This means War! (Tuvio - Ulric)

[Deleted]

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] The alpha male made his way through the old abandoned carnival. Nothing worked here anymore, it was an ancient relic built long before the time of the wolves. Back before the world changed into what it now was today. He breathed in deeply taking in all the scents around him. He was alone, he had agreed to meet the Rulin alpha one on one, and if Ulric was anything he was a man of his word. The wind blew gently ruffling his hair slightly. He looked up to the sun shining down and hardly a cloud in sight. He grinned at the thought of meeting the other alpha. What were they supposed to be accomplishing here anyway? No matter how things went Ulric already knew what the result would be, there would be answers for the encroachment on Veronti territory. This would not go unpunished and if the other thought that he could weasel out of it by talking him down he was sorely mistaken. As he walked around he saw massive hulking beams of metal and buildings that were in ruin. Things that he had no idea what they did or how they did it. It was as if he were walking in an alien world that was beyond him. He thought of how his pack mates had cautioned him against going alone. What did they think would happen? Certainly Ulric could take anyone that the Rulin alpha brought with him if he did betray their agreement. He was nearly to the agreed upon meeting place now and he could hardly contain his excitement. His blood boiled with the suggestion of things to come. If things went as he hoped they would there could actually be a war. He felt a shutter move through his body and he shook his head to clear his mind. It was not yet time to unleash the wolf. He needed to remain focused on the task at hand for now. The time to strike would come soon enough and then there will be no stopping the might of Veronti from taking Rulin down a peg or two. He thought of the encroachment onto Veronti territory. One of the Rulin pack had been caught red handed so to speak roaming his territory by a Veronti patrol. There was no denying what had happened and the other packs surely must have heard about it. Veronti would not look weak in front of any of them. He would show them all what happened to those who dared to trifle with the fierce pack. They had been around long before Rulin and they will be around long after Rulin's demise, if Ulric had anything to say about it. Finally he had reached the agreed upon meeting place. A gaint wheel with carriages situated around the outside, something he was told was once called a ferris wheel. It was the largest landmark in the Carnival Lot and it offered a clear sight of approach from all sides. Ulric walked to the base of the great wheel and scanned his surroundings, still there was no sign of the other. He breathed deeply again, looking for the faint scent of his foe in the distance but still he came up with nothing. Perhaps the other had been to nervous to meet with him after all. Ulric couldn't blame him if he was, after all the Veronti alpha was not one to be messed with, not if one wanted to come out of the altercation alive. Ulric lifted his head to the sky and let out a wolf like howl from his human form. "DON"T KEEP ME WAITING!!" He roared into the sky. Surely if Tuvio was anywhere nearby he would have heard the anger and hatred in the sound of the Veronti alpha's statement. _____________________ Word Count: 638

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=171717] _____________________ It was unforgettable experience, having to look another alpha face to face, measure your strength against one another. His current obstacle, more like an annoying tick in his opinion was Ulric. Veronti were at it again, infringing on other pack land, and trying to bully there way into his territory. Before he had been the defensive. Tuvio had played it safe, and handed over territory a long time ago , nearly a century ago. Then the pack was not as strong and efficient as it was now. Then he had only been a newer alpha not even fully taking over for his father at that point. Now he was strong enough to fight for his pack, and he would be damned before he gave up on anything now. Veronti had been getting more aggressive lately, but he was really actting over a past action. Tuvio wanted there land back now. In truth he wasn't going to actually stage an attack for another ten years. In reality he had to admit, it was a little personal for him. He felt like he had failed his pack back then, when he was still new to leading. Veronti had caused him to act early. They had trespassed on Rulin land. A fresh kill stinking of Veronti was found, and not by a pack member, but by Tuvio. Now he had agreed to meet the alpha of Veronti and discuss this whole ordeal. As far as he was concerned, there wasn't much to say, but Tuvio by nature was a more subtle and noble leader, so he figured he should at least hear out Ulric. Afterall this time it might have been a rogue or someone on Veronti that he is unaware of, taking the initiative to step on Rulin land. The hulking muscular wolf form of Tuvio watched from a sizable distance as Ulric took center stage first. The carnival was where they had decided to meet. It was out of the way a bit, but it was also a place where neither of them really had an advantage. They were far from there packs now, and though he didn't doubt that a cur Veronti would bring more to the meeting then just himself, he had upheld the deal and had come alone, much to the hate of his mate Aurora. He had placed himself by a machine that snaked high into the sky. Thousands of metal beams aligned its frame to help even its now partially dented and barren frame to stay standing. Since Ulric was in human form , he walked out and transformed while doing so, to face him, and get this meeting started. His bones fell out of socket and realigned in place again, ligaments, tendons, ripping and attaching to bone and cartilage to make the shift possible. It didn't hurt him, and he smoothly made the transition. He had decided to show his shift to ulric in order for him to see the diffrence in how he looked now, compared to all those years ago. Then he was scrawny for an alpha, now he had bulked up alot, and was bigger then most of the lycans he had ever met. In human form he wore a simple white button up, that had a more bussiness look to it. The cuffs were unbuttoned, and it hung slightly from his frame, but it didn't hang off of him in an odd way. He also wore jeans that fit in a way to make it easy for him to shift and move in them. Tuvio was no fool, he was prepared to fight, and he was taking no prisoners of war today. It wasn't often that he felt like taking a life, but Ulric was an exception. He spoke with authority, and kept his gaze level and if Ulric were to look his way towards his approach, there eyes would most likely lock. If they did, the intensity and determination behind his stare was one those of weakness would cower beneath. " Eager to confess are we?" _____________________ 753: words.

