Near the western edge of the Alleys, where the buildings and homes are in more dilapidated conditions, a three-story factory stands abandoned. All the windows are reinforced by steel bars, allowing creatures no larger than the average house cat to pass through. A single, heavy-steal door and a large hole in the western side of the building are the only two ways for larger creatures to enter the factory.
The first floor is cluttered with old tin boxes, pipes, tools, and miscellaneous debris. Heavy rainfall can lead to flooding on this level. The second story has several open walkways that offer a direct view of the first floor. Many rooms can be found as well, with several mattresses scattered about from previous human residence that had no other place to call home. The third floor is much the same as the second, except it has no walkways, and it has more rooms. It also leads to the flat rooftop.

This area is owned by the Shadow Lurkers Pack.

Southern Comfort

Dixie had heard the gun shots and the fight that had broken out. She had sat nearby with her pups as her pack members had chased away the human and kept the stray from entering any further. She had seen it all without anyone being the wiser. Yet, she had not stepped in because the shots had awoken the pups and she didn’t want to take them into any potentially dangerous situations. So, she had calmed them and gotten them back to sleep. By this time the fight was over and she could hear Argolis speaking to the group. This was the time that she had chosen to approach the whole situation.

Argolis would probably kill her for leaving the pups asleep a room away to go and help with the situation. But from the sound of it, the whole thing could turn volatile once again at any second. She could hear the dangerous edge in her mate’s tones and she knew that could be bad. Swift movement was made to her mate’s side as she looked to the ebony half breed. In honesty, she was even worse off, having no wolf blood in her at all. Instead she was a full blooded boxer. She probably held nothing in the way of strength of any of those here, but she had a kind heart. After everyone had spoken their peace she spoke to Argolis.

Argolis, if you wouldn’t mind may I have a word with you? He would be stupid to try anything with the rest of the pack here.

And to that she moved a few steps away. She then waited to see if Argolis would follow her. She did not want to pass judgment when she could tell that he did not trust the male. Ultimately it would be Argolis’ decision but she wanted to give the male a chance. If Argolis followed she would then speak to him in hushed tones.

Couldn’t we take him prisoner until we check around to see if he is sent by our enemies? If he was not then eventually in time we could give him the chance to either leave or join our ranks. I’m sure even you have noted his strength. He took on quite a few of our pack and survived. I think that having him on our side would be beneficial if he is not a spy. If we find proof that he is then he can be taken care of. Of course, this will mean precautions must be taken. We will have to keep him away from the rest of the pack and guarded at all times.

She had obviously thought this through thoroughly. Maybe the male was not the most intelligent, but he was strong enough to hold his own. And if they gave him a second chance at life then maybe he would be thankful and would pledge his loyalty to them. The Boxer girl had spoken her idea and now it would be up to Argolis to choose whether to go with her suggestion or whether to just take out the possible spy now. At least she will have tried to save him, because there was still a possibility it had started out innocently. She wouldn’t have to keep herself up at night because she hadn’t tried to find out the truth.
