Redtail Rise Paper Boats

Junior was an outrider, Arion knew, after all she had told him personally that she held an outrider and warrior trade. Therefore, when she left, he had presumed that she had gone exploring or had taken a short trip. She had the heart of a traveler, and wanderlust surely tugged at her gut like it had in his own. Days passed without her return, her scent growing fainter and fainter on Redtail Rise's lands, and then the stallion began to worry. He sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't place his paw on it.

Arion was about to head off to search for her himself when Saena informed both he and Reek that they were in charge while she searched for her sister. It had been an honor that she had chosen him and he patrolled and hunted as diligently as ever, but their leader did not return. Three days had passed since her departure and the indigo eyed female was still absent from home. Once again, worry and restlessness plagued his mind. The same question went round and round his head as he patrolled and did his duties, what happened?

They were packmates, and though he had known them only for a short time, they were soon becoming the Acheron's family. Bound not by blood, but by friendship and loyalty. Arion was known to be a heartless bastard who cared not for anyone. He kept that facade on, speaking formally to other wolves he encountered and only let the mask down when he was talking to his friend and temporary leader Reek. The pack mattered a lot to Saena, he knew, and she would never be away for too long, that meant something was keeping her away. And it probably wasn't good.

His mind wandered as he hunted and after several escaped prey, Arion gave up and began to search for his friend, it wasn't long before he spotted the ragged wolf patrolling and quickly, he moved forward and trotted next to him. "Still no sign of Saena or Junior?" he asked in a worried tone, but even before Reek answered, he knew the answer. "There's something wrong with this whole situation," he murmured to his friend, "Do you have any clue?"
