Redhawk Caldera go slow

Elwood had seen less and less of Finley over the last week; their meetings had been few and far between, and when they were in each other's company, it was usually brief and heated. On one occasion, she had assured him that nothing was wrong and that her feelings for him hadn't changed, so he forced himself to put his worries in the back of his mind. He chalked her strange behavior up to the beautiful weather and her wandering ways; she just needed to get out and stretch her legs a bit, right?

While Finley was gallivanting outside the territory, he continued his duties within. He was moving across the lower reaches of the caldera with a plump hare clasped in his jaws. A pale figure ahead and to his right caught his attention, and with a quick flare of his nostrils he identified Tiger, Finley's sister. Immediately, he changed course and padded towards her, his tail giving a friendly wave as he greeted her around the mouthful of fur.

Speaking proved to be difficult, so when he was close enough, he dropped the rabbit and gave her a proper hello. "How's it going, sis in law?" he said with a grin.
