Redhawk Caldera Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates

Rain kept the family indoors this morning. Wildfire slumped near the door, sulking as she stared outdoors at the crummy weather. She desperately wanted to go outside and add some more sticks and rocks to her collection. She didn't even mind the wet. But her parents told her no and so she brooded there in the doorway, unaware that her eyelids eventually grew heavy and then closed.

When she started awake an hour later, the shower had tapered off to a drizzle. Wildfire jumped to her feet with a loud bark that made everyone else in the den jump. "Wawawawawa!" she proclaimed loudly, dancing on her toes. Her golden eyes grew wide as she looked pleadingly from Peregrine to @Fox then back to her father again. "Hiyeeeee?" She was desperate to get outside, not only to collect some items for her stockpile but because she had to go potty!
