[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=3a3338] _____________________ With every step the large, blonde wolf took the snow fell harder, the winds became colder, and the sky grew darker. Trees were bending in shapes they should never bend. The trees that were in front of her were barely visible, let alone any other trees or objects in the forest. Her pace slowed to almost a crawl. The winds were blowing the coldest air she had ever felt right back at her face. She turned her head slightly to the side to block some of the wind from her eyes. It didn't really work though. She could feel the snow freezing at the ends of her fur. She tried to shake the ice away, but to no avail. She hoped she could find Tuvio soon so they could get out of this weather. It was terrible. Her mind started to wander just as her body was doing. She began to think of everything that happened earlier. She remembered how hurt and angry she had been. Even when she didn't know the whole story about why Tuvio left. Maybe he had heard someone cry out for help and Aurora was too wrapped up in her own world that she didn't hear anything. Did she have to be so angry with him? It didn't make sense. She loved him with more than all of her heart. How could she not try to fight for him, especially if she believed she was losing him? This thought helped make her even more determined to find her mate. There was a reason the two were together. There had to be. It wasn’t probable that it was for her leadership skills. Tuvio could have easily picked someone more experienced and superior to her. The most important thing to them about each other was how much love they shared. Love was the one thing that held them together through all this time. Thick and thin. It was no wonder they didn’t fight often. They were always so happy and content with life the way it was. No extreme issues ever came between them, why should this little breakdown of Aurora get the best of their relationship? And yet he left her in the clearing. That was still hard for Aurora to process. With all of the blood in the clearing shouldn’t he have been concerned for her safety. What if she had been injured. She wasn’t, but could Tuvio really have figured that out by how far he was standing from her. Had he been embarrassed by her? What if he had approached her and then another pack member came upon them. When the two Alphas would have had to explain themselves, what would the answer have been. Could that be a possible reason Tuvio left when Aurora needed him? So many other thoughts ran through her head and she was uncertain as to what she felt anymore. Did Tuvio truly care for her anymore, or was she just an extra limb he was humiliated by? Her mind was brought back to reality when she felt a sharp pain on her right front paw. She let out a little yelp of pain and stopped walking to check for damage. Lifting her almost freezing paw, she noticed no blood or cut. She was lucky this time. The snow on the ground was icing over, which made it potentially more dangerous to walk. There was a howl of the wind, or at least that’s what Aurora thought it was. Could it have been Tuvio again? She caught a strange feeling of butterflies in her stomach. The blizzard seriously was not letting up and wouldn’t for a while. There was hardly a way for her to find her mate, let alone anyone else. The blizzard just got worse and worse with each step Aurora took. What if there were other Rulin wolves out there in the storm, suffering? Letting out another loud howl, she started to panic. A thought hit her then. What if Tuvio was injured? What if that’s why he wasn’t answering her calls? In this dangerous storm with these ghastly conditions it wouldn’t surprise Aurora if someone did get hurt. But it couldn’t be Tuvio, or any of her pack members. She wouldn’t let that happen. Picking up her pace as fast as the snow and wind would let her, she trod carefully and continued to let out howls every now and again, hoping that soon there would be a reply. _____________________ words: seven forty-five. notes: these two are killing me! po' babies!

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=171717] _____________________ The weather was completely against him now. In answer to his howl, he got buffetted by the snowy onslaught. A fierce hatred for the pristine whiteness that surrounded him boiled through his veins. Ironically the rise in blood preasure due to his anger was proablably aiding to keep him warm at the moment. It was crucial for the pack to be able to reach one another, and he just couldn't beat the storm. If he could hurt it, if it was something tangible it would be in tatters by now, shreaded under his strength. It had not been his imagination. It was no trick of the wind, he was certain that Aurora had called out, howling into the storm. It clawed at him, driving him to worry less of his own footing and more so on getting to her as fast as possible. To him, she had looked vulnerable, and her like that in this weather made him nervous. No worse then that, it made him irrational. Tuvio would get to her no matter the cost, and he was not watching where he was placing his feet. A bold, yet dangerous move while plowing through the crystal powder that he was practically swimming in. Its not like he had a death wish. On the contrary is wanted to life a full and complete life, or die defending his pack or beliefs. Yet there he was risking his life, because he had skrewed up royally. How long had he been trecking for now, an hour, two hours? He could hardly tell as all that mattered was every second he battled his surroundings. Every step was a fight for a proper foothold, as his feet met a slick surface under the powdered snow. Hid claws fought for purchase sliding back with every step. Gritting his teeth against the strain of trying to stay rooted to the ground, he tried to grip the ice under toe. Looking up ahead of him, he felt his heart sink. There rose an incline, that carved away to a steep gorge on either side. It was one of the markers that was often crossed before reaching the castle. It was not unusual for the pack to use it, but during times like this other routes were obviously favored. He would