everyone of the guys, well save for Marcus who didnt stay there froze when she played her joke on them.. Xaven smirked when she said he was safe for sure, Xaven grinned, leaning back as he popped a brat into his mouth, chewing it with satisfaction.. then she tortured the others, and all of them, even Marcus laughed lightly when she got Drake "whew" he said when she finally said yes of course he could say. "for a minute there i thought i was homeless" not that he was.. truely his family was rich but for some reason he wasnt hitting them up for money or anything. they went back to eating. "and damn right on the chance of winning over Lesley here" looking at her, smiling. "you'll give in, trust me" he said, smirking as he tore another bite out of his food. Xaven went from kissing on, touching Vanessa to eating. he alternated and sometimes he multi tasked it. and everyone was having a good time when all of a sudden the wind shifted, and blew across them and everyone of them tensed, catching something in the air Ralph and Drake gave a low growl, looking to Xaven, who rose. "we'll be back ladies" he said, turning around and sprinting across the yard fast, though not "unnatural" fast. Drake and Ralph were up and after him, right on his tail.. once they hit the woods however all bets were off and their speed in running increased five fold as each one of them let the wolf free. leaping forward, kicking off with enough strength to sore through the air, Xaven in the lead, his entire body rippled, like water before the shift came on quick. when he landed, where once a man, now a large shaggy honey brown wolf. behind him, Drake and Ralph shifted to wolf. a trespasser had crossed into their land, getting ballsy since their scent was all over the woods as a clear warning.. once the three of them were together, their minds connected and each could hear the other's thoughts [b][i][color=SlateGray]"Ralph, take right and come circling around, watch yourself"[/color][/i][/b] Xaven said, Ralph dug his claws in and tore off right, picking up speed so he could circle and catch up.[b][i] [color=SlateGray]"Drake take left, i'll run them that way, you turn them to the creek. do not engage unless your attacked!"[/color][/i][/b] in his voice, the command of the Alpha.. Drake growled but tore off left and Xaven opened his mouth, growling loud enough to be heard. Marcus was tense as he stood and looked toward the treeline watching, listening.
