(Wait, isn't it Gray who found them? Or am I wrong?)Rebel raced to the top of hill, scanning the forest, he spotted his siblings. "Summer! Faolen!" He cried, racing down to them. "Are you guys okay?"
Summer yelped with joy, rushing towards him. "Kind of!" She cried, licking his face. "But, Faolen is hurt! He broke a paw." he motioned toward her brother, who stood, blood caked around his paw, but a large smile on his face.
Chayton froze stiffly, a pang of grief and guilt surging through him. Why is she asking me? Oh wait, I know, she's has more guts than I do. He thought, heaving a sigh. Why had he not asked sooner? He loved her so very much, why was it so hard? Shouldn't he just say 'yes, I'll be your mate'? Why wasn't he saying it?!Once everyone was gone, Nikki looked at Chayton. "Chayton... will you.. be my mate?" She asked softly.
"I'll call you if anything happens," North said.
(sure!)
Senkah padded into her den, curling up on her soft mossy nest. The nippy draft that blew in through the lichen that draped over the entrance signaled the coming of a frost that night, and the dark clouds above promised at least sleet. Senkah shivered, and not just from the cold. Snow storms always brought back bad memories. She looked up longingly at the sky; the first hint of emotion that she had shown in moons. "Why?" She whispered, her voice barely audible.
Scarlet nodded, her eyes tired, but sparkling. She turned, and laid down, licking her sore, tired paws. then, a funny thought hit her. I'm helping other wolves have pups, when I haven't even had some of my own! She chuckled, her tail swishing lightly.
(Thanks!)
Nike's dark, muscular figure appeared at the entrance, a large, but skinny rabbit in his jaws. "Senkah." He greeted, his voice deep and loving, dipping his head. This was his typical greeting to her, knowing if he said or did anything more, she could become angry. He set the rabbit beside her, and then settled into his own nest. His dark brown eyes gazed out of the den, deep in thought.
