Fae
Frowning at Loki's words, Fae looked around. For that matter where did Hydrus go as well? They'd been right there. "I don't know but I think we should try out Trinity's idea," Fae said. "Maybe we should get closer too." She was further away closer to Trinity but still partially in the line of fire, watching the twister in the far far distance worriedly. If this continued onwards the Shadowed Forest wouldn't be a forest anymore. Fae had counted about 10 trees that had been uprooted during their passage and many more that had branches snapped off and been ripped in half. She even thought she could hear the trees straining against their roots. As she waited for the others to voice their thoughts she kept a sharp lookout for Soul and Hydrus. A thought hit her and she raised her head, letting a howl rise into the air. It was messy, quieted by the winds as soon as it escaped her lips but she reached out, concentrating on the task at hand and threaded the gusts into the howl so it worked to her advantage. What resulted was a hollow, high-pitched call that sounded ghoulish and flimsy but it managed to break through.

Shaking himself, Kar realized his suspicions had been right. Glancing over at Allure he shifted his upper body towards her, a smirk flashing across his face as she was pushed forwards. "Careful m'lady, the winds are so strong even you could get sucked in," He intoned, amusement colouring his voice. His eyes flickered at her smirk, tilting his head in question. In response he nudged her head with his casually, immediately stiffening in surprise for a moment as the Beta wrapped herself around him. He gazed at her, a rare smile that managed to reach his cold eyes ghosting across his maw. "If you wanted to ride on my back you could have just asked," Kar's tone was light with humour, disguising the nervousness that he felt was bubbling inside him. Though he didn't mind, used to Allure's tricks this was a new one she pulled on him. With a swish of his tail he glanced upwards at the mass of dark grey and white, a particularly harsh clenching of the earth under his paws which grinded it into dust the only sign of his irritation. "Well it can't have all the fun," He mused. "I'm going see if I can find the cause of this. Maybe we can find..." Voice trailing off, his features contorting as he sneezed as the tip of the Beta's tail strayed by his nose.

WaterSinger The fae snorted, yes her shoulder was sore, but the male in front of her was the reason that now, or at least for now she was safe. Her paws settled in the ground by his head, before painfully she lays at his side, her small body curling into his side. She yawned, addng a small yip to the end of the sound, before murmuring softly.
"You need to sleep, to build your strength back up. Don't worry aboout me, it was only a branch." |

Cassiel
No, no, no, no, NO Like a mantra those words ran over and over again in his mind. Hanging from a cliff-side using his claws for gripping was a certain electricity-sparking golden-furred wolf with a single scar running down his back, on his forelegs and a collar hanging loosely around his neck, was staring at the twister blankly. Only god knows what he was doing climbing a cliff that way during a time like this but he was so intent on the twister that he didn't notice the remains of the tree that was flying towards him at break-neck speed. It crashed into him with the force of a battering ram, nearly knocking him off his perch. Swearing a storm he jammed his claws into the rock again, scowling at the twister only to have a particularly vicious gust of wind gush by like a torrent, making him pinwheel around on the spot in one full circle. His face twisted in fury, electricity started to sizzle and spark from his body until he was covered in it. It writhed and coiled maniacally. The creature that threw itself from the cliff at the twister was a beast of raw electricity with no form, no shape only the intent to kill. To kill for taking away the only place he'd ever felt at home.
A billow of deafening thunder rocked the skies as he landed in it, hovering in mid-air for a moment. The wind tore at him, stealing and grabbing at his electricity but he dragged it back, consuming it. Above him a fork of lightning created in a moment of passion struck him and an explosion that was like a nova going out lit the tornado followed by an unearthly howl of raw electricity and thunder that seemed to come from the heavens above. From out of the tornado he was spat out, smoke trailing from his charred body. Cassiel hit the ground with a thud far away from the twister, crackling with electric sparks weakly. After a moment of stillness he bleakly opened his eyes, gazing up at the sky and an astonishing thing happened. They were clear as if he was seeing the world for the first time. "Hello again," He whispered in a broken voice before closing his eyes. He thought he saw some other wolves nearby but they weren't of his pack. I wonder if they're friendly was his last thought before darkness took him.