have to chance it, as he could scarcely make out the seperate path, and didn not want to risk back tracking. He knew for sure where he was in this storm if he went this way, and when it came down to it, he would rather take his chances with a familiar albeit dangerous course, then an unknown path that could force him to wind up back tracking to this clifface again. Yep, today someone high up was taking a pleasurable time in making him realize how insignifficant he really was when it came down to situtations like this. After steadying his resolve, he began his climb. The crunching of the snow under his weight, was deafened by the storm as he made his climb. Every once in a while he would slide back several feet, and have to retake those steps due to his paws slipping, or snow giving out beneath him. This was one of those times where his face portrayed a fearless brave soul, yet his mind was screaming at him for his idiocy, and sending him perilous visions of him meeting his utter end while falling over the cliff. His heart was racing, and Tuvio was scared for his life. _____________________ 656: words. Comments:muhaha literal cliff hanger

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=3a3338] _____________________ Time was freezing in the storm with each passing wind. Aurora was unsure of how long she had been wandering in the forest now. Was it minutes or hours? She did not know. The cold gripped her body and soul like never before. Her aimless steps into the unknown were slowing as her body temperature began to drop. Even though she was a werewolf, she was not completely immune to the cold or illness. Her paws were starting to go numb and shivers were running down her spine every now and then. Her beautiful blue-green eyes felt the sting of the harsh, icy winds. The panic she felt for Tuvio's safety had yet to subside. Memories came flooding back as Aurora stopped moving completely. Trying to curl against herself to gain some warmth back and avoid the winds she crouched down and wrapped her tail against the side of her body. Closing her eyes, laughter filled her mind. It was her own laughter and the laughter of her friends and family, of her pack mates, and of Tuvio. It was their wedding day. A beautiful spring day. Not being the traditional couple, they didn't see the need to have a very traditional wedding. Of course there were flowers, dancing, and a small ceremony, but nothing over the top and fancy. The majority of the wedding was held outdoors in the sunshine. Aurora was stunning in her short, golden wedding dress. And Tuvio was handsome as ever in just a dress shirt and pants. The two of them were glowing, which was normal whenever they were together. It was just who they were. They were cutting the cake. It was just a regular yellow cake with Aurora’s favorite buttercream frosting. Tuvio had a smudge of frosting across his cheek. Just a moment ago Aurora surprised him by taking the frosting off of her cake with a few fingers and smearing it across his face. All the while Aurora had a smile on her face and was giggling. Now it was Tuvio’s turn. Laughing he tried to push the small piece of cake he was holding into Aurora's mouth. She turned away and he only caught the corner of her mouth, smearing it across her face even more than she did to him. Neither of them seemed to mind as their laughter blended together with the laughter of the pack. Her eyes opened for a brief moment. The blizzard was still working in evil ways. Missing Tuvio even more now that she had a flashback of how happy they were, she tried to think of another way to find him. It was impossible for her to just pointlessly search when there was a minimal chance of finding him that way. Then she had an idea. If Tuvio was close enough he would be able to hear her thoughts. Maybe then he would hear her and know for sure that it wasn’t just the wind. With new determination, even though her body was slowly shutting down because of exhaustion, she set off again to find him. This time calling out in her mind, begging for him to hear her and answer. Tuvio! Can you hear me? Please! The alpha knew she didn’t have much time before her health was seriously at risk, the same as Tuvio. She couldn’t panic, but she was worried. Typical Aurora was fretting once more about her mate. That seemed to be one thing she could never stop doing, even if she was still deeply hurt and upset by him. As she started to slowly advance through the snow another memory flashed through her. The forest was lush and green, filled with warmth and sounds of life. Aurora and Tuvio ran together with another pack member, Leon behind them. They were on a hunt for the pack. Their source of prey? Moose. The three of them figured out a plan and as Tuvio let out his final howl the three wolves charged after the herd. Even though Aurora’s mind should have been on her own kill, she found herself easily distracted by worry. Every few moments she would look over to see how Leon and Tuvio were holding up. It was Tuvio that worried her the most. If something were to ever happen to him, she would never know what to do. Because she was so distracted by the concern for Tuvio she was actually injured in that incident. It was hard. There were times when the two of them would barely see each other. With their duties as alphas it was easy to get wrapped up in that commotion. It wasn’t a top priority to make time for themselves or for each other. They had other obligations to fill and that was what mattered most. Another sharp gust of wind hit Aurora in the face, almost knocking her backwards. She kept trekking forward though. Calling out to Tuvio again, praying for some kind of sign that he was okay. The two alphas needed to find shelter before this blizzard reaped any more havoc on them. They were running out of time. _____________________ words: eight fifty-three. notes: i got all weird and kinda creative with this post. sorry. this is what i imagined her wedding dress to look like. i could never picture these two with this huge "beginning of our lives" wedding. they aren't the type to need to show their love with materialistic things. and i could never ever see aurora in a big poofy "princess" gown.
