Morning slipped into afternoon quickly enough and soon it'd be evening, it seemed that this land in the North didn't play by the actual laws of nature. It was summer, so why was there still a chill in the air? Why was there not many hours in the day with actual sunlight? Inconsistency, it annoyed Hidalgo to no end, adapting was something she was forced into doing. Everyone here in Saboro had to, they always had to, but that didn't mean she had to like it.

Though the blue female would take on the day just as any other, patrolling the borders with as much charisma as she could manage. So far it had been dull work, not much to do if there isn't anyone coming in, right? She was really able to shake that feeling, that vicious need to sink her claws into some top quality personal banter. An addiction gone awry, and the poor few members of Saboro had to put up with this.

Her functionality depended on it, with every step she could feel her teetering toward some unknown precipice. The instability frightened her, what more was there to say. But the sentry's silent prayers were answered by a VERY loud cry of a howl that echoed across the outer ring.  Well damn, she smirked to herself almost greedily, moving at a brisk pace toward the source of said noise.

But when she arrived there was already another there, Minty, and Hidalgo clicked her tongue against her teeth in annoyance as she leaned against a trunk of a large spruce. The blue female almost left her to it, what was the point of two sentries being there in the first place. HOWEVER, her mind echoed a tempting offer, two birds and one stone. Get double of what you really want, what you're really in this rank for.

Rubbing her shoulder against the rough bark of the tree, she pushed herself forward, slinking from behind brush and ferns. Amber eyes glancing at the potential recruit and then bouncing to good ol Minty. "Don't mind her, she's had a stick up her ass from day one. Daddy issues and all, she's really sensitive about it." Lips curled into a sleazy smile speaking directly to Nyx for the moment. "I'm Hidalgo, and this is my f-...f-rien...- acquaintance?? Peppermint Patti." Words were tossed about nonchalantly as she looked Nyx over, she'd come to stop by Sheikra motioning her paw in a shooing manner. "Move over, doll."

"Okay so, you're at Saboro's borders. You know an awful lot about us now, we kinda told you our names." Her grin stretched wider and wider, though it was unknown if there was any real malice behind it. "Now you tell us some nice, juicy details about you. For starters your name, and what exactly brought you to this point." Tip toeing around a sleeping lion, she could feel her legs wanting to quake. She'd turn to Sheikra then, shrugging. "Let's be real here, no one just SITS on a pack's doorstep unless they want an alliance or they want in." Duh.

Nyx went on and Hidalgo listened, picking over the words the other said as if she'd be able to rake out some good source material from it. It was all pretty average stuff, good hunter? She snorted, she'd better be a good hunter everyone here kills their own food, that wasn't anything to be overly impressed about. The two name thing though, it caught her attention and made her lips curl only slightly. Maybe something for later if the gal was able to make it into this place.

There was something about a line of great fighters, but everyone who so full and confident in themselves thinks their family is the greatest. Hell, the Valley had been full of peeps just like that. Something told her, the monochrome female wouldn't have a nice time if this were actually the Valley, welp.

A couple times she caught Sheikra's gaze, boring right into her and she couldn't help, but smile inwardly as outwardly she merely ignored it. Finally Sheikra did speak up and oh boy did she come out the gate swinging. Baby's first insult. "I'm a big kid now." Hidalgo said jeeringly at Sheikra, lips pulled into a wide grin as she tried her best to hold in a snicker. Blueberry Twat, wow, whatta new one to come up with. "I'm so proud of her to be able to express herself in such a constructive manner. It really shows she's growing as a person. I'm so happy your finally opening yourself up to these emotions, this is all so valid and you're so valid." A paw would raise to her chest as she looked from Nyx over to her minty colleague, wiping away a fake tear.

Black ears perked at the female's words and Hidalgo raised a quizzical brow, ah ha, so that's how it's gonna be. She offered a shrug. "That's fine, wouldn't want you try'in so hard 'n stuff. Fight'n ain't yer strong suit." She dipped her reply in that mocking southern twang, standing up as Sheikra backed up. "Lemme stretch though, real fast." She'd roll her neck, a nice audible pop, curling her toes and stretching her back legs, a quick move and she'd kick loose dirt at Sheikra if the other didn't move out the way, mouthing an obnoxious 'Sorry' to the minty girl. Blueberry Twat is gonna have to lay a smackdown, I GUESS???

Amber eyes would then bounce back onto Nyx, a small smirk curling her back lips upward and her tail flicking idly behind her. "We start on a count of three and then GO, okay?" The fur running long her back prickled, and her smile seemed to widen then. "1......GO!" Came the shout as Hidalgo launched herself at the monochrome girl, aiming to use her weight and momentum to catch the other off-guard and pin her teeth flashing and snapping for the other's scruff. However, if Nyx was able to dodge effectively, Hidalgo would follow suit, aiming to bite into the female's side. Don't worry darlin', I'll be gentle.

So her plan didn't work out quite as well as she thought it would, ah well, no use crying over spilled milk, right? It'd be something to note, filed away behind determined eyes. Nyx moved and Hidalgo followed right behind her, sure that she'd be able to catch the female, but all she was able to catch was a foot trying to kick her in the face.

Skidding to a halt, able to turn her head to the side she'd feel those back claws comb through the fur of her neck and ultimately miss her skin. The blue sentry almost looked dumbfounded, trying to shake the feeling of what could have been, and then Nyx came back with the 1-2 punch. Ramming into the blue female's side with all the momentum she could muster and Hidalgo literally felt the air escape her lungs.

Staggering away from the other as she once again was left to collect, clearly capable of taking hits, but her ribs ached and there was an unforgivable tension rising up and down her spine. Sheikra would probably not stop this fight, she'd love nothing more than to watch either of them (though Hidalgo especially) get creamed. However, Hidalgo had seen and FELT enough. "Okay okay, that's enough." Calling the match early with a gleam in her eye and a warm wickedness to her smile.

"You're pretty good. Probably have to nurse a bruise later on, but it is what it is, no hard feelings. Her teeth glittering as she smiled widely at Nyx, tail flicking much like a cat's would. Sheikra had forfeited her claim to this acceptance when she had volunteered Hidalgo in her place, but don't you worry, Hidalgo would have nice things to say about her if it ever came up. "You should see about joining the jackdaws, the resident meat head fighters here. Ya'know, you'd make a nice addition." Her tone favored being as nonchalant as she was about the whole thing.

"Oh yeah, Pep and myself would like to welcome you to Saboro." The words rolled of the tongue, like it was some sort of slogan or product that she was forced to sell, but in this case the product sold itself. Motioning for Nyx to follow her.
