(This is after 'Solitude' but before 'A Fatefull Meeting')
It was late by the time Nightfox had gotten back to the EarthClan camp. Her pelt blended perfectly with the night sky, as the moon was covered by clouds. She carried with her the results of her hunt on the way back, two large foxes, nice and plump. The first thing she did was deposit them by the fresh-kill pile, which was already stacked high.
She had done most of the hunting herself of late, and it seemed as if everyone else was asleep, so she took the biggest fox of the ones she had just killed and took it over to the center. Just as she bit into the limp creature's flesh, the moon cleared itself of the clouds, sending pearlescent light on the lone figure at the top of the hill.
Crimson liquid coated her teeth as she ate her meal. Normally she would have cooked it, but didn't want to wake the whole camp. So, she ate, like a 'savage'. She ate her own kind. For she was a anthro fox digirein, and she was eating another red fox. But this fox wasn't sentient, just a dumb animal, so she felt no remouse. Besides, it was the natural order of things.

a white wolf darted throuh the forest, and he smelled food, and felt very hungry. He bagan to run more slowly, as he peered through the undergrowth toward the digirein in the centre, eating. His dull grey eyes stared at the food, but knew it wasnt his to take, and stated to go on.

(I take it this is your werewolf, Shattered?)
Nightfox, finished eating, stood and went to get another morsel. But as she stretched, the black renamon felt a tingling on the back of her neck. Tentatively, she sniffed the air, and was instantly on guard. There was a new smell, slightly musky, someone was spying.
The wind had been blowing from the North, but it had suddenly changed, coming from the East, which is how she got the scent. She turned in the general direction and called, softly, but loud enough for someone in the general vicinity to understand "Come on out!" I was very tempting to call more, to taunt or insult.
But again, that might start a fight. Besides, she wanted to prove she could handle this herself.

Shattered did not trust this other being, for he was tricked many times and knew better. He turned around quickly and darted the opposite direction, his paws making a slight clicking noise as it hid the hard ground.

(Aww, come on! Don't leave, otherwise the thread'll die!)
Nightfox heard it leaving, whatever it was. She didn't give chace, but didn't go to sleep, even though she was tired now. The moon was almost at its zenith, but she would stay up and protect her Clan, and let her felow Clanmates get some rest. But then she had a thought, what if it was him? The one in her vision.
After a heated debate with herself, she decided not to go after the thing. Her vision was during the day, and the time was a ways off, it was near the full moon. It was about the half moon now, it could'nt have been him.
Nightfox returned to getting her next meal, a small pig, and dg in. She didn't worry about her Clan being fed first, as her Clan was asleep and had probably eated without her anyway.

(ooh, I have an idea)
When he noticed the other creature did not come after him he stopped, and was drawn back. He looked at the camp again, and wanted to see what it was . what sort of place is this? It isnt like the labratory.. The werewolf padded into the centre of the camp, and saw no one there. He saw the pile of food and without thinking went for one.

"You have to earn that" Nightfox said, strangely calm. She had taken a place on top of the leaders rock, and had watched the white werewolf come back and go straight for the food. This wasn't a Clanborn Digirein, it held an entirely different scent, and it didnt act like one who had business here other than to feed.
It hadn't attacked, and it easily could have killed her while she was eating. That was why she didn't attack now. "Where do you come from?" She asked, not really sure of what to do. It was a rogue, or so it seemed. Leafstar might not approve of rogues in her Clan...but then she had planned on inviting this strange renamon in her vision, regardless.

He stared up at her with blank eyes, but there was a hint of sadness in them. He lowered his head, but did not speak. He raised one of his paws, to point in the direction of where the strange labratory stood. the werewolf sat on his hind legs, and then continued to stare at her.

It was still very dark, so she could not easily tell what he was pointing at. But he didn't seem...that dangerous. so she leapt down. "Why did you come here? What do you want?" She asked, while extending a hand.
(Braindead. And short on time. Gotta go for now. bye)

(okee)
He backed away a bit, seeing her approach him. He tok his gaze from her to the food. The werewolf stood his ground, not wanting to let his guard down.

Well it was obvious from the signs ne was giving away, he was scared....of her. Perhaps that was a good thing. She could scare him off right now, and not have to worry, or she could try to strengthen her own Clan. Or she could just be kind and give this one some food, it was clear that was what he wanted.
She bent over and picked up the other fox she had killed that afternoon and held it out. "What would you do, if I gave this to you?" She asked.

the wolf looked at the fox in her jaw hungrily, then looked up at Nightfox. He finally spoke, "I would leave." His voice was odd, as if there was no feeling in it, like it was empty.

"Really?" She asked "Are you sure? Leave after one little morsel? You sure you wouldn't try and take more? And then leave without repaying the debt?" She hald-taunted. This one was strange. He barely spoke, and when he did it was...bland.
She was still trying to get her feelings straight. "If you joined this Clan, you wouldn't be hungry again" She offered, taking a few steps with the fox extended "What do you say?" This was it, he would either take the food, join, or just leave right there.....or attack for the rest of the food. That was a possibility.

HIs eyes widened, and he shook his head. but he stayed rooted to the spot, unable to move, but he actually did not want to leave.

"No? You don't want the food?" She asked, a sly smirk on her features "Well, if you don't want the food, you don't want to attack and you don't want friendship, what are you here for?" She asked, shaking the fox in front of her face, and smelling it.

"I..had to get away..." He said in a low tone, as if someone would hear them. He glanced to his sides, and he started to feel it again. Im going to return soon...I must leave... HE turned around suddenly and began to run for the camp entrance.

"Kohenkyo!" She called, abliet softly. The winds enveloped her and she materialized in front of the entrance "Hold on, what are you talking about?" She demanded, fully aware that he might try and make a dash to get past her. He seemed spooked, but by what?
And wht did he mean 'had to get away'? Was he really a rogue? Or....something else?

He looked around desperatly, for an escape. His eyes became wider, trying to get out. A pulsating ringing noise whined through his ears, and he grew weak from in and fell to his knees, putting his paws over his head.

Nightfox stepped back and dropped the fox to put up her guard...but he wasn't attacking like she had thought, it...was like he was in pain. What in the world? She cautiously moved up to him and knelt down "What's happening to you?" She whispered, not knowing if he could hear her.
She lightly touched his hands, quite curious.

He closed his dull eyes, and shivered, as if anxious to get out. the werewolf felt her touch his hand, and he thought she would attack and was a bit surprised.
