"Need me? Don't make me laugh. Those coyotes aren't worth my time." Jupiter responded carelessly. His head turned when she revealed Icy, his granddaughter. His bright orange eyes blazed. "You should be in the den with your parents. It's dangerous to be out here with the traps and Keos about."

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:15 am

Icy shrunk back a bit. "I... I'm sorry..." she whined.

Sonia growled slightly at Jupiter. "Be gentle with her. She is only a pup after all." she pointed out. She then looked at Icy with a softer gaze. "It's ok little one. Gramps here is just a bit rough on the outside. He means well though."

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:17 am

"Ha. With a mother like Zea she is probably used to it." Jupe muttered. He turned back to the little pup. His orange eyes softened slightly. "Come with me, I'll take you back myself."

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:36 am

Icy stayed where she was unsure of the male. Sonia sighed. "It's ok. I wouldn't leave you with this brute if I didn't trust him. Besides. I've stayed long enough and must return back to the spirit world for now." she explained to the pup.

The silvery male tapped the ground with his tail as he waited patiently. He watched Icy and Sonia, then turned his attention back on the sky.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:46 am

Icy nodded in understanding and the two exchanged their goodbyes. When the spirit faded Icy looked at Jupiter expectantly.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:47 am

"Alright, let's go." Jupiter spoke lightly. He padded forward through the forest, his black tail swaying behind him.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 12:55 am

Icy ran behind him trying to keep up on her small paws. Her tiny and delicate wings plastered to her body to keep them from getting injured.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:00 am

The silvery male slowed down slightly so she could keep up. Jupiter watched the path ahead of him. It was a good thing he knew this deadly forest like the back of his paw. "Walk behind me. That way you wont get in any traps." he ordered.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:21 am

Icy nodded and made sure to follow his pawsteps. She glanced up at him. "Why are there traps?" she asked.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:24 am

"To keep unwanted guests from getting to our dens. Only those of our pack know they're way around here. You will learn this too when your a certain age." Jupiter responded.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:32 am

"Are there traps in the trees as well? Because papa is teaching Ramiro to climb just like him. And my sisters can just fly above them. I'm hoping to be just like them but..." she uncurled her wings. "They said my wings are too tiny to fly." she said sadly.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:34 am

"No. We got rid of the traps after your father joined the pack." Jupiter replied. The silver male looked at her and her wings. "They will grow one day, and then you will be able to fly as well." he assured her.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:38 am

"You really think so?" she said perking up and wagging her tail happily.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:44 am

"Sure." Jupe replied. He stopped, seeing as they had reached the dens.

**skysong** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:51 am

Icy smiled happily before running over to her mother. "Mum! Mum! Guess what?!" she yipped happily climbing on top of her.

**Roary** Sat Apr 13, 2013 1:53 am

Ramiro's ears perked as he glanced at his sister. "Icy, where have you been?" he asked.

**Moon** Mon Apr 15, 2013 11:53 pm

Z groans. "What, Icy," She asks, and shakes her ruff.

**Roary** Tue Apr 16, 2013 9:21 pm

Ramiro watched his sister with a wide grin. He wagged his tail and waited to hear what she wanted to say.

**skysong** Tue Apr 16, 2013 11:21 pm

"Well I tried to follow Ramiro when he snuck off but lost sight of him and got lost then this cat spirit showed up claiming she was dad's mentor and she talked with me and showed me to our leader Jupiter then he took over and brought me back here!" she said quickly without pausing. She then took a deep breath. "And the best part is, Jupe said I could fly!" she said excitedly.

Angel perked her ears at the last part. "He just said that to make you feel better. You will never be able to fly higher than the trees with those tiny and delicate wings of yours."

**Moon** Tue Apr 16, 2013 11:43 pm

Z sighs, and opens her eyes, glaring in Angel's direction. "She will fly when she becomes older. We do not mock or put down our family," She growls, and stands up quickly. "The cat spirit was Sonia, your father and her were very close," She says softly to Icy.

**skysong** Wed Apr 17, 2013 1:24 am

Angle grumbled. "I was just telling it as it is..." she mumbled.

Icy stared at her sister before looking at her mother. "She told me. I wish she could be my mentor. Dad is such a great wolf, I want to be just like him." she smiled and wagged her tail.

Inga dropped down from the trees and padded over. He dropped a rabbit in front of his mate before looking at Icy. "Who is a great wolf?" he asked curiously.

**Moon** Wed Apr 17, 2013 2:15 am

"You, sweetheart," Z replies, and licks him lightly.

**Roary** Thu Apr 18, 2013 9:19 am

Ramiro flicked his ears as his dad came into the den. Cougars are better and much cooler. He poked his head outside the den and stared. "I want to go on a adventure. It's boring here." he blurted out, a smirk forming.

**skysong** Fri Apr 19, 2013 12:10 am

Inga smirked. "That I am." he chuckled and licked her in return. He glanced at Icy. "Ive been looking all over for you. A friend of mine appeared and told me what happened. You shouldn't wander off like that." he scolded before turning to Ramiro. "And you as well. Icy got lost because of you."

Icy looked down at her paws submissively. "Sorry dad... I won't do it again. I promise."
