Together Again (TORTUGA)

He had sought help from Gossamir. Advice... Compassion... The brute was a bit out of sorts, still trying to cope with Blizzard?s disappearance. He didn?t want anything to happen to his sister... And he was hoping, praying that she was alright. He had, in his spare time, gotten a bit more lax on his duties. He would still patrol sure enough, but duties other than that, even hunting for himself, and fallen to the wayside. He was searching, still with a desperate hope, that he might catch some side of his brown coated sister. He missed her something fierce... The last of his kin gone... Whatever had become of their siblings? Were they alive? Were they slaves under that man who dared take his father?s life?

...and now here he was, wondering what direction, what path his life needed to take. He wasn?t leaving Tortuga, no, not at all. They were the family he had now, and though he might need to take time to check on his own kin, to find some sort of word on them, he would certainly return. These wolves were his family, his hope, his dreams, and his destiny. Tortuga was his pack, and nothing would take the loyalties the tan male had here. He would give his life for any of it?s members, especially Gossamir and Qanik. They had come to Tortuga together, and above all he had bonded the closest with them. So when Qanik?s call to the pack filled the air Ritsuka would leave his daily routine to seek the white woman and his family out.

So many had gathered already. It was uncommon for Ritsuka to lag so much in getting to a meeting, yet with his current state of heart he was finding it hard to move on with much of anything. He needed some sort of sign... Some sort of reassurance, pure and true, that things were going to be okay. That there was nothing left to stress upon. The nightmares that had come to his mind as of late had not at all helped his mind. He would say nothing to the new members of the pack, nor most that he did know. As he passed Roman he would give the woman a respectful nod before padded to Gossamir?s side. He needed her, more than anything now. He needed her light to guide him out of this darkness he?d fallen into. She would help him find his way.

Emerald orbs would shift to Qanik, a respectful nod given towards the white woman. ?Qanik.? It was a greeting, though his tone betrayed his saddened moods. He would look to Gossamir, giving a small smile. Thank god she was here. Thank god he had someone he could trust, to rely on, to lean on in his times of need. ?I?m glad to see you got here before me...? He spoke softly, feeling just a bit better now that he was in her presence. He would gently press his coat against her own, if only slightly, waiting for Qanik to begin the meeting. He was still hoping and praying that his sister would make an appearance. He wouldn?t give up on seeing her again. Not until some proof that she had joined the dead was given.