[atrb=border,0,true][cs=7][bg=000000] Ulric was disgusted by the other alpha’s behavior. He was treating this as a show, a game of sorts. ‘Oh look how much bigger I am now’ was all that his transformation had said to Ulric and it was pathetic. Not that the other didn’t have anything to show off, but one knew better than to stoop to such lowly games. Then he proceeded to attempt to intimidate him with a look that was rather impressive, but ill effective against Ulric. Even still it wasn’t this that had pushed Ulric to the edge and slightly beyond, it was what had passed from Tuvio’s mouth. “HA!” Ulric let out a bark of laughter full of such contempt that it would turn the blood of lesser wolves cold, though he suspected it meant little to the other alpha except to show his disgust. “You think it is I that has come to apologize?” He asked with amused anger in his tone, “For what, your wolf encroaching on my territory? That’s right my patrol found the little pup in our woods. He was dealt with accordingly to his crime…” A look of amusement crept across his face, “Did the poor fellow ever make it back home?” Ulric said with a venomous glaze injected into every word. He wasn’t sure exactly what the patrol had done to the trespasser but he knew that there surely would have been some lasting damage to the wolf. During the few moments it had taken him to bark out his accusations Ulric had maneuvered himself into a defensive position. He wasn’t sure if the words would be a strong enough incentive for Tuvio to attack but he was going to be on the safe side and be on guard all the same. His legs spread just the right amount of distance apart to make a change at any time. His hands loose but ready to let a flurry of attacks go if Tuvio should attempt to fight him in human form. Ulric stuck to a brutal combat training schedule in both wolf and human form. He could take a severe beating in either form, and still dish out enough damage to kill most. Ulric thought back to the time when Veronti and Rulin had met like this before. There had been an exchange of territory and no violence. He hoped strongly that that would not be the case this time. He hoped that Rulin had grown up some and was now ready to fight for the transfer of lands. Ulric had been itching for a fight for years now and he had slowly been preparing his pack though they were unaware. They had been increasing the packs training regimen and he had been increasing patrols. Everyone had been showing improvement and the pack was ready for it. It was time that they began to move up the ranks even higher. It wouldn’t take much to rise up and rival Havren. They needed only subdue Rulin and secure Nyalcom’s aid and then Havren would finally fall. This was all just the opening stage for the final act. When the final act would come was unknown. It all will come down to how things play out in the first act. Ulric lifted his head to the sky. He was debating even before he had finished speaking on whether or not he would hear out Tuvio or whether he would just attack and set into motion one of the largest wars Orien had yet to see. He ran through the scenario in his mind. Him taking the other alpha down a notch here in this metal jungle, then Veronti taking all of Rulin followed by the downfall of Havren, and finally ending with the human worship of all Lycans. It would be the best turn of events, but Tuvio was not a wolf to be taken lightly and anyone who underestimated their opponent was dead before the battle started. He would wait until the other attacked, he would egg him on until he could take no more, or he would wait until Tuvio made a mistake and left himself open. This was no time to be reckless . _____________________ Word Count: 697
