It wouldn't take too long for Novella to appear and it seemed from her question and confused look that she may have heard Aslan's shout. Fortunately a quick idea came to mind, he wouldn't have to worry her about cougars or anything. "Yeah." He reassured her with a brief nod of his head. "I saw something moving and thought it might have been Regulus's little cat friend. I don't think it was though, whatever it was seems to have ran away." Of course what he had seen was a lot bigger than Cinders but he was telling the truth, it had been a cat and it had ran away. Hopefully all was explained to a satisfactory amount.
"Are you heading home too?" He questioned, moving the topic carefully away from felines and instead to an offer to walk back together. He would have done so from the start had he known his mother was heading back though truth be told he was glad for his little head start.
