››› V.enery Snare - [ Naxx, Zvezde & Prey ]

[;; ˇForsαkeη! ;;]

Fool me once, shame on you... Oseles growled at her reflection with a short grunt before throwing herself into the stream, the water splashing heavily around her. The liquid slowly coated over her spine, being deeper then she had anticipated and slowly swam a few feet ahead to touch bank once more. Her long claws scraping the muddy bank some, leaving three inch deep engravings on the dirt as she heaved her frame out, water slowly flowing down her fur and splashing back onto the river. Taking a few steps onto the bank, Ose looked upwards before pinning her small round ears and shaking her frame out, starting from her hips up her spine to her shoulders and neck. This action sent countless droplets off water from her now slick fur. A heavy grin on the female's face.

Looking back some she flicked her ears forward and then plodded ahead, her paws taking her in a stumpy stride ahead, fur swaying side to side. She was ever curious, especially now that she had gotten ahead of her brother Naxx. Nose slowly crinkled she looked about before halting, the wind shifting around her. Head raised, poised in a decent angle upon her shoulders as she stood there for a long time, the wind slightly ruffling the thicker guard furs along her ribcage and sides, acting like webbed fingers on her skin. A short, dim dew-like substance dripped from her nose as she huffed and then looked ahead. Growling slowly she pinned her shoulders down, tail slapping her quarters every now and then before she turned. Eyes were firmly narrowed with determination as a deadly growl left her thick throat, muscles bracing as she crouched her front half down, back end raised in the air, tail stiff.

In the moment's notice she suddenly lunged forward, running back the way she came, but finding another pass to the stream. Her breath was held for some moments as she charged herself up for some sort of epic leap of faith or some sort. Her momentum wasn't so bad as she threw herself over the muddy bank, forelegs extended outwards waiting to grasp the other side. Now the landing wasn't perfect, with a loud thud as she slipped on the muddy side. "Ung!" She groaned before kicking herself up from there and racing onward, the thick scent of her brother was wafting up her nares as a slow smirk spread over her muzzle. Grunting some she busted through the brushes.

Her lower contact body rammed right into Naxx's, sending both tumbling back some as she felt his warmness consume her. She made a short, pur-like sound and thrusted her snout into his neck, eyes firmly shut. "Naxxx" Oseles whispered softly before rubbing her skull against the cup of his throat, not letting him stand as she used her smaller weight to keep him pinned as best she could. From her siblings, Naxx had to be her favorite, one that was adventurous like her, and he was the largest of them all, walking in Tango's footsteps of being large. She wasn't physically that different from them, but she had the nastiest temper, save for her brother. It was around him that she actually held some attachment to, and if she ever had to be submissive it would be to Naxx, although sometimes she skip the chance to toggle him down some notches just for the hell of it.

[Naxx]

It never ended, the hunger. It was always a search for food, a hunger that was never satisfied, a thirst that was never quenched, a battle of wits, and yearning understanding. For Naxx, it was needless to say the, he was a large male, and truth be told, alot had to do with his diet, and what he took into himself. His one good eye a dark brown, the other, nothing but permanently closed lid that would forever remind him of the day their mother had given her life for himself and his brothers and sisters.

He had since moved on, his body remembering that scar, remembering the face ofthat wolf as he gazed directly into his eyes, knowingfull well that that wolf, was the one who murdered his mother, and left them all to die.

He gathered his surroundings, was taking a moment to do some self-grooming in the shades of the trees, the consistant trickling of the waters reflectingthe sunlight to various plants as he let out various grunts befor hearing a loud noise somewhere beyond the trees.

His head shot up with a snort and a growl as he scanned the hedges, his claws tensed, his ears went forward, his alone time interrupted (lol) he uncurled himself and took to his paws, standing up on his rear legs, forelegs hanging low against his thigh, before he heard the noise again. He turned his neck to the right, before the bushes exploded open and Oseles came bursting out like a bullet, slamming directly into him and knocking him on his back with him errupting in a snarl. Placing her nose along the side of his neck he rose a paw to playfully strike his oponent in side of the face, "Naxxx" he heard his sister whisper, as she rubbed her her skull against him, he parted his jaws and moved to take her ear into his mouth, a low growl of play as he nipped at her shoulder, throwing his paw forward as he rolled his tail upward, his hindlegs flailing. "What you running into me for!?" he said as he tired to roll back onto hi slegs.

