How Much There Is To Learn

Walk | Talk | Think

She sneaked away at the first moment she could, light hunter's paws carrying her quietly away from her family's new densite and out beyond the territory that was to be their new home. She was not up to anything bad, nor did she have any intention of getting herself caught up in things that her parents would have disapproved of, but still she felt as if she needed to be more cautious around them, particularly when she wanted to leave their sides.

Everything had gone so horribly after meeting Pyrros. He had seemed like a decent wolf when they had met, a little odd with his particular taste in humor but nothing she needed to worry about.

Never before had her naivety and innocence been a problem until now, and now after everything that had happened it felt quite embarrassing. She was supposed to be this great, skilled hunter, someone who could be dependable in a pack and carry her own weight, but how dependable could she be if she could be so easily taken in? With a huff, the young grey and gold wolf allowed her legs to give out beneath her, depositing her amid the cool, cushioning grasses that grew at the top of a rise in the Knolls.
