It had been a long week crossing the plain lands with little in the way of nourishment for either the body and the mind. Little food had graced Aeons lips and even less company to quell his growing loneliness as the cold a desolation began to slowly sink in, seeping through his coat and deep into his thoughts filling him with an uneasy sinking feeling.
Amid-st the feeling of sinking Aeon couldn't help but wonder why there would be the smell of earth cloaked by decaying things mixed in his thoughts followed by the touch of warm wet gritty mud. Bringing one paw up for closer inspection he became fascinated by what he saw before him as if it was unnatural and didn't belong. The glistening marsh mud dripped in great goblets from his paw slivering out from his fur and slide between his toes, each globule holding out till more joined it before falling from his body leaving grit between claws but shining like great marsh gems of one united color in mid flight and then shattering there illusion upon the black water of the surrounding bog.
With the illusion of beauty hand in hand with the illusion of safety in thought shattered by the cruel black waters of this new unbeknown land and its hidden dangers. As he stood in wander at the place laid out before him his sinking feel returned only now he new it was no longer just a feeling he was truly sinking into the muddy earth of which he had chosen to tread. He knew of such land told to him when he was but a pup-ling by his farther. That such places would feed off those that wish to cross it but these places belonged in folk tails didn't they, Stories you'd wish to tell your pubs when they leave the den without you guidance and supervision. But not here or anywhere could these blood thirsty grounds dwell could they.
As he struggled to be free of the grounds vice like mew he began to wonder if this was how he was suppose to end. His heat quelled by stagnant water and his lungs filled with feted swill. With his energies quickly draining from trying to stay above the marshes surface and his stamina waining with equal effort there was only two courses of action that came to mind one was to call for help and the other was to reduce how quickly he was sinking.
At that moment in time there was no point being afraid all he could do was trust his mothers gift to him the power of an unseen flame. With his mind set and resolution for what punishments he may suffer firm he was ready. Breathing in a large lung fall of the foul tasting feted smelling air he focused on raising his own body temperature to that of a wight hot flame. Resulting in drying out some of the surrounding land that holds him leaving it more solid then before to the point of mud bricks and leaving both his fur and eyes aglow with streaks of golden radiance bathing the small area around him in light as his body adapts to cope with his new temporary temperature and causing the gas in his lungs to rapidly expand as he raised his head skyward to let loose a howl that most wolves could never match in distance by ear, which shuck the very air with its heat leaving a distorted wavering column above him.
As he released the air that threatened to destroy his body from within. Charged with its new found energy he knew he would be left physically weak for days and his throat would be in no better shape but like his body still usable if for nothing more then minor work and whispering an apology.

" Jee, why does this not surprise me?" " I dont know sister mine! This is where we're suppose to go" These were the loudest conversations from two siblings. One was floating in the marshlands around and one was flying in the sky leaving flame balls where she went. They were new to the marshlands they had heard about the alpha and alphrass who owned these lands. They were both having a fall blown conversation where any wolf was travelling could hear them.
" I feel quite at home here though!, why dont you sister mine?" The fire wolfress sighed and shouted from the skies " Because i dont! It feels all wet and blegh! But because you feel at home ill have to indure it" This wolves were different from any other. Because one was fire and one was water. But hopefully they'll be able to accepted into this pack. The sisters had travelled along way and were hungry. " I can see a rabbit! Or something, can you sis?" The water wolf looked and shuddered. " Im going for something easier, the salty fish!" And without hesitation she dived. The red wolfress shock her head and followed the rabbit, she shouted and pounced on the rabbit from up high. The poor creature went from live to limp under her paws. " Hmm that keep me going! Have you caught yours sister?" " Nope not yet!" Bubbles came from the murky waters and she came up with a fish in her mouth.
They both ate their fill, the red wolfress leaving a rabbit carcass and the water wolfress eating every morsal of the fish she had caught. They both yawned, there was a heat rave from the red wolf as she walked. The marshes around the packlands was near enough frozen so the water wolfress got out. She did start to shiver, but her water wings flicked out the water that left on her oily body. Both sets of wings,paws,ears and eyes listened out for any movement in the lands. This marsh was covered in the sweet smell of wolves and maybe a new place to call home.