[;; ˇForsαkeη! ;;]

Oseles was roughly almost full grown, a lean 30 pounds spilling the larger male over was ever evident. A coy grin on her facial expressions as she buried her snout deep into his neck, his darker, thicker fur tracing along her jawline and neck. Her body was warm with his before he said something, her ears slowly going frontal on her hard skull. "What you running into me for!?" Naxx growled out playfully, his oblong paw twarping her in the face some, making her give a yowl in response, and try to play bite his pads. Her tail would wag eagerly before she purred to him and smiled. "Putting my favorite brother in place." She said with a definite joke before her nose rub along his forehead.

Oseles felt Naxx open his jaws before gently nibbling on her ear, the very motion making her stiffen up, forepaws pressing against his chest since he was still rolled onto his belly. Their fur colors were almost identical, save for his being three shades darker then hers. She bore a much whiter splashed chest then his at this moment in time. Lightly tapping her hocks with her tail she met his nips with her own, grasping his lower throat slab between her teeth. She could feel his flesh to her tongue and gums but didn't bite any harder, only tugged slowly, teasing him in a sibling way before letting his fur go. Oseles would look up at Naxx with a playful, cheeky smile on her feminine face before she leaned up and licked his whiskers.

A stiff motion that tapped her thigh as Naxx tried to get back up made her attention move elsewhere now. It had touched along her inner thigh, awakening common female behaviors, her ears slowly curling back some with a gentle chuff, her lips puffing and then deflating. Cocking a brow, she leaned her hips up, back paws pushing on the ground before her eyes widened curiously, a clearly 'touched' part of her brother had been previously aroused. Licking her lips she looked back to him and then to the region between his furry thighs until she slowly crawled off him. Her tail kept wiggling as she turned and faced him, walking right up behind him and pushing her snout against the warm organ and then looking directly at her brother, curious.

[Ayvertine]

Zvezde had long since removed herself from the position of almost being mounted, and from the others that had attempted to get way with her, mate - poke - hug. It was all just simply to much for the female. Such interaction had never been had before and made her crazieness even more prominant then ever before. Today, was probablly going to be a different, but. Similar day. As she parted her jaws of death to take a branch into her mouth and tug on it she had least expected what was going to come into play next.

As she pulled, it snapped, as it snapped she fell. Not even five feet, and landing with a thud on the ground she grumbled. That tree is so mean, It booted me right out of the tree!No, it didn't you retard. You did it to yourself, you stupid, clumsy female a fight with herself, hillarious - right? She didn't think so. She hated her other self and wished that it would go and leave her alone. I am not stupid, you are stupid.I am anything but stupid, stupid.

She'd been unaware of her surroundings, thus making it obvious she hadn't the slightest idea that one of the males, and wolv pups from the recent days had been in the same area as she. She wiggled on her back a little in attempts to roll onto her belly. When she got that far she became distracted once more, digging her nose into the snow she started to crawl, pulling herself forwards in a playful manner, coos and squeals eminated from her vocals once more as she kept her eyes closed.

[Naxx]

His nerves became sharp like daggers as she continued to poke him with her nose, along the length of his neck and throughout the width and length of his body as he continued to finish his groom, but it was useless.

The fact that he had been brought down by another female was more of a peeve to him, and more or less, so too was her response. He took pleasure in her yowl, it landing in his ears as he hit his mark. Where was Cody? The thing that he used to deal his fits of terror upon, to pull his tail, and to rip his ears to shreads! But things considered, what he had before him was more than enough to do the job. But the stomach was rumbling again, and therefore, in between the fits of play, they'd have to find food.

"Putting my favorite brother in place." she had answered him, his open mouth parted into a mere jaw drop as he glared at her with a more pout, before shoving his forelegs forward to ease her off of him.

It was by then that he had taken her ear into his mouth and began to pull the thing to the limits that it would allow for him in order to not hurt her, sensations began to run through hs body that he was not yet familure with, a strange feeling of satisfaction as he became aware of the fact that he was still aroused by his own grooming. And that's when he began to become aware of the feeling that he was being pulled at, his senses reprimended him to respond with force, to do his own pulling, to bite her and pull her flesh aswell, but with ten times the effort!

