SIX






It was raining. An afternoon shower over the dusty battlefield. Mud had formed beneath her massive paws. She ran across the muddy plains with narrowed eyes. It was the day to spar against her lovely Aldoro. They shared a ncie time together at the col. They had fallen asleep together upon a cliff, they talked for a long time. She had developed small feelings for the man, but that would not control her. He was but a man, no more, no less. He shall be her guard, when she finally becomes a Queen. It excited the woman to the core. To finally rule over a kingdom. The woman had second thoughts about challenging. The girl may or may not challenge Syrinx for his throne. Six may just form a pack, which was slightly less impressive and it did not show her as a worthy leader. But, she just wanted her own pack. The girl would get it in one way or another. She found a nice, muddy, clearing. Six tilted up her head and let forth her song. She beckoned Aldoro before her, to spar.

The icy rain droplets splattered all over his charcoal pelt, putting the large man into an uncomfortable state. Mud was thrown up behind him as he stepped along the wet terrain with his bright pools studying the area. It wasn't too long ago since he had met the enchanting woman, Six. He couldn't take his mind off that night. It was as if the world had become a dream for him. But since the woman had requested a spar, he agreed, and was now searching for her through the battlefield. He couldn't help but feel a bit scared, worried. But at the same time waves of excitement overwhelmed him. The boy really couldn't explain his inside feelings. Too complicated, he'd always say. Suddenly his thoughts were cut off by a crispy shriek. No, it sounded familiar. Aldoro whirled around and jerked himself forward, his paws beginning to skip across the muddy plain. Finally he entered a massive area, in which was clear and open. The man took a moment to absorb the features of this place--- right before a large black blob was placed a distance away from him. The sound of the pattering rain and the faint darkness from the cloudy sky made it hard for him to notice who it was. But as he inched forward, the girl's beautiful purple eyes flashed before him. He smiled and stepped back a bit before nearly yelling out, "Shall we get started?" through the pounding rain.

SIX






The woman was excited when his padfalls came slithering into her ears. Six watched him saunter in. The behemoth dipped her head into a gentle, polite, bow. The girl liked the mane before her. As a friend? Yes. More? Maybe. She did not know yet. The girl was not one to jump into relationships. She did not throw herself at men except when all she wanted was pleasure. Six was veering from her whoreish ways, which was nice. She usually did as she wished, enduldging in lovely sex with any man she wished. Yet, having greater ambitions left her to forget about all of that. Now all she wants is power. He spoke to her as he got closer. Six smirked, her lips curling up and staying there. Her shoulders rolled back. Her hackles swelled up and rolled into lumps of tough skin. Her legs were squared and bent to the knees. Her claws dug into the mud below. A black tail was aligned with her spine while her head aligned as well, lowered. Her ears narrowed to protect from rain and blinding. Ears flattened and head tilted down to protect her neck. Her jaws opened to flash her already exposed fangs and to protect her neck as well. The woman's muscled core tightened. Six stared at him with deadly eyes, it seemed she shifted from her usual cruel state to dangerous.

Six charged the boy with confidence. Her paws dug into the mud with each step. She attempted to slam her chest into him with force. Her right shoulder would be aimed to slam him square in the sternum. Such an attack would cause bruising, even a break if it hit hard enough. Her head would aim to dip down, jaws a gape, and attempt to snap at his right upper foreleg thigh. If her jaws connected to flesh it would inflict a flesh would and it may make his leg less mobile. With her paws and claws dug into the mud and her knees bent the girl would attempt to push him back with her force. If successful he would have to push her back or his balance would feeble. It was a subtle attack, more of a distraction. The woman timed out each movement with such perfection.

There was no reply to his soft words, in which stung him a bit. The man wasn't a merciless beast in which went out killing a ton of wolves and challenging them. He was generous, and he had a soft heart. No, he wasn't a coward. But he just backed out of the dangerous. And this indeed, was dangerous. Over time Six had become a crush of his. He didn't want to hurt her and he didn't want her to hurt him. But that wasn't a choice, was it? Aldoro was obviously the weaker and soft-hearted one of the two. It bothered him constantly, knowing that some could be seeing him as a weak male. A weakling in which denied all requests to spar. This was his first spar after all! The man, before the woman began charging at him, squared his shoulders and lowered his head. His legs did not tremble despite his fear. He wanted to look at least a little bit strong. Aldoro's lips curled back so that his alabaster teeth were revealed and prepared. Finally, the black blob that was once a distance away from him came racing at him.

