OOC: This was suggested by EbonyPatriot. This is yet another spin off of Darkness. Actually it's more of a prequel to Darkness as the events to take place occur before Come Out of the Darkness and Find Out Who You Are.
This roleplay will foretell the story of Thunderia and how she came to be in Darkness. If anyone is interested to join, please do so. ^_^ But just remember, because it takes place before Darkness, EbonyPatriot has not yet met the group as far as I know. If I am wrong, please let me know otherwise.
Okay, here's the first post!
BIC:
Thunderia-
The forest was quiet. An eerie silence filled the woods with the unbearable sense that something evil is going to happen. Then the sound of twigs snapped, breaking the silence only so briefly. Heavy panting and more footfalls continued to shatter the silence only for a few seconds.
The wind howled, and the dark clouds continued to roll across the skies. It was beginning to storm. A loud thunderclap crashed through the skies, causing many birds who had been on the ground to fly back up into the skies and away from the storm. Their cawing filled the skies.
A figure emerged from the brush. "I hate it when it storms." The furry animal complained. "It always ruins the hunt." It was Thunderia, a female wolverine who was part of Tazer's pack. She was one of the highest ranking females, second only to Ferrum. She didn't get along too well with Ferrum, but that was wolverine nature. Wolverines aren't supposed to tolerate each other that well.
Suddenly out of the corner of her eye, she saw something. She quickly turned her head over and saw a bear. The bear wasn't looking her way and it was too far away to smell her. But she could see it nevertheless. The bear was getting close to Tazer's den, and it was all alone.
"Looks like another bear wandered into our territory." She had finally turned back, and headed towards the area where the other wolverines were. Thunderia would have to try her hunt later. She always believed that it was more important to give up a hunt and warn the pack of an intruder rather than continue the hunt and risk the intruder getting at the pack.

OOC: Yes, I figured this could be while EP is on his way up to Brother Bear Land (for lack of a better term ); in other words, like you said DarkHououmon, before "Darkness" began. BIC: Two Wolverines rush at Thunderia, lips writhed back. "HALT!" they bellow. "WHO-oh, it's you, Thunderia, never mind." The two are the Wolverine siblings, Balatro and his siter, Belladonna. "Hello," says Belladonna, hanging her head; her siibling does likewise. "Have you heard? Ferrum's gone! We can't find her anywhere. She was our sister, you know." Balatro flattens his ears. "What's more: when we followed her scent, it was soaked with-with man's scent." So fast does Belladonna's head swivel, it's a miracle her neck doesn't break. "When did you find that?" she asks in clipped tones. "Tazer and I found that," explained Balatro. (It was well-known that Tazer loved Ferrum). "He was so upset he forgot to bite my shoulder; you know, like he normally does when he's angry." --- Perched above the dark caverns of a small former fox's den, Tazer wails miserably to the heavens. "Why, Great Spirits? Why did you take her?" His chest aches terribly; for never before has he, a psychopath, cared for anyone. Not his parents, not his pack, nothing. "WHY?" " I know...I know it seems harsh," whispers a voice. Tazer whirls to discover a transparent Wolverine, the rain trickling down its fur. "Xotol..." Tazer gasps, bowing his admiring head. " But we Spirits have our reasons, reasons you cannot understand," continues Xotol. Only the rainfall shatters the silence. "So," says Tazer. "What should I do?" " What do you think Ferrum would want you to do?" whispers Xotol. "Move on. He's coming, Xotol," growls Tazer. "EbonyPatriot is on my trail. I MUST continue my bloodline. I MUST have kits." Xotol says nothing. "Belladonna, perhaps..." he mutters, staring down from his rock. "Or... "That's IT!" rasps the Wolverine. "Thunderia! She shall bear my kits." " I did not say that. Never did I say that," softly snarls Xotol, shaking his head. " She will not accept you." "Oh?" chuckles Tazer. "No fear-I have my ways." Xotol's lips wrinkle in a silent snarl. " So be it." With that, he fades from view. Tazer shrugs and stares down at Thunderia, grinning.

Thunderia-
Thunderia's ears swiveled forward in shock. "Man you say?" Even though she never got along well with Ferrum not even she would wish this on the wolverine. "That's terrible!"
Thunderia had the feeling she was being watched, but she shrugged it off. She didn't want to be bothered by this petty feeling.

