The sleep that had taken Halo was, without a doubt, the most comfortable and sound that she'd ever enjoyed. She slept long and hard, having fallen asleep before the sun had even set. She only woke once in the night to relieve herself, but otherwise, slept straight through. This alone was rare for her. Though a bit anxious and uncertain by nature, it was clear that Halo had really found safety here. There was a pack that surrounded her. In time, Halo would meet them. She'd learn their names, their faces, and their medical history as best she could. What an exciting future lay before her here. Sunlight filtered through the mouth of her borrowed den, waking her early in the morning. Restful sleep followed by gently waking up. Though Halo was still sore from yesterday's exertion, it was a good sore-- the sore that she'd earned. Halo still felt the warm pride of the praise from Sirius the day before. Have pride, little one. You're courageous, if not experienced. It was reinforcement like that which would push her further, and that had her wanting to put more time into learning how to defend herself. More time, more energy. Halo would make him proud. From the mouth of the borrowed Den, Halo heard a soft voice. Still bleary eyed, but awake, the pale girl rose to her paws. Lady Halo, the words came-- Lady? That was new, and Halo was curious. She drew curiously to the morning sunlight. "Good morning," the tenderhearted girl replied. It took her a moment to get her bearings, blinking hard in the golden sunlight. Halo gave a yawn and a deep stretch, shaking the remaining dust from her coat. "Sorry," she apologized sheepishly. Right, it was rude to yawn without ducking her head away. "He asked you to show me around, right?" Her question came as she realized just how well rested she truly was. At Halo's haunches, her tail wagged. This really was exciting. Carefully, Halo stretched her hip, feeling the particular soreness of muscles that worked particularly intently while swimming. She'd earned the soreness, and the soft girl was pleased with that. |
