[Blizzard]

Winter 42nd, 511AV Blizzard sighed as she sat up top on a rock on one of the mountainous places of Avanthal. She sighed and exmined her surroundings looking down at the glowing city of Avanthal, then at the forests of snow and ice around her. She kicked the snow off the rock that was falling and shook her coat. This place was starting to get boring. The snow, the ice, the whiteness. She sighed and plopped back down on the large boulder Oh, who am I kidding? this place is getting more boreing by the second. No matter how many new people I meet. Nothing here is... new. It's just same ole' same ole'. She jumped down and sighed walking back down the mountain again. She thought along the way of all the new faces she'd met There's Alea, Banir, Zygaud, oh, and don't forget Cillion who's been giving me shelter. Oh! And that crazy stag that made the horse go crazy when there was absoltely no call for it. She growled in disgust. The stag looked so tasty, but her human side commanded her overwhelming hunter's side to not provoke anything. Plus, she was so tired that day from shifting. Which is why today or, what was left of today, she wouldn't shift unless in dire need. She had her clothes tied around her back leg facing outward and it was so tightly packed that it was really small on her leg and it made it easier on her than carrying it around in her mouth. She sighed. She wasn't even a quarter down the mountain now. She decided she'd run. She quickly picked up speed and was darting through the trees.

[Edythe]

Timestamp: “Come here Binnie.” Edythe commanded softly as she tried to coax her beloved elk from the broken and dead bark of a scraggily bush. The beast merely glanced at her before turning away. Quickly Edythe struggled through the thick snow and grasped the leather tie around the doe’s neck; tugging the animal back to her side and in her control again. A soft sigh escaped the Vantha’s lips, producing a wispy white cloud as the vapor dispersed. The girl turned and began heading back to her home, ignoring the cold wind as it whipped her face harshly. She had left nearly an hour ago to let Binnie graze on whatever the elk could find and was craving a warm drink. Her footfalls became quite heavy as the snow thickened and she turned to better guide her pet, not wishing for injuries. Once out of the danger she continued on normally until she heard a noise. Glancing around Edythe spotted a rapidly approaching animal though she wasn’t quite sure as to what kind of animal it was. As it neared alarm spread through her as she worried for the safety of the elk that stood next to her. The beast seemed to be a snow leopard and that was extremely dodgy. There was no way the girl could outrun the massive cat, especially with Binnie to tug along too. She hoped it would just pass by and leave them be, but that was a bit too generous.

oocHey Blizzard, what's the timestamp for this thread?

[Blizzard]

Blizzard stopped n her tracks and intsantly lowered herself into the snow almost becoming invisible by blending in. She looked through the trees and saw a large doe. No, it was an elk cow. She licked her lips thinkingabout an extra meal. She slowly advanced on it ten saw a Vantha near it It's owned. Keep running Blizzard. She growled loudly in frustration then slowed down and began walking down the side side of the mountain instead of dartng. She might could snag a mea- SNAP. She looked around and saw a straggling doe walking through the forest. You need breakfast, Blizzard. Don't blow it.

[Vespirus]

Not much had been going on for a while, so Ves took a stroll through the woods. Shivering from the cold hard winds blowing, she took shelter in between two trees. "If I don't find something to eat soon, I'll just have to turn back and go home hungry again." Then something moving caught her interest, "Is-is that a dear? No, it's an elk! I finally get to eat something that isn't uncooked fish!" She flipped out her knife, and slowly advanced. Then she saw something else, it was white spotted leopard of an animal. "Okay, if I can just get the elk without fight then I will, but if the leopard attacks, then I eat that too." Ves always had loved her meat, so when she gets her chances, she'll take everything she can.

[Blizzard]

OOC NoteJust a thought, we need to establish an order. I figured Me, Edythe, then Vespirus, and then I'll figure out anyone else who joins. ~~~~~ Blizzard jerked her head uo when she heard something around a nearby tree. The doe jerked it's head up to. I swear! There goes my food!!! The doe had heard it too. Blizzard looked around trying to pinpoint the thing that caused it. The doe bolted for it's dear life. Blizzard began to chase it, but she decided it wasn't worth it. She growled loudly and snarled in the direction of the sound. It sounded somewhat like talking. She walked over and growled at the being in between the two trees. It was a Vantha. Do you realize you costed mea meal? she screamed out in her head. She took a paw and covered her snout with it, then started walking again. She shook her head in disgrace looking for another meal knowing it was one chance. By this time any other game had probably scrambled off.

