Eleriss eyed Blitz with concern. "I see..." she said, her mind already formulating a plan. She did understand what Blitz meant by details - and indeed, she had caught a whiff of what was going on. She had all the proof she needed now, but looking at Blitz and hearing her reasoning...
Eleriss spent some time watching the other one, watching her every movement.

"You do realize what you are getting yourself into, do you?" she finally asked. Her voice had a serious tone to it now.
"There is no way for you to leave town without causing fuzz - they would notice quickly. Once we leave, we ain't coming back soon, that's for sure."

She glanced skywards.

"And... are you sure you want to leave him? And her, even?"
She lowered her gaze to Blitz again, tilting her head.

Slyth raised his eyebrows slightly as she revealed to him she was a gang dog. He supposed that with the way she managed to take him down to the ground twice before he realized it, he shouldn't have been surprised. But she didn't fit the profile for a dog involved in that brutal crowd. She looked too. . . nice.

Giggling at the surprised look on Slyth's face, 'Nothing' remembered something from the past that had been jarred by looking over him. Something about his appearance had stirred the distrubing memories. "You know, i've just noticed. You look alot like a dog that tried to join us awhile back. I think his name was Storm?"

Slyth frowned at her question. He could remember only too well what she was talking about. It had some really gruesome results. Including Blitz almost becoming a murderer. "Yea. That's my brother."

"I can remember that Blitz tested him. That didn't end too well though." She continued, frowning and her ears falling down once she recalled what had happened. She saw Slyth shudder and shook her head as well. "Im sorry about bringing that up. You just reminded me of him. I never got to know him. But i remember how he looked."

That had just been a really bad day for alot of dogs. Slyth, Blitz, Storm, and especially the dog that Blitz had nearly killed.

"I've been trying to forget that memory ever since it happened. But it kinda had a chain reaction that led to alot of different things on my end." Slyth frowned remembering with a slight twinge of pain and guilt when his sister, Saba, had tried to kill herself because she though he, Slyth, loved Blitz more than her. He wasn't about to tell 'Nothing' about that, but it was just a really rough time for him.

Nodding her head in understanding, the fae let a few seconds of silence hang between them.
Ever since becoming one of the gang dogs around town, and with the war between the gangs now reaching an almost chaotic level, she had to keep her guard up and senses on high alert at all times in case an unfriendly dog tried to surprise her. It'd become a habit of hers to sniff the air for new or forign scents frequently. During these few moments of silence between her and Slyth, she sniffed the wind and immediatly stood up. She had gotten wind of two scents. One was vaguely familiar. The other was completely unrecognizable. But she knew both of the two scents to be wolves.

Standing up with he fur standing as well and her ears perched up atop her head listening for the sounds of movement or voices, she did her best to maintain calm. But she felt that the atmosphere had just become hostile. So she felt a need to get Slyth away before any kind of attack occured.
So, leaning toward the friendly brute she placed her muzzle by his ear and breathed "Get out of here. Don't ask questions. Just go!."

Slyth wasn't quite sure what was going on, but from what he could gather from her urgent whisper in his ear and her reactions, something was wrong. He didn't want to get in the way if she knew what she was doing, so he made to do as he was told and started to run off. But he stopped short and looked back at her over his shoulder. He didn't want to leave her. He felt like they had already bonded a nice friendship. He was unsure if he left now whether they would see each other again. Opening his jaws he asked her one quick question that she interrupted before he could finish.
"Will we-"

"Yes. Eventually we will see each other again. Out paths will sooner or later. Probably sooner than later. It is a small town." She flashed him a friendly smile before nodding her head to let him know he should leave.

He got the message and left at a run. He didn't know where to go, all he knew was he wanted to get to a more friendly part of town. So, with this in mind, he started to head back home. Perhaps he'd run into his sister there.

With Slyth out of harms way, the fae closed her eyes in order to heighten her other senses. She managed to find their scent again and as silence settled down around her, she was able to understand voices. Both of which told her the two were female. Her nose and ears alone told her where the two were hiding. She could tell the scents were too close for comfort. But since they both were wolf scents, she didn't know what wolves would be doing getting involved in a dogs war. But she didn't consider this. All she cared about at the moment was that there were two wolves nearby, suspiciously hiding from view. Something wasn't right.
So, creeping low to the ground, she found the two were hiding behind a pair of trash cans. (Sorry if this is wrong. I tried to find what you two were behind in the previous posts but couldn't find an details that told.) She shook her head in a mix between annoyance and anger. "Want to tell me what you two are doing?" She asked as she padded around to see the two wolves.

