She could have laid there all day happily sleeping away another rainy day. After all she had spent yesterday watching her mother and father play with plants. Each one was different, in looks, smells, and colors. She was amazed by it all but not one word was spoken from her. She was a silent learner. She knew these plants were important, to not touch them, and she remained out of the way as she watched them be laid out to dry and stored up high enough out of her reach in the den. One day she would know everything about every plant out there. But all that watching and trying to puzzle everything together was tiring. So this morning she would be sleeping loudly next to her siblings.

But it wouldn't last. It would only take a few moments to notice the absence of warmth next to her. She would frown and whine softly, paws trying to reach out for her brother who had slept next to her. But paws would find nothing but empty air. Eyes flickered open, searching for Laoch, where had her brother gone? Rolling to her paws she looked around before heading out into the rain. It was cold, refreshing and for a moment she let it soak her, eyes closed. A yelp in the distance made her jump, mud splashing into her white fur. She crouched down, heart hammering in fear. That was Laoch! She whined softly before growling to herself. Her brother could be in trouble!

Somehow she found the courage to move and seek out her brother. But she couldn't find his scent in this rain. Panic was making her fret as she paced about, sprinting from on end of the little clearing she knew of to the other side. Her breath was getting short and she collapsed in the far side of the clearing, silently crying. Where was Laoch? Why was she so weak? Why was she crying? She had long ago gained the habit of crying silently from her early days of colic. So if one didn't see here, they would never know she laid out in the rain afraid for her brother who seemingly disappeared.
