I Gave You All

The sun was out, shining down across Serpent Plains. The grasses seemed to dance in the soft Spring breeze as he lay on top of the den and gazed out at his pack lands. A soft sigh shuttered out through his lips, head resting on his white legs. He was having a very rare moment of peace, although he was sure that one of his children was going to come and ruin it pretty soon. It was nice while it lasted though, tail sweeping across the flat stone. He was glad that the harsh winter was gone, and that prey was slowly returning to Abaven. Rabbit hopped through the tall grass, his golden eyes locking in on one now. Maybe he should teach the pups to hunt soon, and how to avoid the snakes that made this plain their home. There were a lot of snakes that posed no danger, but some had bites that held poison as well. But it brought a lot of good prey with it as well. Well, it looks like he was going to end his own moment of peace.

Standing up and stretching out his limbs, Bass raised his head and called for Lark. His dark down son seemed to be different from the rest, a bit more drawn apart from the rest. He had been trying to spend a lot of time with his kids one on one, and today was Lark's turn. Leaping from the top of the den to the earth, toes curling into the dirt as he stretched out his body and prepared for some hunt training.
