)They had him surrounded in less than ten seconds. With only feet from any one of them, any other wolf would have his head lowered, hackles raised and a deep growl in his throat. Not Snare. He eyed every one of them, the hair on his back standing on end but nothing much else to speak of. These males were large, of course, but none of them as big as he. Snare was half sure of himself... but only half. The males around him stared, each tensing their muscles, ready to jump if Snare made a move. When he didn't, one of them, the largest, sighed and straightened up. He was in front of Snare, so the big male stared with the rigid posture of an elder looking down on pups... Four of them were so young... perhaps younger than Hellfyre... The fifth, however, was only a year younger than Snare. He spoke up, his tone that of a friend warning another.
"Come on, Snare... You know I don't want to do this..."
"Yes you do. Otherwise you wouldn't be here."
The sharp reply made the other wolf incline his head, slightly put off. He kept his eyes on Snare, thinking for a moment, then spoke again.
"Our orders are to take you back... or kill you. Either way. Which ever is easier."
Snare gave a cold laugh, making four of the five back up, their hesitation apparent now.
"So either way I'm dead, am I?"
"... That's the idea."
"Who's the alpha now?"
"Tain, who else."
Tain was Alpha Troy's son. One of them. The others were still alive but probably worked under Tain... The Alpha was a pup. Only a year old. How amusing... Snare gave a little sneer, keeping his eyes on this other.
"Well, I guess you'd better try and kill me then."
"Hah... I knew you'd say that."
"Really? Why ask, then?"
"I'm just giving you the benefit of the doubt, Brother."
"... You haven't called me that in a long time, Buckshot."
"It's a special occasion."
"... Indeed."
"You know that guy's gonna be brought back with us, don't you? And the girl... You know what'll happen to her."
"Not if I have anything to say about it."
For a very long moment, they eyed each other, each of the four younger enemies now growling menacingly, even though the looks in their eyes were of sheer terror. They knew this would be their last stand... Snare would rip their throats out... All for an Alpha... But that was the way things were... If they came back without him or his head, they would all be killed... And none of them knew how to survive out here... They all hesitated, even Buckshot. Suddenly, Snare seemed to erupt with anger. He bared his teeth, then let out a savage snarl and whirled around at all of them as they jumped backwards, surprised.
"WELL!? Come at me you SORRY EXCUSES FOR MALES! KILL ME WHY DON'T YOU!?"
And with that they buried him in a flurry of teeth and claws. Five wolves against one. All that Snare had on his side was experience, and that was enough to put the first wolf out of commission with one crushing bite to the neck. The others, however, were digging into his back and sides as he tried desprately to protect his belly and throat. He felt one of them draw blood, but he didn't yelp or howl. Instead, he reached around with his jaws and grabbed him by the tail, throwing him to the sand. Obviously, the blow was not enough to kill the wolf, and he was back in the fight almost instantly. For a brief moment, as he reared and kicked like a horse, fighting to get them away from his spine, Snare wondered if this was the end...
(ALRIGHTY THEN, does Hellfyre wanna get in on this?!?
Sorry if this post was a little confusing. The dialogue alternates between Snare and Buckshot, staring with Buck. idk if I'll let Buckshot live but if I do I'll be sure to RP him elsewhere. And no, Buckshot is not related to Snare by blood. Long story. Sorry.)
