Alone on the outside, so tired of looking in Both of the boys could feel the excitement welling up within them. They would be all on their own for the first time trying to secure themselves a meal. Mercury was still slightly at a loss as to if they'd even catch anything. He had yet to go on a hunting expedition and so the hope for success was quite grim. It didn't help when Faolan's words fell from pale lips. "There are so many scents, Mercury. How are we going to tell which one leads to the right food?" Mercury's own nose would inhale at the scents he wished to identify, and he found it hard to single out a single one. Everything belnded so well together, it was difficult to tell what was going on. He could easily identify wolves by their scent, but he had only taken notice in close proximities and fresh trails. "I don' smell any prey Faolan." It seemed that his brother had caught something before Mercury could even try. He would walk confidently from the underbrush as he voiced his discovery, "I smell rabbit. Do you?" Mercury followed his pallid brother and put his nose to the scent, it was certainly rabbit. "I do! Lets get it!" His grin was wide. He hoped Faolan knew what he was doing, because he'd only be good at scaring a poor rabbit. But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope And that makes me feel brave [Mercury] |
