Doku
A deathly aroma swept through the air as Doku approached a solid piece of ground, his wings swept powerfully as came down for a landing. His paws touched ground and he lowered his head, looking around carefully and treading lightly forward. His paws were caked in mud up to his ankles and his face was wet from him flying through a few mist clouds. Doku felt the ground gently until he found a spot that felt safe for sitting and plopped his rear down, his tongue lolling out of his mouth as he tried to regain his breathe. "Dang, I've been flying for hours!" Doku panted out, looking around, he wasn't used to flying so much but it was almost impossible for him to walk here, he'd take three steps then sink into the mud, he just didn't know where was safe to walk and where wasn't! Doku looked around, the marsh seemed to carry on forever in every direction and there was a think mist around so he couldn't see all that far in the first place, Doku sighed, this just wasn't fair! Doku had gotten so tired he'd lost all power over his abilities and was letting his sent loose freely, which made a thin green cloud surround his body, that even HE could see. "Well at least I don;t need to worry about not being found if i get lost." Doku said, glaring off into the distance, as per usual his first impression would be that of oh gawd what is that smell!!! "Well maybe I'll meet someone nice!" Doku said, hopping to his paws again. He lept forward, spreading his wings wide, gliding on to another solid patch of ground, landing with a loud thud before turning to the next and repeating, he'd need to keep moving if he wanted to find a good spot to send the near approaching night.

SILENCE Mood: Unsure She had hear him long before she saw him, and she had been told of him long befor that.
She walked slowly, the sound of wingbeats in the distance touching her delicate ears. She had wings too, she couldn't fly but that was beside the point, or at lease thats what she liked to think. She had been waiting for the wolf "Doku" for some time now. The voices of the dead seemed quite insistant on their meeting and of course, they always seemed to know best.
He landed with a thud further away then she had anticipated, his voice startling her somewhat. She peered sneakily around the knarled roots of a drooping willow as the brute continued to mumble to himself.
It was quite an amusing sight to say the least, a brute such as he playing leapfrog through the marshes. she quickly scuttered out of her hiding spot. "Excuse me" she called out some way behind his quickly diminishing form. "Please sir, slow"
Her eyes norrowed sharply, their bright green fury peeking out from mud coated fur. Her mangled ear sat as high as it had been in ages and fresh blood coated her scabbed and scarred back legs. She was just a pup, meak and damaged from muzzle to toe. Although she had no reason to doubt this new brute she still maintained a watchful gaze, almost like that of a valture waiting for wolves to leave their un-guarded carcass.
"Leaping around like that will likely get you stuck in a bog" She called out as loudly as her meek little voice could. Her ears now flicking back awkwardly.
(OOC: Sorry if its not quite up to scratch, havn't RPed in some time so give me a post or two to get back into the swing =3)

Doku
His forepaws landed with a thud as he landed on another hard piece of ground then suddenly a voice startled him, his paws slipped and he landed face first in a puddle of mud. He lifted his head and sat his rump down, shaking his head clean. Doku turned his head in the direction of the voice, squinting his eyes through the mud. He saw a figure in the distance, small and mangled, Doku shook his head out and took a double take. Doku stood up and stared at the small female, e couldn't believe his eyes, perhaps it was the mist? "Oh...uh thank you?" Doku said, tilting his head slightly, he had to get closer, this pup could not really be there, she looked near, or past, dead. He lifted himself to his back paws and flapped his wings powerfully, leaping forward and gliding closer to the pup. He landed not to far from, her, not looking to the ground as he landed, and this was a mistake, his paws hit mud and he sank till his belly. "AH for the love of...!" Doku looked down as his body was covered in muck, trying to pull his paws out, but there was not a chance...he was stuck. His ears hugged the back of his head and he looked away in pure embarrassment. "er...excuse me, but could you maybe...?" He looked to the pup, smiling shyly, hoping she'd be able to pull him out.

SILENCE Mood: Unsure Yet Amused A smirk played upon her somewhat sinister features. “Doku, am I correct?” she didn’t wait for an answer, the voices had already informed her of everything, his past, his present. All he was had been imprinted in her memories. She scanned through the assorted voices that spoke of him till she found ones that may be of use.
She wasn't quite sure if she trusted him yet, nor if the words spoke quite the truth. All she sorted through yelled quite clearly she should stay well away lest she ruin her scense of smell. No one could smell that bad could they?
“I’m afraid I would be of no use to you” she sighed stepping closer till her face was now level with his. She was tiny in comparison, even though he was half stuck in the ground. There was more than one reason for this, firstly so she could get her nose within that green mist around him, and second, to whiff. Nothing, not even the smell of a brute. He was scentless...“I have never had that problem” she forced a smile, “I’m quite light so…” he voice drifted as the voices chattered away once more.
“Oh no wait, there” she raised one muddy paw in the direction of an overhanging brunch. It hung just out of reach of the brute’s maw so as delicately as a moth she trotted over, grabbed the end of the brunch between two teeth and carefully pulled it within reach.
“Its stron’er an it ooks” she mumbled although from appearances she might as well have just given him a blade of grass to help him out.

