Really? You ARE in the presence of YOUR alpha- who is wise, kind or both sing I can stay- puff up any further -hunter-who-withholds-her-name- and you will be challenging your alpha, not me.
I have no interest in a spar with you- I know I might win, or might not- age is the beast that devours all one who see their grandpups. If we fight and I win, what then- you are then mate of FireTiger- who's scars show what he's seen... So if you have mate, or want a younger wolf you do not want to challenge me. It would prove nothing -
If I win it shows my experience is greater, and I am not yet weak.
If you win it shows that my injuries and heath at this moment are less then yours at this moment.
Swan-Alpha has accepted me, you are stuck with me- unless you try to end old grizzled tiger's life- then we will fight- only one will walk away-
This will prove you have no care for pack, all hunters are needed- It would be a shame to loose a hunter.
In this pack I am lowest, but I differ to Alphas, a position I held for three generations- when you understand how much work alpha is, by being an alpha - you will have my respect- all alpha's do- all males can challenge to prove strength against me, all females can challenge for 'their' den area- for me to leave them alone. Again, there is a chance I will win, then FireTiger will have a match- well close enough.
I still don't know why you are so easily insulted. I do not know what you think I said.

Greetings, Alpha of Snowpack, I am joining pack at you and your mate's say.
I am FireTiger, my stripes show what I have seen.
I am former Alpha of 'Move's Like Smoke'
I was usurped two moons ago by grand pup twins- together they are stronger, they are foolish to drive me out, and were too week to kill me.
I have been looking to join a new pack, my days of alpha are over.
I would be good at planning and guarding- I do not know what I can be taught.
I was an alpha, a warrior, a hunter, a mate and a guard. These things I know.
I know I would be watched, but there are less pleasant wolves to watch I think (refrence to his comment to Swan, that he is handsome).
I know I am least for now- but I will earn my food. I will show respect to the rightful leaders (indicates Falcon is not a rightful leader) others may earn my trust and respect as I do of them.
[something truncated my post fixed]
I also can teach of man, and man traps.
Beaver moaned. This was going to be a talkative wolf. "I can tell you this: You are not of any position yet. You are no hunter, Warrior, Mate or guard. What is a Mate or a Guard, anywho? You will remain a Prisoner until we decide your rank. You will be followed by Otter, a scout and Bee, my Pup. If they see anything abnormal, you will be killed." (Scary!)
