Starting Scene:

The snow falls upon the silent forest. The evergreen tree's branches sag with their loads of snow. Icicles glitter on bare tree limbs. The streams run ice-cold, with ice crystals threatening to take over. The distant horizon glimmers with the light of dawn. It has been four dawns since the Alphas have disappeared. The Northern Pack is curled up in their cave, burrowed in animal pelts. The pups are the first to wake, demanding breakfast.

Shibaan

The white wolf raises her head, ears pinned. The pups always wake everyone up, crying in hunger. She sighs, splitting her jaws in a wide yawn. Shibaan shivers slightly, it's warm in the den but there isn't anything to stop the icy winds from coming in. She decides she'll suggest letting one of the Omegas build a barrier of sorts. She thinks for a moment, a bramble bush would do well. It would save the Pack from freezing every night. Shibaan rises to her paws, stretching out her sore limbs. She shakes out her pelt, picking out pieces of moss out of her white fur.

Cedar

He slowly opened his eyes, heart sinking as the cold fully awakened him. It had been so nice to dream, to forget about their current predicament, but he couldn't sleep forever. He glanced over at Shibban, and the mere presence of his alpha was enough to reassure the hunt chief. Shibban would guide them through this long winter, surely. After a quick glance around the den to assure him that none of the northern pack had vanished during the night, he rose from the pile of pine branches he had claimed as his sleeping spot, making sure to pick out any stray pieces of sap that had gotten stuck in his fur.

The hungry whines of the pack's pups set him on edge, ears flattening somewhat. They would need some food, and soon, but Cedar had no idea if any of the omegas were ready to join him on a hunt. He preferred not having to use his rank to get the omegas to comply, but he would, especially if Shibban ordered him.

Sylvian

Sylvian didn't get much sleep. The missing Alphas had everyone on edge. As Beta, it was his job to look after the pack while they were gone, but he knew they didn't stand much of a chance with them gone. They might need to find a new leader, and fast. Shibaan seemed like the best option so far. Others were already looking to her for direction.

He stopped his pacing as some of the pack members began to wake, mainly the pups. They didn't have much food to give them but they would make do. He'd offer to hunt himself but, without someone to lead him, he wouldn't be much use. Steadying his resolve, he made his way to Shibaan.

Tenn

Tenn groaned as all of the wolves started waking up, he had barely gotten a good night’s sleep because he was sleeping right next to the den entrance. The omega stared at Cedar, knowing he wanted him to get up. Tenn growled lightly before getting up and stretching out.

Shibaan

Her ears swiveled as she heard Sylvian approaching. She turned to look at him. "Could you tell Tenn we need to work on a barrier?" she asked, yet it was more like a demand. "It's no help that we're freezing every morning." she sighed. Shibaan looked over her packmates. The pitiful cries of the pups were driving her insane. She looked over to Ceder, motioning for him to come. "Could you gather up a hunting party? These pups are gonna stop whining until they eat." she knew the chances of catching large game was slim. Yesterday they had only caught three snow hares, and the entire pack had to share them. Shibaan felt slightly self-conscious as every wolf now saw her as the alpha female. Yet she was also proud. There was still no clear alpha male, no one had stepped up quite yet.

Sylvian

He grinned toothily at Shibaan, "I was just thinking about what you could contribute. This seems like a good start, I'll make sure it's done." Before he left, he brushed up against her to whisper in her ear. "I'd also like to speak with you when you have the time. It's about the Alphas."

He turned and made his way to one of the Omegas, Tenn, he believed. "We need a barrier at the front of the den. Something to keep the cold out. Get to it." He turned his back to him, ready to pay him no mind. "Oh, and do something about the pups, they sound awfully in need of some mothering."

Tenn

Tenn huffed and snorted as he stood up, “I don’t take orders from you fuzzy,” he groaned as he finished stretching. He was much scrappier than the other wolves, seeing as he ate last he wasn’t as fed as everyone else. The brown wolf was already grouchy from a bad nights sleep, so he didn’t feel like dealing with Sylvian’s demands today.

“If you have a problem with the pups, why don’t you deal with it?” He asked, there was sarcasm hidden in his voice. Despite the talkback, Tenn was going to obey because he wanted to eat tonight.

