Illie was....bored, which, for a daughter of the electric beast, was never a good thing. She was sick of this den, and sick of being cooped up. So! She decided to do something about it. When the time was right, when Voltage was out of the den, and Gaia was sleeping, Illie would creep so quietly towards her beloved sister and reach to try and tug a few times on her ear. Silence was key here, and she hoped Current wouldn't say a word. Without even a second to spare she would stand and turn, tip toeing out of the den as quietly as she could. It was time to have some fun! Time to do things that didn't involve sleeping...or hanging out a foot or so from the den. She wanted to explore. She wanted to have fun! She had gotten a taste of it with Uncle Glace, but she wanted more. Excitement coursed her veins as she safely made it passed the mouth of the den, spinning around in the sun to look for her sister. She hoped the yellow marked girl would follow behind her, though Current seemed far more shy and sweet than Illie was, but that just made her all the more precious. She bounced on her paws, giggling quietly as she waited, ready to run and jump and explore and maybe meet some more of their aunties and uncles. Daddy had said many times that there were a lot of them, but she hadn't seen...really any yet. But that would change! "SPEAK!"

Current was locked away in a world of dreams, where she could fly above the ocean and skim her paws against the rolling waves. She was enjoying herself until a seagull swooped down to her and with a cry of surprise she realized the seagull was aiming for her ear, wrapped its beak against the small extremity and began to pull - She woke with a start, shaking her head before she realized Illume's teeth where attached to to it, she blinked up at her sister as the other let go, and after a moment of getting her bearing realized her sister wanted to get up to trouble. When, without a word, Illume turned and fled the den Current would be quick to follow, rising silently and padding after her sister. She quickened her pace once she was out of the den so she could catch up to her sister, looking up at the other girl with bright, trusting eyes. “Where we going 'lume?” she wondered. "Talk" "You" Think
