Nuka looked over "Well he wants to see you and now, he said it was very, very imporant." He turned and began to walk back towards the sled team camp, he wanted to know what would happen and he knew Mishka's owner wouldn't be gone for much longer, two hours at the least. And the last thing they needed was a human..

Mishka shrugged "I have no idea." She said blankly as she laid down adn rested her head on her paws, she wondered why Ian and Nuka had gone and not Ivy and Kishma. Were they leaving them here, or were they really going to return?

Echo laid down to, almost trying to copy Mishka since She knew Tony had a crush on her, it was obvious, the way he looked at her alone screamed it. Echo was amazingly jelous of the white and gray husky, her perfect markings, her uniqe name, and her amazing personality that could light a room instantly, and teh fact that she could dare to be different and not care rather or not anyone cared.

Inuit looked over nersously at Kishma, he wanted to calm her down but he had no clue how since he had no idea what was even wrong with her to begin with. "Kishma, why don't you come sit down?" He asked kindly, a smile on his face.

Moth sighed, reluctant to go with the young wolves that would lead her to her past. She looked about her for some form of excuse, but no ideas came to mind. Nuka was already leaving, and Ian was watching Moth expectantly. She knew that she had no choice but to go. "Alright, alright. I'll come," she said, trotting with Ian to catch up with Nuka.

Ian tried to smile at Moth's confirmation that she would come with them, but he was too worried and full of thoughts to make a believable smile appear. He just settled with walking with Moth, wanting to encourage her somehow. The last thing he wanted was for Moth to decide to turn back, forcing Ian and Nuka to face Butch, and worse, Mishka and Kishma, alone.

Tony shrugged, laying down as Echo and Mishka did. He wasn't really paying attention to how Echo copied Mishka's movements mostly because he wasn't paying as close attention to Mishka as he normally did. He blamed it on the distraction the wolves were making, but somehow he felt that the real distraction was much closer. Maybe even laying right next to him. Tony didn't know how to cope with that new thought because he had always been after Mishka. What would he do if Mishka was no longer the most important female to him? He sighed in frustration, but those around him had no idea exactly what was making him frustrated. "I just hope those two get back here soon before our musher shows up," he said, another new thought occuring to him.

Kishma slowed her pacing and eyed the spot next to Inuit where she could easily sit down. But her mind was foggy with all the thinking it was doing and her muscles were tingling with nerves. It was apparant that walking off these nerves wasn't working, so Kishma gavr up and nodded at Inuit. She came over and sat down beside him, almost immediately sinking to the ground. She placed her head on her paws in almost the exact same manner as Mishka, thought Kishma had not even looked over at the husky since she went over to Tony.

Inuit looked shyly as Kishma laid down next to him, his heart beating a little it faster. "They are almost here, I see them." He said suddely as the three wolves came into veiw.

Butch jumped up and barked towards the three figures that were edging foward. Even though he and Moth weren't mates anymore he still loved her dearly, and missed her.

Mishka looked up, her eyes catching sight of the three figures, they were almost to the camp and she could just make out their faces.

Echo looked over towards Tony for a breif second and felt butterflies explode from just the veiw of him. I'm insane, I'm mad. She thought breifly before she realized all the comotion.

Nuka climbed up a snow covered hill and stretched his neck to see over it. He saw the sled team laying down together under the little roof with no walls, his heart beat faster in excitment to see what would happen next as they came even closer, he could make out all of the faces perfectly now. "Welcome to the Sled Team's home." He smirked slightly at Moth, she made him uncomfortable, he didn't know why.

Kishma jumped up when she saw Ian and Nuka coming with Moth. She wasn't sure yet if she wanted her mother here or not, but at least now she would find out what was happening.

Tony glanced at the wolves as they came inside the fence. He eyes Butch's odd behavior, but kept the comments to himself.

Ivy, seeing Kishma refuse to go to her mother, trotted up to Moth and said, "So are you going to tell us what's going on here? Butch over there has been keeping it to himself."

