Isokan was official now, and that meant that he would no longer be part of Abaven. But though he had gone with Quelt to ensure it to be made the calico returned to the borders of their former pack for a very important reason. The calico would be leaving someone endlessly precious here, someone beautiful in both her looks and spirit. Nona, his adoptive daughter. She had rekindled, truly, the fire of hope in his heart. Allen walked on now with a smile, his dark forest green eyes shining with more life than they had in quite some time. He felt a good deal of happiness. It had happened. Their promise to Hajime had come through... And Allen would now stand with Quelt with unwavering loyalty.
But he wouldn?t leave without saying farewell to Nona. Farewell, he reminded himself. Not goodbye. Goodbye was for those you would not see again, and Allen refused to believe he wouldn?t see her again. The calico would stop at the borders and tilt his head back, his deeper howl rising into the sky calling for her. This was a time to celebrate, he felt, and he did not want this to be over quickly. No... He wanted to enjoy the rest of the day with her before he made the journey back to North.
But no sooner had he howled, however, did the rain begin. Large droplets falling to the earth, slow but sure to pick up as time moved on. It would dampen his mood slightly, but not enough to throw him completely off. A little rain couldn?t hurt.
