The sun always rose again. Despite the darkness of the night and the cold of the night, the rays of the sun always managed to fight their way back into the sky. While the few clouds were tainted pink, an orange light shimmered along the flanks of the pale yearling. Igniting her coat with a golden glow.

Her eyes, also kissed by the gold of the rising sun, rested on the silhouette of a familiar female. With silent but quick steps she approached, keeping her ears pricked towards the girl she had decided would be her friend. She had known so since the time she met her at Tyrande's den.

"Good morning", she greeted while whipping her tail from one side to another.

When Cara first greeted her, she had not even remembered the rust kissed femme was now one of her subordinates. Becoming Alpha of the Ouroboros was so unexpected yet so gratifying. Since she had met Vectra, Cara had already decided she'd befriend the rusty girl, but when she recieved the title of Alpha Cara had decided to work on her relations with each and all of the pack members. There were some she didn't even know their names! That had to change, as well as her relation with Tyrande.

With Lecter nearing the cliffs of death, it was important that the witch stayed at the Spine. As much as she hated to do so, Cara would be willing to swallow her pride if it'd mean Tyrande would aid the pack with her knowledge.

But that was to be dealed with later. For now the new queen rested his eyes on Vectra, her adulating words pleased her ego and so the frost Alpha stretched her neck to press her nose affectionately against her new friend's ( because she had decided she was already a friend) forehead.

"I'm very well, how are you?", she asked. She was not worried anyone would give her trouble. If they did, she'd simply give them the boot.

Melancholy fell short when it came to describing Cara's feelings.
Seeing a star fall from the highest point of the sky and plummet into the ground was simply devastating. Her precious ruler was nothing more but a bag of rags and bone. But it was not the fact that she had died what had bothered the most --she already knew her queen would be consumed by the illness that had entered her bloodsteam.

No. What really bothered her, was that while she was still aware of her surroundings the yealing never approached to say goodbye. That had been like a jab to her spirit. Though now there was nothing she could do to remediate her flaw. All she could do is take the comfort and trust provided by the rusty female .

"The whole Ouroboros mourns, but smiles too", she whispered. She was convinced that her rise to power would lead to a good future for the Spine wolves.

In that instant, Cara realized she had hit the lottery.In the moment she had decided Vectra would join her as one of the cool kids she had not only won a friend but also a devoted support. She took in every one of her friends words, absorbing the sweetness of the rust girl's advice.

"Thank you Vectra" she whispered simply while briefly resting her chin on her subordinate's head. Then she pulled away from their friendly embrace and looked at her with a renewed spirit. That single sentence uttered from Vectra's mouth ad been better than an hour of therapy.

"Im glad you're here" she confessed, even if she wasn't usually interested on the newbies, she was happy that out of all the packs in the Teekon Wilds Vectra had joined the Ouroboros.

Purpose. That was a term she had used herself when describing the satisfaction the life among Jinx's ranks brought to her. A reason to breathe. That had been exactly what the snow queen annd her precious Ouroboros had gifted her with. And though she was not sure Vectra thought so strongly of that purpose she was glad the Spine had planted that seed in her heart.

She'd bloom into a beautiful and devoted member of the Ouroboros, Cara had no doubt of that. Now if every one of her subordinates showed such promise.. the fantasy that every single wolf in the ranks would stay put during the change of leadership was fading. She was sure some of the newbies she had yet to meet would most likely hit the road. Though in the girl's opinion it was probably for the best. While it would mean less helping hands she preferred a tight-knit pack than a whole tier of strangers.

"I have a good feeling about all this", she said suddenly, it was not to soothe the doubts that might've laid in her friend's head --not even her own. She really meant it. In her heart something told the frost queen that things would work out..

For the first time in her life, she had found a female who did not wake jealousy or envy in her heart. She had never had a female friend to be honest. Not even her sisters had occupied that spot, they had always treated her more like an enemy.

Since then she had never gotten along with any other females, in her eyes they were competition --because after all that was she had been taught.

But that was different with Vectra. It seemed that the rust girl --and of course Jinx-- had been the only exception. When around them she did not feel the need to prove herself better, she felt strangely at ease.

Cara glanced again at her friend, feeling like in her she had found the perfect companion. She'd be the treasure chest Cara stored all her riches in.
