Join me in song - ABAVEN PACK RECRUITING

For a moment the woman seemed furious and all he could think of was what he had done to make her so angry. He whined softly, expecting her to surge forward and bite him, just as Shiloh would have done, or Antigone,  or any of the others who found his stuttering and whining unbearable and sought to promptly beat him into silence. Instead the woman asked if he knew how to get to the rapids, which he answered with a silent nod. The concept of someone being angry on his behalf had never occurred to him, never in his life had anyone defended him selflessly or without the expectation that they could take something from him. Shyly, cautiously, he stood and skulked eastward, glancing over his shoulder to see if the woman was about to chase him down. When she stayed in place Spider moved into a soft trot that quickly broke into a run, eastbound, toward the rapids, toward Abaven, and hopefully toward a brighter future.
