Together Again (TORTUGA)

Two brown ears would stand at attention as a clear call rang through the winter air. It obviously belonged to Qanik, and this was perhaps the only reason Dayton felt motivated to answer it. He had fallen into a deep depression lately, not bothering to take part in any activities besides those he owed the members of the pack. He hunted efficiently, as always, but spent the rest of this time lying in his den. It was disappointing, really, to witness the flame of his spirit slowly dwindling away. He truly didn't know what to do anymore. It was one thing to not know what love meant, and live without it in blissful ignorance. But it was another thing altogether to have loved and lost, and feel the crushing grief during every waking moment. Dayton let out a frustrated huff, disrupting the thin layer of snow that had gathered around his face. Then he pushed his slim figure from the ground and shook out his pelt before jumping into a casual lope toward to lake. That was where the meeting would be held. His weight was nothing in comparison to the large slabs of ice that covered the frozen lake, and the brute padded across it easily. His amber eyes were cast down as he approached, only lifting to address his leaders and pay them due respect. Misha was near, he could feel her scent wrapping about him. That knowledge only caused his stomach and heart to clench. It was painful to stay here. Maybe he would have to leave to escape the pain. Just maybe. The russet boy was silent as a few voices entered the air, and he stared blankly at his paws as he awaited the reason for this meeting. |