Kerrigon
For a brief moment, the arrested brute thought the smear of brown, tawny and black bouncing his way was a vestige of a tree cruelly torn and tossed his way, but then through the dust-ridden wind he recognized Reiko. There were occasions where he had been more relieved to find one of his own. “The other leaders and I have tried fighting it once already.”[/b] The bass voice was taunt with frustration. The appearance of static between the tsarina’s fangs strengthened his resolve to do something, anything, to end this nightmare. But now was not the time for heroics. He had his obligations elsewhere. “We must find the other Fire wolves.”[/b] Eyes, glowing even more brightly beneath their darkness, eyed the tempest and surrounding lands. “I believe I saw more wolves as I came here… If you are here from the packlands, I fear there are others as well.”[/b]

Reiko
Her ears perked at the sound of his bass voice, she grew more and more exited as the danger became clear. "Yes, that is the best idea. The wind tribe already seems to have gotten a plan going, maybe we could start too." What she said was more of a statement, there was no questions running through her mind, she was ready to try anything if Kerrigon said it.
Her dark hazel eyes scanned the scenery, and there, a black Fae. "That is probably Allure over there with another..." She could not make out who it was Allure was with, but she knew that the charcoal Fae was there. She looked up to Kerrigon, waiting for any orders.
Aurora Borealis
"I think so too Fae. But remember, we don't want to create a wind stronger than the twister, we want to equalize the air by just shifting it. Creating one too strong just might split it or only shift it's own wind spiral. Precision is the key...." She said, she hope they all thought of the same thing, she knew the air and knew that creating a stronger wind that the twister it<s self could only worsen their problems.

Ronin
Ronin burst out of the Shadowed Forest, his legs so tired that they felt like they could drop off at any given moment. He could make out quite a few outlines, and he decided to pursue a larger group, hoping he had picked right. He stopped short of hitting one of them. He gasped for breath, the wind not helping at all. He stood, still, and bowed down to both his Beta and his Alphess, dropping a quick, but happy greeting. "Ronin, reporting for duty, sir and ma'm!" He said, gasping between words, before looking up at the storm. He had so much he wanted to ask his tribe-mates, but he had no time as the screaming twister approached ever so close.

Fae
Listening to her Alphess as she let her howl die on the currents, Fae's expression shifted to one of contemplation. Aurora was right. This would prove harder than she thought. She hoped that her call had reached her absent pack-mates but even more worried she was for Hydrus. There was no telling where he was. Though she knew he was fast and swift these winds made it hard for anyone to find anyone. Not to mention he could be hurt. Fae gazed up at the darkened skies worry entering her eyes in spoke in an unusually quiet voice, "Aurora, what if they're hurt, or injured? I don't know, maybe I should go look." She kept her head lowered, tone respectfu

Ghost
Crossing the terrain in long, assured strides the wolf that was running across the earth almost seemed to be flying whilst running, a silver blur hurtling across the earth. Of course that was only an illusion. In his gait with every step a short stub of ice formed and he used it as a springboard to gain speed and momentum. As soon as his pads left it the ice dissolved into mist, blown away by the wind. Ghost was aptly named. As his paws hit the ground barely any noise sounded from them, so quickly he touched mother nature. Like a phantom the wolf had appeared on the outskirts, expecting to come back to the place he called home in hopes of rejoining his pack but now his face was filled with fury, marring his noble features. Ghost was a warrior but he wasn't so foolish enough to try and fight something he could not physically touch. He hoped that wolf he'd seen try such a crazy stunt had received help by now. As he neared the mainlands he saw the monster in the distance, a mere speck at this vantage point and slowed down to an easy trot. Chest heaving slightly as he regained his breath, he glanced around for any pack members or anyone for that matter. Relief broke his face as he saw familiar wolves near a fallen pine tree. If memory served him correctly one of them was a healer, Lenalee. Maybe she could help the wolf he'd seen. "Thank the gods," He said in a voice with a rough undercurrent quite the opposite of his kind face.

