All By Your Lonesome

[Fable]

As the snow had silently fallen to the painted ground of white, Lobo kept his head low, and his body moving. The weather was nice, it was the most peaceful he had felt in years. No wolves or coyotes to look down on him for being a half breed. He was only slightly smaller than a regular sized wolf, but that seemed to be the only thing that others would look at. His looks, his sizes, but not what was on the inside. Finally the hybrid had stopped, raising back his head with a sleak smile slithering on his face. He let out a soothing sigh as he lay down onto the frosted ground. Resting his eyes, he silently feel into a quiet slumber.

tarak walked through the trees silently and aimlessly, going nowhere in particular.
"I will just have to wait until another sign of my brother reveals itself."
slowing down to a standstill, Tarak looked up into the cloudy sky.
Nightfall was swiftly approaching and Tarak had had a long day, feeling the excitement and excursion finally catching up to him.
I just want to rest for a bit.
laying down in the fresh layer of soft snow, Tarak curled himself into a ball, with his tail touching his nose.
Just for a few minutes...
closing his eyes, Tarak drifted off to sleep completely unaware that another wolf was doing the same just a few feet away.

[Fable]

Letting out slow sighs has the coywolf slept, he also had a pleasant dream, kind of ironic that he was already smiling, but that was all about to change. Lobo's ears had twitched to the sound of crunching snow behind him.
"Well, I guess I'm not the only loner around here anymore...." He opened his eyes and lifted his head as he inhaled a couple of scents. It was pretty hard to identify who this stranger was. He could already tell that there had been other wolves around this large area, but now their only seemed to be one.
But who is it... Lobo stood up, kept low to the ground, his tail tucked in, and began to walk very cautiously. The thought of another wolf being around terrified him.

[krynn]

Tarak never slept to deeply, becoming conscious frequently to take in his surroundings. Sleeping could be dangerous for a wolf in an unmarked territory.
So when Tarak got the uneasy feeling that he was being watched, he pretended to keep dozing, listening for who would approach and in which direction. He was ready to jump up and fight should an attacker try to kill him well looking vulnerable.

[Fable]

Just as Lobo began to approach even closer, his fears had come true...There was another wolf. A large black male, who could probably tear him to pieces if he didn't watch him self. His long, pointed ears flattend against his skull, and his heart began to pound. The strange thing was that Lobo was still walking; as if his legs were going against him. He new better than to approach a wolf he did not know, he'd basically try to keep a low profile, so what was making him want to come closer? Lobo could pratically hear his heart pounding in his chest. B-boom...b-boom Closer the coy's paws stepped, crunch after crunch, he was nearing. B-boom b-boom b-boom He drew nearer until finally he was only a few meters away.
His voice crawled up out of his throat like a whimper.
"Hel-Hello?" Lobo speaks to the stranger. What will happen next was the only thing that was going through his mind.

[krynn]

Tarak listened intently as the sound on foot steps on snow came closer. What surprised Tarak though was that they did not sound like the heavier foot falls of a grey wolf. No, they were smaller and lighter. More like something a bit bigger then a Coyote. Raising his head, Tarak got up and saw that the other wolf had stopped a few meters away. His suspicions were right. The wolf before him had the scent of intimidation, and worry.
"Hello" Tarak said, looking down. A slight pause before he continued. "My name is Tarak. Who are you?
He was not angry at the others approach, but cautious.
Could he have been sent here like Yul to find me?

[Fable]

The small wolf stood there, shocked. Lobo had thought for sure that Tarak was going to attack him at first glimpse, so this was a surprising encounter. "I...I'm...". He could barely speak. His heart was practically racing, but obviously, Tarak wasn't a threat, yet anyways. "My name is Lobo. I swear, I am no threat to you, I, I was just passing on by, I'll be on my way?". The last thing Lobo wanted to do was cause trouble.

[krynn]

Tarak smiled at the intimidated wolf and nodded his head.
"Before you go I just have something to ask." Walking closer to Lobo Tarak whispered so that if any other creature was nearby, they would not here them.
"Since you are travelling in these lands, do know anything about a wolf named Takar? He looks like me if that helps."

[Fable]

Lobo twisted his head to look back at Tarak, confused. Another wolf that looks exactly like him? This could be dangerous. What if I run into this twin wolf, mistaking it for Tarak, here? Now that one sounds like he would tear me to pieces. He finally shifted his eyes to Tarak's blue gaze. "My appologies, Tarak, but I don't believe I have seen a wolf that looks exactly like you, yet anyways. The only wolf I have seen that looks exactly like you, is well, you," he replied with a slight chuckle. Instead of simply turning back and walking off, he twisted around to face the larger male, and planted his small rump into the snow. Was there more questions, or was that it. Perhaps he could make a possible new friend today.

[krynn]

Tarak chuckled himself, backing away.
"Well that in its own way if a relief I should say."
Tarak looked at Lobo sternly, "Do me one favour and run away as fast as you can if you ever meet him," .Cough. "...Well me. Stay your distance if you’re not confident who you are approaching."
Well this is trouble some. If Takar ever pretended to be me, which he could, then I might suddenly have a lot of enemies.
Tarak didn't have much to say, or really know what he was going to do if he couldn't find Takar soon.
Maybe I should report back to Ebony... That would waste a lot of time though.

[Fable]

It almost confused Lobo of how sternly the male looked at him. Could his twin be dangerous? I better be careful... Lobo was glad that Tarak could warn him in advance before something troublesome could've happened. "Is that all, then, my friend? Or should there be something more I should know about. Just in case?" Lobo had been relaxed after their getting to know eachother, but as soon as Tarak had mentioned 'run', or 'stay your distance,' it got him all worried again. He almost let out a whimper, but caught it. He was once again, frightened, and maybe a bit more paranoid of wolves.

[krynn]

"No, that is all."
Tarak looked out into the trees, wondering what future the forest had in store for him.
"I will be in this area for a little while before moving on. If you need anything, just howl."
Nodding his head, Tarak laid back down in the snow.
"I need to get some more rest. I have been on the go for many nights now." Yawning, Tarak turned to Lobo to see if he would stay or go.

[Fable]

Lobo let yet, another smile appear on to his face. After Tarak had laid down, he had given Lobo a look, which probably was an invitation to stay and rest with him before he took off once again."I'll be fine with out a rest. I believe I had a nice cozy one just before you arrived," the coywolf said to Tarak.
Lobo gave a slight nod before one of his ears had twisted to the sound of thumping. It was food, a delicious rabbit just waiting to be in his jaws. He let his tongue flick from his noes, all the wayto the side of his mouth until he closed his jaws. It's been a while since he had a decent meal. The whole entire time all he has been doing was walking. Not to disturb Tarak as he laid back down to rest some more before he left, Lobo padded to the direction of the rabbit. It sat there, grooming itself. Lobo's breathing had gotten faster, and all of a sudden, vrooom. He was off.
