Meisha's ears sprang up into the air at the pack members statement. {Oh, you do?} Her voice was filled with relief despite the alpha's efforts to quell the emotion. She expected he was scared that she would take offense to the gesture due to the high level of submission he showed. {Tell me then...}
Meisha hoped his suspicions would be correct and that he may be able to lead the pack. He seemed competent her only thought was his silence. A cold wind blew through the glade rustling the pine trees free of snow and rippling the Alpha's fur. She raised her nose a sniffed the air. {Oh my... } Her eyes filled with dread and her ears flicked back against her skull. {Tell me quick!} She snapped unintentionally {A blizzard blows in.}

Terisa aswered the Sigma politely {I shall be fine, i just need some rest} she said and with a bit of difficulty she sat of slightly hunched over as the wind blowing was getting stronger... Being only a year out of the care of adult wolves she still prefered to take coverage from them rather then herself so she asked many questians until she was sure {why is the wind stronger now?... is the pack in trouble?...are we ever going to live in warmth again?... why does the alpha look worried} were all questians she asked laving quick inteervels, her fur was thick being half Arctic wolf but not as thick as is needed to be to become efficient enough for this sort of coldness.

Nefearia rolled his shoulders back and lifted his head to address her, {I believe that now we sit in a snowy bank between to forests. Behind me a snow field should stretch a quite far, then end in a bank of packed snow that rides up into a forest. To my right should be a long path that spreads out to a once grassy plain. In front of me and behind you is the same thing that is behind me. And to our left, I believe, is our way out.}

Shadow shook her head in response to the sigma's inquiry. {No. I just saw her collapse, that's all...} Turning her golden gaze to Terisa, she added, {I doubt you'll get to rest right now... This winds smells of a blizzard approaching...}

Meisha gasped slightly. This wolf did seem to know exactly where they were. "Well seeing as you know the way, would you care to lead us for now? If not them simply walk up front with me and show me the way.} Meisha felt stupid for accepting help, but her pride was nothing compared to the lives of her pack.
Meisha then stood and raised her head to the sky letting out a long howl. Attention drawn she announced in the loudest voice she could muster. { We're moving out! Here is the formation we travel in. Whelps and Gamma's in the center Sigma's will also travel mostly in the center but they will go wherever help is needed. Outside them will be the Omega's Upsilon's and Theta's just outside them will be Kappa's and Omicron's. Up front with me will be two Zeta's and the adviser.}
She paused and turned to Nefearia {You'll travel up front with me also.} She then turned back to the pack and continued {The rest of the Zeta's will man the edges. This organized formation though normally not used will protect any young or old from the blizzard. Sigma's remember that no one that can be saved is to die on your watch. Am i understood!} She called to the whole crowd her eyes scanning across her pack members squarely. {Zeta's please report to me before you take your position} She called above the bustling wolves.

Aiedail nodded when the alpha had finished talking {Understood!} she called and began bustling about organizing the whelp's and Gamma's {Come now this way} She urged the whelps leading them to where their position would be in the pack.
Aiedail then hurriedly began organizing the other Sigma's looking around to check she hadn't missed anyone {Sigma's Gamma's and Whelp's to me please!} she called over the chatter of the pack assembling.
Aiedail shivered the cold was getting worse by the minute soon the blizzard would be upon them 'our alpha means to push us through a blizzard? But that is what killed our previous alpha' she thought t herself before taking her position in the pack formation.

Nefearia nodded, his face solemn and eyes still misty color. He lifted his head higher, but still kept it lower then her's. {On your word.} He said, indicating he was ready to go when she and the pack were.

Shadow headed towards the alpha, then paused briefly, grumbling and shaking herself. With all this snow on her, she looked like a white wolf... She rolled her golden eyes, then trotted over to Meisha. {Here I am, alpha,} she said, tucking her tail between her legs and dipping her ears to show submission. {What are your orders?}

Meisha took on her authoritative voice as the Zeta's appeared. {You will all guard our rear and sides, two of you will stand up front with me.} She looked around the group for a moment then pointed {Shadow and Dawn claw you will come with me. The rest of you know what to do.} With that she nodded her head in dismissal and beckoned for her two chosen Zeta's to follow. Meisha then turned to Nefearia and said lightly {Lead on when we're ready.} She took her place at the head of the pack looking back to see if all where ready. They were.
Meisha then raised her head to the darkened sky and let out a long howl. The symbol that they were now moving on. {Lead on Nefearia, but remember we must be swift enough to survive this blizzard, but we mustn't lose anyone, understood?} Her tone was filled with sincerity and her eyes narrowed to ensure no lying happened.

Terisa listened as hard as she could to the alpha's words with the wind rushing up against her face. She wasn't excatly sure of her words but she had caught the word 'blizzard' and she knew the threat that and danger that caused. She tried to stand up once more but the force of the wind pulled her down again, she knew the ergency of what was happening and tried again. This time she succeded and forced her way through the wind and into the pack thogh she was not focusing on where she was placed in the formation and then the alphas howl split the air and they were on the move.

Catori nodded, settling into her position of the formation, huddling close so the wind could not get through to the centre. She was still disappointed that the other kappas and herself had not found a good enough place to stay. Yet she knew the decision to turn back was a good one, they had all smelt the blizzard on the way, and if they hadn't returned all their lives and most of the packs were to be lost. She shook the thought off, now wasn't the time to analyze, they were in danger. She knew that soon it would be safe, for the Alpha would not have trusted the word of Nefearia if he was not correct. Catori also knew of Nefearias ability for direction, after all he was once a lone wolf.
{Huddle together, keep close. It will keep the centre clear of wind and keep us warm as well} she whispered to the others near her. Catori never usually found winter to unbearably cold, but when it came to a blizzard she knew you had to be warm or there was no chance for survival. She trudged on eyes squinted due to the powerful winds, helping the occasional pack member who fell.

Nefearia nodded and they were off. He kept his large white eyes open completely, even though practically all he could see was snow. It was building up beneath them, and his paws sunk down each time he took a step, slowly him down. He started the pack off at a fast pace, a little above a fast walk, taking a small break each time there was a member of the pack who fell or needed assitance. {If I am right, which I believe I am, we should soon break out onto a large plain, it's a clear run across that. If we can make it past that, there should be a forest lined up in front of us, and within it lies our safety from the blizzard, for it will shelter us from it, and inside I know there to be many caves.}

Meisha grinned. {If we survive this Nefearia you are promoted to Alpha's adviser, well that is if you want that.} She trudged on, the wind was getting harsher by the minute making it harder to walk. Every now and again she would turn to see how the pack was going. She saw all where huddling together for warmth and one pack member in particular, a Kappa Meisha recognized her as, was helping any who fell. This would be a long journey for their pace could not go much above this speedy walk.
She turned back to Nefearia and said plainly her ears back with worry {I trust you Theta...} With that they trudged on the blizzard building up around them.

Nefearia made no response to her words, or her trust. He knew these lands almost inside and out, however it was much harder to navigate when you can't see. Suddenly the green that they could see from the corner of their eyes turned white, and Nefearia turned back to Meisha. {We are on the plain now.} He said.

Shadow trudged along at Meisha's other side, her head lowered and her ears flattened against her skull. Her golden eyes were half-shut to protect them from the driving snow, and her tail was also lowered.