Moth looked around, barely hearing Ivy speak. Her eyes were glued to Butch. She had spent all these years convincing herself she was over him, but seeing him again caused her heart to flutter. She looked to the ground to slow it down.

Ian walked a bit away from Moth as the others crowded around her. He wasn't as curious as the other because he already knew what would be said. For the most part, anyways.

Butch looked at Moth "I need to tell them Moth, but I don't know if you think we should." He explained, his eyes being glued to her.

Mishka looked nervously from side to side "Who are them and no matter what father, you're telling us." She said sternly, her eyes tense. Butch growled under his breath but returned to watching Moth.

Ooc:// What did Mishka say? I think there's a typo...

(Sorry, I fixed it)

"What is he talking about, Mom?" Kishma asked as she came up beside Mishka. She looked between Butch and Moth, wanting an answer no matter who gave it.

Moth sighed, taking her eyes away from her old mate and her daughter. She glanced at Butch without really looking striaght at him. "I agree. It has to be now." She stared at her paws again, reluctant to begin. "We knew this day would come," she said mostly to herself although it was directed at Butch.

Butch looked over at Mishka and Kishma "Moth and I are your parents...Your sisters." His voice was tense, as was his jaw.
Mishka jumped up udruptly, her chest heaving from shock "I-I..I'm part wolf? Dad your lying!" She yelled, its not that she was ashamed of what she was, she was upset that her father had never told her.

Kishma was shocked into silence. "What is he talking about, Mom?" she asked, turning on Moth. She was so surprised she didn't know if she believed it or not. She wasn't even sure if she heard correctly. "I don't understand."

Moth couldn't look at her daughter as she said, "He's telling the truth. We used to be mates. And we had the two of you. But we knew there was no way for us to stay together, so we split you two up in hopes that you would never have to know the truth."

"But now you do..." Butch finished "A husky and a wolf could never be together, we tried to do what was best for you two." He sighed heavily as he began to regret his decision of splitting the family apart.

Mishka sighed "Well...I'm not ashamed of being a wolf/dog...mom." She choked out the last word, it felt so foreign on her tongue. She looked up at her mother and hugged her tightly, the feeling of having a mom was overwhelming, the fact that she was alive and staring at her in the flesh was amazing.

bumper....

Moth was surprised by Mishka's warm welcome. She had expected yelling and accustions, not a hug. Moth shook away the surprise and hugged her daughter back, glad to have Mishka so near again.

Kishma looked to the ground, refusing to met Butch's eyes. If he thought that he was getting some sort of teary welcome, he thought wrong. Just the sight of her mother's happiness to see Mishka again cause Kishma to think that it had been Butch's idea to split the family and the whole crisis was his fault. She huffed and turned away, running out of the gate and back into thr woods.

"Kishma!" Ivy shouted after her friend, running after her for only a few steps before stopping at the gate and looking back over her shoulder at the group of huskys and wolves.

Ian sighed and hung his head. Maybe brining Moth to Butch and Mishka had been a mistake. He should have known it was going to end in disaster! What had he been thinking?! He finally glanced back up and said, "Someone should go talk to her." He started towards the gate, about to go after her if no body stopped him.

Mishka looked over at her father and her eyes seemed to catch fire, the thought that he not only made her childhood horribale, he lied to her this whole time about her mother and sister's death. She took a step back as Kishma walked out and followed her.

Butch sighed, he figured Moth was confused, she didn't know Mishka or him anymore. He had changed drasticly. "Just give them time to cool off, this is all just overwhelming for them." He explained.

Ian glanced over his shoulder as Mishka came to where he was standing just outside the gate. "Are you sure you want to talk to her?" he asked. "You have only known each other for a day."

Moth couldn't help the glare she sent in Butch's direction. He used to be such a compassionate dog. Where had it all gone? "Don't you think we all should talk to her?" she said, a slight growl in her tone. "This is a family matter, not just between sisters."
