Mischevious Tendancies

[Daunt]

I have a tendancy to piss people off, by gettin' in their face and sayin', "piss off"

Sleep was one of the many acts that relieved stress from the little pup. A soft rise and fall of his stomach was all the reference one needed to actually presume he was asleep, and not just faking it to go run off and play like he some times did. What he really wanted was to trouble others; make his mother and father worry about him. Yes. He was quite the mischief maker. Tail curled around him as he snoozed quietly, reassuring scents of his family lingered about. He felt as if sleep had lasted for a few seconds, if not that. One eye lid unstuck from each other, and his blurry world was in a haze, splotched with dull purple and blue rays of the outside world. He grumbled and closed his eyes, feeling restless and the sleepy edge was still consuming his small body.

Have to wake up some time, he thought unhappily to himself. Raising slightly, he uncurled from Trawn's grip and inched up, slumping his back as he grumbled. He was tired, but he wanted to play. Raising regretfully, he shook him self a few more times, blinked, and wiped away the dull, hazy and blurry vision. It was now renewed with a clear world, rays of dull light sprawling into the den. He cackled his cackle, and then trotted out of the pup den, wandering out in the den. All wolves would be asleep this early in the day, so he freely trotted off into the forest.

"All good things must come to an end, speaking of sleep," he said, cheerfully. "Lose some, gain some!" He cried playfully, then trotted into the forest to go get into some trouble.

[Saei]

The Zaevrian Alpha rolled over, his ear flicking towards the den entrance. He hadn't been sleeping in the pup den with Trawn, instead taking a place by the entrance. He lifted his head, a large yawn coming from his jaws as he stretched his legs forward. Blinking the sleep from his eyes, Saei stood, giving his pelt a good shake. Something jsut did not seem right. Snorting slightly, he turned and trotted halfway into the pup den. One. Two. Where was number three?

A low growl came from Saei as he turned, trotting outside of the den to try to track down his son. The boy just didn't know when to stay still! Daunt was jsut lucky he was to be heir and not Peek or Saik. A small smirk settled across his maw. And that was why he would beat the lessons into his son if he had to. Make him the best wolf there ever was. Next to him of course.

Saei paused a few feet from the den entrance, nose to the sky slightly to sniff out Daunt's scent. It wasn't hard. The pup had left only minutes before he had awoke. Pently of a fresh trail to go by. The Alpha grinned now, shifting his weight from one paw to another. How long could the pup evade his father before he found him? A test in it all. "Beware, my Prince. Saei's going to find you." His pace started out slow, soon turning into a fast trot as Saei followed the scent his nose laid out for him.

Waddling into the forest, the forest seemed to whisper about how his father would be angry. Oh well. His dad didn't have the backbone to punish his baby. Maybe he did, but he could slip out of it easily. He knew when to be obediant. Wagging his little tail as he waddled through the forest, his father should probably be on his trail. Waddling a little faster, he came to a little mud pool that might just make his scent dull. He jumped in the puddle, and rolled and rolled, filling his scent with the scents of wolves, pups, trees, bark, bugs and so on, mud slathering his form. He jumped around, leaving mud prints every where.

Jump here and there, splash mud all over place. He saw his father, and his scent. He ran behind a tree, and peaked out, sopping with mud.

[Saei]

The scent was getting stronger as he moved. Saei pused by the little mud puddle, a small grin on his features as he glanced at all the little pawprints. "Daunt, you do know that mud is just another way to track you unless it has hardened, right?" he asked, glancing around at the trees that made up his territory. Saei snickered to himself, crouching low and following the trail of prints that made the most straght line and didn't double back.

Ears pulled back, tail still behind him as Saei slowly crept up onto the tree. He stopped before it, gathering his hind legs underneath him before taking a sprint at the tree, pressing a paw on Daunt's little puppy form. "You'll never win like that!" he mused, laying down with his paw still on his son. Another yawn came from the male.

