Fate had dictated what her purpose was in life. She was built to become a savage creature and keep both prey and predator balanced. It was a task that so very few accepted and even so fewer was it something all could understand. Even though she was made a female and cursed with the burden of delivering new lives it was not her intention to become a Mother. Being close to her imprint was difficult to overcome and since both were naturally attuned to their instincts it was only natural the two would become one. The parasites that grew within her would be the final souls brought into this world by two servants of Death. Tick Tock could not fight Fate and what she wanted and she accepted this task without question, just as she accepted the first task she was given. Weakness was something she could not ever tolerate and it was interesting to note that she had not attacked Anima for being so very close to her. Dark sapphire eyes remained locked on the one-eyed wolf looking over the other female carefully looking to see if there were any other unsatisfactory flaws. Finding nothing else those dark gems flicked towards the white wolf noticing that he looked uncannily like Heyel. Half torn ear twitched as she listened to Anima voice out their reasoning and as the male confirmed it her other ear twitched at a familiar recognition. His common tongue held a thick Latin accent and since he looked so similar to Heyel then she had no doubt to think that he would actually speak Latin. Softly she spoke with a songful tone as Latin poured easily from her lips.
“You look like Heyel.”
Vultus amo vos Heyel.”
It was not an accusation rather a factual statement. It was not a good thing nor was it a bad thing that he looked like the dead wolf. She and Heyel were not the best of friends, but they understood one another. It was true that she accepted wolves that were different and it was not difficult to see just what made these two different from their peers. Seeing how they stood next to one another, reading each other’s cue, was mildly interesting. They worked as a team and if they could be like that witch each other then they could work just as well together with the strong pack that lived within the fields. Knowing that Anima did not have any troubling flaws would allow Tick Tock to give the female a chance to thrive within the fields...so long as no other type of weakness pops up. With a firm nod she speaks firmly letting her two newest members here they were to be accepted.
“Both of you are welcomed to join, but I ask you do not do anything that would in any shape or form threaten the pack...or yourselves. Tobias and I protect those that live here so should you be in trouble...call.”
When Nakato came to join her ranks she easily brushed her shoulder into the girl’s side spreading her scent on the wolf. Nakato was a wolf that understood her place. The two wolves before her did not smell of another pack nor did they appear the type that would be so very accepting of touch. It was important to Tick Tock that she spread her scent on them so not only would they get a traditional introduction to the pack, but so that her counterpart would not attack them. These winter months with her belly full he was awfully protective more so than usual and she did not want her newest members to be attacked. Slowly her head would turn from one to the other as she inquired permission. She may be an Alpha, but she would not overstep her own members – it was not her way to be like that – not when they willingly chose to follow her and live here.
“May I touch you both...so that Tobias is aware you both belong here?”
