 It was too hot. The air was sticky and Oleander felt like he was choking every time he drew in a deep breath. Cedar led him closer and closer to a shaded forest, but even there the heat was pouring all around him. The scent of herbs didn't bother him, but it did make it harder to track prey. With a sigh he shook himself, feeling like he was wet even though his coat was completely dry. He never thought that he would not be thankful for summer, but this time he was wasn't so sure about it. Turning towards his brother, he stopped for a small rest and signaled for the smaller canine to scout ahead. Taking his time to try and recapture his breath, he leaned against the young tree with a sigh. Rubbing his itchy head against the rough bark, he peeked around the trunk when he heard the jackals rough bark. Blinking his blue eyes, his head fell to one side in question. But Cedar didn't say anything, his eyes wide and a shocked look on his face. What now? Had he found something? Curious, he rose to his paws and followed his companion, fighting against the swirling feeling in his belly. It was hard to smell much of anything with the overpowering plant scent, making it even harder for him to figure out what he was being lead towards. It wasn't until a brown form started to manifest through the waves of heat that his heart truly started to pound. He couldn't be certain, but there was something inside him that clung fast to the hope. But the closer they got, the more he understood why Cedar had been in shock. It was Peregrine, the woman he spend months looking for. Oleander's heart hammered in his chest as his breath stuck in his throat, his paws eating up the ground until he was directly behind her. Without stopping, he nearly crashed into her backside, excited yips leaving the normally reserved male. His tail swung behind him as his eyes came to life all over again, the jackal watching with a small smile on your face. "Est revera vobis Ubi eras? Hoc Quousque iam fuit?" Ollie was so eager that his words came tumbling out in Latin without him even realizing it. "SPEAK" -- "CEDAR SPEAKS" -- "SPEAK LATIN" |
Oleander speaks Latin, but is fluent in English. Cedar is a black backed jackal and is always with Ollie unless otherwise stated.
