The Outskirts

Azaria's ear twitched ever so slightly as Raziel seemed to utter a humorous remark.It was gone just as quickly as it came however though and the outsider resumed her demeanor of respect and reverence for the Alpha before her.
The white pelted creature shrank back some as the Alpha rose to his full height and spoke.Her ears practically melted into her head but she understood that he was merely protecting the land.She would not be welcome if she could not prove her worth and the loner feared what may result if she were to be turned away.Surely there were other packs but if she was not accepted into this one then there was no guarantee any of the others would admit her either.
Once again Scarlett's words soothed the arctic creature and her hackles smoothed back loosely as she tried to shake off the foreboding feeling crawling beneath her pelt.Aza felt that she found her voice through Scarlett's encouraging support.

[size=large]"I understand that you don't wish to simply take dead weight into your pack,and it is your right to judge, but I assure you that I can earn my keep.I am not some roaming freeloader and my sights are set hopefully on a pack that will have to use of me.I can not say that I am the most skilled at any of my trades but you would be hard pressed to find another who will be as sincere and loyal as I.Any task you ask of me shall be done to the very best of my ability so long as I am permitted to stay in this valley.My skills are not quite like those of other wolves though I wouldn't say that makes them special though they're vhighly effective to say the least.I can at least confidently say that you would never be brought to question my integrity or devotion to the pack,should I be allowed to support it.I will work for my place and earn it,if you would  only spare me the chance."the wolf spoke calmly as she extended a front leg along the ground and dipped her upper body in a kind of polite bow.She soon returned to her former position though and stood silently awaiting the Alpha's reply.[/size]
