Second chances

Her slender, petite frame wandered in circles. Her steps were anxious and brisk as she wandered back to the red woods, her path familiar and easy. The reverse of her travel before. She was coming back to where it all started, where she had lain eyes on her eldest brother; the white Kringle Noel. She hadn't really expected to find any relations here except... Except the siblings she pined after. What if they were taken? Her black ears swiveled in circles as she explored the red forest, her heart skipping a desperate beat. Her ocean-blue eyes scanning, searching for signs, her nostrils flared... Perhaps she had missed something here, lost in conversation with Noel, that would lead to their discovery...
But time was slipping away from her. It was more and more evident that she would not find them. She searched the woods in circles. They weren't here. They hadn't been here. She found an unfamiliar sting in her eye. It was so frustrating. She had to let go, and she knew at the bottom of her heart that she did, but she couldn't... She hated the idea of giving up on them. It was a new kind of grief all over; the shattering pain she had suffered at the murder of her parents. But this time it was different. They had slipped away from her, she had no idea if they were out there, needing her. A deep sigh left the young woman's soul and she was about to lie under a tree when a scent stirred her nostrils. She was not alone.
The furs along her back stood up and she straightened her spine, eyes scanning the area. "Hello?" She called out, her voice defensive. Her hackles were raised and her muscles tensed until she spot him. An older male coated in the sun's brilliant yellow, his eyes a fiery red. Black charcoal coated him as well. She studied his elegant frame for a moment and then lead her ocean blue to his red eyes. She could not trust him. "Who are you?" she asked, her voice still a warning. She was smaller. Her only strength could be in her projection; in her pretense of strength, her promise to defend herself if need be. It was written all over the woman's body: She had been broken before. She would not let it happen again.
OOC: Sorry for the wait! Just found it (:
