Askan appears and Meadow’s attention is diverted to him. As he steps to her side and places himself beside and slightly in front of her, the small healer offers him a smile. While they have not been able to get to know each other very well, the earthen hued wolf does know the fighter. Something about the way he is being protective and placing himself between her and the skittish wolf has her feeling grateful. Something just feels off about the new wolf.

And suddenly she is extremely appreciative to Askan. The new wolf backs away and snarls at them causing her gentle smile to falter and drop. When he tells them to get away, Meadow instinctively takes a small step forward, confusion on her face. Is he okay? But then he wounds her to the core. His next words cut her and she halts her steps, hurt written plainly on her features. Did she say something wrong? Had she done something horrible rude?

BITCH.

The word reverberates in her head and each time she hears it, that label injuries her a little more. Tears prick her eyes and threaten to build but she pushes them away. Unconsciously she shrinks, tail tucking, frown pulling her mouth down and ears drooping. He had hurt her and she had only tried to help. She wants to run away and hide but she resists the urge. Looking to her protector, sadness and hurt plain to see, Meadow tries to draw strength from him.

After a moment the anger sets in and she stands to her full height, fury overriding the pain. Looking up at the unknown wolf, she tells him, “You are the one who came to our lands. I thought you might need help so I came to offer it. If you do not want it then leave. We will not make you stay but you will not go around being mean to anyone in our pack.” Her stance is defiant, head held high, anger in her eyes. He came to their lands, he can just as easily leave.
