12 hours in and broken hearted
11-10-2015, 04:47 PM
The heavy brute was tired, a state he only reacted normally by the aid of Voltage and his brothers tireless energy. The truth of the matter was, they had been searching for hours. The sun had long faded, and the air had started to chill with the night. He could see a soft fog of breath before his face, but little else in the encroaching darkness. The fear of hypothermia setting in was a real threat, and with every passing hour the chances of finding their missing girl went down. However, they where not even at the 12 hours mark, and he could not begin to imagine slowing the search until they reached the 24 hours. He didn't hold out any hope that Gale and Locha where fearing any better then himself and Voltage. They where under strict instructions to howl if they caught a single clue to Illume's whereabouts. Him and Voltage had been taking turns being one on land and one in the water, neither having the stamina to remain swimming for long periods of time. With the approach of darkness however Glacier was reluctant to give up his position in the sea. Even through his thick coat he could feel the cool on his soaking skin and he imagined Voltage on land, still soaking from his last trip in the water was feeling even worse. He couldn't imagine letting his brother back into the water, then it would not be just daughter at risk of hypothermia. As the pre-determined fifteen minute slowly approached, Glacier said nothing. Diving beneath the water once more, through he couldn't see beyond his paws in the water, and his eyes where rimmed with red from the salty sea. He tore his head out from the water again, chattering teeth glancing skywards. Poor Current... he hoped Gaia had succeeded in keeping her locked in the den out of the cold “ILLUME” he howled, through his voice was nearly hoarse from the constant call. |
