crying wolf

Ruin watched, observed, with keen interest as the strange creature stood there and weighed up her words. Not a drop of fear coursed through her veins, as thus far the world hadn't proven to be a scary place.

She knew though that animals with long and spindly legs were skittish, even fleeing at the mere scent of a wolf, so she couldn't help but wonder what it would take to scare this creature, what buttons she and her brother would need to press...It sounded like a fun game, one that could be aided along with the clever use of a lie or two.
