Rin sitting close to ashi paying attention to everything, she had to keep him safe.He cant get hurt.She flicked her tail back and forth.Looking behind ashi "no one sneaking up, no one coming yet." she thought.She layed on the ground to be mostly un-noticed.

Aki turned his head, ears twitching forward and backward as the figure spoke. "Eh.." He turned toward the bush, leaping at it with his fangs barred. Launching down onto it he noticed that it was completely empty. Standing up to shake the leaves off his pelt he turned to Blue, Rae and Makoto. "Rae, Blue and Makoto! You three scan the area!" He barked, turning his head toward Blue again. "You set Tokimune down, I'll handle it." He said.
If he had to lift the dog he would do it, even with his puny size.

Rae nodded, She ran to the edge of the clearing, Watching as blue slid Tokimune to the ground and rushed to her side. Rae looked back at Makoto. "Alright, There is a wooded forest to our left, and hills everywhere else. He's most likley in the trees, so we'll flush him out there, Do not go off alone!" She yelled, Already dashing into the trees, Blue by her side.

Tokimune heard the words of the figure. He growled lowly. He felt as Blue slid him off his back. He was now laying on the ground. He winced a bit as he was first put down. He looked around him to see if he could see who had said those words. All he was was Blue run off to get by his sister. He felt helpless, he wanted to just spring up and help too but he knew he couldnt.

Rae smiled and spun on her heels, Her brown gray fur was gusted by the winds. She smiled maliciously at the wolf and smiled as her brother fell into step next to her. She lifted her head and guarded her throat, Smiling and waiting for her to make a move. "Ahaha." She laughed, mocking the dog. "Your severley outnumbered, Wolf. Stand down or be killed." she barked, her lips curling up over her pearly whites. The clouds seemed to darken once more, the rain drawing ever nearer.
Blue brushed his shoulder against his sisters, Growls of pure menace bubbled from deep within his chest as he glared towards one of Ashi's underlings. He smiled aswell, "Wheres your leader now? Too chicken shit to come out? Ahahaha. How pathetic!" he taunted, His tail waving through the air with a wag of mockery.

Instead of following Aki's orders, Makoto gave an irritated snarl and scuffled towards Kisaragi, leaping and pinning her down. "Can you shut up?! If you don't, there /will/ be wolves here!" he barked angrily, eyes narrowing. "So just...Go home."
He arose and stomped off, glancing at Aki before speaking. "I'll survey the area near that stream," he flicked an ear towards the direction of the rushing water. "Just call if you need me," and with that, he jumped into the bushes and was gone.
Makoto had second thoughts about confronting Kisaragi in such an unnecessary manner. As he padded, craning his neck to pick up any strange scents, Rin came into mind. With a jerk of his head, he realized that he had treated her like that too, once. He frowned a bit, tail drooping, and sighed. If he could re-do his previous actions, he admitted, he would. He then slinked past a few brambles to vent his anger out on hunting, while he was supposed to be scouting.
~~~~
Makoto stomped on a squirrel, and licked his lips at the smell of blood. Then, he heard him. A living, breathing wolf. He sniffed the ground quickly, and perked his ears. "A-Aki?" Immediately, he sped towards where he had left the dog, leaving his kill on the forest floor.
He skidded on the clearing, spotting the white wolf not too far from them. "Shit, what's going on here?!"

Aki turned his head as Makoto disobeyed orders. He let the large dog do whatever he pleased as he returned out of the area. Aki grabbed Tokimune by the neckfur, tugging on him as he dragged the dog away toward the Hotspring.
He felt himself giving out as they soon were half-way across to the hotspring. He let his fangs breach from Tokimune as he gave a long pant. "Your heavier than you look." He chuckled.

Tokimune watched as Makoto left the area. He turned his head to Aki, who then grabbed him by his neckfur. The pup was dragging him along to the hotsprings. He winced a little at first but then got used to it. He noticed Aki had gotten stronger. He could sense though that about half-way there the pup had stopped. "Your heavier than you look." Tokimune gave a slight chuckle. "Its all muscle pup." He said with a smile. "I dont think I can walk yet, but you can rest for a while here. I dont think anyone will bother us."

Makoto gave one last snarl at the threat and sped after Aki.
"What the hell was that?" he asked, not exactly knowing what they had just fled from. "I was hunting, and I thought I heard you in trouble."
He looked at his paws, and then where he had just ran. A fading track of bloody pawprints was barely visible. The squirrel he had killed by pushing it against the ground with his paws had made a mess, and he was frustrated when the preyblood got onto his fur. "Damnit," he sighed, "Well, I can wash it off in the Hotspring. We're not too far, let's go!" He walked a few more paces, and arrived at a misty place.
Craters of hot water and ant-hill-like structures towered above them, some were even about or below their size. "Wow," Makoto whispered, sniffing the air. "Ugh, it smells weird here," he added with a grunt. "Oh well...Aki! Come see!" he called.

He glared at Rin. He had no idea why she felt she had to keep an eye out, why her tail did that before.. or why the hell she had even tagged along. He could keep himself alive. He could hold his own. Now, she went off on her own, following one of the hostile dogs, she seemed like she didn't think at times. He would've proffered not to open his maw, but he also would prefer to keep his new advisor alive in this circumstance. "Rin, get back here!!! I came only to taunt them, I don't want to start a conflict just yet, it'd be better to know more about their strengths,weaknesses and who is what rank. Get back here and lets go!! Getting wounded in a conflict that has no purpose is useless for my army's goals. " He ducked down by a nearby tree, he was no coward, but he did honestly feel getting hurt for no reason had no purpose or place in his plan for domination of Ohu, and then Japan, so if hide he must, hide he will.

Rins ears perked as she heard ashi "Rin, get back here!!! I came only to taunt them, I don't want to start a conflict just yet, it'd be better to know more about their strengths,weaknesses and who is what rank. Get back here and lets go!! Getting wounded in a conflict that has no purpose is useless for my army's goals. " She then jumped up to ahigher rock, jumped into a tree and jumped down "Believe me ashi, i spied on aki,and tokimune before, they are very powerful" She barked "I just dont want our leader to be injured"

Aki gave a huffled sigh as he turned toward Tokimune. The dog had first spoken to him in a long while since he had been attacked. "Heh. If your shure." He said calmly his head turning as Makoto appeared suddenly. "Oh there you are." He said, dark blue eyes turning toward the large dog. He nodded looking back toward Tokimune as he grabbed the dog's neckfur again.
"Alright! I'm coming!" He barked, pulling the dog faster than he had before. Once he had arrived to the misty place, his noise plugged him from the sulfur in the air. He looked around as he pulled the Dog toward the pool of water where Makoto was. "Ugh. It smells funny.." He barked to Makoto as his jaws parted from Tokimune's scruff.

"I know...I never knew that Hotsprings smell like this," he coughed, swinging his head around. Makoto gasped. "A-Aki! I'm sorry, do you need help?" he asked, pointing at Tokimune with his muzzle. "I should've offered sooner, I'm sorry," he said hastily.
Aki was still small. He looked somewhat stronger than when he first met him, but he was just about the same size. Lifting Tokimune - or, dragging him - would've taken a lot of energy. The black and white dog padded closer and glanced around. It felt odd here, as if the steam and the mist represented presences, and made it stuffy and uncomfortable. He found a small puddle and dipped the paw with blood in it.
He tingled as his paw made contact with the water. It was awfully hot, and he almost jerked back. After rubbing the dried blood off with his other paw, he took both out, and gave them both a lick. He then turned to Aki for his reply.
