Our lives are made in these small hours

Ciannait was kind in response, wishing her the best of luck in the race as well. Maybe it was silly for them to reintroduce themselves when the pairings were called but Lucy didn’t really care about that. She wanted to remember the girl she was racing, even if she bore a pack scent. As of the moment, none of the packs held any name in her brain; they were just the backs of Boreas or Auster. Perhaps one day she’d care to learn which was which, but for now, Luce only cared about getting the race underway with Cian. She wasn’t going to make it easy for her larger opponent, that was for sure.

While Ciannait would have the longer, perhaps more graceful strides, covering ground overall easier, Lucette’s smaller frame was ideal for quickly maneuvering around objects that might bar her path. The russet-marked girl was hoping to use that to her advantage in their race, despite having never had one. Hmm, maybe she’d have to drag Bae-Syl into doing something like this sometime, just for the fun of course. She was sure the rainbow-marked yearling would agree to the idea - she hadn’t been told no yet, after all.

Lucette dug her nails into the earth and rolled her own shoulders forward as she widened her stance. Her ears lowered toward her skull and her eyes narrowed with determination; if her rival won Lucy swore it wouldn’t be easy. Her head lowered aligned with her spine and she prepared herself for launch as Cian counted them down. One… two… three!

That was all Luce needed to hear to take off. She kicked off the ground, moving forward across the grassy landscape with her tail flying like a banner behind her. Instead of looking around, to see where Ciannat might be, she kept her gaze focused forward, tunneled on what was in front of her. The sound of her own paws hitting the earth rose back up and reached her ears as she ran, along with the sound of the nearby rapids. She could feel her heart racing, a burst of adrenaline being what encouraged her to keep her current pace. Now, so long as she kept out of the way of any rocks, trees, or roots she should be golden! She had purposely avoided going too close to the water, knowing a slip in there could be dangerous for someone as tiny as her.
