This ivory skinned girl wasn't the only inhabitant of this cave that was awake, as he heard an oddly familiar voice chirp up, he rather rapidly swiveled his head to get a better look at the speaker who introduced himself as Ryker.

"I see I slept through a lot. Anyone want to catch me up to speed?...How rude of me! I'm Ryker. Pleased to meet you all."

Alpha tried to let his eyes focus and rubbed them hard with the knuckles of his index fingers, pushing the sleep from them, and they felt so dry.

Alpha spoke up with his early morning gruff deep voice.
"Ryker?... You...old...sod! Speed is one thing you do not need, is that really you?"

He pushed himself up onto one knee, then with a moan and a stretch he stood up rotating backwards his broad shoulders, his spine cracking as he brought himself to his full height. He then stood with his arms crossed clasping his biceps, the nights dreams and thoughts slipping away.
