"Look if you dogs want my help in hiding and surviving here for a while then we can't stay put for long," Bilkiba grunted, "Where's the other girl?"
He looked around, not sure how to help them if they had to find someone now. It wasn't like that human was down and out, not for sure. He could come back, and in greater numbers. They needed to disappear and quickly. He stood listening for a while, his ears perked, but he didn't hear the human any more. Maybe he should ditch them now. It almost seemed a shame at this point though. He decided to give them a choice in the matter. So he spoke again, more calmly.
"Look, I know this city, and it seems you lot aren't really familiar with city life.. so if you want my help til you figure it out, then, I'll give you some pointers and a place to stay out of the weather and out of sight," he said in a gentler tone than he'd used with any other living creature for a long time.

Shining blue eyes peered out of the dumpster at what appeared to be a lone she-wolf. The wolfess would have been beautiful, aside from an injury and her dirty coat. She still didn't look too bad. She was moving slowly, though apparently with determination, and had a bit of carrion with her. After hearing the howl near here, Gerard had debated whether or not coming to aid the ones in trouble was a good idea or not. Being not full-blooded meant the wolves might not be too keen on accepting help from this one. But Gerard had finally decided that helping was the thing to do and poked up out of the dumpster, only to see this she-wolf. Males must have run the trouble off, but an injured girl out all alone was never a good thing.
"Hey, do you need some help finding anyone?" a male voice said loud enough to get the wolfess' attention as the motley coloured mutt emerged from the dumpster completely and landed on the cold stone behind the girl, hoping not to have scared her much.
