Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
As soon as she heard the new panic seized her body. She had turned to find Cru and Twig weren't there. Where were they? Jinxx said Twig was at least in Valhalla. Cru she had last seen at the lake. She was of no use in Valhalla with her lack of knowledge. She had requested permission from Erani to go find her siblings, to warn them. But she also had the task of warning the packs around Ala too. It was scary, doing this but if it was the least she could do to help, she'd do it. She ran almost blindly, tail streaming out behind her, slender legs a blur, ears pinned to her skull. She didn't know why but something said to go this way, run here. She followed her instinct and just ran. She cared not for food, rest or water. This was of high importance. She dearly wished to see Cru, to hide in her brother's shoulder and scream. The horror of seeing Jinxx so ill, body shaking, blood tearing down his face. She had held it together at that time but now away from Valhalla she was scared to death.



For all she knew Jinxx was dying and that had been the last time she would see him alive, She hoped not, prayed not. Paws skidded to a sliding halt just inches from a pack boarder. Panting she stood there till she caught her breath. Head toss back to let for a urgent call to the Alpha, Healer, and even Cru if he was here just by chance. Body shook with visible fear, ice blue eyes were wide, head lowered. She stood there nervously waiting, hoping.

The world of Covari had fallen silent, and her days spent in her den rummaging through her assorted herbs had blocked her from the happenings of the world. Since her visitation with Othello and the news that she was pregnant ? and the herbs she had given the other to mellow out her emotions... Well, Orchid had been high. She and Othello had spent the day together munching on herbs and losing themselves to its mellowing effect. She had continued on with this, enjoying the feeling of it and spending her days in a whirlwind of dreams and laughter. When at last it had all stopped and she found herself back in reality she had missed the start of the terror happening in the world beyond.



When a call from a stranger rang out, summoning the Alpha and healers alike she would tilt her head in surprise. Uncertain of the emergency she rolled up a leaf of different herbs and carefully twirled it into the thick fur just below her neck. With that done she would jog towards the call, surprised again to find it was at the border. She tossed away her hesitancy, she wasn't here as Orchid, sister of Scorpion ? she was here as healer.



She stopped before the white girl, tilting her head and once more pushing through her naturally shy nature ? becoming a healer had been nothing but good for her, allowed her to be someone else and approach what she might not have before. ?You called for a healer, do you need assistance?? she asked in a soft tone, her head still tilted. This girl was not Covari.. that means she did not have to offer her assistance if she decided it wasn't worth her time.

She was almost completely covered in blood both dried and fresh not that it could really be seen in her pelt due to the color but the state of her pelt was disheveled and matted. For the past week she had allowed it to gather and collect in her fur. Though she had taken care to distance herself from Crucifix caution had been thrown to the wind at the site of her love being sick. Since then she had remained with them both. Having Maia care for her children. Well... All except one. Vi had spent two days searching for her first born daughter in vain. Fia was nowhere to be found. Hopefully she was fine and would turn up soon enough for Maia to get her to safety. Before she would be exposed to this sickness and these horrid sights. There was little worse then seeing your loved ones in the midst of pain and panic and being unable to do anything. Vi had found some herbs to try and bring the fever down but fear of fucking something up kept her from trying any herbs that might help with the bloody eyes.

She was out collecting herbs at the swampland when she heard the call. Slowly Vi would lift her head and a lip would curl harshly. It was an unknown source, but it was calling for herself and healers. And... Crucifix? Could it be her Cru? She would wait a moment before collecting the herbs she had gathered and setting off at an easy lope towards the boarders. She knew she looked terrible and she hated it, her once white paws and belly now an awe ful mixture of brown and red from laying in the bloody dirt in the dens of the sick. Even the black marks around her eyes were marred with blood. It seemed she had not missed a single spot on her body. She was a queen, she should be doing better, she should be able to handle the sick and look her best but she just couldn't.

