Dust Devils

**Set before Enki turns himself over to Insomnia**


There has been plan that Enki has been silently entertaining in the back of his mind. The repercussions of it will be felt through his family and so, the boy has yet to act on it. But as more days pass with the possibility of being found and dragged back to Insomnia lands against his will… well, it is beginning to sound nice. Since the idea has made the boy restless, he has started taking long walks. Sometimes, he doesn’t return to Ashen for a few days.

Paws pull the boy to the beginning of the land bridge that unites Boreas and Auster. His head is lowered, gaze on his paws as he is lost deep in thought. For the millionth time, he weighs the pros and cons in his head when a shouted voice pulls his attention up. Stopping mid-stride, Enki quickly lifts his baby blue eyes from his paws and finds a tall pup running toward him. With him, is a pudgy polar bear that is waddling franticly trying to keep up with the pup’s pace as a funnel made of sand chases them.

Winds whip in every direction, tugging at the lanky teenagers form in an attempt to pull him over. Enki is surprised to find that it is beginning to rain and that the weather has suddenly turned foul. Without hesitation, the boy leaps forward, racing toward the pup and shouting in an attempt to be heard over the howling winds and pounding rain, “Get down!” The funnel of sand will not hurt them but the sudden storm might send them into the water that now rages around the pair. Time slows as he races out toward the pup.
