Leslie lifted his head as he heard noise, turning his gaze towards it. But instantly he recognized the scent.<span style="color: #BF4000">Nyla.</span>He was happy that she was here... but also worried as he saw her limping. Was she hurt. Erika trotted over to Nyla's side as the girl came out of the shadows and nuzzled her head against her side hip gently, whining playfully.<span style="color: #BF00FF">What's wrong, Nyla?</span>Leslie was caught off guard when suddenly the girl darted to him and buried her face into his fur. He shifted to shield her a bit with his body, whimpering and nuzzling her head.<span style="color: #BF4000">Are you okay, Nyla? You look hurt. Are you upset about something?</span>He honestly didn't know what to make of her tears. Was she crying because she was so happy to see them or was she in pain, or was she scared or upset? Erika whined a bit, laying down with Nyla and laying her head against the girls back gently.<span style="color: #BF00FF">What's the matter, Nyla?<br/></span><br/><br/>Leslie caught the scent of other lycans around and he turned his head towards the smell. Pack members. And heading in the direction that he and the two girl were in. A low growl grew in his throat and he carefully got up as he heard noise from close by. The scent was stronger too. 'Erika, protect Nyla.' 'What's wrong?' Erika took soon caught onto the scent of pack members and she growled a bit too, curling around Nyla now. As the first girl stepped out, obviously overly friendly... harmless really, but Leslie wasn't going to take any chances. He growled and lowered his head in a defensive position, protecting both his sister and Nyla. He didn't want anyone near either of them, especially not members of the pack.<br/><br/>The growling got even louder as another girl stepped out behind the first. What did they want from him and his sister? They could probably tell they were lycans too, not just normal wolves... but surely they were either looking for trouble or mistaking them for part of the pack. Still, how could Leslie and Erika smell like pack? They avoided the pack as much as they could to avoid confrontation. The group was against things the two siblings supported; such as keeping the humans same, especially in Nyla's case.<span style="color: #BF4000">Why are you here? What do you want?</span>Usually Lycans could communicate the same way Leslie and Erika did with Nyla. The two girls would probably understand the question even without the words. The look in his eyes and his posture gave it away loud and clear.
