Memories

Haku was proud of his new pack. A new family, a new rank and most importantly, he got to be with Aria. Oh sweet Aria. When he looked into her sweet eyes, he was whisked away into thoughts about her. He shook his head clearing his thoughts. He found himself in a warm, humid spring. There were pools surrounding him. Steam emerged from the hot water supplied by geysers below. He saw a shape in the distance. Warily, he got closer. Soft pawsteps supported by his thick, white winter coat. Eventually the wolf came into shape. Haku padded forward his heart almost bursting.

Hello Aria.

He kept his distance, with great difficulty, as she was a higher ranking wolf. She was chin high in the spring and she looked thoughtful and distressed. Are you okay? What was wrong with his dear Aria?