It seemed that time had flown by within seconds as a burning pain exploded in his chest. The man uneasily lifted his upper frame and stuttered backward, the mud beneath his massive paws nearly making him slip. But suddenly, another burning pain bursted from his foreleg theigh. This time he let out a quiet whine in agony. Since this was his first time sparring, the young boy didn't imagine the pain like this. It seemed like she popped a ballon once she snapped her deadly jaws around his legs. He could feel the warm blood slithering down his elbow slowly, the pain still pounding constantly. Now, loosing balence from her powerful shove, he fell to the ground and groaned as mud splattered all over his face. "Get up, you weakling!" The boy screamed in his mind. Momentarily he lifted himself to his shaky paws and glared up at Six sorrowfully. He jerked his massive frame forward and began to run at the woman, his leg, once again, pulsing in agony. But within seconds of running at the girl, he slid infront of her and attempted to shove her with the force of his massive frame. It wouldn't cause any serious pain, but a shock that could make her dazed. If he would of made direct impact to the woman, he would attempted to slip his maw beneath her chin and snap his now agape jaws around her neck. It hurt him to do this. He hated hurting others for no purpose...but it this was to impress the girl, so be it.

SIX






Six did not want to hurt the man. She had developed a big crush on hi,. Usually men would take advantage of her. They would ask her for pleasure or even force her mentally to do so. But he.. he slept next to her. Their fur mingled and so did their souls. It was delightful, to just sleep next to him in peace. No funny business. No touching or whispers of sweet nothings. A burn swelled within the womans heart that made it thud to the beat of love. Yet, it was not love, not yet. It was way to soon to love. But, there was a flicker that could be ignited in due time. To hear the man whimper in pain brought her to whimper internally. Six would never want to harm him to the point of weakness but he surprised her.

As their chests slammed together he seemed to stumbled back. Her jaws slid to their mark, wrapping around his upper right thigh. Blood filled her throat as she swallowed it shamelessly. Six was much more ruthless then your average girl. As he was shoved back the girls teeth were ripped from their hold, which may or may not cause him pain. He slid back in the mud and she stumbled forward. He came flying at her quickly. The woman tucked her head, bent her knees, and flattened her ebony ears to brace herself for impact. He hit her square on, bruising her chest even more. Six gasped, the air had left her already damaged lungs. The behemoth gasped for air, wheezing could be heard, but she continued on. His hit caused her to stumble back quickly, though she did remain on her feet. He aimed low, his jaws going for her neck. Due to Six having her chin tucked he did not catch her jugular, it was more scruff and tender muscle then anything. The woman cried out in pain, a whimper. Due to he now being beneath her the girl would try to bring her left paw up and wrap it around him. If it were to do so she would press down on him to perhaps push him down to the ground. If he went down her knees would be bent and her muddy paws dug deep into the earth to keep her balanced. Her jaws would also snap at his scruff in attempt to latch onto more flesh to inflict another flesh wound in the mean time. Six would keep her eyes slit and her tail straight out.

As the girl whined, he felt like calling the fight himself. He couldn't bear hearing her cry of pain. It seemed he was betraying her. No, he wasn't. It was just a spar. But even if it was--- the man was heart-broken. He tried not to hurt her too severely. But he was to impress her...the boy was in a flurry of questions and thoughts as weight suddenly shoved him to the ground. He squirmed and tried escaping the girls weight, but he gave up when the attempt seemed impossible. Then knife-like jaws wrapped around his scruff. He let out a weak whine, continuing to squirm uncontrollably beneath her weight. His ears flattened against his head slowly as his eyes drifted to her nearby pillars, yet still pushed to the ground.

Aldoro's lips quivered as he continued to snarl. Rain still poured down quickly and painted his face, making it hard for him to see things clearly. His eyes, though, were directed toward the woman's legs in which were stuck firmly within the muddy terrain. The man let out a low growl before attempting to twist around enough so that he could snap at the arm wrapped around him. This may, if suceeded, cause the woman to back off a bit. By this decrease of power amongst him he would have enough strength to whirl his downed frame around and push the girl off him. Once up, if the tecnique were to suceed, he'd attempt to spring at her and wrap his front legs around her, enough to push her to the muddy ground. By this he may or may not have caused her to loose her breath. But either way, he'd give her a turn.