"What are you doing, Daunt? All mud covered like that. Trawn's just going to have to give you a bath when we get back to the den. And then Peek and Saik will laugh because they were all nice and clean." Eyes looked up at the tree top as he spoke, a grin on his maw after he finished and looked back down at the Prince of Zaevrian.

[Daunt]

He grinned as he watched his dad, of course, the little tyke had no idea that this was going to be some thing of no pleasure.

The little pup was squished by a pup and he struggled around. "I will just get them all muddy then!" He cackled evilly, squirming around, the mud drying in clots on his dad's paw. He squeezed from out of the paw and jumped up, diving into the mud and splashing around, then nearing his dad and shaking vigiorously to get the mud all on him. "Hey dad, why are you bleeding?" he asked. Little did he know about the new warrior.

[Saei]

Saei watched as Daunt went to play into the mud, coming back to shake it on him. One eye closed as he lifted his head away frmo the mud flinging wolf pup. Lips lifted as he looked at his now brown spotted fur, tail flicking back and fourth in irritation. He put another paw on Daunt to keep him in one place, ears pulling back than flicking up again. He grinned at his son. "Keep this up and I'll bite off every single little toe on your paws."

At the mention of blood, he lokoed towards one of the scars he had gotten. It must have opened when he was chasing after Daunt. small sigh came from him. "A wolf wanted acceptance as a warrior. I tested her out and she passed. It mst have opened when I was chasing you, you little whelp."

[Daunt]

Daubt observed his father carefully, earks perked; the scruff of fur on his head waved a bit as the breeze past. Attempting to wag his tail, the tip wiggled back and forth. Obviously the manipulative ankle biter was having a freaking blast annoying the hell out of his father. He stood up on his hind legs, and nudged his dad's cheek softly, and then dropped back down. Looking up at his dad and grinning a manipulative grin, he jerked from his grip and attempted to go squash some bugs.

He stopped as his dad spoked. He grinned happily, and yipped excitedly. "What's her name?" He asked. "What does she look like?" He said and nuzzled his leg to get him to spill. Next time when he saw this wolf, he would challenge her.

[Saei]

Saei glanced down at his son as he nuzzled him, drawing his head up away from the affection. A grin spread over his maw as the little pup ran around killing bugs that crossed his path. And then the questions started. A small sigh left Saei, the alpha getting to his paws and turning so his back was to his son. Glancing over his shoulder, the male opened his jaws to speak.

"Rival," was all he said before trotting deeper into the forest. "C;mon, Daunt. I want to show you something.

[Daunt]

ooc x I am so sorry for not replying! I didn't mean to hold you off for so long!

The pup was busy smashing bugs and watching their guts squirt all over the place and nearly got sprayed in the eye, that he didn't even notice his dad had began to get up. He licked his paws in curiousity, and nearly frizzed up and spit all over the place, making blucky sounds. It wasn't that bad, but it wasn't his first choice of food -- and there was no way in hell he was going to show his dad that he ate .. bugs. His tail wagged happily, but immediately his eyes snapped up to his father as he spoke and his tongue wildly hung out of his jaws and grazed his black chin that was tipped with a bit of red from a squirrel's head he ripped off on accident when he was playing with it and smashing it around n' stuff. He didn't mean too, though.

He got up. Rival? What a strange name. His dad didn't even check to see if he was following, just called his name. He puffed out all dominant and cocky like and strutted beside his father and flagged his tail just like him with closed eyes, only to fly smack into a tree. He jumped up and scoffed, but continued the march and slapped right into his dad's legs as he stopped walking. "Oomph!"

[Daunt]

Bump.

[Daunt]

Bump.

[Saei]

Saei had little tolerance for anyone except a choice few. Daunt was being a bit too cocky for his own good. Still, the dark pelted male smirked as his son ran into a tree. He couldn't help it. The alpha laughed, head lowered and eyes closed until it dyed down to snickers. Saei continued padding forward through the forest until the trees thinned and the land became hills. Instantly, his gaze hardened, a low rumble forming in his throat.

"You never go past this tree line, understand? The wolves in his area are mean and vicious, killing anything that crosses their path." That was an obvious lie to anyone who knew the other pack well enough.