Orchid was already there when she arrived, head carried low and tail licking at her heels in an almost subservient manor. She no longer had the energy to show her pride in her pack. Slowly she would circle Orchid, nodding to her before dropping the herbs she carried and eyeing the woman before her. "That cross looks familiar... Wouldn't happen to be part of the Black family would you?" She asked, voice holding almost no emotion. She couldn't bring herself to put on a facade, to pretend to care about anything that wasn't her family and her pack. She wore no mask for quite possibly the first time in her life and what showed was almost nothing at all. No emotion, no mischievous flicker in those lantern eyes, no sly tilt to her lips. Vi already had a sneaking suspicious this woman was here to talk of the plague. Nothing this bad could be contained to one area. Though as far as Vi knew it wasn't immediately contagious. At least not through contact or even exchange of bodily fluids. She would be sick if it was.... Right?

She would not have to wait long for someone to arrive. At once she lowered her head more, tail flat down in respect. She would glance up at the woman before her in shades of orange with eyes like a summer sunset. There was not hostility only a seeming curiosity as to why she was here. Before she could answer this woman another one, a pelt of red joined them. Her eyes cast between them, flicking from one then the other. She couldn't tell who was a healer and who was an Alpha. But then again pack dynamics were not of her knowledge yet. The red woman looked awful, like she lacked a few nights of sleep and Angel could have sworn she could scent blood on this female. But alarming more was the scent of sickness clinging to her fur. She didn't seem sick but someone in their pack most be.



Ears perked up at the question of her family and head too would jump up. Her ice blue eyes fixated on the red woman with an intense hope. Was someone in her family here?"Yes Ma'am. I am Angel Black. I come from Valhalla with urgent message. A illness is sweeping the pack. Blood runs from their eyes, a fever plagues the body into fit of seizure like trembling. I can to warn the packs of this illness, but seeing you Ma'am makes me believe you have already seen this illness. I also come looking for my brother Crucifix and sister Twig." She replied softly, swallowing down her nerves.

Orchid's eyes would widen in shock as her Alpha approached her. It was clear in her body language at the blank look in her eyes that the last few days for her had been hell. The young girl dropped a little in her stance, at once in utter shame that she had spent the last few days high in her den, well clearly something had been happening in the world beyond. The scent of blood and sickness was indeed on their queen and orchid's eyes upon her where weary and watchful. Before she could question her Alpha the newcomer was speaking again. She mentally swept away the words of family, it was of no consequence to the healer. Her words of a plague however had her interest in a whole different way. She leaned forward, instantly curious. ?Bleeding eyes, fever fits?" she asked in a terrible curiosity, her healer interest captivated by this. She wanted to know more, her eyes flicked to her Alpha, she had a feeling the red queen already knew what was being said.. and truly.. she needed something for her spirits. She contemplated what herbs she had on her and if she should offer her Alpha something calming and relaxing.



?What else do you know? Is it contagious, if so do you know how?" she would ask, but this time her gaze encompassed both the stranger and her Alpha ? wondering which one might have her answers.



Once again she thought about Vi.. she had both Motherwort and marijuana, either of which could help calm her. She lowered her head slightly, angling it towards the queen to speak below the strangers hearing. ?Would my queen like something to ease the stress?"

Everyone seemed to notice her sickly smell and appearance and quite honestly a large part of her wanted to snap and bark at both. She was tired and stressed and hated everyone suddenly. Fuck them both... The girl spoke, saying she was Crucifix's sister and a I would allow her lips to twitch up in the smallest smile before she lost her hold on it and it fell away. She carried on to speak of the sickness and it's symptoms most of which she already knew except the seizures. Yippie... Orchid would speak next, quickly asking questions asking if it was contagious and so forth. But one thing had hit her heavily. She was from Valhalla... Vi had went out of her way to avoid them, to avoid any contact with their wolves. Was that where Crucifix was from? Or was their family simply spread out more? She observed everything with a hardened gaze until Orchid leaned close and asked her if and wanted something to relax.

