The pups laid down and began sharing the prey with each other. "Our mom said our dad was like that sometimes too, We are positive that he cares about everyone but shows it a different way then others. At least thats what our mom says." The pups said as they looked at Yakone waiting for him to continue.
Vixen looked at Droplet. "We might need to expand our search for food past our territory a bit, Droplet. If you want I can go search while the others continue to search within our territory." Vixen said worried for the pack.

"Don't. It isn't worth straying too far away from the pups, especially if it looks like another blizzard is on its way." Droplet blinked, having no expression on his face. He blinked once more, letting a large sigh slip from his maw. Silence greeted the wolves for a hot second. "We are leaving." Droplet raised his voice. "Vixen, round up everyone who are currently searching for food."
The brute cleared his throat before once again raising his voice. "White River, gather around. The weather has become too extreme, I cannot risk losing a life this winter. We are to leave in 15 minutes tops."

Vixen nodded and ran to the edge of the densite but then Vixen turned around, walking to the pups and Yakone. "Stay close to Yakone just in case since I have to go find the others." and with that Vixen ran off looking for the others. The pups watched worriedly as their mom left the densite.

Reika paused in licking her paw pads to listen to Droplet for a brief moment before resuming her actions. 'If any more wolves keep going out in this weather too often they'll get sick.' she thought to herself, glancing out the mouth of her den and over to Yakone and Vixen's pups. 'Please don't get sick.'

Droplet shook his lean build free of snow. He turned his gaze to Reika, nodding slowly; frowning at the reality of that. "Get some herbs prepared. If you have any left, the travel time should be about a week, not including the rest stops. If you need, I will help carry."

Vixen stopped not too far from the densite and howled for the rest to return. She stood there and waited for the wolves to come back. She shakes away the snow on her. She looked up and saw the snow wasn't gonna stop for awhile.

As the days where getting colder and colder, Keeva didn't seem to be fairing off too well with the weather. Her coat did keep her somewhat warm but due to the constant snow and cold winds, she was starting to feel the wrath of nature. And it didn't help that the pack was practically starving. There were times where she didn't eat for a day or two and was forced to munch on grasses or some other vegetation. Her small frame was starting to get thin within each day. And adding on to it, her irritation was slowly rising. She's been trying her best not to snap at anyone within the pack but it wouldn't be long until she did.

Reika nodded to Droplet. "Yes sir." She said getting to her paws. "I'm going to need some help. Some of these herbs need to be kept out of the cold least they go bad." Reika walked to the storage cleft in her den and began to pull down the herbs.

At the Alpha’s announcement, Yakone uses a paw to pull the pups closer to him; pressed somewhat against his chest to keep them warm while Vixen is away. His ears are pricked, angled outward in case anything else is said.
Anik, at the sound of the howl, straightens up from where he was stalking quite a small rodent. Letting out a frustrated exhale, he turns and heads back at a brisk jog.

The pups looked at Yakone with worried eyes. “Is everything going to be okay?” They asked yakone.
Vixen soon saw Anik so she walked back to the density knowing if there were others they would head back on their own. Vixen entered the densite and headed for Yakone’s den to check on them before going to help others get ready. Vixen stood at the entrance and poked her head in.

“Everything’s going to be fine,” he assures, giving the pups’ cheeks a reassuring nuzzle. As Vixen peers inside, he looks up at her. “I can assist the rest of the pack, you look after your young.”

"I'm about to go see if everyone is accounted for." Vixen answered as she smiled at her pups. "I will be back, my little ones." Vixen said as she took her head out and left to go see the rest of the pack.

He nods, curling up protectively around the pups to keep them out of the cold while she’s away. “Everything will be fine,” he assures them, though the reassurance also goes to himself.
Anik pads back into camp with the usual confidence, though looking much thinner due to the lack of food that’d come with this winter. “What’s wrong?” He inquires, gaze sweeping over the den site to figure out what’s happening, or what had happened.

"Droplet wants to have the pack to move and Im making sure everyone is accounted for." Vixen said as she walked passed him. The snow was still coming down so she shook them off her and continued to check on the others.

He nods, heading off to see if anyone else needs any help. He looks toward Droplet and Reika, hesitating for a brief moment before padding over. He lowers his head in a submissive position as he approaches the Alpha and Iota, not wanting to get fussed at like he had for not finding any food. “Do you need any help?” He questions, ears laying flat against his crania.

"We're.....moving?" Speaking in a hesitant voice as her ears then pinned back suddenly. The thought of traveling with the state she was in as well as some of the others made her worry. She somewhat worried for herself honestly. Sitting down as she shook her head and fur from the snow building up on her, her body slightly shaking from the cold weather but she'd have to manage for now. "Where are going to go?"

Droplet shifted his gaze upon Anik. Letting a low sigh of defeat. "Actually, yes. If you would like, of course." he nodded slowly, acknowledging how he acts around his father. "I need you to help carry Reika's herbs, or.. carry a pup." -- "I will be caught up in leading. Oh- that reminds me. I need a someone to be in the back at all times, making sure no one falls behind."
Droplet looked at Keeva with gentle eyes. "Temporarily yes. We will be moving somewhere safer."

Hearing Anik speak, Reika turns to him and nodded. "Any extra paws is needed. I just need get the herbs out of the storage and to try to keep the frost off the herbs that need to be in warm climates." She said gesturing to the small pile of herbs on a bunch of dry moss with her tail. "Can you do that for me?" She questions.

“I can carry some herbs and fall behind if need be,” he volunteers, straightening up once sure the Alpha isn’t going to snap at him. “Yakone can carry a pup, or both if he tries hard enough. Is that all?” He nods in response to Reika’s question, turning his focus to the Iota. “What all needs to stay off of the ground?”

Vixen made sure everyone was accounted for then headed over to where droplet, Reika and Anik were. "Everyone is here, Droplet. Anything else you need me to do?" Vixen asked as she lightly shook snow off of her.
