Brace for Bad Luck [Ebony's Storm]
09-12-2014, 08:30 AM
Kassander had been sleeping fitfully as the storm built, but his sister's nearby voice dragged him into awareness. He blinked his eyes open and dragged himself to his feet, brain fogged yet and he wondered what had prompted the urgent summons. The mist cleared very suddenly as a bolt of lightning struck the ground a good distance away, but close enough for the ionization to frizz every hair on the auburn boy's body. A clap of thunder followed shortly to deafen him, and Kassander bolted away. He arrived at his sister's location with ringing ears and fur fuzzed out in a halo around his form. "Val!" he gasped. "Are you all right?" Now that he was well awake and far from the scene of his near-zapping, his brain kicked on and began ticking over the things they'd need to do. The pack didn't have any pups - the next-youngest to him and Val was Callisto and she was almost two - but there were a lot of new people who might not have gotten secure dens yet, and if it was a bad enough storm some of those dens that were made could flood out. Wolves could get hurt... his own near miss was proof enough of that... plus if it lasted long enough the wet weather could lower the immune system and then they'd have respiratory illnesses... any flooding could contaminate their water supply and cause stomach ills... he'd need to make sure he had as much of his stockpile of herbs as he could get. Maybe they'd need to bring everyone to a central location to shelter together... But undoubtedly Val as the alpha would already have a plan and it would be better to see what she wanted done before running off like a panicked idiot."What do you want to do, Val?" he shouted over the rising wind. |
