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.

It felt as if every muscle and bone in the femme’s body ached, even though it was only her front limb that had visible wounds. But the pain in that limb, shoulder, and surrounding area had become so intense that she knew something was broken and that the pain would not lessen until she got it fixed by Hellene. Luckily she did not need to wait long until she heard the call from the pack’s healer, and she went as quickly as she could to the scene. The pain had grown so much that she was no longer putting any weight on the limb at all, trying to just keep the injured stilt held tight to her bodice so as not to agitate it anymore. She was happy to see that her dearest friend, Magic, was already at the gathering when she arrived, and she immediately limped over to the other black pelted fae. She was panting from the exertion of her walk and she leaned onto her friend for support, knowing she wouldn’t mind. When Magic’s vocals reached her audettes a whine escaped her throat, and she reached out to nuzzle her friend’s neck in gratitude for the help. Chenzii remained unusually quiet, the pain in her limb taking all of attention, but she listened in as Kalgalath told Magic about his son having his first pups. She gave Kal a warm smile at the news, happy that there was still some happiness coming into the world despite all the death that had been around Aurora’s borders recently. The raven colored fae’s attention was brought to Hellene as she approached her, indicating for her to lay on the ground. With a wince of pain, she lowered her form to the ground, making sure to keep her injured limb away from the ground, and stretching it out as best she could for the healer to inspect. She gritted her teeth as Hellene’s skilled nose began to palpate her limb, and it took all of her effort to stifle the whines and growls that wanted to escape her throat. She listened carefully to what Hellene’s instructions were for the future, and she nodded in understanding. ”Thank you, Hellene.” Chenzii’s yellow orbs then caught the approach of a white female, and knew it had to be Khaleesi. The young femme went to directly to her mother, burying her face into Hellene’s grey pelt, and Chenzii’s heart went out to the younger femme. She was still so young, and to have seen so much blood in death, must be awful. But if anyone could help her feel better, it would be Hellene, so Khaleesi at least was in the right place. She didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but the pair were not whispering and her audettes caught the words exchanged between the two. "Hello, my love. Are you quite alright?" A whine escaped Khaleesi’s throat as she finally lifted her head from Hellene’s fur, ”Can I stay with you mom?” Chenzii thought of how she would feel if this had happened with Vita or Mortem, and she admired Hellene for her courage at helping her daughter through this time. Khaleesi’s ears seemed to perk up as Hellene addressed the group, giving them each instructions on what herbs they would need and what steps needed to be taken to heal. The black femme stayed on the ground until Hellene brought her the herbs that she needed, Khaleesi’s form at her heals as she carefully watched each and every herb that her mother handed out to the group. The black femme got to her paws, reaching down to take the herbs in her mouth with a smile to Hellene and Khaleesi when Magic approached her. “You call for me if you need something, love. I will always always come, so don’t be hesitant to ask.” She reached her head over to Magic, giving her neck a grateful lick of affection. ”Thank you, my friend. The same goes to you and Tarly as well.” The pair of ebony friends each took their herbs without complaint, even the bitter ones and then departed ways. Chenzii turned to Kalgalath and Sebring before heading out though, giving them each a pained smile. ”I’m glad to see you two will recover. It was nice to see you both as always.” She dipped her head in farewell to them each in turn before heading out through the trees. "We were never meant to last," She whispers.
