They can never find
Our secret hiding spot
Where we play all day
We'll go on and on anyway}}

Why was he even here? Well maybe because this was his home or at least suppose to be. Ever since his mother had brought him to the Morg's, they'd treated him like an outsider. He was glared at, tested in loyalty, and compared to his father in so many ways. The news of the Demeron leader's death didn't bring much of a stop to his teasing but it did make many of the dogs more wary around him. "Julian, hurry up!" A high pitched voice rung out from above him, making his ears perk and eyes grow wide. Blinking several times as he stared up against the bright sun, the dalmatian mix gave a soft whine before scrambling up the last of the wooden crates. Thankfully, he wasn't the only pup within the Morg pack. A sweet husky mix named Hollywood had become his partner when the alpha had called for outside buddies. Although the thought made him laugh, he was often grateful to have been paired with someone young and care free.

Sometimes he wondered what was on the faes mind, her dark eyes always seemed to hide something. Maybe she had a bad past but he had always wondered why she was so standoffish and hard working. He hadn't ever seen anyone welcome a challenge with excitement like she did. "I'm going hunting today so I need to get ready and you being slow isn't helping much." The fae barked, her chocolate eyes gracefully sweeping over him. She really was a feisty one, he thought. "I never signed up for this, ya know." The brute grumbled back with a laugh as he carefully jumped down a stack of logs and onto a large dumpster below. Watching intently as the husky mix climbed over the obstacles with grace, the brute lazily pushed his body into a sphinx position. "I wonder where Jewel's at." He mused aloud, eyes brightening with interest in the thought.

His mother was in love with the Morg alpha but the alpha wasn't too fond of her son. Julian hadn't caused trouble, hadn't made a wrong move or said a bad word. Despite being as much of a good boy as he could, the alpha seemed more wary than anyone else towards the pup. "Why don't you ever call her, mom?" Stopping in mid-jump the husky mix turned her head to stare intelligently at the brute. Shrugging off the question, Julian stood up and shook out his thin pelt. A wave of blacks, tans, and whites flashed as the brute leaped down off of the dumpster and onto the ground below. The open courtyard was filled with patches of dirt and dying grass, the ground rough on sensitive paws. He hadn't been training long enough to feel the earth like she did, to not be hurt by uneven ground or sharp glass below the soil. Admiring the view for a short moment, the brute listened to the sound of the femmes paws against the wood behind him.

Everything was finally slowing down enough for the brute to take a deep breath, and let himself just look over his life. The pack was growing, each day it seemed, and they were getting loyal members. He was pleased with this, but what he wasn't pleased with was that each new member seemed to disrespect him. Yes, he had left his pack for a short while, but that was in the past and he wished everyone would get over it. The brute sighed as he jumped on top of an old rusted car that was covered in Nadia's scent. A small grin formed on the alpha's maw as he thought about the loyal husky, and how she was one of the few that really did respect him as a leader. In a way, he wished that he would've chosen her as his mate, instead of Jewel.

Shaking the thought from his mind, the dalmatian pricked his floppy ears up and listened to the sounds around him. Birds sang, dogs barked, human's cars flew on the road outside of the junkyard, and two voices came to him. He knew the one voice well, and he smiled when he thought of the dog. Hollywood, the husky that had come to him when she was very young. He was sure that she was one that would stay with him 'til the end, but he was unsure of the other voice. Julian. Gray eyes looked around for the duo, and when he spotted them he jumped off the rusted car and padded over.

The alpha walked around a crate and looked right toward the pup, toward Julian. The pup's coat seemed to shine in the sunlight, and the way he stood.. Axel rolled his eyes at himself, and came into full view, looking up toward the husky that was on boards above him. "Greetings." He barked, his voice filled with joy in seeing them, or more Holly. Gray eyes locked into the red and white fae and his tail wagged. "Going out on a hunt?" He asked, wondering if she was going to try and full a bigger position than the one he had placed her in. As he waited for an answer, Axel looked at the brute and dipped his head, hoping to show respect to him.
