The Last Night

She looked back, making sure her uncle was following without difficulty. He seemed to always be doing well, but she couldn't help but to worry and fret over him nonetheless. Especially now that he was old. He was the oldest wolf she knew, and she also knew that at some point he would grow too old to stay with her. When that day came, she didn't know what she'd do. She had been with him for years now, he was the only family she had. The only one she trusted. He had helped her immensely with her confidence, taught her how to fight and everything in between. Crimson gaze mirrored his, and if she didn't know better she would have thought he was her true father. But in a way, he was. Ever since her real father had abandoned her, Kakashi had been there. And she couldn't be more grateful to have him in her life.

Evening was approaching, and soon the night sky would blanket them. Her uncle's warning about finding a place to settle down sounded appealing to her, but she wanted to find a few things before the light was completely gone. Maybe they could find a place to rest and the herbs at the same time? "Alright, but...I still need to find those herbs! You need to take your medicine tonight!" She chided, laughing as she watched him cringe.
