"Why should I?" a subordinate growled at the she-wolf.
"He's a hunter right now, not a collar paw chew toy," Scarlet snapped.
"Fine, princess, you owe me," the same wolf growled.
Scarlet raised her hackles and raised her tail up high and stiffened, "Would you like to repeat the, Killer?" she snarled, a low, aggressive growl. Killer tucked his tail in at the angry she-wolf.
"A-alright..." Killer whimpered.
"Now go get that elk over there," Scarlet motioned to where she killed the elk. Killer whimpered and nodded and darted away towards to where she killed the elk. Killer whimpered and nodded and darted away towards to where she pointed to.
Scarlet nudged Tiny up,and he got up.
"What happened there? You acted like an Alpha!" Tiny exclaimed.
"Yep." Scarlet said calmly, the dry cobwebs around her missing eye dangling above her snout.
"Why is that?" Tiny asked, tilting his head.
"I was a Delta as a pup, and I was rejected. SO I became a scout, instead." Scarlet explained.
"A scout?"
"Yes, they deliver message from pack to pack, and they are usually the strongest in the pack and great hunters."
"That must be nice..." Tiny rumbles in envy.
"Not really... I'm feared here. Usually they'd pick a fight and try to beat me to show their strength, but they don't bother." Scarlet sighed.
Tiny licked her muzzle gently and trotted back with her as Night helped Killer drag the elk back to the pack.
"Tiny, I was to stay watch tonight. Care to join me?" Scarlet asked. Tiny looked up happily and pricked his ears slightly.
"Sure!" He yelped.
"First let me go get a bite to eat. And sorry you're going to be last," Scarlet sighed. Tiny shrugged and watched as the alpha and his mate ate first then the deltas then the hunters and subs. The usual order. They ate leaving a full meal and a half for Tiny and the mental shewolf. Tiny sighed and layed down, watching as the mental wolf padded up nerviously and began eating quickly, getting a full meal. Tiny glanced to see all the wolves laying down full and ate his half meal.
Scarlet looked at Tiny.
"Ready to go?" she asked.
"Yeah, let's go!" Tiny said, getting up and following the she-wolf out of the territory.

"Where is my lil' brother?" Summer asked Flash frantically, scattering around the camp.
"I don't know," Flash said.
"Why would he run away!" Summer wailed.
"Calm it, gorgeous," Flash said.
Summer stiffened and turned around to face the wolf.
