Set a few hours after Olive being taken by Boomba. They working on plans.

@
"Kuhn"

The rage had not settled. It was accompanied by worry for the waif but mostly, Tiberius was furious. The rage flowed through his veins in a vengeful fire, licking at his skin and demanding to be set free. He had told Uriel, Riannon and the other Frostchantian that they would reconvene once he -- or even they -- would power. He knew he would need to seek further strength and man power, he was skilled and had worked hard to get himself to physical greatness but even he knew he couldn't do it alone. Riannon was determined and fierce, quick with her teeth where she lacked the height and solid body. Uriel was bigger but still quick, an athletic body with from what he could see, bravery and some skill behind her. The other... he was tall, smaller smaller Tiberius but still built and willing to help his Pack Mate. Though Tiberius could not say for his skill, having met him only once and it was today, where he was filled with vibrating rage.

It wasn't enough. Especially if the Walrus had a blubbery friend or two. He stormed through the Tundra as his adrenaline still pumped, he couldn't think of a proper plan like this -- he was too pent up with his anger. With his... fear. He so rarely felt it yet this... Olive's safety had been out of his control. Getting her back was his priority, alive. She would not die and he would skin what he could of the Walrus and present it to her as soft fucking bedding. He swiped an agitated paw at the snow, kicking it up as he leant his head back and screamed.

He screamed his rage, thundering vocals shuddering through the Tundra as he relented in releasing his anger as it demanded. ^^

Chewing on the head of some bone, picking at bits of cartilage that stubbornly clung on, the tigers ears snapped upwards at the echoing cry of anguish coming from over the hill. It sounded familiar.

Whatever it was it sounded more interesting than what he was doing now. Standing up the bone clattered down into the rest. Trotting to the top of the hill, the cat looked down cocking his head.

"Tiberius?"

How the fuck did it happen ---

He hadn't been there. Tiberius had been elsewhere but then could he be everywhere she was? They were of different Packs but even still they weren't... they hadn't... they were just Tiberius and Olive. What right had he to be in the places she was, more often than not? They should have spoken. He should have swallowed the pride and the nerves and spoken to her, wondering what the fuck they were doing and now... now she was being held fucking hostage by a blubbery prat. 

The titan screamed until his throat was raw, his molten gaze bright with emotion as he heard his name ring out. He was feral as he cast his head to the side, shoulders bunched as he searched for the creature. Orange and black, stripes -- tiger, Kuhn. Tiberius heaved a grunt as he curled his lip as he once more whacked his paw into the snow and snarled, "she's gone, Kuhn." Tiberius grunted as he clung to the snow, tethering himself as he heaved his vengeful breaths. ^^

It was simple to tell that something was wrong with his friend. Even Kuhn, as uneducated as he was in reading others could tell his friend was in distress. The Titian, normally so composed was now shambling and full of rage.

Reacting quickly, the cat trotting up, joined the man at his side, half rubbing up against him. "What? Who is gone? What happened?"

With his thunderous rage thrumming beneath his skin, he nearly didn't feel the touch of Kuhn against him as the feline rubbed against him. He released a huffing breath as he leaned against Kuhn like a pillar of strength and he couldn't help but roll his molten gaze to the sky as he breathed. "Olive," he managed, his muscles bunching as he heaved a snarl. "She's -- we... she's my..." he swallowed as he shrugged then, they hadn't spoken about anything so he wasn't quite sure how to refer to her.

"Fuckin' Walrus bastard stole 'er," his disfigured lips curled against his teeth as he stilled. "We couldn't save 'er, couldn't fucken save 'er an' now he's got 'er an' our fuckin' teeth barely made a dent ta 'im." Tiberius divulged with misery, rage and failure. He had failed her. He had failed her. "I gotta save 'er, Kuhn." He sounded almost desperate in his desire as he slumped against the feline, his breath shuddering. ^^

Leaning back into his friend, he was a scaffold in the this time of need, the striped cat was happy to provide support. At first all he could do was be silent, and listen. Feeling the Titians muscles bunch against his hide, he could practically feel the tattered man's rage and desperation.

With drooping ears, Kuhn could understand what he might be feeling, he too had someone quite important to him, much like Olive. If someone took Valmua from him, he would likely be in a similar state, if not trying to remove the spine of whatever foe that might be.

Today, the tiger could run with a pack. For his friend, the Titian.

Tiberius.

"We will get her back.", he offered, downplaying his mention of we.

A flash of memory came to him, he had heard of walrus before. The great bear Thrax had mentioned it, claiming to be an expert in slaying them. A slight malicious grin spread across the cat's face, showing the tip of his fang. The thought of bringing, down a beast like that, almost made him purr.

"There is someone I want you to meet...", he said with a grin, trying to nudge the wolf to his feet.

-Don't worry it's all going to be alright.

Kuhn's words resonated with him and though he had not given up hope, it had been slipping away from him in the face of his failure. Of his defeat. So to hear the feline's words had some part of him coming to life again, though he momentarily thought on the word we and he wondered if that meant Kuhn was willing to put his claws into the mix in the fight against the Walrus and his bitch. Something shifted in the air and Tiberius cast his tired molten gaze to the cat, watching the feral grin settle upon his features and the ear that wasn't shorn in half cuffed forward with a twitch, "someone?" the titan echoed as he pushed himself at the nudge and regained his footing, his nose flaring.

"Alrigh'," he agreed, "i's meet this someone." If Kuhn wanted him to meet someone in a time like this, the titan thought he must be relevant. ^^
