The heat was blistering, burning and yet the young silver girl was not too bad off. Others were hiding from the sun, resting is the coolest place they could find. But Angel was not. Happily she pranced about in the heat. Thing is she had learned long ago that you could chew certain plants for the juices inside to quench your thirst. So she went about her day exploring. But Twig's scent had her on alert. What was her sister doing out in the heat? Concern creased her brows as she went to track her down. With her sister having more darker color than she, surely the heat was getting to her. Unless Twig knew she could chew on plants too. She could see her older sister in the distance, a wavy image from the heat waves. The sudden rumble of the earth sucked her sister down below. Angel had crouched down, alarmed and frozen. A few heartbeat went by before she realized Twig hadn't come back up from the earth. She barked out a soft alarm before racing over to the hole. Once there she slowly approached and circled it till her eyes could adjust to seeing what was down below. She was careful to make sure if she stood at the edge the earth wouldn't give even under her feather like weight. It was then she heard the menacing words spoke to her sister. Hackles raised along her back but more in fear for her sister. She paced around the edge, tail lashing out. Why wasn't Twig defending herself? She must be hurt. She swallowed the lump in her throat before her voice called down. I'm coming down Twig, don't move! Her voice trembled a little but more out of concern for her sister. Body moved from one end of the hole to the other and back before she could see where she could land safely down below. Lowering in a crouch she slide and jumped down into the little cave below, landing to the left of her sister. She grunted as she landed and spun to eye the dark male in her sister's face. Very uncharacteristic of her she let forth a deep rumbling growl as she rushed forwards to stand protectively over her sister. Jaws snapped at the male repeatedly in a warning. She was acting more out of fear the rage as her tail tucked in under her and ears pinned back. I can talk! |
