What is she thinking? The only thing that will garner sympathy with Blood is the shared Gahumati. He'll destroy her just as soon as look at her. Wolf thinks quickly, shifting forward in the saddle Wolf encourages the huge stallion to move, Move forward Hamite! Tensing his leg against the beautiful silver charger. The charger moves him closer to Tigers war-mount, Chelan. Hamite obediently side steps to Chelan's side that Sandre had occupied. Moving to stand shoulder to shoulder with Chelan, Hamite pauses with the slightest draw on the reins.

Wolf slides off of Hamites side and the wolves move in to the same position that Sandre had taken. Wolf moves to stand by Tiger warily the wolves approach Sandre and sit close together behind Wolf.

"Tasha, that may not be in you best interest. We know our lord better then most as we are his person guards. He is as fickle as they come, if you catch him on a bad day, he is as likely to kill you as help you." Wolf pleads to her reason, "It is best if you state your case to the guard: as we are as independent of the king, as we are bound to the king's orders." Dang, we have to hurry or its our asses if we don't make the mission. The ones with the most to lose are Shadow, Light, Dread, and Soul.

"Tasha, we currently have a mission to complete come with us to the complex, and we will hear of your case when we return." Dread says softly braking into the conversation, "Also its best if you ride with Wolf or Polar, they have the most pliant mounts." With that Dread wheels his massive black charger around effectively ending the conversation.

"You can ride with me, Tasha, Polar can be quite intimidating." Wolf says playfully smiling at Polar as he walks back to Hamite. Tasha follows him and quickens her pace as the wolves round to follow her, seeming to stalk her as the unusually huge wolves slink quietly along.

Wolf swings himself up in the saddle smoothly then reaches his hand down to pull her up with him. As she approaches Hamite, he snorts with an irritated air at her making her pause in hesitation.

"Don't mind him, he's just putting on an air. Take my hand." Wolf says exasperatedly giving a sharp correction by shaking the rains lightly at the huge charger to silence the horse. Tasha takes Wolfs hand, he pulls her into the saddle in front of him in the saddle. Tiger smoothly slides back into his saddle as well.

"Where's the demon nest we're raiding again? I think the chargers could use a good hard ride." Tiger asks as he signals the tigers to head them off to the mansion.

"I believe a good hours ride east. Adding in the ride, the mission would still be with in the expected parameters as long as we dispatch the demons with out a single hitch." Wolf says thoughtfully, "Also, I'm sure that Shadow briefed the humans to save the time it took us to find her and talk to her.'

The rest of the ride went by quietly and quickly as the chargers crashed through the forest at a swift gallop again. They reached the house and the charges obediently slide to a stop. Wolf quickly dismounts from Hamite. Reaching for Tasha, Wolf swings her out of the saddle be for Hamite could act out and throw her from his back.

"Go in side and have a seat where ever you like, but I don't think you'll like it out here in a minute, I'm going to call my wolves to prepare them." Wolf says quietly, Tasha nods and quickly enters the house.

Turning around to face the forest again, Wolf releases a sharp calling whistle, two wolves detach from the shadows and slink to Wolfs side. One was as white as newly fallen snow, the other the same color as the shadows it had melted out of.
"Day, guard the horses until I get back, I should be quick," Wolf commands the white wolf who yelp's in response and approach's the horses rubbing her head against Hamite's legs in greeting, then Wolf turns quickly to the black wolf "Night, round the pack back up. Your joining the mission, round them up quickly we leave soon." The black wolf races off to round up the wolves
