Redhawk Caldera Wandering the Winds(Ic Joining )

*lurks*

Peregrine heard the howl and began to make his way toward his territory's periphery, climbing down from the caldera's rugged lip. En route, he glanced out over the sprawling view and watched as Elwood appeared to intercept the stranger. Rather than feel annoyed by the Gamma's interference, the Alpha male appreciated his initiative. He really might make a good Beta male someday. Certainly, he was already well on his way to earning his Guardian title.

The swarthy leader melted down the slope like a shadow, then perched on a small outcropping perhaps a dozen feet above the caldera's foot. Screened by brush, he leaned forward. He could hear snippets of the conversation from here but, much more importantly, he could read both males' body language. He could tell a lot from that. Peregrine watched and waited, observing Elwood as he handled the interloper.
