The sterling outrider didn't really have a destination on his mind as he wandered through Swiftcurrent Creek. He went where ever his paws took him and still, he couldn't find anyone. He sniffed the air for a familiar scent but there was none, shrugging he continued walking towards the Creek. Surely there had to be someone near the waters, someone had to be thirsty or hungry.

He spotted a rabbit and lunged after it, not really intending to catch it. He just wanted to stretch his legs and chasing the rabbit actually gave him something to do. It bounded all the way to the Creek, he stopped abruptly, wondering if anyone was here. He was in need for some company.

Furrowing his brows, he scanned the area around him for any sign of a living wolf.

He sniffed the air, finally a gust of wind brought a familiar scent towards him. He wondered how she was doing. Letting his nose take the lead, he found her, her golden eyes trained on the river, her usual jumpy and cheerful attitude no longer here. He sensed an aura of sadness around her, he frowned, concerned for his usual witty friend. He approached her slowly, platinum eyes full of concern and worry.

"What's wrong, Danica?" he asked, the humor that he held earlier was gone, he sank down on his haunches beside her, touching his nose against her cheek as he waited for her reply. It worried him to see her brooding, this was so unlike her. What happened? Who had made her this upset?

He froze, his mind struggling to comprehend what had just been said. Slowly his eyes narrowed, icy gaze full of anger, taking a few deep breaths he managed to actually speak. "Who....who the fuck issued that order." he managed to spit out, voice full of fury. "Is it the newest Alphess? And if it was her, why did she do it?" his voice was trembling as he spoke. He took another deep breath, "Please tell me Danica, I won't judge you, I promise." he said softly, nudging her with his nose as he silver gaze sought her fiery ones out.

He realized he was still trembling with disbelief and anger so he took another few breaths and waited for her answer. He couldn't believe anyone would kick her out, a loyal, healthy warrior. If it was Bazi (it probably was), there had to be a reason behind all this and only if that reason was murdering a fellow pack member, then she should be kicked out. If that wasn't the reason.....

He couldn't even manage to fake a smile when she said "Ding, we have a winner," He was that angry. "I told her that I have feelings for her, and she didn't take it well. Perhaps I would have been smarter opening with the fact that I have feelings for women in general, but cest la vie." So apparently the reason why Bazi had asked for Danica to leave was not because she murdered a pack member but because of her sexuality. He scowled, claws digging into the earth, barely aware that his ears had started flattening.

"Let me get this straight," his voice held barely contained fury. "You told her you liked her and stuff and then she decided to just kick you out of the pack because of whom you like? Was she afraid that you'll fall for another at the Creek if she let you stay?" He sneered, he couldn't believe that Bazi would do such a thing. He didn't even wait for an answer.

He rose to his paws, "I'm going to find her and beat some fucking sense into that pretty head of hers." he growled before remembering that Danica had feelings for her and even though he wanted to smash the Alphess's head against a rock, he stopped. "If you're going with Njal and Tuwawi, I'm coming with you." but he knew, even as he said those words that he couldn't. Paar was at the Creek and he couldn't bear the thought of leaving her but he couldn't let Danica leave either. This was all Bazi's fault. Damn her.

He gazed at her, icy fury burning within his platinum orbs but it wasn't directed at her, instead directed at the ivory Alphess "Fine. I won't beat her up," he sneered. "But I'll tell her to thank you when I spare her miserable life." It was only because of Danica that Bazi wasn't all bloody and messed up now. "Her reaction to you was unfair," he snapped at nobody in particular. "I don't care about her and what she needs. I care about you, I want you to stay at the Creek with me so I can laugh and joke with you anytime but mostly, I want you to be happy and now, I don't think you'll be able to find it here at the Creek." he sighed.

He glared at the distance, "I will stay, for now." he said. "But I won't stay long, if my plan succeeds, you are welcome to join me." He calmed down slightly at her touch. "Of course I'll visit you, even if Bazi doesn't approve." She does not own me. "I'm going to die of boredom when you're gone."

He smiled at her, silver eyes dark with sadness, anger still visible in them but he tried his best to hide it away as he inched closer to her and placed his head on top of hers before withdrawing. "I'll miss you, sis." he murmured softly, smiling at her. "When I visit you, you better tell me how the pups are doing." a playful tone in his voice as he nudged her fondly.

"Of course, Danica." he winked back at her, a smirk curving at his lips. He was still angry and sad but he hid it well, not wanting to ruin the last time he was probably going to speak to her in Swiftcurrent Creek. He really couldn't believe Bazi would do that, she was just a normal healthy warrior that liked the same gender. There was nothing really wrong with her, she couldn't change her feelings so it wasn't fair for her to get kicked out.

His brows furrowed slightly, if he managed to establish his own pack someday, nobody would be kicked out just because they liked the same gender or both. It would be fair, he hoped.

"I'm sure I'll see you around before then, but I think I need a walk right now. Take care, Shadow, and don't you dare get at those Silvertip wolves without me." The silver male rolled his eyes, a faint smirk gracing his lips. "Would never dream of doing that," he replied, a glint of amusement in his silvery eyes. He watched as she winked and turned to go.

He sat there for a moment, sadness piercing his heart. It seems that the Creek wasn't for him after all. If only this hadn't happened, he would still have a future here. It wasn't that he didn't have one now but he might have to get his plan into action sooner than planned. It wasn't really a problem for him but for Paar....he didn't want to rush her.

Shaking the troubling thoughts away, he rose to his paws, intending to find someone.
