Warrior Cats: The Four Clans

Lorak shifted for a moment, intent on staying where he was and being her unvoiced guardian angel but he knew it couldnt be like that. He sighed softly and stepped out of the shadows of the tree. The moonlight glowed on his ginger pelt for a moment, turning it to silver fire before it diminished and returned to a soft glow. Lorak's ghostly green eyes were soft with good intent. He stepped forward until he was sitting a modest distance from her side. He wasnt trying to be rude about the small distance between them but he didnt want to seem like he was trying to take advantage of her. He merely nodded at her request to talk to him and stayed silent. His face was raised to the moon and his eyes peeked at her for a moment before returning to the moon as well. "You can trust me with anything. Im your loyal friend, ive been fighting along side you since the moment i figured out that my fangs could be used to kill your foes. Tell me what pains your heart Aiano."

Lorak's eyes softened only to twinkle in the light of the moon, "Aiano, we all make tough decisions. This is not your fight and its a fight you shouldnt have to fight. This is my fathers fault as we all know... I cant exactly say why he did all this but i do know..." the he wolf hesitated. Something hissed and snarled within him, silencing his persecution of his father. He couldnt tell her what he felt everytime his claws and fangs itched. He refused to tell her about the delicious dreams he had where her blood covered the ground and put a horrid yet wonderful tang in his mouth.
His heart beat harshly for a moment as he gathered his thought, "I do know that you have been doing all that you can and thats more than i can say for Starpack. We survived and will survive. Please dont worry my leader, my life is for yours. I will take the claws out of your back and the fangs from your neck. My flesh is yours and will protect you. Your burdens are mine to bear as well. I will always be here, watching from the shadows with all the courage and loyalty i can muster." He stepped foward a moment, his lips partly open with words he wished to tell her. Tempting words that would draw her closer but a tingle in his skull made him rethink it. Was this feeling and these words genuine, or was this a feeling of desire and ambition? His desire for her blood and his ambition to rule his father's kingdom. If she came and closer would he attack her? At the present moment he was sure which motives drove him, so he decided to be nothing more to her and her guardian angel.

Lorak watched the she wolf disappear. He let the sound of wind playing in the twisted branches of the lifeless forest around him make his thoughts drift away. "It must be easy," he whispered to himself, "To brush my words off like that." He sighed and turned away. The tip of his tail barely touched the ground as he headed back. He would go on the patrol with her and act if nothing happened, just as usual. He would guard her, as usual, and come home to a barely satisfying meal, as usual. This was his lot in life and so far, since he kenw nothing else but this life, it suited him. Yet all the while thoughts of shades and the teasing of the wind totured the creature that lay dormant inside of him. It raged and snarled to be let loose. It wanted blood but there was no way to convey the desire other than faint whispers in Lorak's head. The beast was surpessed, for now.

As Cloudandis and her hunters brought down the deer, they took it to the camp with her leading them. They would eat well tonight, considering how large the male deer was. When they brought it into camp, theyknew it would be satisfying. As usual, Alpha had gone missing on another full moon. "Rin, you and the hunters guard the kill untell all the pack is here. None of us has eaten this well in ages, and I'd like everyone to get a bite of this large kill. No one eats untell all of the pack is assembled, understand?"she told Rin, her vioce empty and toneless. "I'm going to find Alpha and Lorack, so do as I recomend. It's only fair to every one to start when we're all here." She padded off, following Lorack and Aiano's scent. They would be pleased with the kill that Rin, her, and the other two hunters had brought down.
