Thunderstorm Thunderstorm Go Away

A thundering crack sounded overhead, waking the small wolf from her slumber. Her fur stood on end and her tail flagged with alarm, her entire frame lifting from the dirt to stare worriedly outside her den. Between the thunderclaps the soft padding of rain against the roof sounded overhead, and she stepped forward to slowly to peek her head out from the cave and into the onslaught.

Another crack, and she was running. She wasn't sure where she was going exactly, only that she needed to get away. She'd been terrified of storms since she was a pup, and when a particularly bad one such as this brewed overhead Zee would always find comfort in her family's warm den. They'd tell stories and laugh and she'd do her best to ignore the terrifying sounds outside.

The ravine was treacherous, her paws making their way skillfully along the drenched stone and mud on the most familiar path she knew - towards Deathbelle's den. Not once along her sprint did it occur to her that her empress might not appreciate being awoken in the late hours of the night because her handmaiden was afraid. She only craved comfort and safety, and unfortunately found herself short on individuals who could provide that in Ashen.

Just as her mistress' den came into sight, another flash of light lit up the sky. She skidded to a stop and threw herself sideways to huddle shivering underneath a fern beside some boulders. Ears pinned tightly against her small skull, and she peered out from underneath the leaves at the foreboding sky - waiting anxiously for the boom she knew would follow the strike.
