Getting up from his spot with a small grunt, Saix stood on his back two paws and walked over to the 'door' of his hut. Moving aside the skin, the blue-furred wolf looked down and met a pair of aqua colored eyes.

"Can I help you, Cloud?"

"The Elders sent me here to drop this off." He held up a small sack filled with meat. "They said you turned in early because of injuries…"

Saix nodded and took the sack, "Thank you."

"Sai… Who were you talking to earlier…?"

Raising a brow, Saix feigned confusion, "What are you talking about?"

"You were talking to someone, I heard you. There was someone here, responding to you. I know it." The smaller wolf tried to look around Saix but his view was blocked when the larger male moved into his line of vision.

"There is no one here, Cloud. You know very well that I do not like others in my hut" Golden eyes narrowed into deadly slits, "and if you think you are just going to waltz in here and accuse me of something that I did not do, I will be sure to see that you get punished. Understand?"

Cloud narrowed his eyes and did not respond.

"I asked if you understood me, you little brat."

Blond-furred ears folded back and Cloud took a step backwards, "Yes, I understand…"

"Good. Now," The larger wolf growled out, "get the fuck off of my territory before I kill you."

Dropping down to all fours, Cloud quickly turned and scrambled off to the centre of the village, leaving a trail of dust in his wake.

Turning back to walk into his home, Saix tossed the sack of meat onto a large rock. He growled lowly, "Stupid fuzzy jackass."

Looking around the hut, Saix spoke out, "You can come out now, Zexion."

Peeking out from behind a rock, Zexion looked at the wolf, "Who was that?"

"Cloud Strife. Ugh, I hate him so much. He is such a pompous ass."

"He seemed nice…"

"He thinks, just because he has a connection with all of the Elders that he can do whatever he wants. I show him that that is untrue." The wolf waved a paw towards the small sack of meat. "Eat that, you must be hungry."

Zexion dashed over to the rock that the sack was resting on, his stomach growling loudly. Nearly tearing open the sack, the human looked at the meat inside. With a small pout he stated, "It's raw."

Saix spoke from his position on the hay, "Then make a fire or some shit… I do not care…"

Looking over at the wolf, Zexion questioned, "Why are you in such a pissy mood?"

"Seeing that bastard always leaves me in a sour mood."

"Well stoppit, you're acting like an animal crawled up your ass and died."

Saix rolled over so his back was to the teenager, his ears perked up, "And you would know how that would make someone act..?"

"It's just a saying, Sai."

"Oh, I apologize then. I am not familiar with human sayings and what not. I assume you mean to just say that I am in a foul mood and need to stop."

"Exactly."

"You should teach me some of these sayings. It would be interesting to know how you humans act." The wolf rolled back over so he could watch Zexion as the boy started his fire.

Not looking at him, Zexion mumbled, "Only if you cover up, I don't know how much you can stand looking at the other wolves' 'private areas' but I don't really wanna see yours."

Stretching out, Saix smirked, "What, you do not think I have a nice body?"

Blushing lightly, the human turned to the deer meat and started to cook it over the fire. He stayed quiet, not sure how to respond to that.

The wolf chuckled and grabbed a bear skin to cover himself, "It is cold out anyway."

Looking over at him, Zexion smiled lightly, "Thank you."

"So… Are you going to tell me about yourself and your society now? I explained my story. Now it is your turn." The wolf's tail wagged back and forth.

"I guess I could…"