-

Defenses: paws firm in the mud for balence, tail high, head lowered, shoulders squared, ears flattened against head, lips curled
Attacks: Aldoro had tried to snap at Six's arm that was wrapped around him, in order for her to loose some of the strength that was pushing him to the ground. By this, he'd use some of the bit of power he had left by pushing Six off of him and knocking her to the ground by jumping at her and wrapping his 'arms' around her.
Injuries: Massive bite on the right upper foreleg, bruised chest, deep bite around his scruff, weak

SIX






All of her ruthless attacks landed and a round of whimpers were heard from the man. Her jaws were encased around his flesh and he was squiriming upon the muddy ground. His teeth then wrapped around her left leg and she yelped from the sharp pain to the bone. Six was then caught off guard, her teeth escaped their grasp on his scruff and she was tackled. The woman was forced down into the mud with a thud. Her breathing was heavy, she could barely get in a good breath. The rain made it worse. Her eyes tilted up to the man as he towered over her with power. Usually the girl would get back up no matter what but she did not have it in her to harm both of them out of a blinded ruthless rage. She was covered with mud head to toe. The lady laid in the mud. Her throat and her leg bled into the mud. Six whimpered softly and let out soft words. "I can't." Though it was the right thing to do the girl was ashamed. Would this lung injury be her demise as a Queen? If she couldn't fight in a simple spar could she fight in a challenge for her very throne?

ooc: it was decided that we would just stop the fight. no need for any judging XD

The man, still towered over the girl, stared down at her in shock as her shame-filled words entered his large ears. He frowned down at her. The man couldn't help but feel bad for her. He expected her to stand and continue to fight him. Aldoro continued to frown before he slowly leaned his head in until his nose pressed against hers. A smile curled along his lips and his eyes fluttered shut. Within seconds, he pulled away and stepped off the fae. He stood quiet for a second before letting words blurt from his maw. "Your fighting is superior, m'lovely." His bright, bi-colored eyes ran over her wounds that he gave her. Now he frowned again. "I'm really sorry..."

The woman stared up at him with watery eyes. She had never been defeated in a fight. Was that the start? The start of her demise? Six sucked in a tight breath before going into a fit of coughing. The ash damaged her lungs badly. Once it stopped he leaned down and touched his nose to hers. The girl smiled in that moment, her heart fluttered quickly. Though it faded when he slipped away. His voice filled her ears and she shook her head. "You have bested me.." Her voice was rough from the pain within her lungs. Her head flopped down into the mud. She just laid there, the rain pelting her skin. Six shut her eyes as his next words came. The girl may look dramatic but in reality fighting was the only thing she had that she was really confident in, other then her charm. How could she be Queen without fighting? She let forth soft words, "I am not fit to be a Queen." A defeated Wolf laid within the mud in that moment.

The man let forth a saddened huff. He had not defeated her. She had given up. He hoisted himself to his paws and stepped beside her, quickly lowering himself down and allowing his fur to press against hers. Aldoro smiled and licked gently at her bloody wound at the lower area of her neck. Then, he paused and lifted his head to face her. "Oh, don't say that, Six. You are going to become a Queen. I know it." The man sighed yet again and continued to lick at her wound a few times before pausing again and blurting out, "Heck, you could of killed me there. You are a strong, young, beautiful wolf, Six. I have faith and you...now you should have faith in yourself..." With that, he nuzzled her neck and continued to clean and tend to her bloody wound.

SIX






The woman was full of shame. Her pride had been stripped from her bit by bit. Six was focused on the pain and controlling her short breaths. Her lungs stopped hurting after a little bit. Though, when his body rested against hers the girl opened her eyes and looked to him. Six flinched as his tongue touched her bloody wound but his touch soothed her after a little while. The black and white behemoth sighed lightly and let him speak. A smile itched at the end of each lip as she gave into his sweet words. The woman was still hurt but he made her feel slightly better. I hope.. The wheeze was still heard with each word but it got better with time. He then spoke to her once more, giving her more of an urge to smile. Six lifted her head from the mud and extended her tongue to his neck. She gently kissed his scruff before flopping back down into the mud. "Usually, I would fight to the death.." The two toned girl sighed. "Ever since I got injured in the storm I have been weak. If I cannot last in a spar then how am I suppose to last in a challenge?" The girl knew she had fighting skills, but the cripple was eating at her. Six stared at him softly, her eyes full of shame.