Honestly. She wanted fucking poppy seeds. Ever since kicking the addiction two years ago she had never had a craving as bad as now. But maybe something less potent would be nice. "Please... After this..." Voice was lowered, soft so only Orchid could head, head bent into her neck so hot breath would cascade over her fur. She would pull away after a moment and look to the girl. "Crucifix is my beta here. He is sick. He was the first sick... At this time I cannot risk your health by letting you see him... But once this has passed I will be sure to call for you..." Her voice held a hard edge, really leaving the girl no room for argument. She would stand firm on this. Being a neutral pack really did no good if another packs wolf got sick because of her...

She would notice the woman who first arrived only seemed interested in the illness itself. Which Angel could understand. Her own family matters were nothing compared to this strange plague. She couldn't blame either one if they didn't give a flip about her siblings. At once the orange eyed woman started with questions that made her feel overwhelmed."I..uh..from what we know it is not contagious but no one knows how long it will take for symptoms to actually show. We have been careful not to be in contact with the blood. As of right now no herbs we have are working. It might take a combination of things." She replied while shifting her weight.



She would look away politely as the two conversed between each other. Her mind drifted else were back to the day she had met Skoll. She wondered if he was ok. She couldn't help it, though he had done her wrong she still cared for him. Her head turned back when the red woman spoke to her. Heart freezed and seemed to clench up in her chest. Cru was here? He was sick?! She took a step forwards, jaws gaping open and eyes wide. She wanted to see him more than anyone else and now she couldn't. Her body shook and head bowed down, eyes closing. Why was her brother here and not in Valhalla? Why did he have to be sick too? Was it possible she could be loosing two brothers? A whine slipped from her throat as tears slowly trickled down her face. But she couldn't disobey these wolves. What they said was true. She could either pass on the sickness or get it herself."Can..can you let him know Jinxx is sick too. And to maybe visit Valhalla when he is better?" She asked in a hoarse voice as she looked up. She had never felt so useless and hopeless than she did right at that moment. She could do nothing to help her brothers, she couldn't even see one of them to comfort. She sat down heavily on the earth, her breathing short and fast. What was she going to do? For a moment she forgot where she was and who was infront of her.

Eyes would flash back and forth between the two, and a quick grin would form for vi as she spoke, and the healer gave her head a slight nod in understanding, she would see her alpha chilled and content later. Her attention would return to the stranger as she told them more about this epidemic. She wondered how far reaching this was, and for that matter who in Vi's pack had it so far. Her eyes furrowed a little as she thought of Scorpion, she would be vigilant in his safety, she would conjure up some healthy herbs to boost his immune-system... she decided.



She had been lost in her thoughts, and then next thing she knew the girl was in tears. She moved forward slowly lowering her head to look at the other girl. Her eyes where filled with concern and again she spoke softly, although loud enough for her alpha to hear "if your stressed I have some herbs on me to calm you" she offered gently... One would think she was trying to get everyone high...

The woman began by saying what she knew of the disease and Vi would sigh, closing her eyes for a moment and thinking. She knew more about this disease then the woman did, but she was from Valhalla? Did she really want to share? For a moment she battled with the indecision before brushing it off. "I'm covered in their blood and I'm fine. Its been about a week since first contact. As far as I can tell? Its not contagious from wolf to wolf?" She murmured softly. She should contribute something right? But then as Vi's words settled in on the girl she started crying and Vi sighed, she didn't deal with crying emotional girls well. Angel passed along a message and Vi tipped her head slowly. "I'll pass along the message. He won't die. Once he is well you and your family will be welcome within our boarders whenever you would like to visit? But yes? I will tell him." Still her tone was clipped and a bit harsh but there was a promise there. There was a promise in her tone as she said that Cru wouldn't die. She wouldn't let him die. Lantern gaze would flitter to Orchid as the younger girl asked Angel if she wanted some herbs to calm down. At this? She couldn't help but chuckle lightly. She really was an interesting girl.

Speech!
