Quinn struggled against the man's grasp and tried to swing out with her legs to kick him. But it was no use, he was too strong for her. She could tell by his scent of power and authority, that this was the pack leader. While he might have been unsure before, he was taking charge now, and he was angry. Quinn wanted to kick herself for not going back to the camp to alert Gretchen to the intruders.

Zander carefully slid his wand out frm his robe pocket, and tapped it on the girl. Immediately, ropes appeared and tied themselves tightly around her, binding her completely. As an added touch, he tapped her again, causing a cloth to appear and tie itself around her mouth, effectively gagging her.
"OK," he said. "Chloe, Dean, I want you two to apparate together back to where Karl and David are. Chloe, I want you to take Dean with you, and not let him go alone. We'll leave this one here... her people will find her eventually. Pearl and I are going to see if we can find her camp."

Pearl beamed at Zander, he really put the rival pack's whelp to shame. She bent down and grabbed a fist full of some sweet smelling grasses and shoved them into the woman's mouth. "Now we can't have you howling, can we dear?" she checked over Chloe's injuries, she defended the pup bravely, but she smelled disturbing scents off the boy. "Chloe, take care of him now, but when we return, He and the other pups will fall to my care." she said sternly adding to the pup "As to you, do well to learn and learn your place." flashing her eyes with the colour of her wolf. She asserted her dominance over the pup, placing her hand over the tender flesh of his neck, feeling his pulse quicken. She could only hope the message was received as intended. "Alright Zander, We'll finish this scouting trip."

Chloe looked to Zander and nodded, as well to Pearl. "Alright," replied Chloe. "You two be careful and we'll see you soon." She put a hand on Dean's shoulder and apparated to where Karl and David were waiting.

Dean sighed as they apparated back ton the spot where the other two pack members were waiting. At last he felt safe, but he was still angry with himself for messing things up. he knew now that he had to do something about his hormones... they were going to get him in trouble. He found himself wishing he'd had more time alone with the brunette.
Frustrated and exhausted, Dean slumped against a tree and looked sadly at Chloe. "I guess I have a lot to learn, huh?" he said.

Chloe sat down on the ground to rest and looked over to Dean. "Yeah, you do," she replied. "but don't worry, I'm sure that Pearl will teach you everything you need to know. Just make sure you listen to her, because whatever she tells you is the best things you need to know."

Once Chloe and Dean had apparated, Zander turned to Pearl. "OK, let's go. I don't know if we'll be able to get Ashura out of there tonight, but I'd like to at least see what we're up against." He gave her a quick kiss on her cheek. "I should have listened to my instinct, which was to keep you with me. Instead I split us up so I could make better use of our strength. But I always feel more in control when you're next to me."

"We are two of one, maybe it is best that we stick together for now." she said smiling at him. She sighed and frowned a little "The pup is at a very awkward stage, he's not been wolf long enough for his human side to reconcile it. We'll have more trouble with him around other females." she almost understood why Greyback would go for younger children, he never had to deal often with pups driven by the human need to breed with anyone attractive enough. Even older men and women weren't going to be as difficult as she guessed Dean would be. "I'll have to start intensively with him, until he's better we can't have him with the group." she said to Zander as they started to make way.

Zander nodded. "I agree. I've noticed the odd scents he's been giving off, and there's definitely a problem there. I'm glad you'll be working with him, but be careful, OK?" He sniffed the air, following the trail that the girl had left when she had walked toward her camp.

Pearl nodded. Dean might be a pup, but pups still have teeth. She followed the scent in the air, realizing that the other pack they were up against wasn't to concerned about their scents lingering or being apparent, it seemed to be a sign of arrogance.

"They've been all around here," Zander commented. "It's like they don't care if they're found." He sniffed again and recognized the sharp scent of a campfire. "They even have a fire going."

"Arrogance!" spat pearl, but she couldn't help feeling a little worried, what if they had plenty of reason for arrogance? Her young pack might not be up to the challenge. so she softened her tone and whispered to Zander, "We must tread lightly, we might be up against a strong group. We can't loose anyone else." she placed a hand on Zander's shoulder.

"I know," Zander whispered back. "I'm not sure we can get Ashura away ourselves. I think we may have to let Sully come and face this Gretchen woman. Still, I hope we can get close enough to see just what it is we're up against. I don't like having to let another pack just take one of our members and hold her hostage. What's to stop them from doing it to someone else, just to get to us?"
He walked quietly ahead, following the scents of the camp. Soon he could hear sounds coming from up ahead; the sounds of an active camp--talking, eating, the crackle of a fire. "Stay close to me," Zander mouthed to Pearl.

Pearl nodded and stepped lightly over the forest floor. She felt the edge of fear, being so close to another pack, but she pressed the feeling down. Arrogant or not it wasn't the time to be foolish.

Gretchen sat by the fire, lazily warming her hands as she nibbled on a sausage. As ever, Ashura was just in front of her, still tied to the tree. The girl was looking a bit ill. "Don't you worry," she sneered at her. "Your brother, if he's as honorable as you say, will be coming for you very soon."
She smirked and looked around the camp. Quinn was supposed to be on patrol, but she'd been gone longer than usual. Frowning to herself, she took a sip of butterbeer. Something didn't smell right. Sitting right next to the fire, her senses were dulled, but still, there was something in the air. Quinn should have been back by now. "Korbel!" she yelled. "Where the hell is Quinn?"

Korbel had found something to do around the cave while Quinn was gone. She was just supposed to patrol around the camp and come back, but she hadn't returned. Korbel had to admit he was sort of worried, but then again Quinn was probably off somewhere.... doing whatever. That sort of made him angry.
Hearing Gretchen calling, he appeared by her side. "How am I supposed to know where she is," said Korbel keeping his voice even. "All I know is she was supposed to be patrolling. I haven't seen her since she left."

Ashura felt weak and had her head hanging, she hated that she let herself get involved with Korbel. He was the reason Quinn was able to know where she was, she rose her head up and glared at him then said, "She's probably off with some guy, and that's why she isn't here." She was a little hurt by losing him to that tramp but as the days went by she was slowly getting over it.

Gretchen jerked her head up and glared sharply at the little whelp. "Do I hear you allowing yourself to speak?" she demanded. "Shut up, girl, or I will let Quinn kill you after I've killed your brother!" She turned to Korbel. "Well, don't just stand there, go look for Quinn! She's supposed to be on watch, I can't have her just go missing all the time. Go!"

She's probably off with some guy, and that's why she isn't here.
Korbel didn't really doubt Ashura's words. Quinn had been known to do something like that, and she didn't care what she did to him. He sighed as Gretchen started to speak again. "OK, OK, I'm going," said Korbel a little angrily.
He turned and headed out of camp, in search of Quinn. He hoped that she wasn't doing anything that he thought she might be doing. Korbel would probably end up killing someone if that happened, and then he would be angry with her, but she probably wouldn't care. It seemed like he was just her little toy that she used whenever she couldn't find other toys to play with.

Gretchen watched him go, frowning to herself. Korbel's temper was often as bad as Quinn's. She hoped that Quinn wasn't back to her old tricks again and shirking her duty. The last thing they needed was for Quinn or Korbel or both to get in trouble. Chances were, Ashura's pack would try to do something to get her back. After all, it was their territory. She felt fairly confident that her pack was tougher, especially without Dawn to hold them back. But if sometihng happened to Quinn or Korbel, that would severely weaken the pack.
Annoyed, Gretchen put another sausage on the branch and held it over the fire. She supposed she ought to give the whelp something to eat. It wouldn't do to have the wretched girl starve to death before the hunter got there.