When she let go, that's when he made his shot, bringing around his left foreleg, he threw it forward and around, hoping to strike his sister with a knock-out swing, a play snarl errupting from his throat as it built up in vibe, -in the effort, his already stiff apendage struckthe inner most portion of her thighs, he too became suddenly aware of a great sensation that he wasn't familure with, a male sensation.

When she crawled off of him and tried to further inspect his man-thing, he grunted, rolling over and shaking himself out, before approaching a nearby bush and tiltes his hindquarters off to the right, bringing just the ankel of his left leg up and spraid the bush.

THWACK

Naxx turned his head in a deep throated snarl as he stood up slightly one his rear legs, his right foreleg prepped to deal a deadly blow to the intruder and protect his sister, when he realized who it was. That tree is so mean. It booted me right out of the tree!" -Naxx lowered hs leg, reminding himself that it was only Zvezde, the female that his father brought home when his mother was still alive.

"I am not stupid, you are stupid." Of course, at that time, Naxx had thought that she was actually talking to him, and he felt his ears go to the rear in perterbation, thinking that she had just insulted him.

"Are you okay?" Naxx asked as he was firmly reminded that she bore the scent of his father, and thus, making her a member of the pod, and therefore, one with the family.

When she began to crawl about the snow, digging her nose into it, and crawling, her little squeals and sounds were beyond what he would consider the sounds that an adult would make, Naxx shot an estranged glance to his sister, lifting a single eye brow, before turnig his head to face her. "Just... how many times did that tree boot you out of it?" Naxx asked her as he walked up to her, looking down at the female who was about to run into him.

[WolfSilver]

Wild Ivy.

Dirt and grit harassed my slender limbs as I danced across the cold..Hard ground.

I knew I was in a wrong place..I knew something, Anything could go wrong. The scents and smells confused me. It was a never ending haze and labyrinth I couldn't untangle. Which way was up? Which was down? I was confused... Right and left seemed to have switched places... The smell...One that must be graced with an unknown name... Brought my mind to the brink of insanity.

I felt a need...An urge.. A must to run. And run I did...Scaring birds from the undergrowth, Leaping over obstacles. One smell made my heart race..It made it run. Never stopping for breath as I carried on my nameless tirade. My vision was red... My legs 'a blur. I couldn't stop. The smell wouldn't let me....

And that's the moment I placed it....Fear. Chains of ice wrapping around my neck and choking until I couldn't breath...The smell was wolverine...

The chains were the hands of FEAR.

[Xulvic]

Darwin jumped from his sleep as a mound of dirt hit his snout. His face contorted in rage. Something had walked on his den! His home. He got up, a snarl on his long face. He growled as he picked up the disgusting smell of his distant cousins - wolverine. He spotted the crack on the roof of his den, the wolverine had ruined it. He would have to abandon this den and find a new one for this den was no longer safe. Now this put Darwin is a rage, his eyes coated over in blood lust and his muscles tensed. He smelt the female wolverine and knew it had been her that had murdered his beloved home and now he was going to murder her.

He lumbered out of his den quickly, he looked side to side for the intruder, his lips were pulled back in a fierce snarl, baring his incredibly sharp and long teeth. One look and he saw her, the female that had killed his den. His instinct took over as his home collapsed seconds after he had spotted her. His gaze fogged over, he was pissed. He loud out a blood curling snarl and flexed his limbs. He targeted himself and charged towards the female wolverine, he ignore the others - all he wanted was the females blood to coat his paws.

Darwin opened his mouth, reading to attack the young wolverine. His mind eye played out the kill: pin her, choke her then rip her jugular from her pulsing throat then revel as her warm blood seeped between his toes. He was only a few tail lengths behind he as he leapt, preparing for the kill, aiming for the wolverines soft, tender throat.

[;; ˇForsαkeη! ;;]

He had a strange scent that was triggering something in her unmatured womanly parts. Looking down between her legs curiously, taking her eyes of her larger brother. "Drats.." She said with a squealed laugh and then looked back up to him when he made a grunt, rolling over and shaking her off his lower frame. Growling, she sprawled her front legs out, thudding against the ground firmly, her back legs quickly following as she curled sideways, butting her head against his now upright hip. He then got up and moved towards some low brushes and then lifted his rear paw, marking the bush, marking it as his own, along with the close residents. Oseles simply chuckled before curving her spine down, pressing her toosh against the snowed in ground at her feet, sitting comfortably, a comical expression on her young face.

