Slow it Down

Oh, the world was so wide and new to the young boy. Hardly, he knew where to start with his adventures that he craved. As soon as he had opened his eyes, the Adravendi had been venturing around the den, tumbling over his sleepy siblings, being the only baby awake amongst a pile of puppies. His maiden was the wolf he most resembled, and there was a certain connection between him and her. Every time she left, the young boy would yelp and whine: "Mommy! Don't go!"; and he would attempt to come with her, but she had always told him to stay, so he would. Each day she left to find food to regurgitate for her children, the boy would wait absently, lonesome and quiet unlike his siblings, who had engaged in wrestling matches and bickered about who was mommy's favorite. Each day he would wait for her to return, his heart beating faster than a rabbit as horrid thoughts would reel through his tiny mind. 'What if she never comes back? What if she gets eaten? What if a wolf hurt her?' Every time she would come back, she would be greeted by eternal cuddles by her masked son until she left again?but today, she wasn't leaving without him.

All of the pups were tucked in the den, including the young Adravendi, who had feigned sleep, making innocent little snoring sounds and breathing slowly. The maiden was fleeing in their midst of snores and quiet whines, in search of a meal for him and his siblings to share with their mother. It would likely be their first meal fully of meat, having been weaned from their mother's milk. As soon as her noise would disappear, the young child sprung into action, slowly creeping around the general vicinity of his siblings, careful not to awaken any of them. If he did, his mistake would bring their maiden back, no doubt. The pearly pelted child scampered out of the den, white light blinding his jaded gems for a moment as he tumbled over a heap of snow. A huff escaped his tiny muzzle as his ears flopped downward, cold biting at his veldt ears already. He enjoyed being outside, but his goal was set. 'To find mommy!' Righteous thoughts rolled through his mind as he pulled himself up, shaking frosty snow from his short pelt and marching away, beating the ground with oversized paws.

Her russet masked face was visible, as well as her form. The young Adravendi gave a small yelp of joy within his mind, picking up his pace, but in his attempts at stealth, he failed miserably. The young boy had forgotten how mis-proportioned he was as a puppy with a pudgy puppy body. Right over his oversized paws he tumbled, rolling toward his mother for a few feet before he fell flat on his belly, the cold gnawing at his sensitive stomach. At the clamor that he had created, his mother whirled about, rubies shimmering. "Raziel! Silly boy, you are supposed to be sleeping." His obsidian mask would tip upward at his mother, coldness forgotten and replaced by a toothy grin of playfulness, before he would rise to his reclining post, giving a gentle whine, his vocals feeble. "I missed you Mommy. I didn't want you to leave without me again. You leave every day without me, and I just get really lonely without you." The young boy gave another whine before he would inch toward his mother, nuzzling her legs gently, as she spoke again, his obsidian audits relishing the sound of her voice. "Very well, would you like to come with me? I'm going to try and find something to eat." The only reply his mother would get was a happy yip and a playful bat of his paws at her stilts, tumbling to his side once more. His paws splayed out wildly as he flailed to get up again, his tail wagging in excitement to be the puppy who refused to sleep to go on a big adventure with his mommy.
