Returning Stray(Open)

[LAD]

Camille

After a rather long but quickly cut off discussion of their what they were going to do, the group had taken off. For a while Camille had stayed at the front with Ducarious - should he have been up here too - and she kept a steady pace going. Every now and then she would look to the others to see if they were keeping up fairly well but overall she was eager to see her child. It was a rather quick journey between the lands before she slowed down incredibly so, flicking her tail to hush those behind her. They were at the border.

"If you all have just ended a battle, we should keep in mind not to intrude to hasty. They may be wary upon our entrance." Camille commented softly, then turned to Sinna and Vaska. "I think you two should lead us in. That way they will not be so ready to attack - besides," A small smile crossed her maw, "It was you who came to get us, after all, dear Sinna." She looked to Ducarious to see if this was okay with him, but overall they were at the edge of the border with perfect opportunity to waltz in. And she was excited.

Sinna & Revolt

The group came to a stop at the border, and Sinna opened her maw to let out a roar- but Camille interrupted her. Yes, she was probably right, leading them in was a better idea. Still, the closer they would get to camp, she would eventually let out a warning; for those feisty ones that likely weren't settled from battle. The 'ess smirked as she was called upon directly, and she curtly nodded, giving her brother a shove before stepping to the front.

"They'll likely just be confused as to why you are here, in which place I'll quickly dish out an explanation. I highly doubt they will be hostile... Just unsettled, if anything." She said, before turning and flicking her tail for the others to follow. It was hard to hold back the roar in her throat to call mother and Camry, she knew how happy it would make the both of them to see their families again. Sinna wasn't aware that only a short time ago, during her absence, her half brothers and sisters had been born.

Revolt let his tongue loll for a moment, the trip was longer than he had liked, but then again he wasn't the most active of people, either. Still, he followed, inside eager to see his brother in his new home. It could have made him snicker to know he was already delved into pride drama, he was sure Camry LOVED that. On the flip side, his new 'mate' seemed like she had quite the back-bone, Revolt was jelous.

Just to... Kinda get this moving a bit.

Camille, Yasha, Kardei, Camry, Jericho, Yasbi

Camille and the group followed along dutifully. But it wasn't long that they were entering the clearing of the pride were the camp was probably based. Her eyes flicked around curiously until they spotted a small group of creatures off to one side who abruptly stood at the presence of them.

Yasha, Kardei, Jericho and Yasbi had all been talking quietly among themselves when scents entered the camp and they all stood. Yasbi's fur rose in distaste before it settled when she realized they looked like Camry - and with Jericho's tail laying upon her flank she followed his nod and caught sight of Sinna at the head of the group. Her brow furrowed but as Jericho stepped forward, she said nothing. Yasha and Kardei merely stood there as back-up for whatever was happening. They had no reason to be hostile - and Yasha felt a small surge of pride as her son stepped forward, standing tall in that moment to face the group.

Jericho had been the first to notice them and the first to stand. When Kardei and Yasha stepped forward, he flicked an ear, halting their movements. And when Yasbi began to bristle, he laid a tail gently upon her flank to calm her down - catching sight of Sinna and.. Wasn't that little Vaska? He had sure grown up at this moment. Knowing Sinna probably hated him because of what happened but knowing business needed to be done he stepped forward, past Kardei and Yasha and Yasbi. He wouldn't order any of them around - his family didn't need that but he wouldn't stand by while he had no idea who they were.

Obviously probably part of Camry's family though. He'd seen the adolescent walking around a bit ago. He turned his head in that general direction and chuffed. Then turned back to the group. "I would assume this is our alliance, Sinna? If so, I do believe you are most welcome - although we're not exactly in the greatest of shapes." His voice was polite, masked, guarded, and maybe even a little relieved. If they were the allianced group - then La Morte had help. Yasbi had really just been filling him in on everything he missed and it was tiresome to take it all in, but he had none the less. He turned his head to look at Yasbi as she darted off in the other direction - heading towards the dens and such. Yet it was still only slightly confusing as to why they had all come here to begin with. Vaska he could understand, but this many of the group?

Here in the dens, Yasbi looked around for Reno or Najisi, chuffing loudly in a slight summons to call out to them. "The Guild is here, with Sinna at the lead." She told anyone who appeared - making sure that Reno or Najisi was among them, before she trotted back to her brother's side. He needed the support.

On another note though, Camry had heard the chuff directed at him, calling him. But for a few minutes he ignored it - until the wafted scents crossed his nose. His eyes widened and he got to his paws slowly, his body still aching from being practically crushed by Donato. Limping, Camry made his way to the clearing and then froze eyes wide. There was Sinna at the lead... And then Vaska. And his mother. And father. And Revolt and Leona! He tried to lunge forward before stumbling - his body still freaking hurt but he moved none the less at the fastest gate possible. He paused only briefly to reach over and nuzzle Sinna, welcoming of her return, pulling back her looked her over, and searched her eyes for a moment, asking subtly if she was okay - as okay as one could get after losing their sister.

But the moment didn't last as he was suddenly overcome with warmth and nuzzles and hugs as his mother lurched forward and grasped him. "Hey ma." His voice - which had not been used the past hour, had cracked a bit. He cleared his throat, nuzzling Camille back, and then pulling back himself. "What are you all doing here?"

Sinna & Revolt

Sinna stood higher as members rose up, tension obviously gathering around those who didn't know who they were encountering. No matter, she showed confidence leading them to further prove that things were alright, and that there was no threat. As Jericho stepped into her path, she slowed to a stop, ears wanting desperately to fold down in hostility- but now was not the time for bitching. "Yes, this is our alliance." She replied curtly, not feeling to say any more until her mother or Reno appeared.

Her darker ears flicked as Camry wiggled into the scene, a smirk lightly grazed her face at his exasperation; she could tell he was happy to see them, nearly tripping over himself to get to them. She prepared to move, but she was happy that Camry at least stopped to check up on her beforehand. Smiling, she nodded to dismiss the worry about her, and stepped aside to let him reunite with his mother.

Revolt stepped forward to shove his shoulder a bit, snickering, "You look like you've had a run in with a shark, brother!" Because indeed, to him, it was funny.

Sinna only slightly worried on he wounds, but she was confident he would be alright soon, for now she turned to address the rest of the on-looker's. "I took the news of what happened in the battle to Vaska, I figured he- and our allies- deserved to know in a timely manner. I brought him home to mourn his sister, with the escort from Camry's family..."

She turned, looking directly to her betrothed once more, tone lowering for only his ears this time, and the corners of her lips twitching upward. "Figured you'd want to see your family too, since I was seeing mine." She was very sure at this point what she did was beneficial- despite the questionable looks from some- she felt good about bringing her brother home for this, and she hoped mother would think the same...