They were both flying and maybe swimming, Jee was feeling the mud on her fur and it was clinging to her like wasps to a honeycomb. " My god this mud is so hard to swim in!" " The why dont you walk on the grassy bits like me sis? Its not that hard surely just to walk beside your sibling once in a while Jees!" " Hay! Dont you use my name in vain" Before they both knew it, they were gigglering. The twins had walked along way when a smell crept up Serafina's nostrils. " Sis! Can you smell that? It smells like a wolf" Jeevika nearly did a flip! " Maybe we've found the packlands" They both looked to each other and ran across the islands.
A few miles down the way, it wasnt the pack members, but a wolf stuck in the mud. " We ran all this way to see a wolf get itself stuck!" " We cant leave him sister... He looks bad" " How do you know it's a brute? He could kill us in a instant if we help him" A few more minutes passed of the sister's squabblering when Serafina shouted " Excuse me? Are you still alive?" " Good one sis!"

After over-exerting both his body and mind the waves of exertion seemed to distort time around him as he waited for a reply to his call or even dare he hope some aid to accompany it. But as he waited he realized that waiting for either one would drive him mad for seconds could be minuets or hours just passing moments as long as his senses tried in vain to regain there grasp on the passage of time's flowing sands.
As he mused at how badly he had hurt himself he spotted a small group of fire flys in the distance and as he watched he realized how badly he must of thrown his senses, they seemed to dance before his very eyes gracefully flashing there rear ends as if to some unheard musical rhythm that seemed to be familiar to the half buried wolf. The longer he watched there display the more it seemed that they were trying to form shapes in the air, the lights blurred drawing images in the shadows before him. They showed wolves dancing and frolicking to the arrival of a new born cub and its parents watching over him the mother was bright and friary and the other was just as dark as she was bright but equally as warm and loving when by her side.
As the celebration was displayed before him Aeon felt an overwhelming sadness that almost consumed him stretching out from his heart and coating his thoughts of past joys and sorrows. He showed little of his past burdens and spoke even less of them but the pain has never left his inner pup and nor has it lessened its grip on his heart. Unable to move away from the little creatures dance and the option of looking away closed as they danced around him. All he could do was close his eyes and hope that sleep would take quick hold of him for he knew his wariness was controlling his thoughts and picking at wounds that would never heal but maybe he could forget for a time, loose himself in the void of a dreamless sleep.
Here in the darkness he found safety from his past sanctuary from the rubble of his crumbling heart and at last for a time be nothing at all. " We cant leave him sister..." Some think was wrong?.. There shouldn't be voices here. Not in a place with no dreams "...He could kill us in a instant if we help him" Where are they coming from? As he searched for the source of the voices that roused him calling out for those that entered his haven within his mind, his body near the pups silently grunted and yiffed as if caught in a bad dream Where are you? Please don't leave me alone I don't wanna be alone any more please don't leave me PLEASE!! As his sanctuary slowly became a prison of loneliness and solitude he began to panic, feeling more and more like that puppy so long ago who heard his siblings cry and choke in pain and remembering the sent of his father's coat soaked through with the smell of his mothers blood he was losing his mind to madness, to the madness of a time so long ago he never wanted to remember. Passing moments seemed to stretch trapping and tormenting him driving his mind mad and quickening his hearts destruction as the rubble turned to dust, he needed to wake up he need to escape this nightmare while he's still himself and he need help to do so. " Excuse me? Are you still alive?" The words turn to fire as they ran over his form forcing the shackles that bound him here to break and making the shadows that griped him to flee and sliver back to the deepest parts of his mind where they came from.
