With some careful footwork, the girls were able to sneak away from their sleeping mother and father, and Rory could feel her heart beginning to beat excitedly in her chest the second she had stepped full and clear of them both. Free... Free! She would have taken off running right then, likely to ruin the whole midnight escape, had Ray not set the tone with her careful, slow speed. The blue pup's paws itched to take off, and with bouncing steps she tread right on her sister's heels, casting quick, peeking glances back at her parents that made her smile all over again. It was actually working!
By the time they reached the trees Seraphiel had already scouted out, Rory could wait no longer. She darted ahead, hoping to be the first beneath the dark cover of the trees, and growled a note of triumph as she spun around and leaped animatedly. They did it! They were free! She was so excited she could have run laps around Ray if she wanted to stand still, which she did. Though she had been the brains of the operation and Rory stood staring at her expectantly, tail unable to stop wagging, her grey-toned sister only glanced in either direction with a shrug of her shoulders, showing a lack of direction and initiative.
What's this? Aurora wondered as she stared in puzzlement at her sister, inclining her head slightly to the side in curiosity. It had been her idea to come out this way. Did she not have something in mind for them to do now that they were here? Hmph. That was silly. The blue pup, drawing herself up importantly, made a very unladylike snort. Guess she needed to pick something for them to do. But...what? She really did want to run - now that she was awake and out here she had way too much energy to burn - and if Ray did not have any ideas...
Her grin returning suddenly, Rory darted forward and reached out to swat her sister's foreleg quickly with her paw - not altogether gently in her haste - and just as quickly dashed away, hoping her sister would catch on and jump into pursuit.
