~Is There Life Out There?~

The male pup would heave a slight sigh until he heard Dayton speak. He had talked about making a pack of his own, and the other words that the russet male had told him gave him a bit of a startled and surprised demeanor. The only sound was his breathing, the thumping of his heart, and the wind whistling off into the distance. The young ebony brute was speechless. Did this male really mean what he said? With the slight tilt of his head, Aeolus began to think of his answer.

His parents had told him to stay away from other wolves unless it is an emergency. He was alone, and how could he fend for himself without someone to help him? He did know how to hunt a little due to him being taught before his parents were killed by the epidemic. His double colored optics shimmered slightly with life.

"Do you really mean it?" Aeolus would ask, his eyes looking into the russets eyes. When he was sure that Dayton was telling the truth, he looked to the sky, and then back to the older male and smiled, nodding his head. He would let Dayton raise him if he meant what he had told him.
