Hah! It had worked! The shimmering shape of another massive white puppy appeared behind him, giving his opponent a pause. She could take 3 smaller mouths, but six? Haha, no! See, more teeth! He was going to win. His tail wagged, the hunger in his stomach churning a desperation.

Kerberos charged, his paws pounding, slapping, against the muddy earth. The ground had stopped shaking, and while he was still a bit mixed up from the wiggling, he was determined to make his teeth hit the mark this time. A snarl ripped through his three jaws, the flickering duplicate of him sputtering out as his attention latched onto his violent rush.

The wolf had done something strange-- something the pup remembered from a fight from only a few days ago-- but this didn't stop him. He remembered the metal lion, with his armor. It had chinks, holes, he could get his teeth in somewhere... With three sets of hungry mouths, surely he would get a bite in somewhere-- a taste, a bit of food, something to hold him over--!

Iron ore slipped from the walls and floor from all around. Yet, it was not moving nearly as fast as it should be. Arkrael took one step back, anxiously watching the new white beast as the ore crept closer and closer to her. When she felt the ore touch her feet she heard the sudden roar of an attack. The pounding of paws echoed into her ears, thrummed in her chest as panic seemed to grasp hold of her heart. Both white canines were charging at her, one closer than the other but she couldn't make out if that had been the real one of the copy. Ore continued to spread up her legs and over her chest, inching it's way until it covered fully over her gem and slipped up to taper off down her spine. Her jaw gritted as she realized her magic had not worked entirely successful or her body would have been more guarded than this. It mattered not now, there was no time.

Arkrael bared her fangs, releasing a roar of her own as she braced herself for the attack. When the first canine suddenly flickered out just before it reached her Arkrael found herself a little confused and before she could recover the real one was upon her. Fangs sunk deep into her shoulder, instantly pooling her blood free of it's flesh as it began to seep through her fur and stain this puppy's fangs crimson. A howl of pain escaped her and she instantly tried to jerk away as his charge at her seemed to knock her back. She kicked her hind paws at him, swiping and clawing with her front in an attempt to get this beast to release her as pain quickly swarmed her.

Out of no where a sudden thrumming in her chest made her lose her breath. Magic was reacting, instantly coming to life in an attempt to save it's master as Arkrael had not been the one to summon it. The moment her back hit the ground the Earth seemed to move. Shaking near violently as loud snaps and groans began to rise up from it's depth. Within a mere moment a loud, near deafening crack echoed within the room and Arkrael new in that instance the Earth had broken open.

Blood. Kerberos had finally hit his mark, had finally sunk his teeth into a bigger beast than the simple prey of the cave. He had got his jaws in a wolf, a creature that easily rivaled his strength. He would finally get to satisfy his hunger. The hot liquid filled his senses, the smell of his glory making him all the more hungry. He wanted to kill, to consume, to live.

Yet as the huge white puppy sunk his teeth into Arkrael, he felt her kick and thrash, squirming out of his crimson teeth, blood dripping from his jaws as he tried to snap at her again. "Got you!" He snarled, a heat in his chest and a drumming in his ears like a war drum. Goading him. Pushing him. "Now DIE!"

The cave seemed to reply to his guttural roar, the violent churn of earth breaking under him giving him just a slight pause. Long enough for Arkrael to get out of the way--

And then the world grew up around him, its jaws lunging up like mountains around his thick, muddy fur. Fear pierced him as he let out a horrified whimper, scream, and yelp, his claws scrambling to snatch at the edge of the gorge that tore open under him. He did not think in this moment, only act, frantic to save his own life. He dug into the cavern wall, trying desperately not to fall into the blackness bellow.

"--HELP!"

It all happened so quickly. Blood bubbled and spilled from her shoulders, coursing down through her fur and painting the stone floor crimson. Hackles were still bristled as she now stood over the struggling three-headed canine. Piercing two-toned eyes stared harshly down at him as he scrambled and cried for help. She should let him fall into the depths. Should turn her back to him and leave him where he hung. Pain continued to explode in her shoulder and she knew the bite was deeper than she could imagine at the moment. The pool of blood gathering around her paws was probably a good indication to that.

'He's only a pup...'
Her own words betrayed her anger within her mind. It almost immediately made her heart clench painfully and a soft sigh escaped the she-wolf. Had she not made a promise to Tamelyn to always keep a watchful eye on all newborns within the cave? It wasn't that this canine was a fresh out of the chrysalis, Arkrael was sure about that, but he was still younger than she. Without a second thought, Arkrael braced herself and moved quickly. Her fangs gripped at the hackles by the base of his three heads and heaved him over the ledge.

