Hunting

The day is bright, the sun warm and Resin had left their den earlier than normal. Meadow had pretended to be asleep when her sister had left and told herself it was none of her business to follow her sister. Yet, after an hour of sleepless tossing and turning, she had decided to see where the bigger wolf was going. ‘I am just going to make sure she doesn’t hurt herself’ was the reasoning that she came up with. After all, Resin is her responsibility. Moving out into the warm sun, she had stretched out the kinks of sleep and tested the air. Picking up the trail, her nose follows Resin’s scent and eyes find the tracks. Small legs carry her swiftly over the terrain and she marvels at the changing of the scenery. When she reaches the plains, the small wolf’s eyes scan the horizon for any sign of her sister. Keeping to Resin’s tracks, she finds bigger, flat prints that remind Meadow of Goliath’s hooves. A musty smell starts to fill her nostrils and she spies Resin standing on a hill. As Meadow approaches, another wolf appears and, crouching, she advances toward the bigger wolf. The pair obviously sees something that is hidden from the smaller one’s sight. Slowing and taking a cue from the new wolf, Meadow crouches slightly as she moves toward the duo. When she makes it to her sister’s side, she finally sees what they are looking at. Horses! They graze lazily in the sun and do not seem to notice the wolves. With bright eyes she turns to Resin and says quietly, “Horses! Are we going to hunt one?” Eyes sparkle with amazement, at the thought of taking one of those beasts down. Looking to the other wolf she dips her head in greeting and stays silent. She means no disrespect to the other female, there is just a hunt to plan right now. Introductions can come later. Meadow looks to Resin for her leadership. "Meadow"
