_{To her happiness a howl drew Agony's attention from her three pups as they pranced about her, tugging on her fur and tail to gain her attention. She nipped at her only daughter, Charity, as she came to close to Ag's ear, with a growl she turned and the half grown pups followed after her slim black form as she padded through the snow. Kiba kept close to his mothers side, he looked so much like Jaxxon it was almost painful to look at him, her mate seemed to have left her with a pack and family to raise on her own. The scar that covered her right eye crinkled at the thought while she frowned, anger burned now in her red eyes, bright as blood through the snow and in the sockets of her slim face. Ren was trailing behind his mother while Charity hung back behind her brothers, glaring at her mother and pouting slightly while the little gray pup puffed up slightly as she followed through the cold snow.
Agony glanced back, she was a mother now and sometimes it was hard to remember, but at this point she wouldn't mind leaving her daughter behind. Ren was a handful on his own, and little Kiba was so weak that he also stuck close, but Charity, she growled at the thought before turning around and seeing the dark shape ahead. Raising her head and tail high she padded forth, the light snow coming down onto her back dappleing her with blissfully cold temperatures. Steam came from her nostrils as she breathed out, plumes rising in front of her eyes to greet the gray sky, flicking her ears towards the male she sat some feet from him, Kiba still next to her while Ren and Charity sat behind their smaller brother and looked in partial awe to the new wolf. State your name and business here. Agony growled out, flashing a fang in warning to the male, he would recieve something quiet rememberable if he tried anything.}

_{You're speaking to her now. Agony's red eyes slitted slightly, her tail flicked while she blew more air from her nose, from the corner of her eye she noticed a small gray shape moving. Then Charity's red hing legs passed her and Agony stood, turning on her daughter with a snarl as she bared her fangs. Back to the den, you and Ren both. Charity and Ren both gave a whimper before turning and walking back, she watched as they retreated into the snow, hearing them grumbles and protests as Kiba sat serenly in the snow. She had decided long ago when Charity had first started to show signs of rebelling that Kiba would be the one to be groomed as her heir. Growling lowly she turned back to Storm. Speak quickly for I am in no mood to hear you babble on, Storm Runner. She nearly spat his name out, as if it might have burned her tongue or been acidic to her, this foul mood would blow over sooner or later, maybe after she dealt with her rebellious daughter.}

_{Weither I have a mate or not is none of your concern... Agony growled out, narrowing her red eyes again and giving the male a quick once over again, she would let him stay for now just to stop his pestering. Though as soon as he entered her land he would find that her mate hadn't been around for months now, Jaxxon's scent was all but lost in the whirling winds and snow, the only part of him left was the smell of the den and his pups. You may stay if you wish... I welcome you to Rouge Neige. Flicking her tail now Ag stood, staright, feeling Kiba scrunch against one of her legs and shivering now, curled to her small paw as he gave a small whine of protest. Concerned now she dipped her head, keeping her ears and eyes on the new wolf before picking her pup up and motioning for the newcomer to follow now.
Agony turned around tentavily, ears back to listen to the sounds Storm would make while walking, where he to get too close he just might find a pair of teeth in his flank. Though a lot of her focus was on her smallest son that was now curled, the loose skin on his neck clutched between her jaws carefully so as not to inflict pain. She haulted and turned slightly, casting a weary glance back to make sure that Storm Runner was following.}

_{With a shake of her small head and a roll of her red eyes Agony proceeded the walk into her home, it smelled strongly of her, signifying she was among the first to walk upon this land when wolf first discovered such a paradise. Swishing her tail she stopped and raised her head high, looking to the few patches of tree's to her left, the tall and thick black looking trunks stark against the white snow.
Kiba whimpered in protest at his mother's prolonged jaunt, with a gruff sort of snort she once again lowered her head and began to trot quicker, she wasn't as concerned now if Storm Runner where to find his way to a den. For now she was concerned about her own family, where they in the den or where they out in the snow again? She growled at the mere thought of Charity running off again, no doubt Ren would follow, Agony's other son was known for being a follower, yet another reason he wouldn't be the heir. With these thoughts in mind it was sure to occupy her on the cold and somewhat long jaunt back home to her warm den.}
