Her eyes were drifting shut when the sounds of movement caused an ear to swivel on her head as it came closer. Hester's eyes snapped open as she kept herself from shooting to her paws and readying for battle. She needed, first, to see where they wer-- The sound was suddenly much closer to her, and Hester stood immediately, charging forward and swiveling so that her golden eyed gaze would land on the man that had been behind her. He blended with the night, and had she not had such good vision, she might have missed his form completely but for the white that adorned him.
"Can I help you?" she said dangerously, quietly into the night. This one, Hester noted, carried the same scent of the pack lands that were now at her back with her movement. "I don't take kindly to strangers stepping on me while I my sleep." Her gaze was shrewd, her words reproachful in the nighttime gloom. She heard other sounds (those of Bast, but she was unaware) and wondered if this man had brought friends with him.
Her tail flagged behind her, whipping side-to-side in astute irritation, and she parted her lips to speak again when louder, faster movement caught her ear. Audits pricked forward immediately, studying the forest behind him. The trees weren't close, in these parts, and so though it did surprise her, somehow it made sense that a grizzly could fit between them without trouble. Especially when it was charging directly at them.
"Grizzly!" she shouted, eyes wide as she quickly moved to the other side of the tree, the opposite of where she'd been. She assumed the stranger would obey because she also assumed that no one wanted to be caught unawares with one of the Mother's largest predators nearby. It stopped, slavering, hulking beast that it was, and reared on it's hindlegs. It's roar shattered the air, and Hester hunched low, prepared to move as it surveyed the two wolves before it.
She walks. "She speaks." She thinks.