[Vespirus]

She was very worried the cat would confront her, but doubted it. So Ves was very taken aback by it walking past her. Not wanting to talk out loud right next to the snow leopard Damn! Stupid leopard made me forget to throw my knife. She thought to herself. I'm tired of these carnivores making me lose all of my food! "Hey!" She yelled. "You dumb cat, that was my dinner!" Vespirus loved animals, she really did. But when you come between her and her food, that is crossing the line. "I still could have chased it down! Then maybe you would have gotten something, but no! You had to screw up my concentration..." Her voice faltered, "I'm speaking to an animal aren't I? I talk to myself, I talk to animals. I wouldn't be surprised if I were crazy. That's still no excuse for dinner. You may just be an animal, but I think you know what you just did!" She knew that she probably cost the leopard it's dinner as well, but her rage sought past it and her habit of never running out of things to say kept her words coming. Her screaming also probably chased off any other food, but the leopard would be suitable meal. "You'r a beautiful animal, but I swear, you are going to be my next meal!"

[Blizzard]

Blizzard growled hearing everything the Vaantha said. She growled louder then roared. She undid the tie around her leg that held her clothes. They fell in the snow. She didin't care if when she morphed she'd be naked. This Vantha had amde her mad and she would not stand for this.

She morphed instantly revieling an extremely tall girl with really long blonde hair and blue eyes. She growled which sounded just like her snow leopard form, then it turned into a snarl, which then continued on into another roar. She bared her teeth at the Vanthat which still were left over from her snow leopard form "Who do you think you are?!?" She was yelling, practically screaming at the girl "Calling me dumb?!? I do believe you are the dumbass who yelled at a hungry snow leopard! Who interupted MY hunt! YOU humans can just walts on into Avanthal and buy food that cost practically nothing to soothe your hunger, when us natural predators must hunt something twice our size or equal to use just to satisfy our hunger to halfway full!" She moaned "I swear, if there wasn't laws around Avanthal, I would've hunted you right here and right now as a food source. But alas, I assume that is why the southern conflicts have ceased to reach up here yet."

She growled again. Her hunger was not satisfied at all, and neither was her overpowering instict to kill this Vantha for bursting out at her "Now I must spend more energy, morph back, and then..." she sighed "It's not even worth the effort. I guess I'll just sleep to escape my hunger!" She growled again.

[Vespirus]

"Whoa! Your a Kelvic?" The woman standing in the leopard's place was far more beautiful than most women she had seen in town. "I'm so sorry, I didn't think- I mean- sorry... Please let me take you into town, I would love to buy you a calf to make up for this, but to be honest i don't get much to eat either, I mean look at me, I'm this little twig of a girl. Your this beautiful woman. I can only wish I was half as stunning as you." She was truly awe-struck. "In fact, I get quite lonely at home and it doesn't seem like you have much of a house do you? Would you mind coming home with me for a talk? You don't have to, though I insist you let me buy you the cow." Her eyes shifted to a gold color showing her guilt. She had gone from a very angry manner of thinking to a sorrowful self conscious mood. Her emotions were always so quick to change. "Please."

[Blizzard]

Her eyes narrowed, then she sighed "Keep your money for the calf. I'll just snag something along the way. Of coarse, a warm house does seem great."

Actually, it seemed amazing. She hadn't slept in a warm house in about a week since Cillion's. Where was he? she thought. She shook her head, then put her white dress, and snow leopard fur shaw on. She put her red flower in her hair. "I'd love to talk." She smiled brightly. She figured it was the least that could be done since the girl had scared away a meal. "Thanks for the compliment."

[Vespirus]

The flower and dress only complemented her looks even more. "Were did you get that dress?" She asked as she began walking home. "It looks far more expensive than anything I could ever buy." She traced her thoughts back and forth, her eyes flipped to a deep brown inquisitive color. "Did you grow up here?" Her thoughts would never stop coming, no matter how many questions the Kelvic answered, there would be more. "Oh, I don't even know your name. I'm getting to far ahead of myself. I'm Vespirus, but my friends call me Ves. Not that I ever had very many, more my mom called me Ves, but the local fish salesman calls me Ves, and he sometimes gives me free fish. I however have no way to cook them, so they don't even taste that great- and I'm talking too much aren't I."