As he awoke groggily from his nightmare he saw a beautiful wolf who had blue fur with an unusual main that ran between what can only be described as wings made out of water and scales and continue to grow down to the tip of her tail But as she turned to speak he saw that her most attractive feature was her slimline face " Good one sis!" After she spoke he realized that the words were not for him and in fact were for another, to Aeon she looked like a cascade of heat a flame as her hot red fur seem to shimmer with heat and sparks of fire, her wings were large and cover with the same dancing fire that seemed to be beneath her pelt but unlike them they were not covered by fur but burning flaring brightly for all to see and he wonder what it would be like to be cared for and taken under her wing as a mate. Realizing that he had been asked a question and that he must look utterly pathetic in his current condition tears began to descend from his eyes it was all to much for him. Twice he had nearly lost himself once being his life and the other being his mind, the wound of the past bleeding anew from his treacherous nightmare and now to be found half dead half buried by two attractive prospective mates one of which he has already begun to love but for her to see him in this appalling state it was all he could do to whisper "Please don't leave me."

" Oh my sister mine, the muddy thing spoke" " Oh of course it did," And from that moment, the muddy thing did speak. Jeevika and Serafina walked up to it with causion. They could see from the muddy creature it was a brute, he seemed to be really stuck in the mud. Serafina being the most incrivtise wolf stood near the brute, he seemed in pain because his eyes had leaked. " Jee, we've gotta get him out" They both agreed to try and hoist him out from underneath. But how would they do such a thing when neither of them had powers to lift heavy objects? Jeevika walked around the brute and the mud that consumed him. " I could possibly make a bubble around him and me to protect him from your fire? You could possibly melt the mud?" That seemed a good idea to Jeevika she's the one that comes up with an idea, but Serafina wasn't that to it. " Im not sure, sis, what if i burn him or piece your bubble whilst trying to melt the mud? and what if the mud turns into even more slush?" All the questions whizzed through the sisters minds.
Jeevika looked to the brute, he was stuck pretty bad and what if he was hurt? They could break his legs more just getting him out. " Sis, ive looked around there's water under the mud, maybe i could swim under and ease him out that way?" Serafina went to where Jeevika was and noticed there was a water logged hole right under where the brute was stuck. She looked to her sister and then back again. " Hmmm you could do that, but then again, what he'd think you nosing under his tail?" The twins laughed for a little while whilst trying to him. " Poor thing, his probarly been there for ages!" Serafina wasnt a wolf to hold emotions very well, but then again a strugglering wolf or even her sister still played with her emotions. She walked back to where the weeping brute was. " My sister and me are going to try and get you out... But have you got boundries issues? Where you dont like noses going?" How corny did that sound? She heard her sister giggle a little and she rolled her eyes.
The twins were thick as mud, and worked together but sometimes they stick their noses where it isnt needed. So this brute might have boundries issues with noses, or even female bodies for that matter. But Serafina did see from the brute, he was looking at her weird. Her firey wings eased a little and lay flat against her body. Jeevika's wings did the same. When they were both relaxed, their wings did even though they were away from eachother. They didnt have a power where they could hear each other's thoughts, but they did have that twin bond. They both looked to each other and wondered how on earth they were going to get this poor brute out of a sticky situration.

There was much running through Aeon's mind but nothing as prominent as the thoughts related to these two wolves what must they be thinking what emotions might they be masking behind the beauty before him, of one thing he was sure and that was that they meant him no harm for if they did. What they would be seeing would no longer be a brute stuck and weary in the earths vice like maw, no if they meant him harm they would show it. There is a look that all hunters and killers have a look you see in a predators eyes it is that of unhidden thirst for blood which must be sated intermingled with a hint of triumph dancing hand in hand with the thrill of the coming slaughter.
But these two showed non of this all he could see was that of mild concern in there eyes and a humourus smile as they joked over something that seemed to please them both, what was it that he had missed while his thoughts tuck him over did they joke over his situation or perhaps the crying wolf before there eyes and paws No! Neither of those situations seemed to fit them both so that can only mean it was something other all that registered was something about his tail and nosing about it. But surly they couldn't want to and even if they did why and how he was stuck solid in a harness he'd created to keep himself alive and from sinking further.... This was when he realised that his situation was getting more serious then he would have liked to admit, he hadn't realised it due to the pleasant distraction that these two fine fae offered but his paws were wet in fact so was his legs with the under belly beginning to feel some what moistened. Between his weeping and longing for the fiery fae before him he'd greatly failed to realise the waters he once evaporated around his form to keep him from drowning under the swamp had slowly been replaced by the moister of the surrounding area. If I’m not fighting the marsh lands for my life in there cesspool waters, I am trying to break from my dreamless dreams with my mind in one piece and I’m not doing that I end up back to fighting for my life as i did before. Can I really make a home here away from the plains? He thought bitterly.
