Not my Time

Isabella liked to make trips to the west now that Alphonso was with her, it gave him a chance to feel at home and to walk around her a bit. Which he was the the moment by scrambling far off to her side, never to far enough to be out of her sight though. Isabella did not like it when her small friend was too far awya to see, even if he was a predator to the insets he gleefully ate he was a snack for most other things. As she walked forward she turned her icy blue eyes over to him every now and then before turning them back forward and going on with her head and ears a bit higher than before to stay on alert. Her tail was also up, waving like a sandy banner behind her matching her fox like fur.


Alphonso was having fun, going this way and that, stretching his legs, letting his own nose and eyes guide him. He paused though when a new scent came to him, a wolf and one he did not know. He looked back at Isabella who did not seem to pick up the scent yet. With a smirk the suddenly sprinted toward the scent, somewhat fearless since he had a wolven guardian.

Isabella heard the movement and looked over to see him running figuring he was just enjoying himself. Watching him carefully she moved forward a little with no doubt he would come back. But he didn't, instead he found his way to the front of another wolf. This one, large and black with scars. It looked angry and figuring he could either cheer him up or cause some mischief he spoke. "Hello there wolf, you look a little worse for wear." He smiled looking up to the wolf with a flick of his tail. he had no doubt the wolf had ever heard a gecko speak before and wanted to see the reaction.

Meanwhile, Isabella grew worried and turned her head searching for her friend. She stopped her coarse and walked in the direction of Alphonso only to pause when she caught the scent of another wolf. "Oh that lizard!" She thought gritting her teeth. Speeding up she ran fast enough to get to the gecko before anything happened. Standing tall she locked her eyes on the other wolf once she was sure Alphonso was just out of his range. Her appearance would have been somewhat sudden to the stranger and perhaps seeming of a challenge. Though she made it clear she was not seeking a fight as she paused and lowered her tail a bit.

"I apologize for the rather sudden intrusion on your privacy but someone forced me to be so rude."Her words were not fully emotionless but they were indeed icy. The chill was directed at Alphonso, scolding him and clearly calling him back over to her. The gecko did not listen but did move closer to her than the stranger just in case something should go wrong. "There are things to be said for not befriending one that could be a snack." Her next words were normal, emotionless and a rather bad attempt at a joke.
