A firefly-watching spy?!

Admittedly Misery had wanted someone else to join him out here but the ideal had been for Misery to steal go unnoticed and hopefully see something interesting.  The next best thing would have been to met a wolf he could charm.  What Misery got was first a noisy bird interrupting his musings followed by another wolf around his own age charging towards him.

Damn.  He should have brought Carnage, she would have welcomed the fight.  Could he have lured her onto another packs turf? Hmm, he’d have to wonder about that later. “But –“  Misery called out as the wolf came flying at him with clearly no intention for debate.  Misery would gladly kill that bird at somepoint if he could do so without being found out.

The young wolf had found ice and snow to be his best friend, as the much much larger wolf came at him Misery dug a front paw in the snow and flung it in the air, along with some twigs and grass that was stuck in it.  The snow just wasn’t deep enough here to totally obscure such things but anything thrown at the wolf would work for Misery.

Misery wasn’t use to fighting anyone so tall as Senryu and found himself dashed to the ground as the wolf threw himself on top of them.  He started to spin about to attempt to bite the other wolf when he changed tactic and cowered instead, hunching his shoulders, and tail curling up under his belly.  Unfortunately the way he was laying under the wolf’s weight it probably wasn’t visible but still, there was a clear sign of giving up.  Misery was about to offer words of apology but stared as one of the fireflies landed on Senryu’s nose.  It was so close and so bright!  They definitely seemed to give off more light than the ones in summer time, the wolf before him was cast in an eerie glow as other fireflies flew above them both, their abnormal blue lighting surely the reason.
