It was foolish really for Emer to continue on in this manner, not simply because her abused body desired and deserved rest and care, but because she truly wasn't in her right state of mind to travel, especially not in an area that she was likely to find company. It probably had it's benefits, a more populated area perhaps stood less chance of her being attacked once more when there were wolves around to witness any sort of crime but she really had no clue where she was at this moment in time, for all she knew she could wander into the lands of another pack.
So oblivious to her surroundings she hadn't noticed the fleeing hare as she walked close by, disrupting their breakfast. One perhaps could have been a meal for her, some form of nutrition that might possibly stir her from this barely concious state. The lost opportunity for breakfast of course wasn't the main thing she had to worry about, a fact that was soon rather apparent to all but her. The presence of the black and white male should have been picked up upon, one of her senses surely should have detected his presence though Emer had no idea that she was no longer alone.
"Miss, are you alright?" It took her a moment to register that there was a voice, and even then the meaning of the words was completely lost to her. Head moved in her sluggish manner at first as she twisted to look in his direction, her normally bright eyes seeming dulled by the trauma suddenly filled once more with fear as she finally acknowledged that Jinxx was there. She gasped, body somehow finding the energy to move quicker as she turned to face him, tail tugged firmly between her legs. At this point her muddled mind couldn't decipher even whether it was a male or a female before her, all she saw was another threat. "No! Please! No! No! The terrified words spilled from her lips, though they were weak, her dry throat felt as though it hadn't been used for weeks.