Aurora
"Why hello Ronin." Her crystalline voice chimed casually to the new comer, she giggled at how formal he was. "You don't need to be so formal with me, just call me Aura." She smiled sweetly to Ronin. She didn't mind ma'am, just between friends and pack mates she felt more at home when they used her name. As the wind picked up, it wiped her smile right off her face. A small tree, thin but sturdy enough whiped through the air in a horrifying break neck speed, it rocketed towards the group of wolves. A whimper and painful screech escaped her maw, a small tree had just hit her leg, and the branch was protruding out of it, a gastly sight as it was a through and through. Its original owner broke off and continiued to fly off in another direction after bashing into her leg.
Her fur turned into air at the pain, wisping away as the tornado crept closer. For once a serious look took over Aurora's face. "It is no time to go looking for the others yet. We must get rid of this... this thing right away before any fatalities break out." Her voice was surprisingly calm, the pain in her leg was extraordinary, but she felt that acting like it hurt less than it did would cause less panic. She lifted her head in one last call, a silvery howl breezed from her maw, it was just as soft as her own voice. "It is time to start, this wind is too strong to let it go any longer." She turned toward the beast as her own wind started to pick up a little bit. The blood seeping from her wound created a red river on her ghostly pelt as it dripped to reach the ground, the wooden splinter still protruding from her gashing and now bruised wound.

Kerrigon
The tsar turned his crown in the appropriate direction, dark brows angled over narrowed eyes as he attempted to identify the figure through the dusty haze. It did indeed appear to be Allure, and was that Kar she was speaking to? “An excellent idea, Reiko. We will form our own plan and do what we can to help the Wind Tribe.” The wind suddenly gusted with tremendous strength, buffeting his frame and causing the crimson sparks to ripple and crackle more energetically across his pelt. Was the twister growing stronger? They had to act quickly if they wished to save themselves and Fallamora. His gaze, hard with determination, found Reiko’s. “Let us stay together and go to Allure and Kar, if that is him, since we are the ones who can see them.” The Fire Lord paused after a few steps, to ensure that Reiko was near.

Hydrus
An unsavory but spectacular crash would have announced the brute’s arrival, if the spotlight had not been stolen by the howling torrent of wind that had invoked his fall in the first place. Hydrus rose unsteadily to his paws, immediately pulling his battered wings to his sides. One of them throbbed something terrible, and the dark fear that he had broken it edged its way into his mind. But he had more important things to worry about. The storm had separated him from his pack as they had fled their homeland. Had they all made it here? Or had they been tossed about like a ship caught in the callous gripe of the sea as he had? “TRINITY!! FAE!!” His howl seemed futile in the might of the tempest, but it was the best he could hope for, unless he somehow magically stumbled across the rest of his pack. But not even Hydrus was that optimistic.

(Apologies for the shortness, I have a race to go to soon.)
Damn this accursed wind to hell. If she lived through this, Geneva vowed to never offer another prayer to the wind gods ever again, if this was how they paid back her respects. Ears pinned flat to her tiara, the eldress cut through the tempest at a carefully measured pace. The cyclone of air was behind her, roaring like an injured demon, and she hoped salvation was ahead.

Lester
For once, Lester was not completely in control. It was a disconcerting feeling, and certainly not one he ever wished to experience again. Crown low to the lithosphere, he knifed through the wind like a thrown dagger, as if he could actually outrace this disaster! So intent was he on escaping, he did not notice Ghost and Lenalee until he had nearly stumbled into them. “Apologies,” he murmured to the pair. Though never one for sincerities, this phenomenon had prompted some sort of buried formality in his character. Perhaps inwardly, instinctively, he knew that he was unlikely to escape this storm on his own.

Allure
That devilish smirk transformed into a warm smile which was reserved for very few who crossed the fae's path. A black plume waved to and fro in amusement from his reaction and words alike. A ride? I wouldn't want to hold you back from your tornado wrangling adventure. I surely won't want to be the first to be inhaled by the winds if it came to you and I. The wolfish grin spread further along her feminine maw, a sign of simple fun between the two.
As the scenario of the ravage twister having its way spun through her mind her amusement was crushed by one question Are any others of the Fire Tribe here? Crimson pools focused on Kar, a hint of worry glimmering, a feeling that was rare for Allure and even more rare for her to allow another witness.
