Crossing the border was surprisingly easy for Matthew and Mathias and from what they can tell there's not a soul in sight, "I don't like this Matt." Mathias whispers hoarsely gripping the barrel of his gun tightly as his pointed ears move in every direction trying to pick up any sound, "It doesn't feel right." Just as he says it both can smell something on the wind. "Do you smell…an Omega?"
Matthew nods knowing that Omega's scent anywhere but he knows that if they can smell Alfred then anyone downwind of the Neko can smell him and his preheat as well and what's worse is while he can probably resist his urges what about the Fox standing right beside him, "Mathias…you need to stay back until his week is over." What he doesn't say is if they make it to the end of his week without being spotted by the enemy.
"I understand Matthew but we need to find him soon before one of the Death squad members find him…" He's actually amazed that the Neko has survived this long alone. Although he knows the Neko Omega is a skilled pilot it's still hard to wrap his mind around it. He stops realizing that the hairs on Matthew's neck are sticking straight up, "What is it?" Instantly he's on guard as Matthew looks into the scope attached to his rifle.
Matthew scans the area with his pointer finger resting beside the trigger until he sees an albino wolf with what looks like a small auburn kitten in his arms. But what gets the Alpha's finger to jump to the trigger is the sight of his old friend seemingly following behind. He slows his breathing slightly sure that the white haired wolf is holding Alfred hostage and using the kitten to keep his hold on him. While he could easy drop the Alpha the small kitten or worse Alfred could get hurt not to mention that they'd alert every Squad member in the surrounding area to their location. So reluctantly he moves his finger away and lowers his rifle, "Mathias we have to get closer…I can't get him from here."
The Dane smirks slightly as he pulls out a large ax like weapon, "Relax Matt I got it from here."
"Where the hell did you get that? And…where was it?"
A devious smirk appears on Mathias' face, "I'm a Fox, Matthew. I know a thing or two about how to hide things." He gives a wink as he starts to creep forward as Matthew stays to the shadows both making sure to stay downwind of the trio slowly walking towards what looks like an abandoned barn. "We need to get to them before they get to that building." Matthew answers with a simple nod as they silently follow their prey.
Meanwhile Alfred can't help but whimper slightly feeling his whole body start to ache. He slows his pace for a moment waiting for the wave of pain leave when he spots what looks like a fox Alpha slowly advancing on them. All he can think to do is let out a low hiss as his tail whips around frantically. He's unarmed for the moment letting Gilbert hold on to his weapon until their mating is over and he can get his emotions back under control. He didn't want to and now he's regretting it dearly, "Gilbert."
The Wolf has already stopped now staring at the Dane with hatred in his eyes, "What do you vant?" He growls out holding Crina tighter to his chest incase the fox decides to attack.
Only now does Matthew appear beside Mathias, "We just want our friend." He says calmly trying to defuse the situation. Gilbert follows Matthew's gaze to the Omega behind him, "Just give us the Neko and the kitten and we'll leave." As he says it his hand never leaves his rifle still tightly held in his hands.
"Nein." Gilbert answers coldly as Alfred's tail slows to a halt. "He is my Mate and I von't let you take him or my daughter." He's about to reach for his gun when Alfred lays a hand on his shoulder, "Alfred…"
Now it's Alfred's turn to step forward and with a sheepish grin he turns to Matthew, "Bro…um I c-can so explain but r-right now I ah…" He pauses trying to focus, "I need to mate with my…well my mate."
Matthew just stares at him with his mouth agape, "Your….mate?" He's certain he didn't hear right but to his further amazement Alfred nods. "Al you can't-"
Quickly Alfred cuts him off, "Mattie he's my mate and right now I don't think we have the t-time to argue!" All three Alpha's can see his clear distress as his pain intensifies and his scent completely changes to a sickly sweet aroma, "I can e-explain in a few days just take care of Crina for us." He knows he can trust the Canadian with the small girl so he nudges Gilbert to hand her over as Mathias steps back holding a hand to his nose.
He's reluctant to let the allied Sniper touch her but he knows she can't stay with them for the week so as he hands her over he growls out a warning, "If you harm a hair on my daughter's head I'll rip your throat out." He's actually impressed when Matthew doesn't even bat an eye as he slings the rifle of his shoulder before taking Crina into his arms and motions towards the darkened barn.
After quickly checking the barn for any signs of life Gilbert nods escorting the Neko inside and closes the large wooden doors, "She'll be okay with them." Alfred manages before pressing his lips to the Wolf's feeling a slight relief in Gilbert's touch, "Mattie will treat her like one of his own."
Gilbert nods lowering the Neko down into a soft hay pile feeling Alfred's tail curl around his waist as the Neko lets out a warm purr. "I know he will Alfred." Soon in the confined space Alfred's pheromones overcomes the albino Wolf and the only thing on his mind now is making Alfred his and only his.
Crina looks up at her temporary guardian with a curious smile, "Friend?" She asks quietly before looking at the fox in wonder, "Fluffy."
Matthew manages to stifle a chuckle as he nods, "Sure little one but who is that Alpha wolf with you?" He's still not completely sure if he can trust Gilbert but if she's anything like his daughter she won't be able to lie to him or at least as easily.
She grins up at him proudly as she purrs, "He's my Daddy."
Chuckling he sits down scanning the area, "Matthew…you can't be serious."
"I am Mathias and I told you before I'm not leaving without him."
"But you can't believe that…there's no way she's his daughter." Mathias says it before slowly sitting down next to Matthew, "How do we know she's not lying?"
"I don't but she has no reason to."
"True…" Mathias looks down at her before patting her head softly, "Alright Matt…but only because the kid's cute."
