I WANNA BE WILD [shadow=black,left,300]{ I wanna set free } [/shadow]I WANNA GO CRAZY, THAT'S JUST ME!
Remy's paws crunched through the land, his body traveling fast. Everytime his paws hit the ground he pushed off of it, soaring through the air. Remy slowed down after awhile, his ears sticking straight up. Remy wanted to meet someone, well he was looking for a mate before the season passed. Remy threw his nose up towards the sky, letting out a strong and low howl. The howl is a noise his father used to make when calling for his mate; Remy's mother. Remy didn't care if the wolf he met was in his pack or not, he just wanted someone to talk to; someone to adventure with.
Remy continued walking, but walking slowly. Brushing his tail against trees to leave his scent. He sighed and stretched out against the snowy forest floor. Everytime he released his breath into the air, white puffs of smoke danced off until they were no longer visible. Remy heard a crackling noise in the distance. It was a noise that would come from someone snapping a stick. Remy let out a deep breath and sneaked towards the direction in which the noise came. He pulled his lips over his pointed teeth, to make himself look more intimidating.

Nimbus Is there a place left there for me Somewhere that I belong Or will I always live this way? Nimbus tossed her head, rather dramatically to the untrained eye but to Nimbus it was a sign of how high her frustration was running. Nimbus was a creature of grace, of stillness only a wolf could achieve. She could keep her entire body frozen still for hours on end with only the movement of her eyes giving her away and even when she wasn't hunting ever move she made was of careful calculation. When she moved carelessly it meant she was beyond her normal realm of thinking. in this case it was the frustration and anger she held for the long dead body of the rabbit at her paws.
The weak little thing was her evening meal but it did not go down with out a fight, namely leaving her with a bleeding gash on her muzzle. Nimbus couldn't help but give the little mammal some credit for its determination but going without food for two days would make any wolf loose their cool. The maned wolf huffed as she rubbed a paw over the gash on her muzzle, trying to rid herself of the stinging sensation. Oh well. She thought tiredly and picked up her meal to take it to a more secure place. Trotting quickly thought the snowy forest seemed to restore Nimbus of some of her usual cool handedness and gave her a feeling of inner peace. Momentarily she closed her eyes and let her large ears flicked back and forth to take in the sounds of the lively forest. The female jumped when she accidentally stepped on a stick and cracked it cleanly in half. Her eyes snapped open once more as she paused to look down at the offending stick. Shrugging to herself mentally and making a silent vow to be more quiet, Nimbus managed to get a few steps further before she heard someone coming up behind her. Reacting on instinct, the female dropped her prey to the ground (making sure to place on paw on it that clearly gave the message of "Mine") and turned to face the other with a growl waiting to slip from her throat.
Nimbus was pleasantly surprised when she saw it was Remy, the Alpha of her pack. Nimbus' ear shot back in a clear show of her surprise before she lowered her head to the Alpha. "Hello Remy. I'm sorry if I disturbed your hunt." She said politely.

When Remy met the 'intruder' face to face, he realized very well and clear that this wolf was no intruder, this wolf was not to inflict harm upon Remy. This wolf was Nimbus. Remy quickly pulled in his teeth, making himself look more friendly and calm. "I'm sorry I thought you were a loner." Remy said accepting her hello. Remy brushed his pelt against her, "Good evening darling, Hunting are we?" he smiled.
Remy always was shocked at this beautiful maned wolf. No matter how many times he saw her, he had to take a few deep breaths to control himself. He was sure that if he didn't keep hold of himself he would fall in immediate love with her.
"Don't worry, your not intruding" Remy said insuring Nimbus. He looked down at her latest kill, a weak rabbit. He then looked up at her muzzle where he smelled blood "Your hurt? Are you okay?" Remy barked with concern. He knew the scratch probably wasn't too deep but rabbit's these days could get pretty fussy.
Remy sat down on the snowflake covered forest floor. He wouldn't mind talking to Nimbus for awhile, after all she was the new addition to Agônia. Remy let out a little huffing noise as he sat down.

Nimbus Is there a place left there for me Somewhere that I belong Or will I always live this way?
Nimbus couldn't help but chuckle at the slightly flustered male. She stepped forward with her long legs and rubbed her own pelt against Remy's, not without inhaling his scent. She quickly backed off, feeling slightly embarrassed at her behaviour and quickly straightened herself to looked the Alpha in the eye. "There is no need to be sorry. It was my fault for not announcing my presence first." She barked back, letting the apology slide off her fur like water.
The female flicked her white tipped tail at the rabbit a few paces behind her. "I caught a rather rebellious rabbit." She glared her green eyes at the rabbit in question, still angry at the thing for scratching her.
She blinked in surprise at his words and just smiled at him gently. "No need to worry." She said, shaking her head to show she was fine. "I'll just clean it in a river tomorrow." Nimbus gave Remy a grin. "Unless you want to help me clean it?"
The maned wolf trotted over to the rabbit and snagged it in her jaws before walking back to Remy and placing the rabbit in front of him. "Do you want to share with me?" She asked, giving him a rather shy smile.
Notes: They are rather cute together, I have to admit.

