A moonlit promise

He and his new bestest friend ever Aoife had made themselves a pact, to meet when the moon was full upon the border of both their lands. Deus hoped that sneaking away was easier for the tiny wolf than it was for him, he'd needed to be very slow and careful as he manuevered out of his mother's arms and across the den floor. Danta had nearly awoken, though Deus was sure that if he explained the pact to his sister that she'd not have turned him in anyways. She was the best big sister in the world, and Deus was thankful to have her.

The walk was even longer then he'd remembered it being, and slower still as he stealthily ninja-dodged each patrolling member of Aerie along with their companions. In truth it was unlikely he'd slipped away unseen, and much more possible that he was being tailed the entire way to the border. Deus had prepared a very good and elaborate excuse anyways should an adult stop his fun, something involving how an Abraxas should never break his promises along with how important a good friend was to a young pup's development. Besides, this was training, and Deus was determined to become the strongest Abraxas that ever lived.

When he eventually reached the meeting point the boy was already tired. He tipped his head back and very nearly howled for his friend, catching himself quickly and snapping his jaws shut loudly. Sneaky ninja. No howls. Instead, his jaws parted in a yawn as he waited for his friend to arrive as scheduled.