For a moment, she stared at the two, waiting for a response. But her eyes were drawn to one of the wolves. She appeared to be younger.(I'd throw in an acctual description but i can never remember what Blitz looks like.) It took her a few minutes to recognize this fae, but finally a name came. "Blitz?"
It had been awhile since she'd last seen her, so she was quite surprised to just run into her at a time like this.

Eleriss shrugged.
"Follow your own heart. Unless you want me to, I won't get involved - though I'll keep an eye o-" she began saying, but interrupting herself when the other fae surprised them.
"What are you doing sneaking up on us like that?!" she hissed, baring her teeth at the dog.
She didn't really answer the question - she took a defensive maneuver right away. After all, she had been spying in the first place, making her own plans. But Blitz having been as honest as she was, that had changed. She couldn't admit her true intentions - that would make Blitz look bad as well.

As Blitz was recognized by this dog, she began ranting.
"Quite frankly, can't two canines have a friendly conversation uninterrupted these days?! My - how this world has gone to the dogs! ......... You get the picture... I find it incredibly rude! Have you not any manners, young lady?!"

She took on her usual half-arrogant façade.

(I need to draw a picture or her. But the exact design seems to keep changing on me. And I wasn't sure exactly what their history would be, so I just kind of left it open. We can work together to figure out how they treated each other back then and what the story is.)

The black and gray flecked dog had listened to the first portion of what Eleriss said, the words striking up her thoughts again and stirring them around into a soupy mess. When the fae jumped toward them, surprising the wolf, the hybrid was a little slow to respond, coming out of her fog just as the dog began to question them. Her mouth dropped open for about half a second, but when no words fell out, she closed it and Eleriss began her rant. For a moment, she looked like she'd gone into shock, but something about the rant broke through her silence and the hybrid did something she hadn't felt like doing in a while.

Her body, under the strain it was and not ready for such a surprise to occur caused her to laugh nervously. But she let the laugh continue just a little longer. Not because of the question, or because of the strange dog's sudden appearance, but because Eleriss had managed to get a short rant in. Of course, what she said was true. These days it seemed hard to just walk around Nome and not be found an interrupted at some point. But despite this, they both would have thought she was going mad if she kept chuckling, so she cleared her throat and quickly stammered, "Sorry, surprise doesn't seem to mix well with stress."

Then she realized that the fae had spoken her name. The thought startled her at first, though it really shouldn’t have. Dogs knew her in Nome, many more recently because of what she’d done to Dart. Her icy hues turned to the female and slowly she started to recognize her. It had been quite a long time, but the fae was indeed familiar.

“Dis?” She almost asked her what she was doing here, but then she remembered what part of town she was in and stopped herself. She hadn’t seen anything of the fae since the episode with Storm, and even then she’d only seen glimpses. Keeping a young pup out of trouble could be like that sometimes, though. And it had been even longer since they’d had a good chat, before she’d left to join the sled team. But now, with everything that had happened recently, she wondered what the fae thought of her. She hadn’t seen her reaction when the fight occurred and hadn’t really thought to look for her. What would be her reaction now?

Sorry the image is a bit choppy. It was colored in a hurry, though I spent forever working on the design. It still might change a little, but the flecking will stay and just little details with the gray might change. Here she is:

Grinning as the fae she recognized as Blitz addressed her by her name, Dis padded over to her and looked her over. She had changed. Not so much, but the evidence of stress was there. "I never thought i'd see you around here again. After what you did to Dart and all." She shook her head. "As unsafe as this part of town is, it's especially unsafe for you." The smile had vanished from her face. Instead, it was replaced with a look of concern.

The main change in Blitz's physique was the weight drop. She had a healthy look to her when she last saw her. Now. . . she was thinning out. "Wanna tell me where you've been?"

(sorry about the shortness. I'm having to listen to my parents yell at each other while i write this.)

would it be too late for me to join

Eleriss eyes Dis over, frowning a little after Blitz introduced the two.
"She looks quite skranky, I'd say." she said while examining the dog. "Healthy diets, much?"
Inside she was a bit concerned about this recent appearance. Eleriss didn't really know how much the fae had overheard of their conversation. She therefore decided to deliberately trail off the new arrival as much as possible.

Her eyes left Dis for a moment as she comitted herself to her thoughts, before they peered at Blitz.
"Privacy?"

Eleriss nodded understandingly.
"I'll be by that boat over there," she said, motioning toward the stranded boat a small walk from their location, "if you need me."

With that she walked off.
