shadow smiled, he had noticed the look on vipers face. he looked smug, so shadow came up. "could you tell everyone whats so funny?" he growled at him. he looked at the rest of the pack. "everyone, lets see if he is as tough as he looks." he smiled, even more scary than El're. thunder crashed outside, and lighting illuminated his bloodstained teeth, claws and fur. "so.... would you care telling us what you are thinking? we will kill you for lying, understand?" he slurred, circling him. he smiled at vendal. "should i do the honours?" he smiled, letting his creepiness and his cold flow into the pack. "now... lets begin, shall we?" he smiled creepily, then advanced, claws outstretched, ready to attack at the slightest sign of a lie.

(oof forgot to ping yall ;-;)

They watched from a distance, pretending to be terrified for Viper. Hel was only a bit worried for the male. They quierly came forwards to get a better look. He better be careful about he was to say next - or Viper would be as good as done. They shuffled their paws, her ears practically bolded into their fur at this point- seemingly terrified.

Selkie

She looked at Viper, half in fear, but half in curiostity. Why did he act this way? she thought to herself. Selkie looked at Hel with a look that said Help him, please.

Viper jumped in surprise, ears going flat against his head. He didn't see why he had to picked out of everyone, he was just easily amused. He wouldn't say that out loud though, that wasn't an excuse. He whimpered a bit, feeling terror run through him, I can't tell him I think he's a useless leader...
"I..." His throat felt dry and he stayed quiet for a second, "Not-things... funny-y. I jus-st think w-we... need to fight in-nstead of... hid-ding."
He wasn't exactly lying, telling mostly what he was thinking, he just left out some parts, thoughts he would never share.

Selkie

"I think he is right!" Selkie said with a burst of courage. She stood next to him, smiling. "We have to emerge from the shadows someday before Bloodmoon wolves force us to do so! We need to fight!" She said with a burst of energy.

Hel nodded stiffly, slowly joining the two- internally smiling to themself. *If you come out of hiding El're will just kill you off quicker.*, They thought. Standing by Selkie and Viper, ears pricked. "Yes, we should bring the battle towards them, if we don't, we'll look like cowards." , They spoke in a soft, yet determined tone. They slowly pricked their ears, yet their usually towering hulk of a body was crouched towards the ground- terrified that they'll get her other eye ripped out.

shadow growled softly. "i will send out no more wolves. i have sent out on patrol, and no more shall go." he snapped angrily. his claws edged towards both hel and viper. "hey selkie? vendal? i have a job for you two. see these two?" he pointed at viper and hel "gaurd them. i think they look too smug. and for now, no blood should be spilt. i want it to be only chill that gets hurt tonight, and i didnt even want himm hurt at all." he growled at hel and viper, the lightning flashing again. rain started falling, and the wolves jumped onto ledges, all but hel, viper, vendal, selkie and shadow. he pointed at a corner, easy to gaurd. "run. that is your new home" he growled. his claws seemed to drip with blood, and then someone realised it was real. a wolf screamed as she pointed at hels shoulder. a big gash was running down his shoulder, and it was obvious that shadow had cut a muscle, as bone was showing. "thats what you get." he growled, and he jumped onto a high ledge where he could see everything.

Selkie

Selkie walked Hel and Viper to the corner. "I'm sorry." She frowned to them, "I'll help you get out... you have a good heart, both of you." She smiled to Viper and Hel.


Vendel

Vendel saw that Selkie was getting rebellious. "Come Selkie, don't chat with the omegas." He frowned.

Viper was trembling a bit, he hadn't asked for this. All he did had voiced his opinion and now the Alpha didn't trust him. His tail drooped a bit, was this really what he deserved? Yes, he could overstep his boundaries, but a wolf got hurt because of him.
