How To Have Zoomies And Make New Friends

Hikaru tried to stay within the Armada’s borders, but now that the sun had finally returned his pale paws carried him further than a quick patrol with Kotori or a breakfast stroll with Mortis. This morning he was alone, which was a rare occurrence after he’d recovered from the sickness. He never wanted to be apart from Mortis ever again. Though he struggled with what that meant for the boy he loved he knew he couldn’t live any other way.

Hika was cautious, after the madness of the long night he wasn’t sure what to expect. Then he was very nearly bowled over by whoever was making the noise. Hikaru managed to back up just fast enough the pup just continued down the path but his heart was definitely beating now. Was that a child that just went through? Hikaru was perplexed, but waited for the next swing around. There seemed to be endless energy in puppies, if only they could harness that.
