Blackfeather Woods devoted to destruction

A lot happened at once. The dark short pup seemed to be appeased once his brother showed submission and Cicero's attention was upon the girl. While the patchwork pup whisked away his feather and then went to bring it away to his hiding stash, Cicero watched him, the pebble the girl had given still under his paw. He did not notice the short pup's interest until he felt it peel at his paw to try and reach the pebble.

The girl followed with an instant objection of 'no', the first real world that he had heard the children say. Cicero just remained silent, watching the pair of them and curious to see which one of them would win this one.
