light up my life

Aslatiel had just been leaving the territory when the call for her rang out. Dark ears instantly perked and the girl turned her head back towards where her family lay asleep. Well, most of them anyway. Indigo was clearly wide awake and, with his howl, would most likely be rousing the rest of them. The girl was torn. She didn't want to be like this around her brother. He was so empathetic that he seemed to absorb her emotion. It was bad enough that she was like this, she didn't want him being upset either. After thinking about it for a few minutes, she decided to turn back, not able to deny Indigo.

Through the darkness she crept, sticking to the shadows to avoid being seen by any that might still be awake. Eventually she came to where she thought the call had originated from. The glass house was empty though so she continued on. If he wasn't in his garden, maybe he was in Aunt Io's garden. It was there that she found him. Or nearby, at least. Coming out of the shadows into a pool of moonlight, the small wolf pricked her ears forward, purple gaze falling upon her equally purple sibling. She didn't say anything, nor did she move closer. She simply stood and looked at him.
