Ashes Of The Innocent

Mortar had all but given up on finding a new family to stick around. Other than his sister that was it. He had every intention of trying to find Caliber and Arsenal, but in the mean time he was just going to explore. If Ricky held true to her promise she'd find him one way or another (he couldn't imagine she'd be happy about it) so he'd stopped trying to track her down again. He hated the idea of intruding upon her life and being a nuisance to her. He didn't want to push her away and make her hate him.

So he took to traveling to help pass the time. A part of him wanted to visit Donostrea's old lands, but he decided against it. Dragging back old memories and feelings wasn't going to help him so he took a different route. Eventually he came to the sea. Toes dug into the sand as he stopped at the waters edge. It was noon so the hot sun beat down on his pelt mercilessly, but a cooler sea breeze swept across the ocean which helped cool him. He peered out towards the horizon and he could see an island.

He played around with the idea of a swim. He was curious to see what was out there and it didn't look like it was too far of a swim. The downside was drowning, but Seraphiel had taught him to swim. He'd be okay, right?

He supposed he'd figure that out.

The large wold waded out into the water until his feet couldn't touch the sand anymore. The water was unusually warm, but it felt better than the sun so he couldn't complain. Eventually he passed a coral reef, something he'd never seen before, and as he swam past he grinned down at the fish he could see. Eventually his paws touched sand once more and he drug himself up onto the island. The first thing he noticed was how bright and colorful it was. The second ... well that part wasn't so fun. The many sounds of different birds rung in his ears and he realized this must be a haven for them. Trying to ignore them he plopped down in the warm sand to let his pelt dry and to take a rest before he continued his journey to explore.
