Practice Makes Perfect

It was the middle of the night, and the child was being a very, very naughty little thing. Sure she remembered Regulus’ lesson, how not all wolves were good. That was fine! She didn’t need them all to be good, she thought. If some were bad then she had to become stronger so she could protect herself and her family. One training lesson wasn’t enough! But rather than ask her brother for another Rassie had snuck out again to go practice on her own.

Once she was far enough from the den the girl did her best to mimic the defenses her brother taught her. She started with her stance, spreading her limbs yet keeping them squared, spreading her toes and biting her claws into the soil. Then she flicked her ears back and narrowed her eyes. She tucked her tail and then paused. He’d taught her more... But... These moves were already feeling a bit weird. Rassie sighed. Would she ever get used to this?