The two Wolverines nod mournfully. "Tekkeitsertok watch her," whispers Balatro (they didn't want to think of the Spirit of Death right now).
"So..." says Belladonna, desperate for a change of subject. "Have you seen anything out there, Thunderia?"

Thunderia-
Thunderia's eyes widened as she remembered why she had come back. "Yes. A bear." She answered, ears back a little. "It's not too far away from here." She pointed her nose in the direction she had seen the bear. "It looked to be an adolescent. I think it was a sow, not a boar. She had no cubs with her as far as I know." Thunderia knew all too well how much easier sows were to kill than boars. Sows were much smaller in comparison. Mother sows were a problem. Their motherly instinct could make them highly aggressive and a force to reckon with. But a sow with no cubs is another story...

"We'd better tell Tazer," smirks Belladonna.
"Tell me what?" inquires Tazer, for he had just come within earshot at that statement. The Wolverine strides to three, ead high, eyes glittering as they alight on Thunderia. What a female!

Thunderia-
Thunderia turned to see Tazer walking towards them. She felt a little uncomfortable with the way he was staring at her, but she knew better than to disrespect the large wolverine. She bowed her head to show respect for the leader of the pack.
"There's a lone sow nearby, Tazer." She said dutifully.

"Well done, Thunderia. Call up ten of the pack and then lead us to her. After that, I have... an anouncement to make to everyone, if you will," says Tazer. "Now then, Balatro..." Thinking better of that choice, he turns to Belladonna. "I want you to stay with the others."
With that, he steps back, tail swishing from side to side. "Well, you've been given your orders! Go!"
Without seeing to it whether or not they would obey, Tazer turns tail and strides back to his den. He is puzzled- surely Thunderia obsevred his admiring glances? Why, then should she seem so...so uncomfortable, yes that is the word he's looking for. Why?

Thunderia-
Thunderia decided to give a respectful smile, and bowed again. "Yes sir!"
She turned and raced off to locate the pack and rally up ten wolverines. When she reached them, she shouted, "All right, listen up! Ten of the strongest wolverines, gather up and come with me! There's a bear nearby!"

The ten Wolverines- seven males, three females- reluctantly get to their paws and trot after her. Who does this Thunderia think she is? they all mentally snarl. Tazer's mate? Only the psychopath himself can give orders! He's never let anyone else have that privlege before!
Still...better safe than sorry to follow her. At worse they'll be following Tazer's orders; at best, they'll get to see Tazer attack Thunderia, heheh.
Tazer's rounded ears cock as the eleven Wolverines come into view. "Good. Now then," he says, loping to Thunderia's right shoulder. "Lead the way, Thunderia. The rest of you, follow behind us."
As the disappointed Wolverines march out, Tazer pushes his muzzle against Thunderia's ear. "For morbid curiosity's sake, Thunderia, tell me- are you in estrus yet?"

Thunderia-
As Thunderia started to lead the group of wolverines to where the bear was, she was mildly surprised when Tazer asked her something. She tried not to show her shock at his question, and answered as simply as possible. "No, sir. Not yet."
Then, in the distance, Thunderia saw it. The female bear from earlier. She had gotten closer. Ears swiveled back, she said, "There she is!" The she-bear was still very much alone, and would be very easy to take down.
OOC: This story's gonna give me nightmares. XD

OOC: Tazer you sweet talker eh? XD Don't worry, that's as graphic as it will be.
BIC: "No, sir. Not yet."
Tazer's rounded ears flick back with disappointment; his tired becomes slower. Not good- the soon he sires kits, the better. Furthermore, Xotol's ears keep ringing in his ears: "She will not accept you."
She would be a much more receptive mood once in estrus...yes, that would be the time to prove Xotol wrong. Until then...well, he sighs, he'll just have to wait.
"There she is!" calls Thunderia.
Tazer turns to his pack. "You sneak up and attack while I distract her." With that, he emerges from the bushes, his tail swishing from side to side. "Hello, Bruin," the Wolverine calls in a friendly voice. "Why are you so alone? Don't you have cubs?"

Thunderia-
Thunderia followed the other wolverines, sneaking up behind the bear, and waited for the moment to strike.
The bear seemed scared, but mostly confused. She was slightly creeped out by the wolverine's seemingly unnatural friendliness. Wolverines were known to be vicious. "N-No...I don't have cubs..." She managed to say.
