Abandonment

The yearling's bright gaze would dwindle on the pup's small form, it became quite obvious that he was wary. She would fold her ears sympathetically, hoping he wasn't too fearful of her. The chocolate colored boy would step away, obviously weary of her appearance. Novel would consciously do her best to keep from moving too much, she was afraid shed scare him into one of the pools! Instead he would look to his feet, cold tones fleeing dark lips. Concern would certainly grip her, something was not right. Suddenly they were not alone, Aurora's daughter Zlata would appear in the clearing. She seemed quite defensive, her fur all poofy. Novel had to stifle a giggle, but there was a serious situation at hand. Words would spill from the child's lips, she could feel her heart breaking not being able to just cuddle them both up. At the same time she would realize the reason the two pups were so suspicious. Aurora and Magnus were gone. They didn't know where their parents were, and Novel had just assumed they were with the newborns. She hadn't seen the pups personally since before their eyes opened. "I thought they were with you pups. I'm Novel, I was there when you guys were born." she would keep her simple smile as she continued, letting her chest fall to the ground. "How long have they been missing?" She was concerned for their safety, knowing Aurora was one of her moms best friends. "Is this the first time you've left the den?" she was quite curious, and wondered about how much they knew of the world outside the den. She wanted to know how various she should be with them so close to the water.?
