With the lessons she had received from her father and siblings, a devious smirk cross the juvenile adolescent dark painted lips. The soon to be yearling daughter of Gilgamesh and Modesty found herself somewhere familiar. Somewhere she had not frequented lately, almost a year! Where the hell has the months flew by. The lass known as Sagittarius needed more of exciting experiences. And not stay within the constant safety of her family's own district. She did love the empire but needed much more experience. The holding under her paws changed slowly, tract of land soon formed into a slick grounds, a land she known and remembered. A story of a giant wolf making the imprint with his large paw. So was it an artificial lake due to the story? Or was the lake something completely different? It seemed dried up a bit, however the ground was still slick with mud. The brown substance covering her paws. Releasing large squishing declaring her advancement within the land. A low growl relates forth as her tail lashed behind her. A small mongrel of a coyote making his way towards the waters edge, Sagittarius spotted the yellow like stray, as it's eyes land upon Sagittarius. Giving forth warning yips, the canine moved closer. Stalking. Sagittarius growled even lower to the flea bag of a mutt. That's when it lunged at her, viciously snapping its jowls, being about the same size as the coyote would offer some advantages, her tail rose up in a dominance like stance. When lemony pools spotted the coyote lunge that was the moment vermilion and atramentous with soft dustings of star like transparent dustings covering the youths body. Making purchase upon the coyotes slender front right leg. Sagittarius felt sharp needle like teeth sink into her neck. Thrashing her head to dislodge the other predator upon her own frame. Blood began to pool within her mouth, gurgling with her deep growls. The coyote allowed a surprised yip free with the girls attack. Sagittarius went for the coyotes throat soon, as the coyote released and relatched upon the girls muzzle. The red and ebony girl went for the coyotes throat then. Latching down, and shaking her skull rapidly. Almost to the point of making herself dizzy. 1/3 Fight Coyote Pair. "Talking."

I will not bow, I will not break;
Atreyu found herself once again out west, trying to decide if the band would move this way or not. She had to think strategically about this, because where they moved next would determine their future as well. They would need a more permanent home soon, and Atreyu wanted to ensure that she picked the perfect place for it. Moving along with silent paws, her graceful strides soon brought her to the muddied banks of Wolfpaw Lake. She smiled as she remembered the young pup she took home from here a while back, though she was quickly brought out of her revelry by the sounds of snapping jaws and yipping from nearby.

Running in the direction of the sound in case someone needed help, Atreyu was surprised to see the recognizable form of Sagitarrius and a coyote tangled in a fight. While the younger pup was busy with the one coyote, another had snuck up behind her and was about to pounce. Not on Atreyu's watch. Leaping forward without a thought, Atreyu drew her hawksbill blade and aimed it at the second coyote's side though the creature was quick and moved away in time. It only received a nasty shallow cut from her blade, but the goal was achieved. The coyote had turned its focus onto the larger opponent, the bigger threat, leaving its mate to the mercy of Sagitarrius.

The coyote lunged for Atreyu, jaws splayed open wide, but Atreyu didn't lurch away. Instead, the spotted woman lunged forward to meet the coyote's jaws head-on. Bowing her head, she aimed a nasty headbutt for the lower jaw of the coyote, catching it off guard and finding itself with a dislocated jaw instead of a victim. The attack cost Atreyu a few cuts on her forehead, but it was worth it. The coyote was rendered defenseless for the most part and Atreyu went in for the kill. Bowling the coyote over, Atreyu took the claws from it and aimed her teeth for the throat. With a sharp twist of her head, the coyote went limp beneath her massive frame. Teach them to mess with her friends.

Sagittarius didn't realize another of the tawny pelted scavengers were also eyeing her up. Seeing the girl as a easy target. But a target she was not. She was becoming stronger, more agile, due to her slender frame. Although she was tangled up within the fight of survival with one of the coyotes another was close by, watching. Waiting for it's own moment to strike. Sagittarius smelt blood soon, her own mixed with the coyotes that dripped, splattering and staining the ground below them both. Harsh growls leaving her throat, as a loud growl flew from Sagittarius as the coyote managed to get a purchase upon Sagittarius's shoulder after dislodging from the scruff of her neck. The young girl, once more aimed for the coyotes throat once more. Making her own purchase upon the flesh, teeth sinking in as growls were bubbled threw the blood that pooled within the females mouth. A few good shakes she felt the other dislodge it's canines from her. The form falling almost lifeless within her grasp. Sagittarius spit out the blood and left that of the form fall with a thud. Her neck was sore, and blood dripped from a large wound upon her shoulder. Whimpers emitted forth, pain surged from her wound upon her shoulder. The pup limped, as not realizing Atreyu standing not far away, she was searching for something to help with the wound. Before that of other predators would arrive. Hoping that no others would, but these strange times one could never tell. Yellow pools turning over the lands as a wave of her tail once landing upon Atreyu. 2/3 Fighting Coyote Pair "Talking."