Doku
Doku looked down as the pup said she couldn't help, but seemed a little unsure when the branch was lowered toward him. "um well, okay, if you say so..." He said, stretching his neck out as far as it could until he could wrap his fangs around it. Once he had he tugged to pull himself up, and slowly but surely started to get loose from the muck. Doku's front paws came free and he started digging himself free. The second his legs popped out he scrambled onto an area of solid ground. A sigh escaped his mud caked lips and he looked down to the pup. "Well, thanks a bunch, and yeah, it's Doku...." He said, looking around. There was very little light coming into this area, and any light was blurred by the smog, this was a very daunting area, and Doku couldn't help but wonder what a pup like this would be doing here...alone none the less. This simply made Doku more curious about this strange little creature that stood by him. "So, what's your name?" He said looking down at the mini fae. She truly was an odd little creature, some how knowing his name, and such an odd appearance, this might be an interesting encounter yet, and meeting a pup was nice for Doku, pups had no reason to fight, no expectations and this one seemed to lack any sense of smell, which was a good bonus. Suddenly Doku felt how filthy he was and began to shake himself clean, completely forgetting the small fae was without splashing distance.

SILENCE Mood: None She starred, concentrating hard not on what he said but on his smell. She wrinkled her nose tight trying, hoping to find some trace of scent, something to make her gag a flee in disgust. But there was nothing, absolutely nothing. Was it wrong to be upset because there was no smell? What if… dear god… was her nose broken! Suddenly as she was mid thought something covered her eyesight.
“oh” she said clenching her eyes shut, she jerked her head back as if it might avoid the onslaught of mad, or perhaps throw the mud from her face away. It did neither. “thank you” she smirked sarcastically slightly more calm now she knew this wolf was not going to eat her. “My name is silence, it is a pleasure to meet you” her voice carried out like an eerie whisper quickly envolped in the buzz of flys and thrum of everyday marshland life.
She begun walking away, as though leaving the brute behind before turning her shaggy head back towards him. “Follow me, step only where I step and you wont sink. We shall walk and talk, the fog is thick with bugs and night is soon approaching. Lucid is likely to eat you up unless we find safety quickly.” She said this somewhat mockingly but knew the wolf understood nothing of him. But she knew, oh did she know of everything that was playing down, did she care. No.

Doku
He cringed as he saw the mud hit the pup, but luckily she seemed fine with it. "Hehe, sorry." He chuckled, it wasn't meant to happen but it put a smile on his maw. "...ssssssilence..." Doku tilted his head, it was a cool name in his opinion. His smile vanished as the pup began to move, she stopped and called for him, he quickly jumped forward, a bad move, his leg fell knee deep into the muck. He steadied his body and tugged it out, before carefully following the pup. "Lucid?" Wow, the way she said that sent a shiver down his spine. "What is that like some scary story mothers tell their pups around here?" He said, catching up to her and following directly in her paw tracks, not an easy task, her legs were a lot closer together than his. "ooooh spooky LUCID fear the evil wolf who will snatch you up in the fog!" Doku said, lowering his head and pulling a threatening face, trotting forward, looking as evily as he could muster. "Haha sounds like a bad joke to me!" He raised his head high, trotting like a show horse, putting on his brave face. "Psh, let this 'lucid' find us I'll show him was a REAL wolf is like, i mean what kind of name is lucid anyway? sounds like something I'd name a pet bunny!" Doku said, standing still now and shaking his head, this was a huge joke to him, the stranger seemed like a myth, a wolf THAT big, REALLY? Doku doubted it and even if he was that big, he APPARENTLY had AMAZING senses, SO Doku would just let out a stink cloud and the thing would die, haha.