He sighed as words of unconfidence still streamed from the girls mouth. The boy lifted his head from his work again, only this time finishing completely. He rested his head on her shoulder and allowed a grin to play amongst his maw. Aldoro knew she could do it. He was rooting for her, cheering her on. He couldn't just watch his friend give up once she had lost one spar. The man moved his tail around so that it seemed to cradle around her. He continued to smile right before whispering, "Even if you are weak, that alpha of the Amenti pack is weaker." His smile slowly crept into a grin. "But you aren't weak. You are strong. You are beautiful. And you, most of the time, are confident. Just have faith m'dear." His voice sounded almost flirty like- but no. He was trying to sound playful, not dull. Aldoro licked at her ear kindly and waited for her hopefully confident reaction.

With rain pouring down and mud all over them the scene was messy yet cute. Six gazed at him with those wide violet eyes, unblinking. He leaned on her, his head rested on her shoulder. She leaned in and licked his muzzle, another kiss. He began to speak and a snicker was heard. "The Red King is undefeated.." She watched as his smile turned into a lovely grin. Sweet nothings fell from his mouth and she smiled even more. "I never wanted anyone to see me like this. Ecspeccially not the man I fancy." Her tail swayed over his as they cuddled in the mud. Her eyes swept over the mucky landscape. They shifted back to his bi-colored optics quickly. She laid there in silence for a few more moments. A few gentle words escaped her mouth, "Thank you, Aldoro." The smile returned to her inky lips.

The rain and mud was not only disturbing her, but him as well. It was hard to speak with rain pounding all over his face, and mud near his eyes and mouth. But despite the disturbence of the wet and muddy terrain...the two still spoke in loving words and cuddled. It was adorable. Through the seemingly endless rain he could see those beautiful eyes of hers, and her lovely voice wrapping around him and seeming to choke him. His smile softened as she gave him another kiss, before her words echoed into his wide ears. Then more words, in which nearly made him laugh. "You were amazing there...and believe it or not, I fancy you to. When you mentioned a spar back there in the Col I thought I would collaspe, because I knew I would loose to some lovely woman that I fancy." The man sighed, but allowed his smile to remain across his maw. "It was a draw...I didn't win. If you would of kept going you could of beaten me by so much." He paused and leaned his head in, licking her muzzle almost the same way as she did to him. "When you stand up to challenge that King...when the time comes, don't give up. Don't drop down like you did this spar..." His words were stern, sincere. He didn't want her to loose against the Red King...he knew she would defeat him. She'd be such a good queen...he nodded softly to her last statement with a smile.

She did fancy him, quite a lot. It was only at the breaking point of a crush, but it was still more then what Six was use to. Her glistening eyes stared at him through the rain. She was sopping wet, it was a sight to see. The divine lady all mucked up, bleeding, and wet. Six watched as spoke some more. Her ears flicked and her lips curled, she blushed. Six nervously looked down then back up. "I feel like a yearling again." Those lovely lashes fluttered with elegance as she tried to stop herself from blushing. "I would not have. I could barely breath.." Her lungs still rumbled with pain with each breath but it was not nearly as bad as before. She listened to him speak again and the woman nodded. She would never give up. She would not submit. Ever. The woman was a fighter. If she won or lost, she would never give up in such a fight. In front of so many. "As long as you are there, I will not." The girl stood and stare down at him with a grins. Six pranced away for a few steps, her damaged limb stinging slighty. But she turned around and leaned down in the mud. The girl stared at him playfully, like a Dog. Her rear wiggled in the air before she charged him. The woman slithered to him that swatted mud his way. "Gotcha!"

