[glow=black,2,300]Listening to the silenced words of the Drappa, Demon could not hide the smile that crossed onto her ebony maw. "Sister, it seems you are the only one that missed me..." she growled, giving no hint to her hidden heartbreak. "The one you speak of did not even reconise me as I crossed into your clearing..." Dropping her head down, she just about managed to hide her glossy tears from escaping. Pushing them away with the memories, she again smiled at the she wolf. "My past and future is of no matter," she continued, "As long as we remain friends, I will never part from this land again..." Returning the lick to her Drappa, she slowly nodded her head in respect. Despite their close relationship, she still felt the need to pay respects. After all, for what seemed an eternity she had been alone. Alone and lost with what had been just a blacked out, scribbled on heart. Wincing in pain, she remembered how the modern man as the humans had referred to, music went. Perking her ears high, she swore she could hear it; yet realized that it was recorded like peace in her mind. "I have travelled sister. Past mountains and towns, villiages and cities. I have seen much of the world that some of even the Balkar wouldnt of set foot in..." Drooping her tail, she could smell her only love on the wind. Shivering, she looked up at the white fae once more. "Tell me Tarkah... Where are your family? And what of mine?" She whispered, not informed that it seemed that both wolves were now both alone. Alone and empty as they had been once... as pups.[/glow]

The winds settled upon the bare arms of trees, resting for that moment bringing silence until they picked up once more and their shrill song carried on. Tarkah's gaze fell upon the ebon she wolf once more, and a smile was engraved onto her lips. The thought of finally having a dear friend back once again, mended her broken spirit, a bit of it anyways, but nothing could mend her broken heart now.
Tarkah frowned her tassel curling neatly around her left back leg. "Perhaps he does not recognize you, or perhaps he just could not take the impact? That I do not know of sister. For days I have been blinded by my own concience, unable to think up anything wise or have a clear mind. My spirit is failing me and I do not know how I can mend it." The ivory drappa spoke but suddenly she felt angry, and her hackles bristled. "It's all because of him" She spoke reffering to the red dragga. "He left me, did not say a word. Nor did he promise a return. Just left. May he be travelling the trails in heaven or making his way through the pathways with the hounds of hell, then so be it!" Tarkah growled her steeley grey talons scraping the icy layer. But still she could not hide her broken heart.
Tarkah paused for a second letting the breeze sweep through her thick winter's coat before continueing. "My pups, one dead, one left, one returned, one missing, one gone and one that stayed." Tarkah muttered. perhaps one day they would all return till then it was hopeless.
Tarkah looked upto Demon, "But yours, I only know of Sabre." Tarkah lowered her head in shame, "I am sorry sister, I did not put in more care for your pups, I should have though, should have. But..." The fae paused, "Markaz has been a good father I suspect for I see him quite a few times with Sabre." Tarkah spoke a small smile on her maw. Tarkah looked to Demon and chuckled, "But sister though we were alone when we were far apart. Now that you have returned, I do not need the company of shadows any more."

[glow=black,2,300]Demon shuddered. She had been so wrapped in her own selfish heartbreak, that she hadnt noticed Tarkah's own pain. Sighing, she blamed herself for the actions taken in the past. "Tarkah..." she replied feebly, "I should have been there for you... I should have never let you face it alone..." Pausing, her eyes flickered back towards where she had seen her love again after what seemed ages. "I am truly sorry... " Trailing away her words, she let her senses down and gave a small whine. Flicking her auds atop her head, she could hear the howls of the wolves in the other parts surrounding. Sighing, she wished that it had been different. Wished that her love would realized that despite her leave, the love remained. And most of all, she wished that despite her own breaking heart, her sister's heart could be mended. But she alone knew that no amount of friendship and care could do that. Only the family she once had could do so, but where and when would they return? No one knew, and no one seemed to care... no one except... Demon.[/glow]

Tarkah turned her gaze towards Demon and smiled warmly. "It is alright sister, the past is behind us now." Tarkah tried to sound reasurring, at least to reasure herself to be honest. The ivory fae pawed at the snow, making a neat pile. The fae then watched as a snow flake descended, like a feather on the breeze. "I guess life is like a snowflake, or a raindrop. You fall, until you reach the very bottom, but if you strive and move on you can reach the skies once more but if you don't you may be stuck forever. But there you fall again, and you must pick yourself up once more." Tarkah spoke, starring at nothingness.
Tarkah inhaled deeply, savouring for once the fresh smell of th winter air, never had it cleared her mind so. "Demon, it seems as if we will have a clean slate to work with, if we can push away our past escapades." She said with a light chuckle. But could shepush away her family tieds, and nightmarish events. Tarkah did not know but she knew she had to try, for Demon for her pack and most of all for herself.

