Y.B - Zephis - November 30, 2018
He had left his lands for the first time in what felt like forever. Yibio, the raven, knew he had gone out, but he didn't say for how long he would be gone. Maybe a few hours. Maybe the whole day. Maybe even a week...or perhaps longer. Did it even matter? Zephis knew he wouldn't be missed anyway. So with that in mind, he headed southward until he reached the banks of the huge river that cut through the lands.
The summer sun beat down on his back as he walked along the banks, head low and ears folded back. It was clear he wasn't in a good mood, but in all honesty, he wasn't quite sure what to feel anymore...
He jumped over onto the new lands known as Young Bloods. The smell of fresh pine and damp leaves filled his nose. He inhaled, and with this he seemed to calm down. Zephis’s mind clread and became an empty void. His tongue rolled out of he’s mouth as he lapped up the cold water from the river before he went walking into the new lands.

Bloodbird was both loving and hating the summer days, as they brought with them beautiful weather for vast amounts of traveling, but they also brought a muggy warmth that clung so tightly to the dark hairs along her frame. Sure, winter coat had finally shed the last remaining clumps from her scruff, but that didn't help the fact her pelt soaked up the sun rays like a camel in a desert oasis. That's why she spent most of her days lounging about in the shade of tall pines or weeping willows, but even that didn't help the lingering desire to cool herself in shimmering waters. It was that desire that drove her along the great turning river, finding traveling during the day was much more bearable if she was able to soak herself from time to time. From there she saw a sight, a large dark creature. He stood there, unmoving. Only a couple fox lengths away, she sat and stated with her eyes closed.
“I suppose your here for one of two things... Either your trespassing, or your here for my judgment. If your trespassing, I am letting you go with a warning, but if you here for my judgment…” Bloodbird opened her eyes and looked directly at the wolf, she gazed into his flaming eyes with no emotion.
“Come with me.”
She got up and began to walk back into the confined of the cool, shadow painted pines where her land began to grow.

The “dark creature” padded into the river and crossed onto the other side with very little ease. The water seem to flow right through him, he didn’t mind it. In fact he sort of liked the feeling of cold water around his forearms and legs on a hot summer day. He walked deeper into the Youngblood’s lands. He never really thought too much about having to adapt how he did things. Maybe it was because he grew up with his mother having to do the same thing for his blindness. It had been a normal part of his life from a young age so it was something that Zephis did without thinking "If I had four legs I wouldn't have to do it this way" or "If I had four legs this would be easier". Both of those statements were completely truthful and were things he had thought from time to time, but in this case he was simply doing the best he could with what he had.
She had stated “Come with me”
“Where exactly are we going?”
“I’m sorry, but I never caught your name… my names is Zephis.”

“Where exactly are we going?”
She turned and stopped him.
“We are already here, now-“
“I’m sorry , but I never caught your name… my name is Zephis” he said.
Bloodbird was in mid sentence when he cut her off. She wasn’t upset or annoyed with him, she understood his curiosity. He had questions and she had answers.
“My name is Bloodbird, as I was saying.… What made you wander into my lands. Food? Shelter? Purpose?”
She looked at him. He looked…wet. Bloodbird let out a soft laugh escape her muzzle.
Things had changed a lot for Bloodbird and somethings changed for the better… Somethings she missed, something’s she didn’t. She missed her mother, her father, she even missed her annoying little brother, Dibiro… He was killed in a forest fire.
A wave of sadness strung over her face as she looked away from the hellion. Dibiro had the same dark fur as Zephis. She gazed at his fur and then turned her head.
…Not suspicious at all…

“My name is Bloodbird, as I was saying.… What made you wander into my lands. Food? Shelter? Purpose?”
He thought for a second… The name Bloodbird seemed familiar to him, but he didn’t have time for name remembering.
“Well, nice to meet you Bloodbird. I don’t exactly know what made me wander into your lands. I suppose all three, I never really had a lot of food in my spot of the Striaghts, not so much shelter there either. Purpose more so out of any of them. I was tired of being alone, and tired of being unwanted, and unwelcomed by everyone I met. But you, you and your lands seem comforting, almost as it was my home.”
He looked down at the ground, embarrassed. Zephis didn’t really enjoy saying those sentences, but he knew he had too. It was his only way of ever feeling wanted. He knew he wasn’t accepted my other people, he knew he was different. But that didn’t stop him from trying to reach his goal.
His pride his all he had left, and that didn’t exactly please him…

“I see… well then Zephis, I suppose I could help you. One more question. What will you be able to give the pack of Young Bloods? What qualities do you have that will help Young Bloods rise and thrive. What kind of effort will you put in?”
The final question. This question will determine whether on not he will join. Bloodbird gave a quick smirk, then straighted her face. She knew what he had already, she already had a decision in mind. But these few question would either raise her decision, or it wold lower her decision. Bloodbird looked at the hellion once again.
The raven that was known as Yibio, that had recently flown from her sister,Puzzle, had croaked and landed beside her. He carried a piece of paper in his black beak. Yibio stood there beside her, he looked at Zephis. Yibio fluttered upward and landed on her scruff and inched down towards her shoulder. He nested in between her shoulder blades, still with the piece of paper in his beak.

“I see… well then Zephis, I suppose I could help you. One more question. What will you be able to give the pack of Young Bloods? What qualities do you have that will help Young Bloods rise and thrive. What kind of effort will you put in?”
The big questions.
“With my strength, I will give you protection. With my knowledge of plants, I will help your illnesses. With my spirit, I will give you light. With my presence I will help you thrive.”
Those words seemed right to him. He saw the raven flutter down, but Zephis payed no mind to it. He looked into the she-wolf’s as she did his. His gaze was strong, hers was stronger. Her dark green eyes were shimmering. His were dull and red, but his spirit was a raging fire. Zephis’s ear folded back and a small smile escaped his muzzle.
“My effort will be inconceivable. My effort will be astonishing. I will not let you down, I will not disappoint you in anyway… If anyone or anything harms you in any form, I will personally remove them-“ A large smirked snarl stretched across his face. “-permanently…”

“I see… well then Zephis, I suppose I could help you. One more question. What will you be able to give the pack of Young Bloods? What qualities do you have that will help Young Bloods rise and thrive. What kind of effort will you put in?” She said to him a second ago.
The big questions.
“With my strength, I will give you protection. With my knowledge of plants, I will help your illnesses. With my spirit, I will give you light. With my presence I will help you thrive. My effort will be inconceivable. My effort will be astonishing. I will not let you down, I will not disappoint you in anyway… If anyone or anything harms you in any form, I will personally remove them… permanently.”
She smiled and her thick white teeth shone bright, her eyes close and she seemed to laugh. This is exactly what she wanted to her. And her decision became very clear inside her mind. Alough something’s may be a problem, but she would discuss them late with him. She sat up, nodded her head, and wagged her tail slightly.
“Welcome to Young Bloods, Zephis the lead Oonagh.”
