Although occasional glances to the sky would alert Skyfire to an odd creature circling above her, one she couldn't make out, Sky paid no mind as she continued to eat her rabbit, slowly plucking the fur off as she made her way down the body. While rabbits held little meat on their bones, it would suffice for the time being until she could get something larger to eat. She missed the days where her food was brought to her - when she was younger and couldn't hunt for herself of course. Elk and Bison were typically on the menu for her to eat, but since going out on her own she had little choice in things to eat. She even had to scavenge from time to time, which she greatly displeased. The aged flavor, smell, and toughened meat was really hard to get used to. However, she had to learn to not be picky. It was slow in progress. Being a Queen had its priviliges until you were tossed from your thrown. In her case, she was stolen from it. One day, she would try to claim it back. As she pulled off an ear, a rustling came from the bushes in front of her, and because of the smell radiating from the hot springs, she couldn't smell a thing. When a dark face appeared in the clearing, greeting her softly, Sky relaxed only slightly. She was cautious since she still had food here even though she mostly ate it. "Hello.." she said, noticing that the flying creature above was with him, and that a second creature, a feline, also stalked behind him. It was a peculiar gathering of creatures before her, not one she had seen at home. While Skyfire didn't trust the newcomer, she didn't perceive him as a threat. If he came to steal her meal, he could have it. Skyfire didn't know if he was here for the hot springs, or if he was looking for something else. From the distance, she could smell that he belonged to some sort of pack within the scent of the sulfur. She could only see his face peeking out from the bushes. "I imagine you came here because of the hot springs?" she asked. Besides the other two wolves she met, the hot springs seemed to be a particular popular place. She would have to keep that in mind as she settled into her new home, whatever that was. This place was very different from her other home, and the amount of varying environments was puzzling to her. Skyfire wanted to explore every bit of it, even if it took the rest of her life. The other half of her wanted to reclaim her throne, wherever that would be in whatever pack that would be in. So long as she was treated like a queen, Skyfire didn't really care if she had a throne or not. She demanded and deserved respect, that's what she excepted from anyone these days. Skyfire thinks. Skyfire listens. "Skyfire speaks." |
