Lonely Soul

A cool salt laced breeze ruffles the babes crimson fur as she stands knee deep in the warm lagoon. Her mind is blank she she peers out towards the horizon, silhouettes of dolphins and whales crashing back and forth upon the waters surface. A smile curls her lips as she watches their graceful dance. If only she could be as free and careless as those who live within the oceans depths. Like wolves they were social creatures, and almost always lived in large family groups. The only difference was the babe was awfully standoffish, and only invited those into her life that could benefit her in some way. She is selfish, controlling, and heartless. There was no denying that she is fully aware of her sour attributes... but maybe if she could learn to change her ways she could live a comfortable life like they did, always surrounded by the ones who loved and cared for them.

Her daydreaming mind is startled when the slimy skin of something beneath her brushes against her ebony leg. Chills roll down her spine, her hackles raise and her lips curl. She backs up, her head reclining toward the waters surface as she peers into the murky water. Nothing. Maybe a fish had accidentally bumped into her? Whatever it was, she was glad that it was gone now. She exhales a sigh of relief, and slowly wades further out into the oceans depths. Maybe she could see how long it would take until the sand dropped off into an empty abyss. She didn't have much else to do today except enjoy her vacation in Auster.
