Renrin occasionally had his ambitious plans but tonight he might have been pushing the limitâ€¦ He was pretty sure he thought it through enough though. He watched from his hidden place the merchant wagon he had been stalking. The Shadow was actually lucky as most travelled in caravan but Renrin figure this was some upstart trying to get his foot in the world. The poor soul didnâ€™t even seem to care about the dangers of these woods, probably thinking it silly superstition.<br/><br/>Things got even better when the merchant stopped to make camp for the night. Renrin smiled and stalked closer, carefully moving to avoid sound and slipping in and out of shadows. Only the horse seemed to have a hint that something was wrong, shifting uncomfortably while its owner went about setting up camp. The Shadow waited till the man was focused on unhitching his before bolting out to the wagon and then suddenly melding with the shadow under it.<br/><br/>The man caught the movement out of the corner of his eye but before he could look the horse bolted (luckily without the wagon) and knocking him over in the process. The man could only watch as the beast took off leaving him all alone. After he got up he checked to see what it was he had seen and had scared his horse but ultimately could not find anything. Giving a tired and annoyed sigh, he started off to try and retrieve his horse hoping it didnâ€™t run far. He didnâ€™t get very far though as he turned his back Renrin leapt from the wagonâ€™s shadow upon the man and snapped his neck.<br/><br/>Now free of distractions, the wolf hoped up onto the wagon and began sniffing around at the manâ€™s wares. He found some salted meats and jerky which will be a nice addition to the packs storesâ€¦ or rather his store and who ever wants it needs to pay him somehow. There was a bag of coin and he found a small package of jewelry, if Renrin had to guess it was meant as a present for the manâ€™s female interest back where ever he came from. Among the boxes and bags there was also some spices, one not completely sealed and Renrin spent a minute sneezing to clear out what had went up his nose. The he came to the barrels and if his noise was right they were the true find. Several barrels filled with assorted alcoholic beverages. A big fanged grin spread across his muzzle letting his shiny white fangs out to be seen.<br/><br/><br/>It took a while but eventually he was able to move everything from the wagon to his little lair/shop. While he couldâ€™ve tried to take the wagon, the narrow paths, uneven terrain, and brush wouldâ€™ve made it impossible so instead he grabbed and flew what he could a little at a time. Everyone else was just starting to get moving when he just about finished. Renrin was usually up before everyone to do his collecting because once the villagers locked their doors for the night it made his job much harder.<br/><br/>He had made a good haul today, picked up a few things at the village and now he had an entire wagon of goods. Depending on the wants (and perhaps needs) of his fellow pack mates his shop should be fairly set for the next or twoâ€¦ maybe less.<br/><br/>After making all those trips he needed a drink though so once he made sure all his stuff was put away properly headed over to the stream. He could smell Haru and Riamost as he got closer. Once he came out of the brush he gave the Alpha a respectful nod and the lovely female a smile before he got himself his drink. He didnâ€™t say anything for now, didnâ€™t want to interrupt the Alpha if he was in the middle of something with Haru. Besides if either of them needed something theyâ€™d be coming to him for goods and working out trades.
