Even with the dwindling numbers of the pack, the surrounding area had become much too cramped for his liking. If anyone were to need him they would have to wait or figure out their issues for themselves for the time being. <br/><br/>The brute wandered into the forest, though not aimlessly. Zuya spent a good portion of the afternoon scent-marking the area. Recent snowfall had begun to cover up the scent of the pack, leaving the pack and himself susceptible to possible intruders and unwanted company. He had purposely ventured further than most of Kiowa's territory, claiming more of the nearby forest as his own. The chilly wind carried many unfamiliar scents, but one in particular grew stronger as he ventured further into territory that was known to have wandering wolves and a small, neighboring pack. It may have been unwise for the alpha to be venturing so far, alone, however, Zuya knew how to pick and choose his fights. He thoroughly trusted himself. His keen intuition had protected him many times before and now would be no different. <br/><br/>Zuya continued tracking the scent until he was able to see exactly who it belonged to. It was a dark-pelted female, presumably a nomad (Lavi). Zuya kept his distance, though he circled the area surrounding her. This was to be sure that he caught no other scents on the wind, no one who may have been accompanying the mysterious female. When Zuya was satisfied with his negative findings, he made his company known to the female by breaking small branches and twigs under her paws as he crept behind her. A twitch of her ears advised him that she had heard him loud and clear. Zuya allowed her the time to react before starting to approach her, slowly. There was an odd aura that radiated off the female. He had felt it long before he spotted her, which was the reason he had been curious enough to seek her out in the first place. He needed to know if this wanderer was actually a wanderer or a threat to the pack. Zuya now stood a few yards from the female, though he made no attempt to speak with her first. Instead, he stood quietly, waiting for her to acknowledge him or leave if she chose to. <br/><br/><strong>“”</strong><br/><br/></span></span>