SILENCE Mood: Amused "Oh is that so?” she raised an eyebrow mockingly, revelling her patched left eye and unfortunately her major weakness. She snapped her head back. He knew now if he sprung from that side she would be at his mercy. “Well” she huffed raising her head high. “Its so nice to know a poor little pup such as myself is safe with a handsome brute by my side to protect me” she snickered to herself. Not in a nasty way, more to prove to herself that she was happy.
It had been a long time since she met another wolf. She wasn’t much for the pack and preferred to linger on the outskirts of their territory. She still wasn’t sure how she should be treating this wolf. The voices where still demanding she realise how bad he smelt, her nose still strained to find the slightest whiff. “By the way, the alpha’s name is Kerrigan, just so you are for-warned”
Sun? He smelt like sun. She stopped abruptly, “Sun?” she asked turning to him, a most confused look on her face. He smelt like sun, like a wolf that had lay under its beautiful warmth far from the marshes. “Oh and, uh, here we are”
She stood just a few steps from a massive tree, its roots twisted tightly around each other creating a cave under the tree itself, and naturally the tree had dramatically dried the earth leaving it almost water free and covered in thick, lush grass.

Doku
Doku smirked widely as the pup spoke, a strong hansom brute huh? first time he'd heard that one! He trotted proudly, he'd noticed the pup looking back at him, a small patch where an eye should be. But he payed no attention to this, other than to stand a little more to the other side of her, he liked to let wolves know he was around, not in their blind spots. He sat down and looked at the large tree, mouth gaped open. "Kerrigan huh?" He looked suddenly to the put as she said Sun, tilting his head. "hahaha you think I smell like SUN?" He let out a chuckle, he actually liked it, he thought sun was a good thing, it meant peace, happiness, sunniness meant joy to him, so to be compared to that seemed nice to him. "No I don't think I smell like sun, I don't know what I smell like but apparently I smell something foul!" He said, pulling a disgusted face at the pup. "nice digs you got here by the way, though, is anybody home?" He said, whiffing the air, there were a ton on scents but he couldn't be sure if they were fresh or old. Doku grinned "Say, Sil, is this Kerrigan guy aggressive at all?" He said, leaning forward, not waiting for a reply he threw his head up and let out a loud howl, hearing it echo through the twisted wood of the roots that made the den, Doku wasn't really one for a subtle entrance.

SILENCE Mood: Fearful Silence cringed from his sudden out-burst. She liked kerrigan, he was a wonderful alpha and she deeply respected him but to face him? No, out of the question. Alpha’s don’t like the omegas, nope. Not. At. All.
She slinked slightly to one side, her ears flat against her dome. Her little form low to the ground. She was quite, as normal for her when among strangers, yet she couldn’t help but glance constantly over at the brute. She never made eye-contact, omegas just DON’T do that but she couldn’t keep her foolish little pups eyes away from those bright orbs. Glowing…
“Umm, no” she said with haste. “But if you will excuse me, I am going.. in… there” she slinked her way around him, low, invisible… although a white blob sliding along a patchy green and brown earth is hardly visible. “oh” she said again, her form now well hidden among the roots and away from his prying eyes. “tell me, I know you smell, I can smell you of course. Well, I smell sun but…”
She wasn’t speaking clearly, she poked her head round a knarled root and became visible once more. “It’s a very unique gift, why not make use of it? You would make a good leader, no wolf would dare enter the packlands of an alpha with such a strong dominant scent” it sounded somewhat odd, but it was true. to her though all she smelt was sun-warmed fur and a faint scent of crushed grass.

Doku
The sudden change in the pup's actions was apparent and Doku watched in shock. "oh, uh I see" He said, his head following the tiny form slinking across the ground. He looked back to the den and it didn't seem as thought anyone was coming out. "well I'm not trying to be a leader, just join the ranks, you know?" He said, looking back to the pup, she seemed very uncomfortable he didn't like this at all. He walked till he was next to the pup, and lowered his head to her level. "Hey come on out, don't be scared...you afraid of your alpha? well HA if he tries anything with me around! Alpha or not not gonna let anyone hurt you!" Doku said, nudging her with his nose, he had false confidence, but he knew for sure he could take a hit. And even if he meant he'd get kicked out of the territory he would not allow anyone to hurt a pup, ever. "Look he's not here, I don't hear him, just relax okay?" He said stepping back slowly and urging the pup to act as she had a moment ago, this fearful reaction made no sense to Doku, he'd been an Omega, the best thing to do was just deal with it, submit when it was asked but hold your head high other wise, you were a member like any other wolf after all.

