Sorrel had stirred slightly as Cerise had crept outside, lazily blinking open his eyes had had caught sight of her leaving, an action that had caused him to suddenly fully wake up. His gaze had moved to the still sleeping form of his twin and suddenly he felt rather confused. He didn't want to get into trouble, but equally so didn't want Cerise to get into trouble. Or, perhaps she had gone to find their parents, he quite liked that idea, but was still concerned that his sister might be doing something wrong.
Cautiously he rose. "F?li, I have to find Cerise. She might get into trouble." He informed his brother quietly, though the other boy didn't stir. He would have rather had someone with him, but if his twin wasn't going to awake, the boy decided he'd better catch up with her sister swiftly.
Leaving the den, he followed her trail and soon came across two wolves that he had never seen before. Oh no! Was he too late, was she in trouble? Well he wasn't going to get in any trouble himself, he'd just explain he was trying to get Cerise to come back to the den until their parents returned.
The older pair made him feel rather nervous as he ventured forwards to stand close to his sister. She may have been the smaller, though Sorrel felt as though he was standing before the two adults. One did resemble their family, her eyes bore the same mismatched yellow and blue that he and his siblings shared with their mother and Aunt. And like F?li and Novella, they were in the opposite eyes to he, Cerise and Symphony. Still, it didn't fuel him with much confidence, and it showed in the way he held himself and spoke. "I'm not doing anything wrong. Cerise was the one that left the den alone, I just wanted to bring her back." Suddenly his priorities were keeping himself safe, Cerise had already gotten herself into trouble, it was all her fault they were here.
