carve your name [challenge]

Bright Moon lifted her head as she heard a challenging howl ring out for the leader of Fiori. Someone was challenging Leo? But why? She frowned, ears pinning back in dismay. Who would try to disrupt the peace of the small, growing pack? Her first impression of this continent that it was a relatively safe place, but now she wasn't so sure. A slight panic began to rise in her chest, and she had to blink away a forming tear. It seemed that the evil in these lands was making itself known lately, and after her run in with the black-coated, red-eyed demon who had 'rescued' her from an overflowing river, she was very aware that life would no longer be the peaceful dream she had hoped for.

Though fear clawed at her belly and urged her to stay away, dainty legs took her toward the source of the call anyways. She had to be there to support her Alpha, even if she couldn't fight. She came to the battlefield and she couldn't help but to slow her pace, picking up her paws delicately as the stench of blood-soaked earth filled her nostrils. What an awful place. As she approached the group of wolves that had gathered, her heartbeat began to race, thumping hard against the inside of her chest cavity; she hoped that no one would hear it as she drew nearer. She was starting to realize that she didn't recognize anyone here. The only thing that gave her hope was the tall young man standing up against Fiori's challenger. As she looked to the bully who sought to take control of her pack, she saw the ruby red eyes. Another demon.

I shouldn't be here, she thought to herself, trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible. Her tail was wrapped up under her belly, clearly uncomfortable around all of these unfamiliar, angry looking wolves. Who else was here to support Fiori? What was going to happen to everyone, and all the young pups, if the pack was taken over? She wished she could help to protect the pack, but this was a challenge for Leo to answer.