The rain continued to pour on. Through the rain, he stared at her, a smile still curled onto his lips. He nuzzled her cheek lightly as he noticed her blushing, a few words quietly spiraling out of his maw. "You don't need to hide it from me, lovely..." His words were as soft and loving as he could manage. Then, with a warm huff, he continued in reply to her words. "Don't we all? I feel just...I feel like my whole life has expanded, ever since you walked into it." A soft chuckle slipped out from under his tongue after he finished. He shifted his position slightly as heavy mud rose up to his neck. It felt really uncomfortable...but it seemed almost invisible when he was wrapped around the woman. It was a few moments of silence until her voice, again, echoed into his large ears. He smiled and nodded. "I promise on my life...I will be there with you." His smile slipped into a playful grin before she slipped out from under him and backed up a few steps. He was suprised to see her bow into the mud like a dog would. But before he could stand, a wave of mud slopped over him. He shook his head frantically to get the mud away from his eyes, then, he would turn to the girl and quickly stand. Aldoro smirked and charged forward at the woman, halting infront of her and kicking up mud at her. "Hah!" He would bark playfully to her, his mud-covered tail wagging lightly behind him

The woman loved to be so close to a man who was not only interested in her pleasure. He told her not to hide her blushing which made her blush even more. He spoke to her in such a sweet way the woman could not deny the adorable nature of Aldoro. His lovely eyes and those deep tones. He soothed her by just looking at her. Maybe he would make for a lovely King. To stand by her side and guide her through rough spots. But, he could do that as her mate and guard as well. There were many options, the girl just did not want either of them to be hurt in the process. He promised her would be there when she made her pack/challenged. The luxurious babe leaped for joy internally as butterlfies invaded her belly. Oh she did feel like a pup again. They played in the mud together like children. She slopped mud all over him and he kicked a good amount onto her. The ebony spat some from her mouth before she moved towards him. Six tried to pounce and tackle the man to the ground. It was not an attack, it was just fun. Which she could get use to. "Im gonna win!"

He, like her, felt like a child again. Bounding and rolling into the mud and getting dirty without a care. Just for fun. The boy had really grown to adore this woman...even if she picked another male as king- he'd continue to like her. Adore her. It almost seemed that he had loved her...but it wasn't quite there yet. He didn't know though. It was such a hard thing to think about. But nonetheless, the man adored this woman, and it seemed he would forever. But now, a laugh would burst from his open maw as mud swept over the delicate woman. The laugh grew louder as he saw her spit mud out of her mouth. He knew most wolves didn't like the taste of dirt- so he felt a little sorry for her. That must of tasted nasty. Suddenly, his thoughts were cut off by the powering leap from Six. This knocked him to the ground and caused mud to splat all over his face again. He smirked and shook some of the mud away from his eyes, looking up at her and allowing his smirk to loosen into a smile. Aldoro pawed lightly at her face, leaving wet, muddy marks. He laughed again and awaited a reaction.

Six was not usually so free and jumpy. Usually she rounded up her men in lovely songs and flicks of hips. But, she played with him so freely. The lovely lady was covered in the brown mud. She was pretty sure every bit of her body was engulfed by it but in his cheery presence the girl did not care. She pounced on him with ease and pinned him to the ground. Her paws on either side of his head. Six leaned down and touched her nose to his, batting her lashes. The woman could look smashing even when covered in mud. She barely felt her wounds, yet they were not to bad in the first place. The black and white behemoth was then batted at with gross paws. Her face was splattered with the mucky substance. The soon to be Queen snorted and shook her head. "Evil!" The girl then leaned down and nipped at his neck, it would only be a pinch. She then got up and ran off a few steps. "I bet you can't catch me!" She spoke the words completely forgetting about her null lungs. The girl then sprinted off, mud flying all over.

The man noticed a dramatic change to this girl. The first day they met, he was as scared as ever. He thought he'd be chased off a cliff, killed. He remembered when he got lost in her beautiful purple gaze the first time he locked eyes with her...and yet, he was afraid of her. Now she was a leaping bundle of joy- even with those wounds he gave her. This is another thing he loved about this woman. Even with her ash-filled lungs she was willing to play. She was willing to show confidence. Willing to show him...she wouldn't give up.

Aldoro burst into laughter again as her single word rang out of her mouth. Oh, how he loved this. It was so adorable. One moment a spar, the next playtime in the mud. It was like nothing happened. After the light nip to his neck, the man burst to his paws and shook himself head to tail, mud splattering everywhere. He jumped forward after her, smirking playfully. "You better run!"
