Venom poked her nose over the ledge of the ravine, she wasn’t as confident here as she was within the ravine. Lilac eyes surveyed her surroundings as she crept up and over the side. There may have been an adult watching her but she was without her siblings. Her quills raised in her nervous venturing and her forked tongue slipped from between her lips in similar fashion. Her ears perked to catch the strange sounds around her. She felt odd with how quiet it was, her life so far had the sound of the stream as background noise.

There were a few birds singing or calling out alarms in the trees. Not that she had any chance of catching a bird. Gloved paws carried her forward slowly, she heard something about a beach and a huge amount of water. She was warned to keep away from water, but she still had to see it. Venom walked in the direction she thought it was, cautious about all the new things she was seeing and smelling as she went.

Hannibal was making his rounds per usual. He had already checked up on both his eldest and youngest offspring as well as patrolling, checking up on food stores, scenting, and catching up with passing pack members. After he was done with all that he was ready to head towards the palace to check up on his nieces and nephews, as well as his darling Empress. But, before he could do anything a specific scent found it's way into his two toned nose. The scent belonged to one of Belle's spawn and there wasn't any other scent mingled with it. Meaning the pup was likely on it's own. Hannibal wasn't use to seeing the little ones venture out so far so he decided to check up on her as any good Uncle would. The male found himself behind the piebald pup and a tiny smile slipped across his lips. He followed behind her quietly, as if stalking prey, but he wanted to give her a good spook. Thus, as she stooped for a moment to take a sniff of something he spoke with a loud, assertive, and booming voice. "Who goes there?" speech

She was perfectly content with her explorations, there were plenty of smells and sights she was eager to discover and explore. The young she wolf tipped her nose up and took in the foreigns scents, her tiny body lifting up on delicate cats toes. She was even wearing an amused grin as her forked tongue slipped from her lips. Venom wouldn't have jumped if she knew uncle Hanni was behind her. She knew her uncle well and enjoyed chewing on him within the confines of the palace.

This time though, his huge booming voice took her by complete surprise and the white gloved pup let out a terrified squeak as she fumbled and backtracked away from her cruel uncle. "Uncle Hanni!" The young girl chastised him as she recovered and realized what he had done.
