Nightmare'd left the last place she'd traveled to and made her way across the small, patch of grass. *Man, this wandering all the time does get kinda tiring... I wish I had a pack again...* She carried on, paws dragging across the ground, head and ears lowered, and eyes drooped. A scrawny mouse scurried across the young wolf's path, disturbing the grass for a while. She ignored it and continued on her way, knowing very well now that this was the hunting ground of some other pack and that she had no business being there. Quickening her pace, Nightmare started trotting, the wind rushing through her black fur and making her feel as though she were flying. She was thoroughly enjoying herself when seemingly out of no where, another wolf stepped out of the shadows, hackles raised and fangs bared in a snarl. "This is Loner territory stranger, you have no right to be here. Leave or face the consequences!" he growled. Nightmare was not a girl to be messed with and immediately assumed the same stance as the opposing wolf, ready to defend herself if necessary.

Phantom also stepped out of the bushes and snarled, but her snarl was directed toward the male. "Leave her alone! For goodness sakes! All others are welcome to the pack."
She snorted and turned her yellow eyes to the female. "Hi. I'm Phantom. It's a pleasure meeting you. I'm sorry about him... he's... ready to attack anybody who isn't in his pack," she growled, smiling for a second.
"But I say that you should tell us why you're here, and if you might care to join the pack."

Nightmare loosened up, still not entirly trusting the male but thinking Phantom seemed nice. "My name's Nightmare and I really don't have a pack. I just...y'know...wander around wherever my paws and fate carries me and I happened here. Used to have a pack, my mother's, but my cousin killed them all, except me and my little sisters, whom I have no idea where they're hiding," Nightmare's tone was sad and quiet. She really didn't mind traveling alone these days but sometimes it was a bit too much and she missed the comfort of a pack and a family. *Maybe I should join them, try it, but then again....* She glared at the still present male who tensed when she looked at him. *...I'm not exactly welcome by all and there's no telling when that cousin of mine might turn up and try to slaughter this pack as well and there's no way that I'd ever let another wolf get killed because of me. I can't take that chance.* The black wolf started to back up slightly but paused, undecided and torn between staying and living with other wolves again or leaving and saving them the worry of her cousin. *Hmmm...and how long can I actually stay before fate tells me I have to leave again...* She shook her head, finally deciding that she'd take the risk and join Phantom's pack, if only for a short period of time. "Well, I guess I could stay with you for a while but I can't garuntee that I'll stay forever. Also, my cousin's still at large and out looking for me and my sisters. Don't know why but he seems thirsty for blood...my family's blood. I just don't want another wolf harmed because of me. And I do believe that me not staying would be good news to some wolves around here." Emphasing the word 'some' Nightmare once again turned to the male wolf. He snorted and didn't meet her gaze, suddenly very interested in a blade of grass. Somewhat satisfied with his reaction, Nightmare turned back around to Phantom, grinning. "Otherwise, if you're still willing to accept me, I'm all for trying to being part of a pack again!"

Phantom nodded, blinking her golden eyes in sympathy. "I know what you mean. Humans attacked my mother's and father's pack when my brother and I were only pups. They killed everybody except my brother and me."
She sighed and growled, "He still thinks I'm dead..."
Phantom listened to the rest of what Nightmare had to say, and smiled. "Yes, well, our Pack is larger than most Packs. Usally, there's only the alpha pair, maybe a pup or two, maybe more, the betas, then a few others. Our Pack has... more than a few others."
She stood and trotted away, calling behind her shoulder, "Follow me!"

Nightmare picked up her paws and quickly caught up with Phantom, noticing the male wolf leaving in a different direction behind them. *Atleast I won't have to deal with him...* She was ooking forward to actually being part of a pack again, kinda excited at the prosect as she followed the wlf in front of her.
