Scene:
It was a comfortable point in the day. After he'd gotten done staring at the barn he'd begun to rouse those of the pack who were still slummbering, making sure everyone was ready and well to travel. Alsoomse was his main concern though he wasn't about to make it known, she was stubborn enough for the both of them. The Sienna leader stands at the borderline of the feilds and the barnyarn, tail still at his legs as his ears twitch. Allegro is close by, settled back on his haunches and ready. The leader gets a deep bark to the barn, an indication to any inside that the move is about to begin.
Alsoomse ears flick forward from her spot near the entrance of the barn, she looks towards the movement while a yawn escapes her before she blinks at the bark. A faint huff escapes her as she shifts up onto her paws and makes her way towards where the others are. She still rather unsure about this move still, a glance offered back towards the barn before she eyes Jette a moment. Well, not like she was going to have the pups here to start with, but still it bugs her.
Rouge had gotten bored at some point, and had sat herself down atop the woodpile she'd previously been poking around. Whatever she's been investigated, its scent has long ago escaped her. At Jette's signal to the pack, the mutt hops down, her stubbed tail wagging as she trots toward the leader. She glances at Alsoomse, still habitually keeping her distance from the enceinte dog. "We're going now?" She chirps, but knowing the answer already.
At the sound of the sharp bark Titan pokes his head from the house entrance. He then gives the farmhouse one last sad look. He was going to miss his last comforts and reminders of his old home, all he had left now was his collar as he quickly changed direction and ran out of the house blazing a trail twords the pack leader all the while his collard jingling with each step of the way. He wonders where they are going... but in the end he figured he was about to find this answer out his tailw aging excited as he stoped near where the dogs were grouping up.
The huff from Al' is given a rather pointed look as an ear twitches. She was more then welcome to stay. Was Jette a little aggitated? Abit. He's never had this much responsibility and now the decision to finally relocate has his nerves in a twist. The leader however says nothing and simply waits patiently. When all the dogs begin to assemble, he counts heads and makes sure the new members are as well included. Certain figures are given a nod, Kole, Alsoomse, Allegro. Allegro turns and quietly slips out ahead of them to socut the way for the oncomming group. Jette's tail twitches as he nods to Rouge finally, "Yes."
The little female kitten wakes up from her spot perched atop the loft from the bark. She sits still for a good few moments, ears perking up and twitching, listening to the commotion of the other dogs gathering in one spot. Is this it? Is their 'protection' from wild foxes finally leaving? She slowly gets up and makes her way down to the door of the barn. Too many dogs. She'd have liked to say goodbye, at least to Jette and Kole, but there are too many dogs out there -- that one who chased her among them. She just sits down, her small little body dwarfed by the huge entrance to the barn, not stepping out into the light, and watches.
As Muddy's attention is drawn by the bark so is the blazing orange cat's. He quickkly follows her down to the doors and peers out. "wow didn't know there was so many" He whispers more to himself then anyone else. Once they were gathered, they were truely a huge force of dogs. He gives Muddy a reasuring nuzzle. They would figure out what to do about foxes now, of this he was sure. He was a bit relived to see the dogs go.. but in truth he would miss Jette, kole, surii, and rouge. The four that had been kind to him. They would all be missed as he then slwoly retreated back into the barn not wanting to attract attention.
Alsoomse ears lower slightly at the look she gets from Jette and for once she says nothing while she just stays quietly at his side. Her gaze drifting towards the lands in front of her while she takes in a slight breath, her tail swaying a few times. Her ears flick as she hears movement and she looks towards the cat slightly.
Rouge nods to Jette, her eyes then drifting among those who are gathering or already present. Is that everybody? It's a good thing she's not the one responsible for keeping track of them all. She gives a faint whuff to everybody just arriving, but otherwise she stays quiet for the time being.
Titan looks about and then as he spots Rouge he slowly pads over to her. He gives her a small smile, she had been the first dog he had infact met here she is the reason he isn't still in the forest. So with that he feels comforted in this move by coming over next to her. "Are you ready?' he asks her in a quite almsot nervious voice. He was excited, but also a little bit scared as to what the future might hold.
Jette lowers his head to give Al' a breif nose to her shoulder before eyeing those assembled. Gaze flits to Muddy and Blaze whom he gives a silent nod of his head before he glances back to his pack. "We're heading west and then southwest. Try to stay together. If you need to stop let someone know. If you need to rest, make sure you speak up." There's a few mummbles understandings before the male nods his head. With the reappearance of Allegro and a chuff of the all clear, Jette turns and flicks his ears forwards. "Let's go.." the male travels behind Allegro who keeps a close eye on the perimeter ahead.
Muddy does not return back into the barn as Blaze does, but remains at the barn entrance. She knows she should, but she looks on as each dog one by one turns and begins to walk away. She particularly notices Almoose's glance, which makes Muddy fold her ears back and sink low. She would retreat, she should retreat, she knows Almoose is one of the least approving of the dogs here of the cat's presence, but Muddy is far to fascinated finding herself staring at her engorged belly. She was the one that was gonna have babies, right? So she can't really find herself able to look away, far too interested in that pup-filled belly.
Alsoomse has no problems following, or getting lost for that matter either. She looks to Jette and smiles a moment before nosing him back. "Right.." Is offered before she looks to Rouge, her tail swaying a few times. Yes she is the one that is going to have pups, not that is really noticed all the time thanks to her size and bulk.
Rouge nods, a confident, reassuring grin on her muzzle. "Yup. And I can't wait, either. Think of all the new smells, and sounds." Unlike some of the others, the mutt displays on unease, at least not outright. If there are any misgivings about the trip, she's doing a great job of concealing it. Without hesitating, she plods after the others, a slight bounce to her step.
Titan feels comforted by Rouge cheerfullness and he seems to ease a bit as he quickly moves to catch up with her. " Yes.. all the new smells shall be intresting.. it should also be fun finding out all the secret areas of this new place. He barks out happily feeling himself filled with enegy. He'd be running.. but he keeps himself held bakc not wanting to run ahead of the rest of the pack, figuring hed get in trouble if he did so.
Jette glances behind him once or twice before moving into the feilds. The scent of cougars is a long way from being thick, almost all the way faded as he lets his gaze shift left to right. He can see Allegro in the distance, though not far from the pack, and he almost debates passing out as his jitters get the best of him. Jette sooths himself quietly as he nods his head towards the open country side, indictaing the way as Allegro glances back to him questioningly. Tail sways side to side as the leader occasionally checks behind him on the following group of dogs.
Muddy does not retreat back into the barn until the dogs seem a long way off into the overgrown fields. She sighs and rubs her cheek against the side of the huge barn doors. Another chapter in her life closed; might as well get this place smelling like cat again. She turns back and slowly and enters the dark barn, joining Blaze, who she figures she'll be more or less alone with for a very long time.