My sister and me are going to try and get you out... But have you got boundries issues? Where you dont like noses going?" Now he understood why they were laughing as he blushed deeply, in all his life he couldn't think of anyone who had even gone close that area surely only a mate should go near there not that he had anyone in mind.... Blushing even deeper as he tried to speak. "ppppplease ddon't be tttto rougth wiwiwith me. BBBut let mme stop mmmyself from from sisisinking first" Thinking himself stronger then he was ignoring his own body’s protest he tried once again to dry some of the area around him. A few moments past and the tears flooded the fur under his eyes he attempted to use his power again and again with no visible change save for his eyes as they changed from there normal amber red to a brilliant gold that fail in completely covering his eyes and simply looked like his iris’s were flaking as the gold showed under his amber red. But eventually his attempts would be his undoing as it proved to be so, he violently shuddered in pain crying out allowed unable to bear the strain of repeated attempts on a drained body his head jerked quickly and painfully to the side as liquid breached his lips painting them red as well as the ground to his left. Head now laying on the ground before the fiery fea's paws with his ears flat against his head whimpering quietly as his form shivered every so often his cries momentarily louder each time he did so.

The twins broke out of their fit of giggles. Serafina thought it might be worth melting the mud, but then she realised that how the male got himself even more stuck was maybe he did the same thing? There were loads of questions that needed to be answered but then again, the poor brute looked so tired. " Jee, can you see if you can swim under him and hoist his back end out and ill grab him by the scruff?" Jeevika was circling around the stuck brute, " Well, i dont know sister mine, the mud seems really dry and not really swimable but i can see if i can stick my head in under his private area and hositing him up that why" Jeevika walked around the back of the brute and shouted. " Dont worry mate! We'll get you out in no time!"
Jeevika went down on her belly and tucked her feet under her chest and placed her whole body in the hunting position. She then nodded towards Sera and ducked her head under the melting mud. " Cor, this mud is so mushy! Its getting into my fur!" She closed her eyes and then what happened next was werid. Jeevika's eyes glassed over and she opened them. She couldnt see anything but, she nosed his legs. She then gigglered in her head and placed her nose under his tail. " Sisss! III'vvvee foooouuunnndd hhhiss leeeegss, iiimmm gggoiinng tttoooo starrrttt pusssshhiiing!" As she did that, Serafina heard. " We are going to hoist you out now" When she heard his plea about being gentle she winked at him. " Dont worry hun! we wont.... But i need to get hold of you by the scruff"
She watched the tiring brute as he was hoist out of the mud, oh the poor male, she watched his tired body come out and she grabbed the scruff of his neck. She helped Jee push him out and she pulled. She could feel the male,yelp a little because the fire from her muzzle and the drying mud on his fur. " Soorry, your almost out!" She did have a mouthful of fur and muscle.
A few moments later, the tiring brute was out his fur was covered in mud and his legs looked so tired and red from the mud that consumed him. Serafina looked into his eyes, and saw pain. She left him to rest when she went over to Jeevika. " Hey! Nice one sis! We work well as a team!" " We sure do sister mine" They both rubbed foreheads and laughed, they whispered so quielty even a creature with good hearing couldnt hear. " How was his manly hood?" " Big" They giggled again and looked to the male, " Bless him! Ill think we should look after him until he gets his strength back" " Yes, I agree... Who shall take the first watch!" Serafina shoot up! " Ill do it sis, you go and get food for yourself and the brute"
Jeevika nodded and went away. Serafina nodded and watched her sister walk away to get some food for her, the brute and Jeevika. She walked around the sleeping brute. His body was so still and peaceful. " You look so cute sleeping" She sighed and waited for Jeevika to bring back some meat. A few hours later Jeevika returned with three rabbits in her mouth. " Here you are sister mine.... Tuck in!" They both started to eat and left the other rabbit for the brute.
