She is on the edge of the boundary but still obeying the rules. Unlike some of her siblings, Ursa is terrified to leave without her parents. What if it was unsafe out there? What if she was eaten by something? Or got hurt? That fear kept her right on the edge where she could always see the den or the gardens. As long as she was nearby, she was safe, right? Always worried, she continued to work her way around the boundary until a sound caught her attention. While she was adamant to find this elusive flower for her mom, the noise is more important in that moment.
What she sees is her sister slipping back under the rope from outside the boundary. Outside. Ursa's eyes widen as her tail lowers and her worry is now evident on her face. What if Zion had gotten hurt out there? Even though it was obvious from the dirt on her sister's face that whatever she was doing was harmless, they didn't know about any of the big creatures that lurked in the shadows... "Zi-" her voice is cut off when her sister goes into a sneezing attack.
Ursa's fur stands up for a few seconds as the cacophony of her sister sneezing echoes around the clearing. Blinking rapidly, she closes the few feet between her and her sister as the glob of dirt lands on the ground. "Zion, are, are you okay?" The puppy's soft vocals are tender and caring as she reaches up a paw to help wipe away Zion's tears. "Were...were you outside the rope?" She asks more out of curiosity than anything. If Zion thought it safe out there... maybe they could look for the flower together...
