Bachelor Days [T&R] (open)

[-sira-]

I can communicate with those not of my kind.
With someone like me.

 "Tag... It's taaaaaaag..." 
 "Tug...?"
"No, no, no... Not a "ugh" sound... And "ag" sound. A-a-a-a... Tag..." it was yet another day of vocal lessons with his little companion. They had recently found each other from a previous adventure in the abandoned cabin. It was now time for them to learn their proper names. They may not speak the same, but he has now been able to distinguish squeaks from other squeaks. It's been a up quiet difficult week.  "This is useless... Your name is quiet confusing... I don't get what sound you're making, wolf!" he wasn't quiet able to understand that one, but from the tone it was rather frustrated. But he was as well. "Don't worry, we will get it eventually, twig..." over the past week he was able to figure out his name was not stick, it was twig. He felt rather foolish for that slight mistake.

 "I will come back later, I have gathering to do!" he watched as twig had scrambled up a near by tree. It was that time of day again, he had to gather for the next few days. A nest and for food. Tag didn't worry about this, the first day he did, but when he had done it day after day and still returned his worry went away. He wasn't quiet sure where ricochet was at, but there was a possibility he was just hunting. He had don most of the hunting recently, maybe today he should contribute. But first, to figure out where his bachelor friend had gone.

I know there is more I need to learn.
Maybe one day our words will become one.

Where had he gone?

Well that was a good question..

But first there are a few things to clear up. Ricochet hated Twig and Tag's word learning sessions. He could not truly understand the sqeaks that came from the small creature's mouth and it agrivated him more than anything for the lack of the ability. Not only was it the lack of the ability to talk to the creature, but rather, how more time was spent trying to teach Twig when to him, it seemed hopeless.

Ricochet had since spent more and more time hunting or exploring to the boundrys of the territory, hitting a scent line and then turning back. Mostly it was just to do something, the male was board out of his mind since he had been stirred up by the double headed female. Although Ricochet had been nowhere near attracted to the female there was something about her that stirred up the better half of his old memories. The thought of Sara.

But she was in the past and there would be a rare rare chance the she was even alive at this point. A year and half younger than him, Sara was a "stunner". Beauty at the top of it's game. A lean and long legged female with a great personality. Black fur and bangs that hung around her neck and face. If the pack hadn't drove him out he could have been a pack wolf with pups. Ricochet had the uttermost feeling of grief when he was forced to leave. Maybe there was a chance they lived. Maybe if the alpha who Sara was supossed to be mate to hadn't killed her. It was doubt though and hopelessness that Ricochet felt for her.

Now he had came back. Phew. Twig training over for now. Thank the gods above. As he troted down a hill with doe leg in mouth, Ricochet sighed. Tag was his best friend. But it seemed like Twig was driving them apart.

He didn't have to search long, ricochet had come into sight with food for the day.  "Hello my good friend! How are you doing this afternoon?" he trotted up to greet his fellow bachelor mate. Lately, he felt the pull between then ever since twig had arrived. At times he was glad twig had stuff to do daily. He misses his day after day antics with ricochet. In fact, ricochet was his first friend that wasn't his family.

There was one thing that tug at him. They were bachelors, and he knew it was mating season, he had hoped a female wouldn't tear their friendship apart.  "How about we do some exploring... Again" it was all they really needed to do now and days. They knew the land around them, so they would just be retracing their steps. But it does help incase they need to suddenly pick up and move.

I know there is more I need to learn.
Maybe one day our words will become one.

As the male streach and set the doe leg down he smiled. No Twig in sight for now. Tag seemed in a cheery time to get going and that suited Ricochet just fine. His time here had struck him hard for some strange reason normally Sara would stay strictly in the past- Never to be brought up in his head. Ricochet knew their was no use to think about someone who wasn't here and now.

Gotta live by fate and little bit of luck.

Standing firmly his nails kneading the ground he spoke as he looked to the South,"Just fine as I could be on this wonderfully muggy day." His sarcastic wit came though again as he smiled his crooked grin. He felt better when it was just him and Tag, but a ache of a tad of jelousy came over him when the two were together. He couldn't really be blamed though, he was younger and liked to get attention. Not like a teenager, but he still like the attention.

Maybe it would be a great time to move. Get away from this place and head South. The pack grounds were pretty far away so it gave them some leisure so that they wouldn't have to travel a couple miles and turn around. Unless, of course, Tag wanted to join a pack. He pushed those thoughts aside and, instead, voiced his opinions on their travels,"Sounds like a charming idea. Lets head South." He looked back his friend with a fairly excited smile,

"I really want to see those geyser things agian"
