An' what's a fresher start than a new generation?” She tipped her head, her smiling growing easier as he joined her back on the path to the summit. When he agreed to her terms, all titles and baggage was dropped, her tail waving welcomingly at her back as they continued their ascent.

As her head came over the crest, her breath caught in her throat and a smile split her face. “Sure is somethin' huh?” She bumped her shoulder against Charlton's companionably, her gaze zeroing in on the volcano, an ear tipping towards the earthen hued boy. “We aren' tha' different. I wanna start a band so we don' have ter be stuck in one place. There's too much world out there.” Her feline claws scratched slightly at the rock beneath her paws as she flexed her toes to try and relive some of the itching in them. It was worth the swim.