Oseles suddenly looked up to the loud thud, her eyes narrowed before her brother bounced up to investigate. Making short clipping sounds she followed him, ears flat against her back, breaking the natural pelt of puffed up fur. "Be car-" She barely said before he was standing over another wolverine, slightly older and larger then herself. Her caramel eyes slowly widened before she looked up to see the claw marks from where this wolverine had been and then to where she laid now, not taking more then a mere second for her to remember the scent. It was Zvezde, a female her father Tango had allowed into the family-knit pod. Her tie-like tail slowly slapped against her haunches some as a wicked smirk took up the facial features of Oseles face, loving to play along with her.

"That stupid tree... we should kill it huh Zve?" Oseles dropped her shoulders down, giving small playful growls to Zvezde as if enticing her to join her in a rampaging massacre of the tree as if it were some violent crusade. Giggling she watched the female roll about on her side and then dig her nose into the soft white snow. The sounds she made seemed youthful and full of all those things considered happy. "Happy happy joy joy?" Oseles asked Naxx as they both looked down at the other female. Getting an idea, Ose headed over to the torn branch and worked her jaws around it, wrenching it from the snow and dragging it over to where Zvezde wiggled about. "Here!" She pipped in, her tail curled upwards some before something made her turn.

It was white, black, stripped and had a nasty temper. Only a few feet away came a leaping creature, it's fangs exposed as he aimed to reach her. He was perhaps, somewhat smaller then her, and loads heavier but from that angle he seemed much much larger. Growling, Oseles was tempted to whirl about and engange in a battle that was too stacked against her. He was an adult, mature US badger, and she was still a mature wolverine, one holding wisdom, the other tenacity. Although she was wired to attack, something made her turn and bolt, legs spring out from her hips as she gave chase, her tail curled. Stress was building up since she had lost sight of her brother now, knowing he was somewhere behind, and now she had some enraged fat thing after her.

"Get away!!" She snarled, her hip muscles constricting, which thus released a thick, lucid scent, more like stinging stench right into the badgers face. He was too close to dodge it, and the smell was forced up his nares thanks to the direction they were running and his perfect and unfortunate placement. The stress had mounted and this wolverine used one of her strongest tactics, that putrid smell that was acidic, and poisonous of too much of it was inhaled.

[Ayvertine]

The moment someone had realized she had fallen, had become the very moment she was invaded. These people! Who were they, why did they always seem to show up where ever she was...were they STALKING her? Great. More for her to talk outloud to and with herself.

And so...it began

are you okay? he asked, wasn't that the same thing sort of he asked last time? No. It wasn't, he asked who she was and she had never told. Least, she never remembered telling them who she was. I am okay. Yes, yes. Quite right! Noggins all straight and squared, mhm she said to him, but following her words come her other side. (a short cakle)You? Right? HA! you aren't alright you'll never be all right you..crazy hag. she was rude, why was she so rude; to herself of all people this other her was never nice and it had made her very sad.

Their father had taken her, in the manner in which she had been welcome into their knit family - however she wasn't quite sure that she wanted to be apart of it. After what he had attempted to do.

More words were spoken, she blinked and studied the words very closely. That stupid tree... we should kill it huh Zve?, her jaw parted open as she just stared at the other female almost as if she had a stupid moment, she turned her head from her to look at that tree. Kill? Kill? Yes. Ah! It should die, its never so nice - its like a big grump headyou sound like your a child you idiot - like they really want to see you like this? I want out. she said first to the younger female then to herself before shaking her head.

Happy happy joy joy?..................here! this female was still going on - joining Zve's crazy antics. Huzzah! she chittered and sauntered over twords the direction of the other, before watching what she was doing. She plopped to her rump and slapped her paws over her snout and all that was heard was ...-gasp- her claws wrapped around what had been brought to her and she began to claw at it with a smile.