Remy smiled when he realized Nimbus wanted to spend time with him too. She offered him a chance to be with her for awhile, all Remy had to do was jump at the chance. "I wouldn't mind helping you get that cleaned" he said looking at her scratch. He looked down at the rabbit as she dropped it in front of him, offering to share. "Darling you'll die of starvation if you don't be picky about sharing food. Then what would I do without you?" he asked this jokingly and seriously at the same time.
Remy took a closer look at the rabbit. It was skinny and scrawny from lack of food in this bitter winter. Remy waited for Nimbus to eat. Watching her movements, her careful, precise movements. He watched her pointed to puncture through the flesh of the rabbit. Remy could see the blood slowly dripping out of the rabbit's neck. Blood spilled onto Nimbus's lips making them look like they were covered in lipstick.
Soon Nimbus was done with her small feast, and he started walking with her, walking close to her down to the river. He didn't talk at first he almost wanted her to be the first one to talk. Remy couldn't help but think about Nimbus, about how she walked, how she looked, how she ate, how she hunted, even how she talked. Remy wondered if it was crazy of him to think about Nimbus so much. But then again love is blind, no one can help it.

Nimbus Is there a place left there for me Somewhere that I belong Or will I always live this way?
Nimbus' lips twitched at Remy's words, his eagerness was rather endearing if you asked her. Nimbus had been in Agônia for two years along with her other and in all that time she hadn't really interacted with Remy beyond the norm in a pack. With the first year of Nimbus' life in the pack was spent avoiding the previous Alpha as much as possible and the second year Remy was very busy with running the pack as the new Alpha it didn't surprise the female at all that they had no time to really talk until now. Thinking back on the last year, Nimbus nearly missed Remy's next words. Snapping herself to attention Nimbus laughed at Remy's little quip but nodded her head solemnly to show her understanding of the underlined meaning.
She flicked her tail one before placing a paw on the rabbit to steady it before starting to strip the rabbit of its meat. Nimbus didn't realize how ravenous she really was until the first taste of blood entered her mouth. She wanted to gulp down the rabbit quickly but restrained herself to eat the rabbit with some dignity. Despite her careful pace, Nimbus still got some blood on her fur and quickly decided the river was a great idea at the moment.
It wasn't until they started walking together that Nimbus realized he was watching her so intently. She started to feel the first creeping flush of embarrassment and quickly spun her mind for a topic of conversation. Oh wow, I'm really, really bad at this. She thought but made sure to keep her flustered feeling from showing in her body language. She looked up at the other male, just realizing how much taller and bigger he was than her. "Did you know that rabbits can purr?" Stupid, stupid, stupid. She really wished for once she could keep her mouth shut.
Notes: Oh Nim, you're so cute and awkward!

Remy continued to wait for her to talk. They walked faster, maybe even sprinted. He listened as she finally did speak. What was that? Did she really just say rabbits could purr? "Why uh no, I guess I never thought about it." Remy tried to keep his cool, and he did. In his mind he was exploding with laughter, not because he thought Nimbus was a dork, but because he enjoyed humorous wolves. Remy's ears pricked up as he heard the trickling of the river. Since spring was gaining up on winter, warmth has managed to unfreeze parts of the river.
"Looks like we're just about here!" Remy said. As they got closer Remy was sure this was it. He leaped through a few bushes, into the clearing by the River. Remy sat by the edge of the river bed, waiting for Nimbus to pick her place to sit. While Nimbus finished making her way through the bushes Remy lowered his head towards the water, lapping up some of the freezing water. A thought passed through Remy's head, how would Nimbus wash up without freezing to death? Remy lifted up his head from the river, looking at Nimbus who was now next to him. "Okay so how are we gonna do this?" he asked her, knowing she probably knew the river was freezing cold too.

Yup, officially the stupidest thing I've ever had the misfortune to say. She thought with irritation starting to creep into her mind. She was eternally thankful when the two came across the river they had been searching for. Leaping over the bushes with grace Nimbus paused to take in the river. It was a nice clear blue with chunks of ice floating slowly down stream. Carefully Nimbus dipped a paw into the water to test how cold it was and quickly retracted her paw. "Its freezing!" She exclaimed needlessly. Flicking her big ears thoughtfully, Nimbus sucked in a big breath before easing herself into the river so the water only went up slightly past her paws.
"I think it would be best if we took a leaf out of a cat's book." She said as she brought one of her water soaked paws to her muzzle. She rubbed the water over her cut gently before moving on to the rest of her pelt. "See how the ice is this almost misty colour? That's because the ice was created quickly, so air was trapped in the ice as well." She explained mindlessly. She remembered her mother telling her the same thing when she was a pup.

