Slash(open to all, mature or otherwise)

[AshWolf]

Arumi just blinked at the female. She already had help, as she said before. She may have wanted to help anyway. Then again it seemed as if the female was just in the right shape. So who ever it was, so far, was doing a good job. With her. Arumi's ears perked up as Claw appeared. Arumi had seen Claw before, but never really saw the need to speak to him. Was he taking care of her? Apparently he was. Once he finished talking, Arumi looked at her mate. Stay? Defend? Arumi just blinked again. All of this was just now coming to her. She had to interrupt.

"Please, don't find me rude..but I am pregnant. I am in no condition to fight. Haha."

It was rather odd that the question would even pop up. She wasn't going to fight while she was pregnant. She would how ever watch over Claw and the female as they slept. That was all she could do though. If Bone wanted to, he could fight. Arumi couldn't..not un less she wanted to damage the pups. She just watchleft Bone, waiting for his answer. What would he say though? It got quiet.

Bone looked carefully at Claw as he put this offer down in front of him. He looked at Arumi and knew she was the first one he had to protect, but he didn't want any deaths on his hands so he sighed. "I'll watch over you two, but if a couple wolves come your going to have to defend yourself" he said reluctantly. He felt sorta sorry about not being to fully watch over them, but he was a father now and he had to make sure he was around for the pups. He slowly padded over to a shadowy spot and laid down just looking at them, his yellow eyes were the only thing visible.

Claw looked at Bone with a sigh and nodded , he looked at Arumi feeling foolish for asking a pregnant female to fight for him. His eyes were filled with exhaustion, he flinched slightly as Slash asked what was in the bag "don't worry about it" was his only response before she fell asleep. He smiled slightly once he was sure she was asleep, he carefully took all the medical supplies out of the bag. He rubbed some cream on her leg before attaching what seemed like bandages to simulate a cast. He cut the rest with his teeth. "There she should feel better in a couple hours, it should heal within a couple days" he said relieved. He was tired, but somehow he couldn't go to sleep just yet. He sat there for what seemed like an eternity just watching her sleep, his breathing slowed down and he let his mind wander again. It was his own fault that she was the way she was now that guilt overwhelmed his mind and harassed him. He sighed and stroked her fur "Im sorry...." he whispered.

Arumi gave a nod and smirked. She knew Claw didn't mean to ask her. It was the sleep talking. She looked at Bone and agreed with the words he said. Arumi wasn't usually one to leave out of plain sight when the trouble started, but she was carrying little lives with her now so she had to be more responsible. Arumi just looked down at her belly and began to sniff around. It didn't seem as if there were any scents in the air, but she could be wrong. Arumi was a tough female. She used to be so bitter, pups would be her last resort, but now she was a bit more calmed. She had matured more. She watched Bone pad over to a shadowy spot. Arumi looked at Claw, before letting out a slight yawn. Then she looked at the sky.

"Claw, you should get some sleep. We will take it from here. If we smell anything, we will give a howl for a heads up."

Arumi spoke calmly. She didn't plan on leaving the two wolves to fend for themselves. Even though Bone said, Arumi wasn't going to just leave them. It was wrong. She felt as if she had a duty to protect both, her family and the wolves. It was just a hunch that something was going to happen here. Arumi sighed and then she padded next to Bone, sitting down. She was ready to stay alert. Then something caught her eye. Her belly was a bit big. She frowned a bit and then asked Bone a familiar question.

"Honey..um. Am I big?"

[Ghøšt]

Bone looked at Arumi with eyes that looked startled. His mind raced for something to direct the conversation away from that question. He knew if he answered it truthfully he would be in trouble. "Um...no your fine" he said hoping she would accept his answer. He was still nervous about being a father, he was probably the laughing stock to the gang wolves now. Everytime he would walk around alone they would call him "Daddy Bone" or females would taunt him.

Claw looked at Arumi with a tired look and nodded. He slowly laid down next to Slash and closed his eyes. Before hee knew it he had drifted off into a deep sleep.

Slash dreamed. She dreamed of her family, as of her memory was trying to make up another past for her, but no of it made sense. In her dream, the sky was green and the ground was blue. Water was the color of the sun, which glowed purple. Her father had two heads and was covered in scales. Her mother had wings like a bat, and her siblings were bright pink. She ran away from them, feeling afraid. When she looked back, they were normal again, calling her name. She turned to run back, but her paws were frozen to the hard-packed earth beneith them. She called desperately after them, but they began to move away. Their figures blurred, and faded out. She strained her legs, trying to vanish the invisible hands holding her. Suddenly, an evil blue eye appeared in front of her, followed by the grotesque, ripped face of Occo. She let out a whimper, which drifted into the waking world.
