aurora borealis- noun plural: An aurora that occurs in northern regions of the earth. Also called northern lights.
In the middle of a dense forest of coniferous trees lies the Aurora Borealis pack, its name coming from its location. At certain times of the year, the northern lights appear, dancing almost magically in the sky. A narrow trail leads you through the close evergreens. Giving into temptation, you begin moving your paws. By venturing into this territory, you are venturing into a land belonging to a pair of feared leaders. You have heard rumors of them...but you decide to take your chances and hope that the tales of blood and death are merely fabricated stories to scare wolves.
You have walked nearly five minutes before you realize the sound of paws stepping somewhere from behind. Deciding that you've made a mistake, you quickly turn around, but find that you cannot go any further. Standing before you is one of the mighty kings you've heard of. His blood red pelt clings over perfectly toned bands of muscle. But that isn't what causes such fear in your veins. One of his amber eyes has a horrid, bleeding scar across it, and his good eye seems to stare right through you. His face is expressionless, giving off none of his intentions. You cower away as his jaws part.
"I'm Hell Demon."
His voice was deep and cut through the air like a hot knife through butter. Right where he left off, another voice picks up from behind you. You whirl around and find yourself facing another male with steely muscles beneath his pelt, which seems to consist of every shade of brown. He had startled you, and you're amazed how you hadn't at all detected his approach.
"And I am Ghost...we're the alphas of Aurora Borealis."
His deep voice was laced thickly with a Native American accent. His own golden eyes are directing a harsh glare your way. Now you're caught in the middle...your breathing has become heavy in your panic and you're not sure which to face.
"You've foolishly trespassed into our territory. You face the one called Hell Demon's whose voice is once more addressing you. Get out, or become a corpse along our border."
It's obvious they mean business. So now it's up to you...take your chances and stay, or heed their warning and waste no time getting out with your life.

Only You Are the Life Among the Dead  |
_________________________________________________________________________ Flashes of red ran across her mind as the small femme whimpered in her den, plagued by nightmares of what had happened not too long ago. She had killed something…a wolf…not prey…another wolf. And she had helped her mother kill another wolf. And watched as yet another wolf was blinded in front of her. There had been so much blood, all over the ground, all over the other wolves, all over her. She still remembered what it felt like when Hellene had killed thee wolf in front of her and his blood had been splattered across her white form. It was the first time she had seen another wolf die. Even the monster that had kidnapped her not been killed, but all these strangers had been. And she had done the killing against one of them. She was no better than the monsters in her nightmares. Khaleesi had hid away from her mother and brother after the fight, not willing to show her face to anyone with how ashamed she felt for what she had done. Really what she wanted to do was curl up in a ball and never leave this den, to just die here. She no longer felt like she deserved to live after what she had done and helped do. Surely she could have done something else instead of killing another wolf?! There were now nine dead corpses at Aurora’s borders because of her and the other lupines that had assisted in the fight. And two that had died had been allies from Saw Tooth, one of them her friend Daenerys. The young femme had never known someone that had died before and the pain of it tore through her, making her feel empty and broken inside. What was the point of her living when so many were dead? The ess was torn out of her sorrowful trance by one of the only beings she still cared about, her mother. Hellene’s vocals rang through the trees, demanding any that were injured to come to her to be healed. She remembered some advice that Hellene had taught her, how being a healer was the most important thing now, and that no matter what or who was injured she needed to be there. That was the only thing that got her out of the den and heading towards other wolves. Her shoulder still ached terribly, but it had not been a terribly deep wound and had already stopped bleeding, but it would take time for her tissue and muscle to heal, so she limped along slowly, not wanting to put too much strain on her injured stilt. Khaleesi also realized that she had not attempted to do any healing on her own, too consumed with grief from what had happened to think about her own injuries. Once Khaleesi reached the group she saw her mother of course, with Sebring, Kalgalath, Magic and Chenzii, gathered around her. The white femme ignored the other four for now, feeling like a helpless pup again and just wanting the comfort that only her mother could bring. She limped over the Hellene, burying her head into the comforting and familiar scent of Hellene’s pelt. She waited until her mother spoke to her or the group before separating herself from the other femme, afraid to look anyone else in the eye.
