We're the ones that made you
She was furious. More than she should be, but still...she had made it clear that she did not want them wandering off on their own, not when she knew the kind of threats that lurked out there. Normally she wouldn't have minded so much, but after that day...she shook her head. No way in Hell would she let something bad happen to her kids. She moved behind Reinhardt, her strides long and quick as she tracked down her son. Bellum had a habit of wandering around, but usually kept in the vicinity. But for him to wander off and away without saying anything was not okay. Bi-colored eyes searched for signs of his whereabouts, though what helped most was her nose and his paw prints. She would find him, and she'd make sure he knew not to do it again. She huffed, wondering what she should do...they couldn't stay loners forever, it wasn't safe. She had to seek out her sister, no matter how embarrassing or shameful her run in with that male had been that led to her conceiving these boys, she had to find Avalon. She missed her sister, and if she still had the pack that Liar had spoken of, then it would be safe for them there.
Her eyes watched Reinhardt every now and then, the boy keeping up better than she expected at this pace. While she loved her boys, she couldn't tell them how they came to be. She didn't want them to think that they were bastard children, or that she'd love them any less because of it. She loved them dearly, and didn't blame them for anything. They were each unique in their own way, even going as far as having imaginary friends it seemed. Her thoughts would quickly pull back to her tracking as a fresh new scent came to her. As soon as she recognized the scent, her hackles bristled and her pace quickened. Teeth bared as she raced to follow Bellum's scent. Reinahrdt followed behind her. She barreled through bushes and foliage, not caring when branches poked and scratched her skin. Her paws drummed upon the ground, ears flattened as she hurried.
There, ahead, she saw him. Flashbacks began to race across her vision, but...she was stronger now. She would fight him to the death if she had to in order to protect her sons. He would not hurt them like he had hurt her! A rabid snarl escaped her maw as she leaped over another bush, landing square between Bellum and Elias. Reinhardt nearly collided with her hind legs, but the boy knew to stay back. Aures' head was lowered, hackles raised, eyes narrowed and ears pinned as her muzzle wrinkled. She had all the ferocity now, unlike last time...her body was stiff, tail flagged out. "You stay away from them!" She snarled, eyes piercing. |