[glow=black,2,300]The fae smiled at her sister. Although her words were seemingly convincing, Demon couldn't misplace the look in the white she wolf's eyes. Chuckling lightly, she nuzzled the snowy wolf playfully. "Don't try and cover things from me Tarkah. Just because I haven't been here a while, doesn't mean I know when you are upset or something..." Pausing, she shifted onto her haunches and watched the Drappa carefully. "I know you wouldn't be able to forget that easily... I know you too well. But, I have a simple solution for your loneliness...." Grinning deviously, a mischevious thought surpassed into the depths of the ebony beasts mind. Looking at her sister with a misleading smile, she let out a small laugh. "So, Tarkah.." breezed Demon finally, letting the thought pass through another winding corridor in one wrinkle in her brain. "Fancy going on a walk?" Winking, she flicked her tassle playfully, and watched with a cheeky smile. Knowing that Tarkah wouldn't be able to guess the goings-on in her mind, she kept the smile there, secretly planning, plotting and knowing her next moves.[/glow]

Ivory tassel wavered, steel grey talons sweeping over the thin carpet of snow as her golden hues fixated on the figure of Demon. Her words were wise and they uncovered the viel over Tarkah. She gave a loose grin, "Perhaps you are right sister. I cannot lie to you nor can i hide many things from you, but at least I can lie to myself?" Tarkah spoke her ebon auds flickering as she saw an idea unweave in the cavarn depths of the demoness's mind.
Tarkah smirked slinking upto the ebon femmora. Tarkah eyed her, a sense of curiosity spanning as she wondered what plot she was conveying. Lfting herself up from her sit she padded after Demon. Head positioned straight as her paws moved.
Within a few strides Tarkah caught up and padded parallel to Demon. Crown turned, focusing on her facade. "So what seems to be brewing in your mind now?" she spoke unaware of what Demon was actually planning

[glow=black,2,300] Grinning, she listened to Tarkah's words. "Ah," she whispered knowingly, "If I told you everything, there would be no surprises in the world..." Smiling sweetly, she winked at her best friend, and flicked her tail playfully. "So, you coming for a walk or is this surprise never going to be shown?" Grinning, her mind wandered for a second. She remembered every detail of what she wanted to show Tarkah. She had found it on her travels back to the Valley. The look of it reminded her of Tarkah and her family so clearly that she had even cried when she watched it. Shaking away the memories before the tears of memories flowed again, she looked longingly at the Drappa and waited for the answers, hoping that they were the ones she wanted to hear this time.

Tarkah grinned as she walked after Demon. Tarkah laughed and raised an eyebrow. "oooh a surprise how exciting" Tarkah said in a singsong tone. Her tail swished as she ran to catch up with Demon.
Curiosity swirled amidst Tarkah wondering what the ebon hued she wolf had instore for her. Paws shifting she barked, "Course I'm coming, when have I not followed you in any of our adventures" Tarkah chuckled. The moment reminded her of those days. Of careless freedom. And the first adventure, or what Tarkah liked to call it, they had. It was that cave they had so suddenly found, hidden behind a waterfall. Tarkah could still remember it like yesturday. How then they had spoke and dreamed about what their future was to be like. Tarkah missed those days. It was funny but she wanted to be a pup again she wanted to relive those days.
Finally pulling herself away from her strand of thought Tarkah nodded and nudged Demon jumping up a few inches of the ground and nipping at her sister's ear., "Alright then lets go! Let's go!" she barked and ran a few strides infront of Demon.

[glow=black,2,300] Walking Steadily, the she wolf kept her eyes forward. Each paw hit the ground in unison, light plues of frozen breath parting from her mouth. Grinning slowly as thoughts surpassed her complexed mind, she occasionally glanced at the she wolf. "Follow, and stay silent..." growled the she wolf; her tone raspy and quiet. She was treading through foreign terrain now. They had left the Koran borders unknowingly. Feeling her heart pounding in her chest, she felt her hackles rise slightly. It felt as though someone was watching. Sneering at her own foolishness, she remembered the tiny fact that no one came out onto this land until nightfall. Looking up at the sky, she could see the sun slowly falling. Sunset was hastily coming upon them. Glancing to the left she saw a steep looking hill. Swiftly turning direction towards it, she did not look to see if Tarkah would follow. Knowing her sister too well, she knew that her curiousity would overwhelm. Taking fast and carefree steps up the hill, she was soon upon the ledge of it. Sitting almost immediantly, she began to catch her breath, auds up and ready for the signalling sound of what was next to come. [/glow]

Tarkah follwed her sister obidiently her ivori tassel swishing delicatly as her paws moved. Steadily and stelthily, kicking around the last remnants of snow.
She perked up noticing now that the Koran lands were far behind them now. Auds prickled listening for the soft twitterings of spring sparrows but none came as of yet or so it seemed. It was rather quiet and Tarkah grew curious. What was it that Demon wanted to show her? Tarkah cocked her head ready for speech to plague the silence but before words could escape her lips Demon turned telling her to hush. Tarkahh opened her maw to protest or rather to question why but let her lips slowly meld back into its former shape.
So she followed noticing that the land had begun to rise, begining to clomb up a hill. Tarkah kept on padding when she paused. Loooking she watched as Demon turned. Tarkah cocked her head in inquiry but shrugged. With a couple of strides Tarkah banked and slid back up, walking by Demons side, parallel with her ebony sister.

