An Exploration Gone Wrong

*Zisa* · 02-07-2015, 03:37 PM

Zisa was getting very annoyed with the rain that was soaking her fur and making her shiver.

Her violet eyes closed whenever the rain landed in them, her small head shaking in irritation and a soft growl escaping her jaws. After a moment, she saw something that would hopefully hide her from the rain making her fur much darker than it usually was. A soft sigh escaping her, Zisa ran forwards, mud splashing her fur and staining her white paws a dull shade of brown, with hints of her real fur color. After a moment, she came closer to the cave, trying to halt, but her paws slid on a mud puddle and sent her crashing into the ground. Her fur caked with mud, even her dark ears, Zisa struggled to get inside the caves. Rain made streaks of her fur color until she managed to get into the dry, and mainly warm, cave. Glancing at the entrance, the tiny pup began to move away, choosing cave after cave going into tunnels and probably getting herself lost. Fear clawed at her as she moved forward, unable to see anything. There was probably beasts that would pounce on a little pup like herself and she'd be gone and Rune would be mad at someone and Freyr would blame himself and-. Zisa shook her head, interrupting her own thoughts. No big monsters were going to take her away where she never saw the light of day again and only saw her family when they died. Nope, that wasn't going to happen to Zisa, not if she managed to fight. Stopping, the filthy wolf pup glanced back, only seeing darkness. Then a crazy thought popped into her mind. What if monsters were afraid of wolves and only tried to attack them out of fear? The thought made Zisa crack up, a high pitched giggle echoing through the caves. Trying to keep herself calm, she spoke to herself. Monsters won't hurt me. They won't come out of the darkness and drag me away. I'll get out of here, because my family won't just leave me behind. My family isn't like that. They would hurt those monsters.

The words calmed her down, making the tiny pup sigh in relief. Yes, her family would come for her, because it was just like them. When a scream went through the caves, Zisa froze, her violet eyes wide with fear. Zisa, calm down. That scream wasn't a wolf getting attacked by a monster. Maybe it was just the wind. Maybe it was a wolf getting scared. Wait, scared by what? Trying to calm herself down hadn't worked all that well, and her violet eyes closed as she curled up into a small ball. The monster that had stolen that wolf was going to come for her, too. She just knew it, and she would never get out of these caves because of the monster. A soft whimper came from her as she imagined it, it's head cracking and going awkwardly sideways as it moved towards her, revealing three rows of sharp teeth. And red eyes that glowed in the dark, and a tail that had a sharp end and could poison whatever it stabbed, and claws made out of rock. Zisa moved out of the cave, a quiet growl escaping her as she ran in any direction that wasn't a dead end; she didn't know which way she had headed. If that monster wanted to attack her, it would have to find her first. Opening her jaws, Zisa yelped out a few words, her voice echoing through the tunnels and too loud for her. Hey, you ugly monster! If you want to hurt me, you'll have to catch me first! With that, she took off.

It wasn't long before she ran into another wolf. A monster that could look like a normal wolf, maybe? Zisa wasn't convinced, and glared at the 'monster'. Of course, she hadn't noticed the wolf skull near the older wolf. Get away from me. I know what you are, you ugly monster. Taking the form of some wolf. That doesn't fool me. Zisa was too young to know that monsters weren't real.
