Lights of Home

Justice lifted her head from her paws as the sound of a vaguely familiar howl trickled through to the den where she'd been keeping vigil on her mother. A beat later more howls joined the first, but she was still staring towards the entrance with a faintly puzzled frown on her muzzle. Who would be calling for Regulus, AND her family? She could almost but not quite place the voice. While she was still thinking, she turned to nuzzle her mother's pale ear. "I'll just go see what's going on, Mum, I'll be back soon and I'll tell you more about the plants I'm learning about, ok?"

She didn't wait for the answer she knew wouldn't come, instead turning to make her way swiftly through the caves and out onto the plains to trot towards the border. She still hadn't quite figured it out when she caught sight of the wolves on the other side of the border, her eyes sweeping over the multitude of strangers and a deepening frown turning down the corners of her mouth. Where had all these wolves come from, and why were they calling for... "Welcome to Celestial. How can I hel...." Her eyes landed on the familiar, though much larger and more filled out than she remembered, form of her brother. The fiercely guarded expression, and words, and all thoughts really, flew away in a sharp squeal as she threw herself suddenly over the border rocks in an attempt to tackle the barely-larger white sibling. "KNIGHT! You came back! You're home! You're..." Suddenly all her leaping and licking and cuddling stopped as a fierce snarl replaced her happy kisses, and she attempted to shove him back onto his haunches with her sturdy chest and shoulders. "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING RUNNING OFF LIKE THAT YOU HAD EVERYONE SO WORRIED AND WE THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD AND YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE HELPING WITH MOM, AND VALOR AND DAD ARE MISSING, AND I'VE BEEN DOING THIS ALL BY MYSELF AND I NEEDED YOU."

She planted herself in front of him, and had she been human her hands would have been firmly on her hips in the very image of furious indignation, almost adorably so in a fluffy-little-teddy-bear way. A fluffy little teddy bear you might want to think twice about cuddling - the way she wrinkled her nose to bare her fangs said she was considering using them. Never-you-mind that she herself had been gone until very recently, this was about Knight, not her, and she was so very clearly pissed off about it. "Well, what do you have to say for yourself, waltzing in here like it ain't no thing, huh?"