It was then, in this moment that everything that was fun had been ruined - that...that thing had done it. It wasn't even happy its rampat actions was enough to make the hairs on Zvezdes nape rise with detest, before she stood by Ose and let out a fowl growl. She'd never fought before, then again she had never needed too; now wasn't so different from those times but this one seemed direct on its path.

[Naxx]

Marking various bushes, relieving the sense of fullness that had overcome his bladder, overhearing tid-bits of a conversation that was taking place behind him between his sister and Zvezde.

She was a strange one, indeed. Why his father had taken her into the pod was something that Naxx and his other siblings could never figure out as he took a moment to sniff around, adhering to his curious instincts as he glanced over his shoulder, "I am okay. Yes, yes. Quite right! Noggin's all straight and squared, mhm." -lifting a single brow in response, he looked her over, making sure that there were no obvious injuries or anything that was broken.

"That stupid tree... we should kill it, huh Zve?" Naxx turned his eyes to gaze upon Oseles, a thought bouncing in his head that made him become aware of the fact that perhaps, his sister had now become illusional.

So that was it, the girls were playing and Naxx had been left to babysit them. What had turned from a hunting trip had become a daycare. His pride went down the drain and he wondered if perhaps his father and the others were having any better luck with their hunt. Why couldn't he go hunting with his brothers? -How'd he get stuck with these two nut cases?

He had turned around for just a mere second, following a scent that had encroached him, the scent of meat that he had began to understand as the source of food for him and his family, the very same scent of the food that his mother brought to him before the wolves had brutily murdered before his eyes, and thus, taking his right eye in the heat of their onslaught.

He had heard a shreek, and when he turned, he could only see the black and white blure as it moved through the open air at the speed of light and -and despite the blur that had been used to conceal itself, Naxx could very well see the fangs that it bore, and that they were approaching his sister.

At once he whirled, a snarl tearing from his throat in a heaping rush as he felt his shoulders grow stiff, his hind legs snap to attention as his hips bubbled with steam and blood as he felt his ears go flat in an instinctual will to protect the females.

With that, his legs sprang into action and he came bounding out of the line of bushes, the turning left and right before locating the transgressor, the badger that his kind were known to never get along with. "Oh hell..." he gasped before he felt his legs quiver, his tail went up, his flanks writhed, a snarl growing louder before he spotted Zvezde once more. "Get away!"

Again he heard his sister screech, and at once, the bond that they had all been born with was awakened, the instinct to protect his little sister became more than alive within him as he charged in the very direction that his instincts had told him, whirling right, he too followed their trail, his forelegs went out, his hindlegs went in between, however, unlike the nose and eyes of the badger, Naxx -himself, was unphased by the threat-deterent gases of his sister as she ran with every intent of her life. -And Naxx used it to his advantage, it was quite clear that the mere scent of the gas would slow the badger down considerably, give his sister time to flee -leaving him with the brute to deal the blow that he rightfully deserved. No one touched his sister and got away with it, and carefully planned efforts, the math summed up quickly in his head, the angels, the projections, the path, he lunged for his attack, his hindlegs jetting him off the ground and throwing himself forward and into the Badger's path, rolling onto his side mid-leap, he threw forward his left forepaw, tensions in the muscles pushing his claws from their leathery sheaths and into a deadly serated hook, -his target? -The badgers breast, -withing lay quite the valuable muscle group that if incapacitated, -would life the threat status off his opponent.

Darwin jumped heavily over logs that barreled in his way. His breathing was steady but slow as he per sued the female wolverine that has killed, murdered his one and only home! Uh she was not going to get away with this he vowed to himself. His large paws hit the ground in large bounding thumps, squishing plants to mush and stems. His beady black eyes zeroed in on his prey, he let her sweet earthy scent drift towards him. He gasped as the female released her gas right in his nostrils. His eyes watered in disgust - what a, a animal! A barbaric pig. He gagged as the scent ran down his throat, it tasted as if she had shat in his mouth! He was deeply abashed as he reched, dry heaving. His man pride had been squished and hurt but he had to time to mourn for he then spotted the brown flash of snarling fur and sinew.

