More and more wolves came, some she had never seen before, some she hadn't seen in a long time, some from their pack and even some from others. She looked up at Indigo when he walked in and managed to give him a small smile in return, happy to see her brother again after meeting him in The Hallows. She glanced toward them all as they walked in, the crowd getting bigger and bigger around her. She saw Naiche go over to Tamsyn and spotted Kotori as he went to sit near their father. Her brows lifted with surprise when she saw Mortis and very nearly gave into the excitement of seeing her brother again after so long, but the heavy feeling in the air around them suppressed it. Her attention refocused on her father as he stepped toward them, her ears perking to listen. She felt frozen as the words were spoken to them, hearing them, but not really understanding. Her mother and brother... were gone? She looked at the pile of bones, behind him, her mind spinning. She barely felt Marigold press into her side as her companion caught up to her, everything sounding like it was buzzing in her ears. How could they be gone? They were just going on a trip... The voices of her sisters snapped her out of the trance, her turquoise gaze darting to Gossamer first as her sister immediately declared this to be some sort of test, claiming it couldn't be true, before she stormed off and disappeared. She hopped to her paws to try and stop her, but she felt like she was moving in slow motion and any attempts at words died in her throat. Aris only made things worse, yelling about how their father was lying, cursing at him, denying that these bones could be their family. She watched her sister with horror, completely disappointed in them, shocked that her siblings would speak to their father like this when he was clearly so broken and devastated. There was no reason for him to lie. He wouldn't tell them these things if he didn't truly believe it. She watched Mortis wrap her sister up in a huge, winged hug and she finally tore her gaze away, looking back toward the bones as others began to move forward, joining her father and Asla in digging the grave. She felt like she was lost and numb, floating in place without a direction of where she should go. If she felt like this then she would only imagine how her dad felt... He had loved their mother so much. She hovered uncertainly for a while, glancing around at some of the other wolves. She finally spotted Indigo and started to gravitate toward him, moving to his side just out of lack of knowing where else to go. She couldn't bring herself to move toward the grave or the bones so she hung back, just waiting and watching with sorrow creasing her expression. |
