not strong enough

Renegade was getting older, and he was excited to go out today with his new companions. A baby owl, and an ocelot kitten. The little golden feathered owl blinked with her bright curious eyes, but she hid against Renegade’s neck. Her little feet clasping her wolf’s scruff quills to keep her balance instead of digging her talons into his shoulders. The kitten raced alongside the puppy, no thought of the difference in species getting in the way of their friendship. The ocelot was likely abandoned by its mother because of the strange paws, but he’d been rescued by Venom and practically raised by her squirrel. Which made for an interesting cat.

They were exploring the ravine right now, their den was at the mouth of it so this was the place that Ren knew the best. The sound of a happy singing bird caught the boy’s attention. He was usually nocturnal and didn’t get to hear songbirds very often. Not unless he snuck out after bedtime or was allowed to watch the sun rise. He was older now though, and that meant more freedom and a little responsibility. The young prince was patrolling around the palace, thrilled at his very first day shift.

However excited, he had a job to do, and didn’t take long to find Spirit scouting the same area. Curiosity had the better of him as he spied the bag over the man’s shoulder. With his head tilted slightly in question, "What’cha doin?” He asked in innocent puppy fashion despite how grown up he wanted to be. His ivory speckled tail wagged at his hips.
