Devin heard the distressed call from his cousin's mate, he was slightly far away from the den area, teaching his own kids how to hunt small game when it rang out over and through the trees "Come kids." he told his four boys, running at full speed through the forest and back to the den.

A crowd had started gathering around RJ and Kodi, murmuring and trying to find out just what the heck happened to their Pack Master when Devin came barreling through - four childhood aged pups at his heels "Boys, go find your mother." Devin said and then turned back to his cousin and Kodi.

Devin shifted forms quickly, kneeling down at RJ's side "What the heck happened, Kodi?" Devin asked as he slowly turned RJ onto his back, laying him flat on the ground and tilting his head back slightly - he was running his hand alongside the uninjured portion of RJ's neck, feeling for a pulse; it was there, but weak and thready. The blood dribbling from his mouth was worrisome and the ragged breaths he could see RJ trying to take really did worry him.