The massive frame of Atreyu on the coyote was much like that of a lion attacking a jackal, the coyote stood no chance. The moment it decided to threaten one she genuinely cared for it had sealed its fate. After dislocating the coyote's jaw, Atreyu went in for the kill, shaking the creature by the throat until it was dead beneath her. Ears flicked back toward Sagittarius when the girl whimpered, ensuring the coyote was in fact dead before turning her full attention to her younger friend.

Seeing the girl's shoulder, Atreyu gasped and looked her over for any other wounds. "Lay down, young one. We're gonna have to fix you up." Atreyu's tone suggested there would be no argument, this was an emergency. The scent of blood permeated the air and Atreyu knew it was only a matter of time before another predator was attracted to the scene. Despite the strong show from the pup, Atreyu understood what that pain felt like. Having her own shoulder scar from a tiger, luckily Scylla had fixed her up that day. Now she could pay it forward, it seemed as though the gods had placed her here for a reason. Setting her satchel down, Atreyu opened it to find her sutures and a bone needle. Some of those cuts needed stitches.

Sagittarius was proud of herself, but not her injuries that covered some of her body, eyes turning to the limp body of the coyote who looked to be slightly bigger than herself. What drove them to do this? To allow themselves to attack a young wolf? Was it hunger or something entirely different? Was it due to the skies being clouded in red rays of light? The pup growled, curling her lips up. Before she gripped the coyotes throat once more and thrashed her head around. Blood painting her facial features, hackles still rose. Although they would fall down along her spine. Not realizing just how bad her shoulder was. Were the coyotes canines grabbed separated her coat from her muscles. It was all part of learning fighting though. Wasn't it? She offered Atreyu a smile, however it hid the pain that Sagittarius was enduring. "You still owe me the story of the giant wolf." The younger than a yearling said with a slow whimper filled with pain. It wasn't a good situation. "What's driving them to attack those that are bigger..." The girl listened as she lowered upon her side. Not knowing just how bad it was, however she'd have a cool looking scar to show off. That brought a smile to her face. And least she wasn't the one laying there limp. 3/3 Fought a large opponent - Coyote pair 1/3 Healing Lesson - Atreyu. "Talking."

Once Atreyu knew both coyotes were dead, she would set to work on healing up Sagittarius' shoulder. The wound was pretty bad from what she could see, but not so bad that it couldn't be patched up. Pulling out a cantine of water from her satchel, Atreyu looks to the young red and black girl, "I'm sorry, but this will sting really bad..." Flushing the wound despite any protests, Atreyu makes sure the area is clean. "I do owe you a story, and you will get one if you be very still and let me get these stitches done." Atreyu gave the younger wolf a promise, but she had to fix her up first. Cleaning the area one more time, Atreyu aimed to give Sagittarius the first of her stitches, hoping the girl could be brave and hold still.

Sagittarius didn't care for the words that came from her friends mouth, that it would sting really bad. It gave way for a small snarl to curl the girls lip up revealing sharp little canines. She would try to hold still as the pain was bareable but also unbareable at the same time. It was major discomfort. Something they all known. But it would heal with the help of stitches or whatever was needed.

She listened to the pink feline splashed woman, feeling the sting as she poured what was ever within the cantine, to flush the wound, not once but freaking twice! A sharp yip was released. Would Sagittarius pass out from the pain? She wouldn't allow herself too. No, pain is what made her stronger. Although knowing that if her family had caught on to what happened. That would be a whole nother story.

A story that Sagittarius didn't want to deal with or explain. But however she was happy that someone she had trusted was there to help and guide her. But man, oh man. She didn't want to deal with it much longer. It was like the family and pack couldn't keep her still. No, she was always out venturing and didn't want to say looking for trouble. Trouble always had a way to find her.

She laid there, wincing as she felt the needle, which warrented a growl. But she still laid there. Not wanting to mess up the stitches.