Darwin let out a savage howl as he spotted the brutish brown male wolverine. His body was large and his teeth and claws savagely sharp. Darwin saw the cold fire in the males eyes, protecting his kin. Darwin snorted and veered sharply to meet the wolverines challenge. His hungry eyes narrowed to cold slits as he spotted the creature launching towards his cheast, with surprise Darwin let out a bark and turned so that the attack would land on his right shoulder or even his ribs, and not his cheast where all his vitial organs and veins were. Darwin would not die a coward but he would not die a fool neither. It was either certain death or a fight to the death.

Darwin knew the one and only answer. He stood his ground and faced the wolverine like a true badger. Strong, fearless and fierce. He jumped, still aiming for the brute to tear his shoulder to shreds, but Darwin raised his claws ready to launch a lethal blow to the wolverines ribs - question was -would his aim succeed?

[;; ˇForsαkeη! ;;]

The young female kept running as she started to hear the nasty creature slowed down his pace, half blinded by the scent determent. Glancing back, the furred female slowly stopped as she heard a snarl given away from her brother, knowing he had confronted the badger. Huffing heavily she B-lined right towards Zve with a stout whine before puffing up her chest. It was inspiring to see her brother defend her. It wouldn't strike her yet, not if Naxx could help it. For now she looked up at Zve and then back to Naxx and the badger as her muscles trembled with anxiety and anticipation. She'd die if her brother got hurt, especially by such a creature as a badger. "It's.. 3 vs 1.." Ose whispered to the female besides her before narrowing her eyes some.

It was hard for her to control the instinct of fighting, knowing very well that it would be a match for the history books. But Oseles also knew the passion her beloved brother held and didn't want to cross his path. Growling and making short snaps with her muzzle, the female flicked her tail sideways as she pounced off to the side and started to circle the fighting males, one older, one younger. Her eyes were narrowed, clawed paws grasping the snow slightly as she lurched sideways, as if lunging off every time the boys would snarl. She didn't keep a fixated glare on them, looking up to Zve every once in a while before she continued to circle them. It clearly was getting harder and harder for her to not jump into the fight, but for the sake of her brother she kept herself at bay, grinding her teeth slowly.

(Low Muse Sorry! )

[Ayvertine]

Zvezde had listened to the younger one as she come back beside her whispering that it had been Three against One, she simply shook her head and without warning fell backwards. She let out a snort before rolling to her belly and moving in a direction in which she could watch both Naxx, and the other male sort out their battle. Tail flicking from side to side as her eyes narrowed into a glare, Oh, a fight. A fight. Gedum! she whispered on out to naxx her chocolate peepers locking on the male, then onto Ose. She didn't exactly know quite what to do. It had been a long while since she had fought - but. Even more so. These two other wolv's... she hadn't even said she'd join their pod, but they had already thought her to be part of it? She much liked her solo life. Atleast..there nobody had to learn how to understand her motion, or the way she acted to certain actions.

Already, one thing was for certain she was part...of the pod. Just a member that kept her distance from them, avoiding the leader as best she could. Zve had a different way of thinking, she guessed. As it had seemed that she wasn't like the rest.

Her fixtation went back on the male as she dug her nose into the snow and pretended to spy (pretty useless? I think so) and let out random squeals and growls as she waited for the sprawl to begin. Take em down, roll em...squish em...fix em... Shut up, your so stupid. Let them fight in silence her other half bashed as her rounded ears dropped to her skull and she looked to naxx then back to the badger, then to ose again waiting to see if she'd intervene or allow her brother to fight for her.

[ Lame. ass. post. ]

[Naxx]

Before his own eyes, he watched as the fumes of his sister slowed down the badger's run, with that he was able to catch up and make his attack, using the fumes of his sister to create a deversion and thward him from the real danger... and that was nothing less than a charging male full of testosterone, an instinct to protect his territory, and the intent to kill whatever it was that had threatened his own blood.

There were no words exchanged, only snarls, snaps, and barks, his snarl ran deep and it ran loud along his throat, there was no hesitation in his tone, there never would be. He'd kill the badger if he had to, or force it to run in fear of his own life.

