Only the ocean

Smiling brightly as Hanako quickly agrees to help in the search, Meadow finds her tail wagging without a thought. As the colorful wolf bounds out of room, after telling the smaller female that she will call out, Meadow finds herself yelling after explorer, “Hanako, please be careful! We don’t know what the building is like!” Worry stabs at her heart as the younger wolf disappears from sight. This place looks old and who knows if it is structurally sound. What if Hanako goes exploring and finds a weak spot in the flooring or part of the walls fall down and onto her. The sudden urge to follow her and make sure the larger female is alright is overwhelming.

Meadow tries to talk herself through the anxiety attack she finds herself suddenly experiencing. ‘It is okay. Hanako can take care of herself. Don’t smother her. Other wolves can resent it when you try to be over protective. Just relax.’ Talking herself through the worst of it and regulating her breathing so she doesn’t start to hyperventilate, Meadow calms herself enough to function. Paws move her slowly in the direction Hanako had disappeared and eyes scan the area for any weaknesses or dangerous spots. Her progress is slow and, as the sunlight starts to dim, the small wolf finds the fear starting to bubble up again.

Making her in way in, all thoughts of collecting herbs gone, Meadow’s overriding concern now is to make sure her friend is safe. Calling out tentatively into the dark, “Hanako? Are you okay? Where… where did you go?” This place is maze and the halls and rooms bewilder and disorient her. Did she lose Hanako? Is her friend hurt? Panic sets in and Meadow starts to call out, “Hanako? Hanako? I can’t find you. Please answer me.” She begs for the colorful wolf to answer her as tears start to well in her eyes.
