That Place in Your Heart

The surroundings were lovely first thing in the morning. The sun hit the water and beach at the lowest level, causing shadows of passersby and tall objects to stretch out. They resembled long, thin fingers that were tempted to grasp a priceless object, one that was shiny and had sentimental value. Alas, as the sun started to slowly rise, the shadows retreated, bit by bit. During that time, a part of the sun hit a sliver of the entrance of a nearby cave. It wasn't the cave that was so interesting, rather what was within it. Although the sun couldn't reach the entire depth of the cave at that time of day, the warmth from its ray was enough to be sent across the cool floor. Along with the winter breeze that found itself to the Southern atmosphere, the duo were enough to stir the thoughts of a sleeping wolf. Curled up in the center of the cave was a female, fur as dark as night and never changing. With her tail across her nose and hiding her features, she could have blended in well. The only exception was the silver outline of her body that stood out against the blackness of the large cave. When the sun's small bit of warmth and the cold breeze swept into her refuge, she awoke. Silent's eyes fluttered open, revealing the emerald jewels that were set beneath their lids. She raised her head, slowly yawned, and looked around sleepily at her surroundings. The cave wasn't lit by the sun yet, so she knew that she had awoken way before noon. The faded glints of the stones set in the walls winked at her from the dark and a soft smile appeared. She loved the place since she had found safety from the storm a few nights ago. If it hadn't been for Bronze, well...she would have been off worse. As she raised her hind leg to scratch behind her ear, she then noticed the vacant spot next to her. Where was Bronze, anyway? The large male had been beside her before she had fallen asleep, but she figured he had returned to Seracia for a bit. She often wondered what it was like there, since he deemed it a wonderful place to stay. It didn't take long for the hunger in her belly to consume her thoughts. Bronze was lightly pushed aside in her mind and she pulled herself up to all fours. Stretching each leg slowly and timidly, she allowed her muscles to wake up before she went anywhere. Sniffing the air in the cavern, she took in the slightly faded scent of Bronze in. She inhaled and closed her eyes, reliving the night before when they had talked, ate, and just enjoyed each other's company. Her heart silently ached, but she bore it as she decided to step to the entrance of the cavern. The ocean's noises came to her ears and her hunger returned, making her eager to begin an early morning hunt for fish. "talking" |
