The seconds ticked on measured by his heart beats, and still nothing happened but he was no fool to let himself relax yet. He stared into every dark shadow, looking for any sign of danger to himself or the pack, his breath just barely leaving him as he readied himself to throw back his head and howl the alarm...... Nothing but silence and his heart beating in his ears. The male blew a breath through his nostrils and flicked his tail in irritation and impatience. He could sense something, every instinct in him told him where was some fort of danger on the horizon, just out of sight. "If you're going to do something, then do it already!" he snapped into the night, to nothing in particular, at least that he could see. His dark lips pulled back to reveal his fangs in challenge, even as the fatigue seemed to slither back into him the longer he stood here, daring whatever seemed to be looming over the world to come and harm his new found family. Perhaps it was not the smartest idea to potentially challenge a God or whatever higher power that was controlling things but he had made a promise to Aurielle to help protect the pack and he was could to keep it.
Still nothing answered his challenge and he honestly did not know if that came as a relief to him or if it terrified him. He was about to let out a growl for an extra warning but the sound never made it past his throat. Nausea suddenly griped his lower abdomen like the claws of a big cat and involuntarily he began to heave painfully hard, his head dropping towards the ground as his jaws parted uncomfortably wide. He coughed and sputtered as his stomach emptied its contents, the bitter taste stinging his throat and tongue causing his eyes to water. When he blinked the clear and looked down and froze in place at the sight of what he had just expelled from his body. It was a large hairball but it was not the color of his own pelt nor was it the color or texture of what he had eaten the past few days. A shudder ran down his spine and he felt dangerously tired as he stared at the bezoar and he suddenly got the feeling that maybe he shouldn't have sent that challenge out into the night.