[glow=black,2,300] Seeing Tarkah's ivory pelt shimmer on the ledge top, as she sat casually without sound; the she wolf gave a low growl. Departing down onto the ground, she laid comfortably on the earth. Tassle flickered lightly, the peaceful karma around the surrounding terrain even able to calm the mind of Demon. Breathing deeply, she looked up at Tarkah, and smiled. Parting her ebony maw, she nodded as she spoke; her tone light and whispy- as though not wanting to break the calm in the atmosphere. "Come," she whispered, "lie down; we have a small wait until it shows itself..." Her tone was somewhat mysterious, yet also filled with that same mischeivious bark she had possessed since she was a mere cub. Grinning, she slowly returned her sights to the horizon, staring thoughtfully out towards the far-off lands. The first signs of a new-born spring shown in the sunset; the first rays of warmth. The firsts songs of the birds. The first bursts of orange mixtures. And, the firsts buds of a repairing friendship. All was rebuilding; even Demon's heart was slowly mending. Incredible. [/glow]

Tarkah padded on, and stopped when Demon had. She cocked her head. The atmosphere though ginving her a calm feeling, one that was worth savouring. Perhaps it were of the spring dust in the air thst made the lera all around buzzing with a loopyness. Tarkah watched silently as Demon slid down onto her belly from the ridge they were atop. With a grin Tarkah wagged her tail, the puppynedd returning to her.
With keen eyes she watched Demon from above when her low bark tolded her to follow. With a puppish smile Tarkah brought her two front paws forward and slid down aswell hitting the ground with a light thump.
Shakign out her fur she inched forward towards Demon giving her a quick nuzzle. Tail flickered and she leaned herself forward, her gaze directed to the horizon aswell. Keen ears pricked. Silence, except the faint twitterings of songbirds in the distant forests.
Tarkah cocked her head, "What are we looking for though?" Tarkah inquired lying beside the ebon femmora. itself? Tarkah thought silently. What on earth did her sister mean? Tarkah opened her maw to speak but shut it. Auds twitched as she waited but Tarkah also noticed somthing new. She gazed into Demon's orbs. They glittered as if they were on fire and she seemed happy. Sotmhing that Tarkah had always loved to see on her sister.

[glow=black,2,300] Demon chuckled. "We are looking within the hearts of the Gods," replied the she wolf quietly; all the darkness and hatred suddenly faded. The calm, and collected female just kept her gaze towards the horizon. Flicking her tail, her pupils suddenly froze on a particular part of the sky. Leaning forward, she let her tassle wag furiously, the sky turning blacker and darker with each minute. Looking over to Tarkah, she stood on her paws and let her hassles flinch slightly. Nodding with a sly smirk on her maw, she parted her maw and spoke, "Watch the darkness and be entranced by its beauty..." Returning into pure silence, the first sliver of green appeared in the sky; the first streak of pink, and the light breeze of the upcoming wonders of the Valley. [/glow]

Tarkah cocked her head in confusion to what Demon had addressed but instead of askign anymore questions, though she yearned to, Tarkah brought her directed gaze towards the evening sky.
Slowly but surely the sky began to dim as the great sun sank beneath the skyline and out of site. Darkness huggign the landscape tightly as the moon glowed faint in the distance. Tongith it looked far away. Tarkah still gazed at the horizon seeing nothing yet. Tarkah turned to Demon eyeign her. She was so inenet on watchign the skies. As if her sockets were glued to the screen.
Tarkah opened her maw to speak, "Demon I don't-" Tarkah began to question when a flash caught her eye. THe ivory wolf turned to see what it was. She had caught a wave of green whispy light, a ribbon of colour in the sky. And then it dissappeared but in another blink pink replaced it and there above it flashed as it began to take up half the sky. Tarkah looked jaw dropping low as she watched the colours lighting up but then dissapearing before changing itno another hue. The night sky was on fire. The delicate movment of the ribbon looked like a blazing candle, its flame swaying back and forth with the current of the breeze.
Tarkah turned to Demon, "Sister, what is this?" she said in total awe.

[glow=black,2,300] Smiling at the awe in the Drappa's tone, Demon too suddenly felt amazed by her find. "This..." she replied lightly, "sister, is where I found..." she paused, and shook her head. A voice had somewhat triggered a realization. "Nothing sister, forget I mentioned it.." Keeping her farcade straight, more lights appeared. First blue. Then orange. Then purple. More and more came after that, all the colors of the rainbow as such. Letting her ebony tassle flicker with enjoyment, she could feel the curiousity burning in the atmosphere. It overwhelmed the once present awe, and it amused Demon greatly. Looking at Tarkah from the corner of her eye, she smirked secretly as more lights sparked up from no where and seemed to float in the skies. Side to side. Up and down; continuious movement. "Its beautiful isnt it sister? The lights of something better..." [/glow]