She tugged and pulled, desperate to get this gembound eating creature up to it's feet. It didn't feel right to be saving a creature that just tried to eat her. She could not do another fight and would be left vunerable because of her now wounded shoulder. The moment the adrenaline was no longer coursing through her veins was the moment Arkrael knew it would truly start hurting. For now, she would focus on the task at hand. The moment she felt he was safely away from the fissure Arkrael released the canine and quickly backpedaled away from him. Her nose crinkled up, baring the front part of her fangs as her tongue curled with warning. "If you attempt attacking me again I will toss you right back into that hole..." It was an empty threat. One she hoped he would not catch on to. She had no strength left and putting even the slightest bit of weight down on her wounded shoulder nearly made her whimper in pain.

"Now then..." Arkrael lifted her head up high, peering down at the canine that would soon be just as big as her and for a moment she wondered just how big this creature would be when he was an adult. "If you are hungry...perhaps I could find you something to eat that will not bite back," She made the offer fully knowing it would be a difficult task for her to do, but she did not want to face having to fend off a three-headed puppy once again. She would much rather try to find him something to eat then go through all that once again.

The wolf dragged his sad butt out of the hole and he inched away from her, getting back to his paws. He listened to her as she spoke, scolding him gently, and he stared quietly at Arkrael. She reminded him of Giggle, but so much stronger. The hyena had a quiet strength in her personality, yes, but this one had large, sharp magical teeth that could eat him in a heartbeat. He had never felt so much awe and terror.

The overgrown puppy shook, trembling on his paws, adrenaline rushing through his veins. She had saved him... He was alive. His pink eyes looked to her wound as blood dripped to the earth and traveled down an indent in the floor to the gaping chasm. He had hurt her, but she still offered to feed him. Why did everyone try to help him when he only wronged them?

It made his stomach churn. His hunger momentarily forgotten even as she asked him, he lowered down to the ground and inched closer until he could lick at the under side of her muzzle-- and the wound in her shoulder-- and her chest. Three tongues furiously trying to make up for the mess he had made.

"I'm sorry," he woofed softly, whimpering a little. "Can... can you really help me hunt?" And after a pause, "how did you break the earth?" She was so strong, so impossibly strong. It frightened him. Inspired him. He didn't know how to cope with these new feelings, but they were disturbing enough to his young puppy mind that he could only look to her for advice.

Muscles tensed when the beast suddenly moved. The adrenaline seemed to get a second wind and coursed through her entirety until she felt her heart racing quickly. When all the pup did was nuzzle up to her with grooming tongues, Arkrael stood there a little stunned. Her shoulder stung nigh instantly the moment one of his tongues began to groom at it, but she did not comment about it. His apology soon came and then the inquiry to help him hunt left Arkrael to slowly nod her head. Though just as she was about to answer him another question was thrown at her.

"I uh..." She paused for a moment as she looked from one head to the other, "I used my magic. I bond to the Earth. Like how you bond to your own magic," she tried to explain. She wasn't sure what kind of magic he carried. She recalled his ability to create a clone of himself and she honestly could not recall ever meeting someone who could do that. "now, shall we go hunt? I know the best place to catch the largest of prey," she offered him a small grin as she waited for his response.

Kerberos listened to her as best as he could, nodding softly. Magic... All his magic could do was push... Perhaps he could learn to push the earth apart as she had. His tail wagged hesitantly as she stood up and offered the idea of the hunt. He stood up after her, shook out his thick white fur, and panted eagerly, tail swishing. Many gembounds had showed him to hunt, but none had been truly successful.

After all, she was an Alpha Wolf. Though he didn't know how to put it to words, he knew she was boss, and that she was powerful... Just like Giggle. She had many teeth in her magic, and she was a lot more... Aggressive with her gifts than Giggle was. The hyena was defensive, reactive-- Arkrael was a fighter. Like he was.

"Okay! Let's go!" He barked eagerly, paws wiggling in place. He wanted to learn from her, and so he followed her wherever she would take him, paws curiously padding along after her. She would show him how to hunt, and maybe, he would really get it this time. For now, he had already learned one lesson: The Boss was to be respected. Powerful magic could, and would, kill him.
