And in case I don't see you, Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good Night!
Blade was beginning to feel a lot better. Last night, for the first time since his accident, he hadn't had a nightmare about Xaka dying in a river. So, when he awoke, he felt very fresh and in a phenomenally good mood. He decided to go for a walk up the mountain.
He was prancing around like a loon does when they've had a good night, jumping occasionally, not yet feeling like he wanted to go for a run, when there was a dark voice rumbling from a little way above him.
"Why are you so happy?" Duke growled, narrowing his eyes, waiting. Any moment now, that happy smirk would be wiped from Blade's face. He'd growl and snarl and start bleating on about his dead brother.
Much to Duke's surprise, Blade just continued grinning.
"I don't really know. Who are you?" he asked cheerily. Duke was silent with shock.

He wondered where Blade had wandered of to. Roan hadn't seen the grey-coated wolf in a while and it was beginning to worry him, it wasn't like Blade to just disappear when he knew there was a pack to help. Caerwyn... Roan didn't know what was wrong with Caerwyn, he didn't know about his random outbursts of anger yet, but he did know he was mates with Midnight now. That meant they had two Alphas, so they were 'catching up on Falling Moon'.
He stopped a few rabbit lengths away from Duke and Blade, eyes filled with worry as he stared at Duke. Him. The one that killed Xaka. Worry was soon replaced with anger, but he kept it all in and looked at the other wolf with him, and his ears swivelled forward to see Blade. He grinned, but that grin disappeared.
Why was he with Duke? And why was he grinning? Roan knew Blade was a cheery wolf, but he knew Blade knew when it wasn't the time to smile. He made his way slowly towards the two. He was afraid of Duke, yes, but he didn't want to leave Blade after finding him.
"Blade." he greeted with a nod and a small smile once he reached the wolf's side, and he looked at Duke unsurely.

Duke may have been a cruel and vicious wolf, but he was all about the plan. His plan was to scare Blade, ruin his footing, and then chase him away. Instill the wrath of his strength into Blade's brain. But Blade hadn't reacted as Duke had been so sure he would, and it had thrown him off. He didn't know how to act.
Blade, on the other hand, was quite happy. Sure this big black and white wolf was pretty angry-looking, but he didn't look so bad, really. Blade turned as a new, random wolf said his name. Everyone seemed to know him around here, and he didn't understand it!
"Hullo," he smiled anyway. "Who're you?"
As he had his head turned away, Duke mouthed to Roan.
What the bloody hell is wrong with him? He's acting like he doesn't know me. Or you, for that matter. He didn't particularly want to be having this conversation with a Dancing Star, but he was confused.

Wheya stood in her tracks, her auds swivveling around to catch the sound of a near conversation. She raised her muzzle and sniffed lightly, taking in 3 wolves' scents. A falling moon, a dancing star, and one who smelt of both. She turned on her heels and padded towards them.
The falling moon wolf she knew instantly, although she'd never met him, she knew that he was the alpha from the way he had been described by other wolves he had met.
He looked at the wolf who smelled of both, he seemed quite happy...Perhaps he was a loner? Wheya felt happy because she was a loner, maybe this wolf did, too.
Her eyes slid to the dancing star, whome she felt the most at ease to smile warmly at, knowing that they were the least agressive of the two packs. |

Roan stayed silent, slowly tilting his head to the right dumbly as he stared at Blade. He couldn't be joking, not with Duke right here, so the first thing that came to mind about this was that Blade had forgotten everything. Roan didn't know something, though, how did it happen? Was he just playing around? Roan began to panic, but kept his cool, giving Blade a very small, unsure smile.
When Roan noticed Duke mouth something to him, he gave him a confused look as if to say 'I don't know', but when he noticed someone else coming along, and he looked at Wheya, not giving her a smile in return. She should know this could be an awkward moment already, seeing as there was a Falling Moon and Dancing Star with each other.
Caerwyn's half brother and Falling Moon's Alpha.
Not good.

Blade began to pant, not out of tiredness or lack of breath, but simply out of contentedment. His tongue lolled out of his mouth and darted back in over and over as he looked from wolf to wolf. Now a female had arrived, too! His tail began to wag.
When Roan smiled at him, he scrunched up his maw in a bigger smile. They still haven't told me who they are! he thought impatiently.
"My name's Blade, but apparently you know that." he said to Roan, and so turned his attention to Duke. "It's nice to meet you three. What are your names?"
He frowned a little, wondering if they were shy to talk about themselves. He should make them feel better! More comfortable, right?
"I fell off a cliff and hurt my head." he stated, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "Lots of females turned up and started asking me to go to this pack, and then to the other pack, and I got really confused, so I ran away. My sister was even there! I haven't seen Cocoa for ages so I was really surprised, but I wasn't sure whether to go to her pack or the pack that Marilyn wanted me to go to."
He paused, to make sure he'd gotten his story right. Then he grinned again, nodded as if it were final, and his eyes darted to each wolf, again repeating his question.
"So what're your names?"

Wheya's smile faltered when he didn't smile back, she hadn't even though about the awkwarness this would entail. She glanced at Blade, listening to his story, she opened her mouth to speak, 'Maybe you should go with your sister...?' she asked, only trying to help.
'I'm Wheya.' she said, smiling happily. She looked at Duke, his expression nearly made her giggle. She sighed heavily, looking from one wolf to another.
'So-' she began, 'What did you all have for lunch?' she asked cheerfully, she had a feeling Blade might reply, I don't remember D:! [/size] |

Thor appeared silently out of a bush. Bloody hell... He thought to himself. He padded up, keeping his distance from Duke. He smiled to the others. He recognized Roan, but he'd never seen Wheya. "Ello Roan!" He said cheerily. He then looked at Blade. He was dancing and prancing around so much, it's a wonder he wasn't mistaken for a grey deer! He quickly picked up on the plan. Duke was going to poison Blade's mind with nonsense.
"Blade, what the hell are you doing here? Have you gone wrong in the head? You had better get outta here before Duke over there loses his temper you loon!".
