The morning had started like usual, but this time he had been far too tired to make his usual rounds around the border with his mother. Sleeping soundly - the boy hadn't noticed his sick mother leave the den. How hard he and his brother had tried to keep her still. Ever since the wedding she had started mumbling strange things. His dad told him to try not to worry - and Holly did her best to give their mother herbs but it just seemed like it had been going all sorts of bad. The howl to his ears was what woke him up - the tone of it he didn't yet understand but his paws splayed out in surprise. Teeth grinding against each other as the large nearly yearling stood on his limbs. His breathing quickened once he had noticed where she was, the place wolves only went to fight.
Rivaxorus was quick on his paws, his young age made it easy to get there on time. Yet what he saw wasn't what he had wanted. His two different colored eyes widened, already his mother and Sin were locked into a fight. His head was swimming - ignoring the other wolves completely as his lip quivered. She was going to die, his mother wasn't mentally or physically sound. Sin was going to destroy her. His jaw locked up tears stinging his eyes, pouncing forward he came beside his uncle Leo and grandmother Epiphron. "Mom! MOM Listen to me! You shouldn't be doing this! What about dad. What about everyone else!" he screamed out loud. Looking at Sin. "Why - why is this happening." his limbs quivered. He wanted to badly to go and tear into Sin. At the moment it was his mother he was worried about. He growled to himself. "Damnit mom." he dug his claws into the terrain. Riv was going to jump forward - he wanted to so badly.