SILENCE Mood: Curious She blinked, dumbfounded and completely shocked. He had said he would protect her, that he wouldn’t let anyone hurt her. That was nice, very nice. “umm, that’s awful sweet of you” she said realising his discomfort. She ambled out, no where near as withdrawn as before.
I wasn’t trying to make you feel bad she laughed sitting down on her rear, “I just haven’t been around to many wolves lately and, well to be frank, your and Kerrigan aren’t the only wolves out here oui?” she flicked her ears around for any sign of movement. “by the way, tell me. What makes you come here?” she pricked her ears and cocked her head to the side curiously, she knew all this of course but she was eager to make conversation.
“Tell me, what makes you so bold. Not to seem rude but the voices have mentioned a great many fights on you behalf.”
Her eyes wide with pup’s curiosity, yes she was wise, and probably knew more than most wolves learnt in a lifetime but innocence was still there. Partially. She would have gladly learnt about this wolf on her own and for a strange moment she resented the voices in her head for depriving her of this. She had never really “Liked” I wolf before. Not like a mate loves his other half but a soft, warm feeling. Safety?

Doku
Doku looked the pup over a she settled down, the the questions came, Doku looked off into the distance, he didn't like talking about his fights, mainly because he didn't WANT any of them to happen. "Well, yes I've been in many scraps, and I can hold my own in a fight, maybe not WIN but I live, and that's all I need." Doku said, looking down to the pup. "And why i chose here? well quite frankly, I didn't" Doku looked away again, pulling his ears tight to his head. "I.." he coughed and looked down. "I er got lost.." He looked away, rather embarrassed, he had a sense of direction, but he had gotten so lost in thought that once he snapped back to reality he was in the swampy area. Doku looked to the little pup and smiled "you're an omega right?" He asked, he knew the answer but he wanted to at least ask. "Yeah no fun being an omega, I kept being smacked around, wasn't BAD I mean I'm alive aren't I?" He said with a small smirk, he'd lived through hell and back and was here to tell the tale with a smile on his face. He looked back at the pup, he had an odd liking of this pup, she seemed nice, friendly, but something bothered him, something he couldn't quite put his paw on, she had said something about people talking to her...yet...

SILENCE Mood: Playful She closed her eyes, her matted fur clung to her mud-sleeked body and her tail wrapped around her scabbed paws. She listened intently for a time but as he continued to speak her mind remained fixed. “You’re an omega right”
“Umm, to be honest I’m not quite an omega… I just prefer to be left alone and if people don’t like you around then, well, they leave you alone” she laughed and opened her eyes to gaze at the brute once more. She could tell he was thinking things over then like a cold morning she realised what she had said. The voices.
She lowered her head slightly to peer up at him with a sinister expression, her teeth peeked maliciously out from under her lips but her scary attempt failed and she began snickering once more. “So, mr omega, anything you would like to ask me?” she stuck her tongue out slightly and winked, her bad eye momentarily covered. “or maybe I should ask more about you… like… why would you name such a cute bunny lucid, the poor thing would be teased to no end!” she snickered at her own joke regardless of the fact it would make little sense to Doku.
She slowly lowered herself down, her stomach resting on the cool earth as a stray fly began its common whirl around her oozing leg. She liked talking to someone, it was a nice change. Well… talking to someone she could see anyway.

Doku
"not quiet huh?" Doku chuckled at the pup's reaction to his question. "Well I suppose that works too." He watched her as she put on an angry look,raising his brow slightly and laughing lightly, she was kinda cute when she tried to be scary. He tilted his head as she spoke, haha Mr omega he thought to himself. "WELL yes the bunny would be made fun of, I mean, LUCID? really, sounds like Lipid!" Doku lowered his head and whispered. "In case you're wondering, that's a kind of FAT." He said before chuckling lightly, it was easy to insult someone when you didn't know them. Doku raised his head, he was just too curious. "So tell me, what did you meant by voices?" He asked, looking away and sounding far from serious, this was just a basic conversation, not an interrogation, the pup could say nothing for all he cared, he just wanted to ask. He sat his rump down and scratched his ear with his hind paw, his tongue lolling out of his mouth as he got the itch that had been nagging him all day so far. he then lowered himself down next to the pup, wagging his tail slowly as he sat.

SILENCE Mood: Playful She grinned slightly at his enthusiasms. And for once she had been hit with something she didn’t know! “well” she started, dragging it out with a false sigh. “I hear the voices of those who died, they tell me things. Although most I don’t want to hear…” she huffed slightly as though to show exactly how enoying they where.
That’s all there really was to it, she could have gone on and on about them but she felt this was all he needed to know, for now at least. She still smirked slightly, the brute didn’t seem to sharp but he was nice and good company. She thanked herself for listening to the voices for once. Had they not told her of the brute she probably would have gone by completely un-interested.
She watched Doku slyly, her ears flicking now and then. Maybe… just maybe she could have a little nasty fun with him. “you know…” she started, almost as if she couldn’t care the answer. “I could… probably let you hear…” she smiled to herself, her eyes glancing over his carefree form. It would be funny to say the least but his answer didn’t really matter. If he said no she would just pounce him instead.

