Ossie blushed lightly. "Thank you." he said quietly. His paws felt like they were still shaking.
John stood his ground. "Why not? They are here to only help." John's voice was still soft. The albino wolf was keeping his cool. Mel narrowed her eyes at John. "Oka had no right to come back here." She rasped loudly. John turned to the she-wolf, his pink eyes narrowed. "Well you didn't either when you vanished for that whole moon." He said coldly.

Fawn was still waiting for the pack wolf to say something. She looked up into his eyes and blinked a small greeting.

(Currently, "Stone" Oka, Nieve and Ossie are there to try and establish themselves as independents on the four remaining pack lands. Rabbit Run was the 5th, but was wiped out by disease, and both Ossie (the healer of that pack,) and Mel (the previous beta, I believe) were part of it. SEGWAY TO the leaders, John, "Flame" Mel, "Rock" Medusa, and "Wartorn" Shadow. (Despite being a renowned warrior, Oka left Shadow's pack and was chased after. Nieve saved him from a blizzard, and by wolf laws, his life is now hers [like a bodyguard]. Medusa and Ossie have fallen for one another, and John is a friend of Oka's. (The most current plotpoint is this- the leaders are voting on whether or not A. Ossie and Oka should be let allowed back onto pack lands and B. whether Ossie should retain his pack's vote, as he's the last survivor to do it [besides Mel, who has her own vote as a pack leader].)
Oka leaned forward and groomed his friend's forehead. "Calm yourself, Ossie. It's out of your control now, you shouldn't be stressing."
Medusa stepped in between them all. "Oka fled, for reasons only he and you know. I'm afraid the issue isn't whether they're allowed back, that's not our decision if both John and I, and even Mel, I understand." She glanced at her. Oka had made a visit, and procured her vote on their allowance here already. "The big question is, since he's an independent, and the direct decedent medicine wolf of Rabbit Run, should he be back here with us, making decisions? Should he have a voice at these rocks? "After all, as a medicine wolf unencumbered by a pack, he could more easily be in contact with Skypack." She pressed home the point.
Shadow reluctantly nodded. The many jobs a medicine wolf had hindered his connection with the afterlife, which was their original duty. To have a wolf that could reliably speak with the wolves beyond would be invaluable. "If he agreed to retake his oath, to retain his connection with our ancestors..." He trailed off. Siding with these two was always difficult, even on something so simple.

Ossie nodded, but it still felt like a huge boulder was on his shoulders. His blue gaze flicked around the huge group of wolves. They were chatting. some glancing towards them. Most of these wolves were not familiar to Ossie, it had been ages since he had been here. The familiarity comforted him.
Mel's green eyes were narrowed as she listened to Medusa. She had hoped the story she had told Oka would have torn their little group a part. Mel said nothing. John gave a small nod. "Then we must ask Ossie to retake his oath." A thought then suddenly stuck John. "Then if Ossie retakes the Oath and then if Oka becomes the leader or some other wolf, does that mean they are another pack?" John glanced over to Medusa then Shadow then over to Mel. "They could take over Rabbit Run's old territory." John added.

Oka glanced over and sighed. "Don't mind them. There's always gossip at a meeting, we just happen to be the newest, greatest gossip ever."
Shadow hissed, stamping his foot. "It'd take a miracle to make me agree to something like that!! To let a cat, a traitor, and a runaway have a whole territory. Hah!"
A miracle, huh? Medusa smiled. "A miracle like, per say, Skypack telling him so?" He would retake his oath, and that would mean conversing with Skypack once more. If they prayed here for the answer to come through him, it was foolproof- they would tell him yes or no, and his oath would forbid him from lying about such a thing. Satisfied by Shadow's silence, she glanced to Mel.

Mel narrowed her eyes. She hated when Medusa was right. Her gaze flicked to Shadow then over to Medusa. But before she spoke John spoke. "If that ever does happen it will make making decisions much easier." John tried to lighten the mood. Mel glared him down. "But what if that rag tag group of cat lovers does not make a pack? Where are they going to live?" Mel rasped. "They are not living on my territory, i may have said they could hunt on my territory. But if i catch them living on it ...." Mel's voice went quiet. She wanted those three gone, even if it met reveling her secret. Her eyes seemed to brighten as she waited for a answer.
Ossie wondered what was taking so long.

Medusa stepped forward. "We allow them to make him around here. The closer to here, the easier to keep an eye on them. I know you, Mel, and you, John, both wish to claim part of Rabbit run's territory. Let you both claim it, and allow them free hunting rights on all your territory. Fair?" She glanced around, and saw Shadow staring her down. He slowly nodded. This was not a fight to be won.

Mel was quiet. But after a second she sighed. "Yes." She rasped. John gave a soft nod. "Seems fair to me." He said happily. The white wolf then got to his paws. "Lets not keep them waiting." He said softly. Ossie's nerves had calm and he waited quietly. Atsuzz had came by and waited with them. He seemed to not like being around this many wolves. Atsuzz's deep red eyes flicked around. Almost nervously.

Medusa stood head of the group, glancing down upon her arrival at the top. Her gaze set affectionately upon Ossie for a moment. "Wolves! Let me have your ears and your eyes. We've decided." She waited for chatter to die. "Upon our closure, we've decided things beyond the returned healer. First, Rabbit Run's territory will be split- some to John's pack, some to Shadow's. That is the decision. Now, for our most important topic. "Ossie is to live in the cave overlooking this place. This will allow easy surveillance, and close proximity to the stones behind these rocks, of which a link to Skypack is his primary goal. He will retake his oath within the half-moon," she glanced around to the leaders, then continued, "and regain his connection with our ancestors. As our healers rarely have time for such journeys here, to meet with Skypack, he will be our primary oracle."

