Solo Patrol

Walk | Talk | Think

Green eyes bright and alert, Bera walked purposefully through the Serpent Plains on stubby pup legs with her tail raised and waving behind her. It was weird living here, but in all the best ways. For once she was not being belittled for being a girl! For once she was expected to carry her weight just as much as the boys, though most of the boys that she had been introduced to were all older than her and capable of doing much more than she could with her lack of proper training. But even that was changing. She and her sisters were being instructed on how to take care of themselves, and Bera ate it all up willingly. For once she felt useful, felt respected, and she was adjusting quickly.

Her large paws carried her along the path that Thor had already defined for them, the boundary that he had chosen for their new home. Not a pack, nothing like what she had come from, but she assumed it still worked the same. Or at least as much as she was able to remember, being restricted to only a certain part of it before. The brown, ear-less girl doubted anything exciting would happen - with the elder males checking this place even as she did she was sure they would have scared anyone and everyone off first - but it still felt good to walk in their steps, to carry herself proudly and mightily, as if she too could scare off the invisible foes who threatened them. Her jaw set, Bera marched on at a trot, ever watchful and hoping she could return to her home with good news of a successful solo patrol.