Doku
Doku's eyes went wide....the....the DEAD?? His mind was yelling at him, but he quickly regained his composure and straightened his face, grinning lightly, she didn't seem to like her power, they shared a common trait then! He looked to her as she called is attention, then she offered. "um....let me, listen...?" The thought ran through his head...she would let him hear those who died? "er, thank but no thanks." He said looking away quickly, he liked keeping the living and the dead SEPARATE, though this pup was kind of a mix between the two. He was fine with her thoughts, as long as they were in HER head, not in his. His tail swished eagerly though, he was curious, something was gnawing at him. "You know...on second though." He said moving closer to her. "So how we do this?" He asked nervously, this was interesting could he REALLY listen to the dead? Seemed like an impossibility, well as long as he was alive at least. His eyes flashed wide. "You're not gonna kill me....are you?" He asked, leaning away quickly, such an odd little thing, who knew! Maybe she could kill him with a single touch! Doku looked away, he had official scared himself.

SILENCE Mood: Playful “Kill you?!” she blurted, her eyes wide. “No of course not” she laughed, almost in hysterics within seconds. Had he seriously though she would kill him? That had to be the funniest things she had ever heard. Definitely.
The laughter subsided almost a minute later, her eyes slowly focused on his waiting expression. “ok, if i… ah… scare you. Just say so…” she really wasn’t sure of this, she knew how easily she could kill him if she let down her guard. It would take every ounce of her little strength to pull this off and have it not hurt. Maybe she was wrong in offering in the first place… To late now…
She closed her eyes and like a horrid nightmare the voices screeched into the poor un-suspecting brutes ears. She knew it would be like having your legs torn off and thrown around. It lested less then a second, but enough to have caused a serious scare. She didn’t want this t be his only impression though. “umm wait!” she said quickly as she threw the voices back at him, the cycle repeated but then she quickly thinned it out.
There where only a few voices now, almost like a pack gathered for dinner. The voices of course seemed miles away but to be honest it was probably the most peaceful she had ever heard the. In her own head there was still the whole din but in his only limited voices.
“umm” she said withdrawing her gift a few seconds later. “Sorry, I think… do you have a headache?” she truly hoped he would lie.

Doku
Doku looked away as the pup laughed, yeah yeah laugh it up he thought, so he got scared, sue him. He shrugged it off though and looked to her, waiting for the 'voices' to come. He expected a single voice to speak to him but then the screaming came Doku clenched his eyes shut and lowered his head till it was flat on the ground. Then silence, Doku opened his eyes wide and looked at the pup, then more voices, even the few, and far off voices were too loud for him. His eyes were mad as he stared at the pup, is that what she lived with? Ignoring her question he looked here in the eyes.....eye and waited a long moment till he regained his cool. "Is it always like that?" He asked, laying down again and watching for the pup's reaction. Even that little taste had nearly killed him it was so much it surprised him how the pup could look so calm yet have all the going on behind her eyes......eye. Doku smiled lightly "well thank you for that." He said, he didn't want to seem rude, as painful and horrid as it was, it was a favor done for him and he appreciated it, the pup had obviously put a lot of effort into it and it seemed to mean a lot to her that he knew what it was really like, so he appreciated it. He leaned closer to her and whispered "You know, as big a brute as I am, if i spent 1 day..." he raised his paw and poked her. "...in your body, I think I wouldn't survive, you're a tough pup and you'd better know that." He said, smiling brightly at the little fae.

SILENCE Mood: Playful He wasn’t impress… she knew she shouldn’t have done that and it was wrong of her to do so yet the fact he at least acted as though he didn’t want to eat her throat meant more to her than most. She smiled one of her innocent pup smiles then to try and lighten the mood sighed “well at least I know how to wake you up in the morning” she did find this amusing, if only slightly.
“Oh” she said slowly getting to her feet. “Guess what?” she didn’t wait for an answer, instead she leaped up onto his back and settled herself down between his wing-joints. “Comfy” she mocked lowering her head slightly to peer down into his right eye. “But I think you should soften up here” she began padding around his neck somewhat cat-ish.
She hoped this wolf didn’t get rejected from the pack. He could be quite fun to bug…
She stretched sheepishly then flopped herself down again. “yup, much better” she mocked, stretching out and yet still being tiny enough to not fall off either side of the brute. She wriggled around to amplify the annoyance she was eager to provoke. But in a playful way…
