Every time he talked to or saw a live wolf, here comes a ghost. It was so annoying.

Rhys watched with interest as Kyro walked past her, stopping a short distance away and introducing himself again, this time to thin air. He seemed to be holding a lucid conversation, except for the fact that he wasn’t speaking to anyone she could see. Whether he actually could speak to ghosts, or was simply crazy, she didn’t know, but his strange actions amused her enough that she decided to overlook the fact she’d just been blown off for creatures that were either dead or nonexistent and observe for a while.


He didn’t look particularly unkempt, which was evidence toward ghosts, rather than insanity. Rhys had encountered her fair share of wolves with strange powers, but she’d also encountered her share of ones who were simply crazy. Either way, Kyro didn’t seem dangerous, and so she remained where she was, watching him and chuckling softly to herself.


After a moment she stood, shaking her coat in order to rid it of dusty ash, and walked closer to where he was, stopping a short distance off in order to better hear the apparent monologue taking place. To her, the swirling mist before Kyro looked like the mist all over this area, and she wondered idly if he might have been able to see her she she sleepwalked across the lands, leaving her body behind.

[capricious]

Kyro looked back over his shoulder, and saw that Rhy had taken a few steps closer to him and the ghosts. He knew she probably didnt belive him, and thought she was insaine. But he could not help who he was. He loved his powers, and would not know what to do with out them. He turned his attention back at the spirits, but they were already walking away. " Remember I will meet you there in a few days, but stay put if Im not there." Kyro said. He turned his attention back to the fae. " I am sorry, there were four ghosts that needed my help. I told them I would help. But I dont have to leave here for a day for two." Kyro said looking into the alphaess eyes. His tail was down, in respect, but his ears were not back. Kyro looked up at the sky, it was sun set, the pretties time of day Ky thought. Then he turned his attention back to Rhy. " Im sorry if you think I am insaine, but this is my power, and I do not know what I would do without it. You are free to think what you will." Kyro said.

The Ciell'eau alphess chuckled again, sitting back on her haunches and giving Kyro an appraising look. His tone was defensive, even proud, and another pack leader might have grown angry. Rhys did not, easily realizing he was defending his gift and his sanity, not trying to challenge her authority.

She shook her head silently before speaking again, traces of a smirk hovering at the edges of her maw.

"Crazy? Oh, perhaps I think you so, and perhaps not. I've encountered quite a few wolves with strange gifts, and quite a few more with strange minds. It really makes no difference to me which you are, loner, as long as you intend no harm toward me and mine."

Her tone became more serious and she looked at him again, her golden eyes probing.

"You don't, do you...?"

Of course, he hadn't acted aggressive up to this point. Not even close. But it was spies she was concerned about, and this was her little way of testing him, of watching his reaction to her question.

She rocked back on her haunches slightly, scratching her paw along the ground to draw long, thin lines in the ashen dirt. Her gaze remained fixed on him, without agression or affection - it simply held a certain probing intensity, the same intensity that permeated all of Rhys's personality. After a moment she stopped scratching idly and curled her cinnamon and frost tail around her toes, eyes still fixed on Kyro in expectation of an answer.
