Krakarak had hoped to appeal to the wolf's better nature with his compliments and begging but alas, she was made of sterner stuff. The wolf neither shifted nor moved and the bird was still pinned beneath the canine. He wanted to cry at his misfortune. The misfortune that was all his fault... The bird sighed and decided to accept his fate. He'd forever be trapped beneath the furry bottom of the wolf. "Krakarak sorry... He not try to hit Mighty Wolf in the eye, he only try to have a little fun. Not mean to hurt. Krak Krak!" And there was a little sincerity to his tone as if he actually felt remorseful. Which he did a little but not for hitting her with the rock, he was moreso remorseful that it had almost blinded her since he hadn't meant to do that. He was also a little upset that he'd been caught at all.

The bird stared ahead, blinked sadly as he pondered over his fate so when the first few feathers were plucked it caused him more surprise than pain. "Krakaw!" He cawed out in the mixture of the two emotions. "Rak Rak! Stoppit!" He yelled in dismay as more and more feathers were plucked. "That hurts!" Not to mention with less feathers he would be far less attractive! "There." Done with torturing him by pulling feathers --or so he believed it was torture-- the wolf let him up. Krakarak wasted no time in fluttering to his taloned feet and turning to examine his back where the feathers had been plucked.
"Krakarak looks hideous..." He groaned in dismay.

At least he was alive and free though.

The bird turned his beady eyes to the wolf, face expressionless for a moment before he hopped up to her and bowed. "Thank-you for letting Krakarak up. He sorry for hurting you. He no hurt you again, Mighty Wolf. You are most merciful for not killing him." He didn't add the words "and I'm forever in your debt" but they were implied with how he looked up at the female. One thing was for certain, once you bested the young raven he knew when to give proper respect.

Arkrael watched him with her one good eye at unblinkingly, still a little guarded in case he was just squawking about just to get her off of him. When all he did was bow to her and start apologizing again Arkrael finally relaxed"It's...okay" She sighed and shook her neck fur for a moment, as if to ease her once tense muscles. Finally she set her gaze back onto Krakarak and looked him over. He was the first bird she had ever met. So, besides his ill-manners, she was relatively curious about him. His feather's definitely didn't taste all that great on her tongue, so that definitely meant he was not something she would see as food. Which would be good in his case.

She flipped her tail about before tugging it around her side to rest motionlessly there. "My name is Arkrael, by the way," She finally introduced herslf as she moved to lay against her tummy so she wasn't looking down at him, but rather eye to eye now. Not that he deserved that level of respect at this current moment, but Arkrael would shrug it from her shoulders just this once. "Do you live here?" She questioned thoughtfully. For a moment she dared to take her eyes off of Krakarak to have another look around. The place definitely looked much different than it did down below. It was definitely a good place for birds she guessed. She wasn't too fond of the ever constant wind however.

OoC: I'M SORRY IT'S SO SHORT. I'M JUST LIKE...DEAD WITH RAE ATM I'M SO DEVASTATED -will not be rested until i know she's gonna make it-

The bird stared up at the wolf, expression no longer malicious as it had been when he was throwing rocks at her. He was over it. If he threw rocks or insulted her again there was no telling what would happen to him. What if she tried to eat him or something like that? He shuddered inwardly. That would be no good at all. Well, the wolf seemed calm enough now so Krakarak felt good that everything would be fine. He just had to play nice and things would be alright. "Arkrael, I am Krakarak." As if she couldn't figure that out by how he'd been talking in third person. "Krakarak no lives here. He lives in Canis with The Bone King!" He said this proudly which was he was proud that he had made a friend of the Bone King.

"Canis got lotsa bones! Krak! Lotsa gems too!" When he said "gems" a glint came to his eyes. A greedy one that suggested how much he really loved gems. His eyes met the wolf's gaze as he asked, "You like gems?" How could she not? Gems were amazing! So shiny! So beautiful! So pretty. He could never get enough.

The bone king. Now that was an interesting name. Just who was this bone king? Arkrael tilted her head to the side with a thoughtful gaze. Krakarak seemed very proud to know this Bone King person. They lived in a place full of bones!? Now that's a place Arkrael would most certainly enjoy! No canine could surely ignore the call of a few bones to play with! She nearly drooled over the idea of it! Shaking her thoughts Arkreal soon focused on Krakarak again. "YEah, gems are pretty! I like them," Rae gave a toothy grin as well as curt nod to comfirm her words. However, the strange glint in Krakarak's eyes was a strange one. One Arkrael was unfamiliar with and for a moment the she-pup tried to determine just what that look meant. Maybe she was just crazy and simply made up the strange look in Krak's eyes. Either way it was a thought pushed out of her thoughts for now. Maybe this bird was going to show her the gems in the area he spoke of! That would be fun. She pushed herself up to a sitting position again and cast her gaze around. She wondered just how far away this Canis place was from here. Surely not to far, right?

"They are! They are!" He agreed wholeheartedly. He clacked his beak together with pleasure as she agreed with him. He was very very pleased that they were on the same page now. Perhaps they could even get along. So long as she didn't try to steal any of his gems he was perfectly happy. The raven paused in being satisfied long enough to look up at the wolf. Why was she just sitting and staring at him? Oh! He knew why! She was waiting on him to lead her to Canis! He could do that easily. Aza'zel would probably be happy to have some interest anyhow.

"Come, come! Krak show you Canis! Krak Krak!" With that the raven headed off towards the ledge the wolf had made. He could always use magic to get down but he didn't want to risk failing. Besides, this new set of "stairs" that the wolf had made served his purpose perfectly. Krakarak glanced back once to make sure the wolf was following before he continued downwards and towards the exit. He supposed they would go visit and Canis and see his collection of gems! He loved to show others his collection of gem. They made him so happy.

Excitement coursed through Arkrael the more she thought about the room filled with bones. OH yes, she would definitely have to follow Krakarak there! She wanted to see all those bones. All those bones she could chew on! She kept those thoughts to herself however and quickly averted her gaze down to the bird once more as he began speaking. Arkrael gave a nod when Krakarak told her to come and she quickly rose to her paws and padded after the bird. She stopped for a moment as she watched Krakarak start to hop down the 'stair's arkrael had made in her anger. A grin suddenly caressed her features as she studied her handy work. That was pretty cool wasn't it?! She had no idea she could do stuff like that. Shaking her head Arkrael took her first leap to the first step and continued down. She caught up easily with Krakarak. It wasn't that the poor bird was strugglign to get down. Arkrael just had bigger legs. So, without a second thought she dipped her head down and scooped up the bird until the raven settled utop her head. Once he was on and wouldn't fall Arkrael carried on jumping step to step until her paws landed easily back on the ground floor she had started out at yet. She hurried her pace along, quickly making her leave of Monoceros

-Exit Arkrael-