Mel and John listened to Medusa. Mel with a hint of a frown on her face and John looking down to the small group of three plus Atsuzz. Ossie listened carefully his black tipped ears flicked up to Medusa and the rest of the leaders above. Ossie liked this plan. He and his friends would be protected and he would see his ancestors again. Ossie gave a small nod. Agreeing. Nieve had no real idea what a oracle was but Ossie seemed happy. She gave him a small smile.
( Oracle Ossie XD )

Shadow glanced at Atsuzz and glared intimidatingly, for no real reason.
"That is all. Assemble with your packs and prepare to leave."
Oka purred roughly. "Congrats!" He said, and walked forward, brushing against the healer. "What's next for you?" He gave an obvious glance to Medusa, as if he knew what was within Ossie's mind.

Atsuzz felt Shadows glare but he let the intimidating wolf do his thing. Atsuzz had been across many lands and he was not easily scared or intimidated. John gave a small nod and headed down the rocks. Mel sat there for a little bit before heading down. She was deep in thought.
Ossie was quiet for a little bit. To take his oath again he would have to talk with his ancestors at half moon. Usually his mentor would do the oath but he passed long ago. "We now wait until Half moon." Ossie got to his paws and stretched. It was going to be a long wait.

"Ossie." Medusa called him after she arrived at the bottom of the rocks. She shook out her fur as she waited for him.
Not a moment later Shadow's pack left the acene, barking goodbyes to the others.

Ossie padded over his tail high in a greeting. "How was that meeting? You guys were talking for a long time." Ossie sat down in front of Medusa.
John barked a goodbye and left with his pack. Mel gave a quick glare to Medusa before racing away with her pack.
Atsuzz wanted to stay a little bit long, he had a day long hike back to his barn.

Medusa flickered tail to her second in command, and the pack began away. "Ossie, the meeting was tense, to be brief. Never have I been that worried. So... while it seemed you always had a good chance, you better stay the straight and narrow for a while. Soon Mel and Shadow will accept you." She glanced down at her paws, a soft blush appearing on her face. "But that being said, before you say your vows at to Skypack, would you visit my den?"

Ossie listened intently, he knew Shadow and Mel didn't like him and the others. The last question made him blush very slightly. He glanced over to Oka and Nieve they seemed busy with chatting with Atsuzz. "I would love too!" He said happily. His bright blue eyes brightening up.
Nieve yawned quietly. Atsuzz got to his paws and stretched. "Well i should be off Oka, i have a long walk ahead of me."

Medusa growled playfully and came close, eyes flickering with mischief. "Ill await you in my nest, Ossie. Don't be late." With a quick lick off his nose she scampered off, like an excited puppy.
Oka dipped his head. "Safe travels, Atsuzz."

Ossie watched her with loving eyes, his gaze flicked to Oka, Nieve, and Atsuzz who had given Oka a small nod and was now padding away. Ossie quickly padded up to his friends. "Umm, i have some things i have to do." He paused and glanced over his shoulder before finishing. "You guys can head i will be back at sunrise." Nieve yawned, she had never been up this late before. "Oh ok Ossie." She said sleepily.

Oka gave the look of a parent watching their kid go to do something they know they should stop, but decided to let him go. "Be back before first light." He said simply.

Ossie nodded and bounded off towards the stones where the leaders met. Their sent still strong on the light gray stones. Ossie bounded past the stones. He knew of a short cut to Medusa's camp. He was swift and quiet as he bounded, this was the first time in a long time he was alone. Soon Ossie came to Medusa's camp. It was quiet. Everyone was asleep. Ossie sniffed the air. Before sneaking into the camp and towards the Leaders den.
Nieve got to her paws. "Lets go." She purred quietly. "Im about to fall asleep on my paws." She joked quietly.

Upon his entering, he would find Medusa in a.. revealing position (Paint me like one of your french girls pose, ish), a small rose between her jaws. "Ossie, my love~"
"Likewise." Oka chuckled and lifted her, making the way back up the hill to the cave.

Ossie froze. His face becoming BRIGHT red and hot like a fire. "wow." Was all he could say.
(Oooo, should we skip this .3.) (OH and for some reason i drew Click (My demon cat friend) With lasers shooting out of his eyes.)

"Come. Let me make you a true wolf before your ceremony with Skypack." She rolled onto her back and called him over with growls and purrs.
(Yup. Skip.)

Ossie awoke to the unfamiliar but yet familiar sounds of camp life. He opened his eyes. His snout was just a couple inches away from Medusa's snout. He yawned and lifted his head. Medusa looked like she was still asleep. He smiled and untangled her paws from hers and got to his paws. He stretched.

She moaned softly, eyes fluttering as his warmth left her. "Love?" She whispered.

Ossie looked over to Medusa his eyes glittering. He padded up to her and nuzzled her. "I have to go." He said softly.

"I know." Medusa sighed, leaning into his touch. "Ossie, if we have pups, you'll return, won't you?"

Post by Fuzzymask on Nov 10, 2017 15:29:41 GMT -5
Ossie nodded. "I will, i promise." He nuzzled Medusa once more before pulling away. "I love you." He said softly before exiting her den.
(They would have such cute pups!)

(Oml yes please draw these two <3)
"I love you too, dear Ossie." And with that, he had left. She sighed and turned away from the den's entrance. The early morning was a controlled chaos of wolves back and forth in the camp, all surprised he was in the leader's den overnight. But most said nothing.