Remy just watched as Nimbus cleaned herself. He was surprised at her courage, how she was able to handle such a freezing temperature against her body. As she spoke he tried to pay attention, but he was rather hypnotized by her beauty. Not able to snap out of it, Remy just nodded in response to Nimbus's comment. "You know, your really..." Remy's voice trailed off.
Remy shook his head before the last word he was going to say could escape his muzzle. He looked down at his paws. Did I really just do that? Did I really almost tell her what I think about her? How I think shes beautiful? He had his own panic attack in his head as he told himself how stupid he was being. Remy felt foolish, how could a wolf like Nimbus ever have feelings for Remy? Remy lifted his head up from looking down at his paws, he turned his gaze back to Nimbus who was washing parts of her pelt that had blood on it. He wondered how she could be taking her sweet time in the freezing river, when any other wolf would yelp, and jump out. Soon Nimbus was finished and she began the climb out of the River "You must be cold. Do you want to find some shelter?" he asked thoughtfully.

Nimbus Is there a place left there for me Somewhere that I belong Or will I always live this way?
Nimbus paused with a paw hanging in the air half way to her shoulder and looked at Remy who was staring at her again. She flickered her ears and turned more fully to look at the male. Nimbus slowly lowered her paw as she looked deeply into Remy's silver eyes. They look so... She trailed off in thought, not noticing she was staring until Remy shook his head. Nimbus blinked her eyes before turning away from Remy. She felt herself flush once again and quickly dunked her muzzle into the cold water of the river. Her thoughts as well as her fur cleaned once more she stepped from the river and shook herself vigorously.
"I think it would be best if we went back to the pack. Someone must be wondering where we are by now." She replied simply, looking off into the distance where she thought the pack was. Nimbus felt as if a thorn had wedged itself into her heart at her own words. She didn't want to go back to the pack just yet. The time she had spent with Remy was relaxing and down right rejuvenating. She flicked some water off her tail and stepped closer to Remy, hoping he would help her keep out the cold that was already to set into her flesh. The only thing urging her to go back to the pack was the thought of her mother. Ever since they came to the Agonia pack it had almost become an obsessive compulsion to check on her mother. She had never been the same since they came to the pack, but neither regretted it.

Remy listened as Nimbus suggested they go back to the pack. Remy didn't want to go back to the pack yet, not after him and Nimbus had finally talked face to face. Remy searched his mind frantically to keep them out in the woods. "The pack's camp is rather far away, and night is closing in on us meaning it's gonna get very cold very quickly. I think it would be best if we find shelter nearby." Remy confidently spoke to prevent her from noticing that he wanted to stay with her longer.
Remy awaited her as she walked out of the water. He wrapped his tail around her to provide warmth. Nimbus was trembling deep in her bones, they would need to find shelter quick. Remy led Nimbus quickly through the forest, the forest he knew his way around even in the dark. Remy wrapped his tail tighter around her waist as she began to shake more. He led her to a very wide oak tree, where the middle of it was hollow. The oak tree was strangely warm inside. Remy led Nimbus into the tree, giving her a boost up into it. Remy pulled her gently into the corner of the great oak. "Better?" he asked her with a smirk on his muzzle.

Nimbus looked at Remy and felt all the worries about her mother melt away. "You're right. Let's go." She barked, moving further into the male's warmth for a moment before breaking away and following Remy's lead back into the forest. They walked in a comfortable silence and Nimbus was acutely aware of how close Remy was holing her. His warmth soaked into her pelt like rays from the sun and made her feel infinitely. Yet Nimbus could still feel the water clinging to her pelt turn to ice and turning the ends of her fur a crystallized white colour.
As they made their way into the oak, Nimbus paused letting Remy curl himself within the confines of the tree. She briefly wondered if they would both fit before she carefully made her way in. Making sure not to step on Remy, she had to practically drape herself over the other wolf in order to fit. She squirmed slightly, trying to get comfortable but it just made her slip and her muzzle fell under Remy's chin. "S-sorry." She mumbled, finally finding a position and curling up in a ball at Remy's side, tucking a paw over her muzzle.
Nimbus laughed quietly, looking up at Remy from her position. "Much better thank you. You have been very kind to me today Remy." She said, turning her eyes away shyly.