No one threatened his sister and got away with it unscathed. It was the same thing with any of his family, brothers included. Everything he had done, from chasing down the wolverine to the drive to deliver an aweful puniishment had come from the deeps of his character, The prod of life that had been sleeping in the back of his mind waiting for a stimulus to awaken it from his slumber. A fresh experience, one that manifested itself as a wave of glory, -one that had felt remotely familure, as though he had done this sort of thing before, and that he would do it well and for as long as she continued to live. Was this called instinct? Was this the very thing that his father had told him about? -The voice -the actions, the strange growth of information that his mind would access upon an experience that would require that of a prompt and decisive response?

If this was instinct than he knew exactly what it was that he needed to do. -And that was nothing short of simply dealing with the threat at hand. The badger had been confused, lost in his senses with the fumes of his sister, giving her time to flea, and thus distracting hm from his claws. By the time he opened his eyes, it was already too late, the most he could do was whirl his shoulder and hope that he didn't miss.

Naxx felt the recoil fire up his nerves and his tendons as his claws laced his shoulder, tearing it down to the bone. The shoulder was not his intended target, but either way, he was bleeding. Landing on his side and rolling, Naxx snarled and bared fang, throwing down a paw to prevent his rolling and forced himself up once more, his right claw raised, ready to deal a beating and cause more pain than he'd ever receive. -But to his surprise, the badger never moved, only bit down hs tongue and dealt with the pain in whatever way that badgers surpressed their feelings.

Naxx's eyes went up as the badger leaped, his one good eye looked into his two, aligning their path and determine his target, -experience had taught him well, -wrestling with his brother was much more than just play, it was training for the future. The eyes were powerful instruments, but in a fight, they could also bring about the demise and the fail of an attack. Naxx had learned of this during his play with his brothers. Inexperienced fighters often took a moment to course their actions, one way to determine your opponents next move was to watch his eyes... they always locked onto their target. His father too, had been the one to teach him, to tell him and to spread his knowledge into him, he had done this to prepare him for the "Wolverine Trail" -as he called it, as other's would call it, "Man-Hood."

The badger was aiming for his ribs, Naxx confirmed this with his eye movement, and the fact that they simply didn't move from his ribs, but remained there, like that of a trained sniper, plotting the perfect hit with but one bullet. An outcome was needed, some kind of response to deal with the threat, and that, Naxx found.

His form was a blur, his movements plotted out by his brain by his primal instinct to defend the females at all costs, that they were a treasured and valued aspect of life that simply couldn't be left unprotected. They were rare, low in numbers, and very hard to come-by. And with that, hs leaped forward, his eyes moving everything slowly before he rose up on his hindlegs and threw himself to the badger while he was still in the air, raising a fore-leg up, claws removing themselves fromtheir sheaths as the third bone in each of his five toes aligned with the surrounding bones, forcing his claws out in the manner of a retractable blade, his target, one may ask? -The underthroat, -to pin the badger.

Pain flashed up Darwin's body as the wolverine tore into his flesh, that pain plaid over and over in his skull. Turning his savage eyes towards Naxx, he snorted softly, his mind buzzing like a thousand bees. Nothing escaped Darwin's eye sight, every twitch or turn made by Naxx he'd lope and disarm him. Injury made Darwin weak, not to mention he was slightly thinner than his opponent. 

Scoring deep groves into the earth, Darwin paced back as forth, evaluating every flaw of the wolverine. Naxx had his full concern on his family, and not himself; leaving him naked to deception. One thing Darwin was good at would be deceiving. Doubting that perhaps he'd fail, he didn't underestimate his quarry. Admiring how the wolverine put his own hide at risk to save his kin took balls, but it also took stupidity. Living by the code 'One can survive everything nowadays, except death, and live down anything, except a good reputation.' Sighing Darwin suddenly felt old, but he wouldn't go down without leaving serious injury. 

Eyes narrowed, Darwin calculated the movement that wolverine would make. From this tightness of the creatures jaw line and his contracted claws, he knew that Naxx planned to pin him. He wouldn't let him.

Moving quickly, Naxx made his move. His actions were quick and precise as he divided Darwin's tactic of blowing him to the ribs. Keen eyes caught the next balance of motion as the wolverine spun to pin Darwin. Sharply, with eyes closed to slits and teeth bared Darwin avoided the attack, and with his good shoulder;  with any hope had taken the wolverine by surprise as he aimed for the wolverines chest, exuberantly Darwin tensed awaiting to see if his sharp claws would slice through sinew and muscle.
