The Cliff

The cliff descends from the side of the mountain all the way to ground level next to part of the river. The Cliff ranges from 10 feet high to almost 300 feet above the water. At the top, there are plenty of tree's, fruit-filled shrubs, and an abundance of small wild life ranging from rabbits to turkeys and other small rodents and fowl.

Up in the branches of an old cottonwood there lay a femme in repose. She had her dark paws crossed one over the other and her enormous, feathered wings lay folded neatly on her back. A wild, striped pattern ran up and down her long, red coat and when she opened her eyes sleepily, they shone like rubies in the setting sun.

Evening had come upon her unexpectedly and she knew this meant that owls, bats, and other nocturnal creatures would come out to disturb her sleep. She yawned widely and uncrossed her legs, stretching them like a cat would. After this, she settled once again and lay her head down on her paws. She'd dozed through most of the late afternoon after the human-scented wolf had left and now she was exceedingly bored.

Thoughts of her younger brother pervaded her mind as it had constantly in her waking hours. She'd become separated from the little, tawny wolf pup over a week now and it left her torn apart to not know he was safe. Her brows knit togeher with worry and she tried to close her eyes, promising to rest until the first rays of light hit her again and she'd resume her tiresome search.

A large black brute with patches of silvery fur stroking up and around his face and lapping around his under belly and tail. His legs also taking some of this pretty silver into stockings that fadded into a moonlight black as his eyes burning like fire glinted in the firey rays of the darkening sun in the west.
He hadn't traveled much lately he was rumming around the rocks looking for food as his sides needed it soon. He was a rough male, most of his fur tainted with dirt but no scars upon him. Gental, none the less but cold as ice.
Arbiter, was the name of this once noble wolf, his judgment of wolves lied within their minds.. dreams better yet. He believed what was inside a wolf, within their sanity what they believed true was their true selves not what lied inside of their control.
He scented the last rock for the night, food and evaded yet another day, this was getting ridiculous in his manner. He snorted and disgraced this horried place for not providing him food, maybe there was plenty of animals around but the little pests were smarter then what he had thought.
He began to clean himself still searching for anything that might give him a source of food or such. The dirt clouding up his nose caused him to sneeze.
"Ah!" he cursed as his own fur went up his nose. He stood shaking from the seziure sneeze. "Stupid dirt..."

Vera's ears shot up and she lifted her head in surprise. "What?!" She about fell off the branch when her surprised jump made her lose her balance. She flapped her wings and righted herself with the aid of her claws on the rough bark. A few smaller, crimson feathers floated in the still air around her after her flurry of movement.

Once she was back up on her branch she wrinkled her nose and scratched at an itch under her chin. She was thinking how odd a noise it was that had startled her. Certainly it wasn't anything in the tree with her, so below perhaps. She swung her head under the branch and looked below. She couldn't see anything until her eyes adjusted to being awake. Blinking a few times, she could make out a figure below in the dusky light. She sniffed but couldn't make out anything, rather a feather flew into her nose and she sneezed loudly. She gripped the branch for dear life this time and her claws ripped off some of the bark, causing it to rain down on the hapless stranger below.

 

[LilSnowBird]

Arbiter recovered from his sneeze or a hernia if in greater detail. He shook himself to only be rained on by some thing above.
Startled he yipped up into a standing postiting with his head whipping around for the attacker.
"Whose there!" he barked out his in deep howling tone angred at the surprise.
He sniffed the air, nothing faint would come up, only stale squirrle smells and grass.

 

[Loup de la Soleil]

Vera sat up and wrinkled her nose. The feather had fluttered out with her sneeze but her nose still itched. She heard the exclamation from below and growled softly. "I could ask the same!" She called out and settled her wings on her back. She stared over the side of the thick branch as her eyes adjusted to the dim light and she became more awake. The form below looked like it was standing, and best she could tell from the voice it was a male.

 

[LilSnowBird]

Abriter's night eyes fully fixed on the aggrisive feathery fea as she tried to see him in such darkness. His eyes, burning with a simple annoyance, reflected the blackness with a flame of red. He snorted simply as he made out Vera's red like fur and his lips curled for a long moment.
"Then do," he barked up the fea sharply.
His sleek tail swishing and his paw pads digging into the soft ground under neath him ready to jump or back off when called for.

 

[Loup de la Soleil]

"Hmph. If you shall give me your name, then I shall give you mine." She stood and opened her broad wings, flapping them enough that it made her appear much larger than she actually was. Her bright, ruby eyes had fully adjusted to the night exposure now and she could make out his dark fur pattern and the gleam of his eyes.

 

[LilSnowBird]

Not the best bargin he aimed for nor the comprimise. A name can be toyed with and twisted into simple lies and gossip, if one desires. But could one have such hate at first sight? Maybe, he would just have to wait and see.
"Arbiter," his voice flickering with distrust and nervousness at her but alas he was stong.
"Now you tell me your's."

 

[Loup de la Soleil]

{ Hahaha, Vera's just a pissy, perpetual teenager. }

The fae snorted at the tone of his voice then spoke up. "I'm Vera." She tilted her head curiously and then leapt off the branch. She opened her wings when she was a few feet from the ground and the gust of wind accompanying it stirred up the dry leaves and loose dirt into a cloud. She flapped her wings a few times to clear the detritous away so she wouldn't get dust in her eyes. "Ugh, sorry 'bout that." Sh wrinkled her nose and almost sneezed but closed her eyes and kept back the urge until the nasally feeling passed. "Arbiter, then?" She raised her eyebrows above her ruby-colored eyes.

 

[LilSnowBird]

||- Teenagers... heheehe gotta love once in a while? Maybe... -||

Arbiter's feet pounced back at the stirring leaves and the thud of her landing with a burning nose and twitchy paws. Stupid bird...
"Vera... strange name..." he hissed some what curious at such a... different name.
"Yes, Arbiter," he snapped some what neutral in the stiffness of the confersation. He now saw that Vera had ruby colored eyes nearly liked him maybe more arragont and irritating.

 

[Loup de la Soleil]

{ XD It seems most of your wolves end up in some sort of romance, cute though. Sorry if Vera's kind of abrasive, she's always been so. }

Vera snorted again but this time it was more of a mocking laugh. "Snippy, are we now?" Vera ruffled her feathers to settle them and adjusted her wings to fold neatly on her back. "Well, my name's not at least so strange as yours..." She lifted her head in a superior fashion and turned her head slightly so she was looking at the brute out of the corner of her eye.

She caught him watching her eyes and blinked quizzically. "What are you staring at?" She wrinkled her nose and lifted her lips from her teeth.

 

[LilSnowBird]

||- Most, most my dear friend For all you know I might want to eat ur wolfs face. hehehe -||

His tail flicked at her whip of her head, what was she plotting? He wanted to stay and find out, it might be fun... for awhile.
Arbiters head lowered near the ground his nose still pointing at her directly, paws carrying him slowly across the ground around her almost stalking, and his fur prickled over his skin.
"DO you care what I am staring at?" he hissed slowly and a quick throaty growl escaped his clenched jaws.

 

[Loup de la Soleil]

Teeth bared, Vera watched the wolf warily and the hackles on her neck and spine rose.
"I do in fact mind when you state your words with that tone of yours." she snarled.

Vera's feathers ruffled out with the tension in her posture. Her back began to arch as if ready for an attack.
The way he circled her made her feel like he was trying to trap her where she stood.
Rather than panicing, she felt anger boiled up inside.
How dare he strut around like he owns me!

When he passed around her again she snapped out, teeth clicking together menacingly and ears pressed flat to her skull.
