We're Falling

Kait thought she caught that flicker, that look of remorse, but it was over so quickly that she second guessed the look. Still, Kait tried to take a step forward, waiting for his answer. Then it came… and Katie froze for a moment, just watching him. Do… whatever she wanted? Her eyes shown with a bit of confusion, not used to this sort of reaction from the older male. She canted her head to the side, giving another soft whine. “Did I say something…?” She couldn’t even bring herself to finish the sentence. Kait looked towards the ground for a long moment before she turned away, casting one last look at Erebos before she started towards the trees.

Maybe he was just hungry… she thought to herself. If he was then it was her job to feed him, right? Her paws began to pick up pace, feeling a bit happier at the thought she had some sort of purpose. It was sad in many ways, how desperately she clung to Erebos in hopes that somehow he wouldn’t give up on her. Her whole life felt like wolves coming and going… she didn’t care if he hurt her. She just wanted him to stay.

Ears perked once she was a small distance from Erebos, nose lifting towards the air. She could smell the water of the pond… though the pond had scared her a time or two. She thought she saw things when she looked in there… but that was crazy, right? She took a small breath and started off for it. Fishing was something pretty easy to do… surely she could get a nice big fish for Erebos and then he’d feel better!