Shibaan

She looked unamused at Sylvian's toothy grin. "Thank you." she murmured, nodding her head. She flinched when he brushed up against her, a flicker of confusion in her eyes. About the Alphas? She stared after him. She shifted her paws, and looked up at Cedar to make sure he was setting up the hunting party. Shibaan approached Hesper, looking for advice. "Hesper, could I have a word with you?" she asked, her beautiful white fur puffed up in the cold. She looked at the Elder expectantly.

Cedar

He dipped his head slightly, before barking out a sharp command, gathering two of the other omegas from the edges of the den, and stepping out onto the snow. He would've liked to have more wolves along, but it seemed Tenn was needed elsewhere. "We'll start with searching down by the frozen creek for hare burrows, and move towards the pine grove if we can't catch any. Don't fall into the creek." Cedar started off at a quick trot, ears swiveling to catch the sounds of rabbits searching for food, paws crunching on snow. The hunting party was likely too small to bring down any large game, but it was always nice to hope for a miracle.

As they reached the creek, he slowed down to a stalk, allowing the omegas to spread out and begin to search. It wasn't anywhere near the heart-pumping excitement of the chase after big game, but it would keep the pups fed, hopefully. Hearing the quick scrape of short claws on ice, Cedar lunged, landing on a snow hare in a rather undignified pounce, snapping its spine in his powerful jaws, killing it quickly. Shaking the snow from his pelt, he looked around, noting that neither of the other omegas had made catches, not for lack of trying. They would move to the woods, then, after he cashed the prey.

Hesper

The soft yapping of the cubs roused the elder from her rest, her eyes flicked open as she woke, disappointed to be greeted by the bitter cold of the morning. Her claws scraped over the surface of the stone she lay on as she reluctantly lifted herself to her paws, limbs weakened by age. Hesper's ears pricked subtly at the sound of a familiar voice. 'Hm? Of course.' She smiled lightly and turned to face Shibaan, though her smile barely reached her eyes.

Shibaan

She looked around, making sure no wolves were trying to eavesdrop. "I'm unsure right now. The whole pack looks at me like I'm the Alpha." her blue eyes were rimmed with worry. "I'm just not sure I'm right for the position." she whispered to the Elder. "The Betas seem to think I am, and the whole pack takes my orders with no hesitation." she continues, "There's no Alpha male. No one has quite stepped up yet." she pauses, twitching her ears. "I'm worried I won't be able to lead the pack through this winter." she whispered quietly, "The game is terrible, yesterday we only caught three snow hares." she scoffed, tucking her tail close to her body.

Tenn

Tenn growled at Sylvian as he turned away to work on a proper barrier to block out the wind. He would listen to Shibaan’s orders, she was his alpha and he held no grudge against her. Sylvian was just a beta who liked bossing him around the most. Despite the orders, Tenn did want everyone to be safe.

The brown wolf wandered outside to collect bits of bark and moss, hoping to pull something together before the hunting party came back.

Sylvian

Sylvian payed Tenn's quips no mind, walking away. He'd do as he was told if he wanted to eat that night. And if he didn't, he'd find out just why he was a Beta and Tenn was an Omega. Nothing cruel, but punishment was sometimes needed to keep people in line. Something public to remind others that the Alpha's being gone was no excuse for slacking off.

With that, he set off to do his rounds, but made sure to stay near the den, in case he was needed. The sharp winter air nipped at his nose and the frozen landscape was no kinder to his paws. This was going to be their worst winter yet.

Cedar
He packed snow over the place where he had buried the rabbit, careful to mark it before they left for the grove clearing. As he was gathering the hunting party, one of them let out an exited bark, before dashing off after a small weasel. Normally, Cedar would've stopped the wolf in their tracks, calling it a waste of energy, but now...

The weasel was caught quickly enough, so they moved on, back under the tree cover, to search for bigger game. Anything bigger than a hare would be an excellent catch in this season. As they stalked, Cedar grew less and less hopeful. With the inclusion of the weasel and another couple rabbits, they had barely caught more than yesterday. Looking for beaver dens had been a waste of time, and the forest seemed empty of anything bigger. Not that they would've been able to catch it, tired as they were. "Time to head back. This should tide the pups over until we can go out again."
