Blade lay with an arm wrapped protectively around Silver, pulling her snuggly to his chest in a protective cuddle. A white tipped black ear gave a flick as he locked gazes with the emotionless green eyes of the young girl. Those eyes disturbed him, and a low growl rumbled in his chest. Silver stirred, but still hadn't woken up yet, deeply exhausted from their trek. His blue eyes gave the girl a wary glare before he spoke. "Who are you? What's your name?" The little girl, looking to be around nine, looked as if she was relieved that Blade hadn't gone and just attacked her without asking questions, speaking in a slightly high pitched voice, the trembling in it far from fake. "I...I'm.. Um.. A-Alexa. I..s-saw f..fire and c-came b-because it's..um.. C-cold." Blade gave her a hard stare, before nodding slowly. Releasing Silver for a moment, he tended the fire, looking at the girl and giving a soft sigh. "Alright, we'll talk more in the morning, but for now just come by the fire and sleep." And with that, he pulled Silver close to him once more. Blade slowly began to fall into a light sleep, still alert and not yet shifting his ears and tail away. She might be young, but Blade refused to take any chances. Those hardened, emotionless green eyes of Alexa's still set him on edge.

Alexa watched as the man, Blade, fell back asleep with the woman in the gray dress pulled to him. Blade seemed wary of Alexa, something she would have to change. The plan wouldn't work if she was suspected as a Dark. So, while sitting by the fire, she began thinking of plans. She could try to get the man attached to her but... No, that wouldn't work. But... What about the woman? Yes, she would act innocent, and make the woman believe that Alexa thought of her as a mother figure. So that way, when the plan kicked into action, the woman would be to shocked and heartbroken to fight. Just thinking of it made Alexa giggle quietly and insanely. She couldn't wait to see tears shed and blood spilled. She couldn't wait to sink her fangs into someone and rip their flesh from their bones. So, thinking of the, she laid down and fell into a 'happy' sleep

Blade was in his wolf form once more, as his blue gaze wandered around. Where was he? Giving a soft sigh, the large brute padded forward, paws crunching in snow. Then, the familiar screeching filled his ears. Blade almost ran towards the noise, but paused, images of the last dream that was like this in his mind. He didn't want to see anything like that ever again. So, he turned tail and fled. And the scenery melted into something else.

Blade stopped and stared in shock. It was that same white wolf and her pack, and they padded forward and greeted him again. He slipped through the playful nips and warm muzzles, confusion sharp, and came face up face with the white alpha, his deep blue gaze locking with her piercing blue. He simply gave a growl, standing to his full height, matching her size. "Why am I here?! Why have you come into my dreams twice?!" His bark was sharp, and the white alpha replied with a bone chilling smile. "Hmm. Cute one you are. And you'll find out about me soon enough. For now, I'll leave you to wonder." She called her pack to get with a sharp bark, and turned to leave, saying one last thing before she left. "Also, beware of the black clawed lynx. It intends to hurt you deeply. Keep those that are dearest to you close." And with that, she left, leaving Blade to chase after her and her pack once more.

Alexa padded around in her form, golden fur stifling in the breeze and yellow-brown gaze traveling around. Yes, she was fully aware she would never live this dream. It seemed like some sort of sick joke that she was even dreaming this. Suddenly, the short lived scene melted away, leaving her to gaze up in fear at the huge black animal in front of her

She gave a soft whimper as her leader sent her for more feirce training. She had failed her mission. She had failed to protect one of the kings little ones, and it had been ripped to pieces. This was her punishment, she deserved it. Yet, she couldn't stop herself from trembling in fear. For the next few years, she would be beaten, tortured, and ruthlessly trained till she was just an emotionless pet to the king, sent to do his dirty work. And if she died, then her clan would get a small meal. Then it melted away into something else

Alexa stood over the trembling young boy, a cold smile curling her lips. Yes, this was a dream she liked. Her hardened, emotionless gaze bore into the pleading brown eyes of the young boy, and she gave a crazed giggle. "Ah, well, you should be a fun toy." The king had told her to just grab a body, shifter or not. They needed food. Meat. And they preferred to eat other predators, even if it was their own kind. So, she released him, letting him run off a bit before pouncing and sinking her fangs into the nearest limb, then letting go and repeating the process. And as she played with him, her crazed childish giggling filled the woods. A pleasant and amazing dream for her.

Silver was breathing heavily, her paws pounding the ground. Insane laughter followed her, a pack of shadows with emotionless and insane eyes running after. She tried over and over to lose them, but more would just fill the places of those she lost. What was this?! As she continued her frantic run, her paw caught, and she stumbled. It was a small stumble, but it was a perfect move for the beasts following her. She was swarmed, and let out harsh cries of pain as fangs sank deeply into every part of her, ripping the flesh from her bones. The crazed giggling and laughing filled her ears, and she looked for an escape. Instead, she found two black beasts battling over a large chunk of flesh adorned with gray fur patterned black. After a moment of thinking, the realization suddenly clicked, and she stared in horror. They were eating her alive. Pain thrummed through her as she watched animals battle over chunks of her, when a sharp prick was felt on her belly. She turned just in time to see her belly ripped open and gore spilling out. And then it faded away, and she jolting awake, shaking violently and screaming, her eyes golden and filled with panic. She still felt teeth sinking into her, and she threw whoever was near her away, shifting until she looked like some sort of human-standing lynx.
