Our greatest fear realized

It was almost strange being back here, surrounded by her family as they slept. She wasn’t used to it anymore and so her sleep was restless at best, the vixen moving between wakefulness and fitful sleep. So it came as no surprised that the calls of her siblings pulled her so easily from sleep. Blinking sleepily she cocked her head, before the urgency in her sister’s voice snapped her into gear. She nudged her twin with a silver paw. "Sol get up, somethings-" she paused for a moment, suddenly aware of the creeping chill of water soaking at her toes. "The waters rising!" The realization struck her like lighting and she felt sudden panic wash over her.

"Locha!" She called out for her sister, approaching with a trot. "You get everyone out of the den, I’ll direct them to higher ground!" It would be safer for her water logged sister to stay here while she sought out higher ground but she also couldn’t abandon anyone here. She really didn’t wait for much of an answer, quickly she scanned the den, took a mental head count and pounded out onto the beach.

Immediately she was struck by how much the water had risen, it pulled at her ankles. She skirted wide around the rising tide and put her back to the safety of the prairie to watch for other emerging wolves, ready to help those who might be disoriented by the darkness or the sudden pull from their sleep.
