Sirius called his two competing boys to him in the brisk, early hours of the morning. He had already been up and on patrol since before the sun had risen, and contemplated how to get the two of them working both in tandem and competitively. He knew Zee would have his hide if the two boys fought like wild cats over Heir.
He would start throwing them into group activities, such as this hunt, and others, in the days to come. After letting loose his howl, he sat in the pleasant sunshine that fell across his border, and waited for their appearance.
He would be leading them directly towards the Algoma Prairie, which was rich in herd life, and would offer a good variety to have the boys track and kill. Perhaps they could camp there for the night, and take down something today and tomorrow, and come back with their trophies the next day. Yes, it was a good plan. He sent Bast off to tell Zee so she would not worry when the three of them did not come back by nightfall.

Azure heard his father's call and woke abruptly. With the news that him and Mortis were to be competing for the future throne, there was no way he was going to mess anything up again. He stampeded across the plains like a tiny brown and blue bullet, thundering with wide bear paws over towards his father and nearly collapsing at his feet upon arrival. "I'm here, dad!" The boy announced proudly, lifting his head to look into the warlord's eyes. Yep, Azure was going to be the best little kid a man could ask for, especially for as long as he deemed Mortis a threat to his inheritance.

Both of Azure's ears have notches and tears.
Az has a scar across his right eye, a mirror image of his natural born marking.
Azure has saber fangs, bone spurs on his elbows and knees, and the paws/forelimbs of a bear.
Not all of these features are always reflected in his art.

Azure's companions are a very big bat and a young clouded leopard, unless otherwise stated assume they're not with him.

Mortis was a little slower then Azure. It took longer to nurture his competitive spirit, and mostly he was still surprised at this new change of pace in his life. There was a chance he could be Alpha one day? He just wanted to grow, and train, and be a warrior. He wanted to support his siblings, and be a part of the things they did. He wasn’t sure what he thought of this, but he did as he was told.
He rose, and moved quickly towards Sirius, finding Azure already there, looking up at their father. Mortis joined him, rubbing sleep from his eyes and shaking his wings, wondering what the plan was for the rest of the day.
“Hey Dad” he said, looking to his father, and to Bast who raced back towards him just now, and then to Azure. He had a feeling the challenges had already begun.

He didn’t have to wait long. In fact, he felt he had barely blinked, and then Azure was before him. Panting a little, and looking up at him, alert and ready. Mortis was slower to arrive, rubbing sleep from his eyes as though he had just woken. Mortis was showing promise but he would have a lot of work ahead of him if he wanted to be serious competition to Azure. Giving Azure a gentle pat on his giant bear paws, he addressed the two of them.
As he did so, Bast returned, so his Wife knew of their plans. “We are heading out on a two day camping trip, I expect the two of you to show me how much you’ve learnt with your hunting thus far, and to impress me with taking down large prey. Consider it a learning experience also, and feel free to ask questions. [b] “Call your companions if they are coming with, we leave now” he ordered, already turning, and heading in the direction of the prairie
Ooc: feel free to have them arrive in your post.

Mortis coming along for the ride wasn't something that thrilled Azure, but he'd take it in stride nonetheless if only so he could look even better by being mature enough to put their problems past him. He turned his head and called for Diablo, though the young leopard he had no interest dragging through the neighbouring territories. "What'dya think we'll be hunting?" The boy asked his brother as they walked, already imagining how much cooler it'd be to take down a beast of an animal instead of the small things he'd previously killed. He wondered absently if his father would disapprove of the usual carnage he enjoyed, or whether or not he'd appreciate the fact that the pup liked to slice up his kills and learn about their systems while he watched them die. "Oh I hope it's a moose. I could make a whole throne for myself out of a moose's rack."

Mortis hurriedly raised his head and howled to his bird companion. His snow leopard was still very young, and he didn’t think his father would have the patience if she set a shorter pace then the rest of them. He didn’t have to wait long before the green-toned sharp beaked bird arrived. She was a crafty little thing, and he was having some trouble getting her to do as she asked. Mostly they worked together, but taking orders wasn’t her strong suit. He hadn’t even named her yet.
He looked to his father, and to Azure as they set out at a brisk pace. “Dunno” he murmured quietly back at his brother's question.
When they arrived, their father would give directions, and Mortis glared at his Kea. she better deliver his messages then! He looped off quickly to the North of the Prairie, searching for whatever his father might consider the perfect prey.

“A throne is gaudy and has no place in my pack.” The Warlord abolished, glancing towards the more talkative of the two boys. He expected Azure to win this competition he had put into place with the pack, but he would not have his heir getting full of himself. He expected Azure to look after the pack, as much as he did himself. The pride before the fall and all that… if Azure did care for the people, he would deserve to lose the pack. That was a lesson Zee had taught him.
They arrived at the prairie after a time, and his attention moved from Azure and Mortis. He wanted to know how these two could work as a team. His eyes moved over the herds and the open land, and he considered how best to go about this. “Alright, fan out, find me something juvenile, something that doesn't look like it would survive the season. Birds are our communicators.” he said, nodding to the bat, the Kea, and the vulture, as he sent the two boys on their way.

Azure frowned as his father chimed in shutting down his idea, sighing and pulling back his ears to look contrite. Trying to prove himself worthy of heir was hard, there was so much he didn't understand. He leaned over to Mortis to complain-whisper very quietly. "I bet Deathbelle gets a throne." Eyeing his father sidelong to ensure he could not hear. Luckily they arrived and direction was hastily given. Azure threw the weight of his shoulder forward, dislodging the bat that was so happily riding upon it. "Go on." He urged. When eventually Diablo flew off, Azure moved through the prairie in the opposite direction of Mort to search. Truthfully the boy knew he was an awful tracker, so he moved quietly through the grasses in hopes of just not spooking anything while Diablo found him something for them to hunt. "Hurry up." He'd hiss to the bat as it circled above, wanting desperately to be the one to find the perfect prey.
