Lion Head Mesa I don't want to leave

It seemed her light hearted joke didn't help her first comment. 

"I'm sure you would." The youngster proclaiming she'd do anything for Skyshire was sweet. 
"But like you said, loners can be dangerous, and despite our best efforts we've been chased off a few times." She remembered the child's own story, her own loner mother. 

"Misty," And she glued her brown eye and blue eye to the veritable teenager, "If you ever wanted to start a family, you'd be stuck out here. And pregnant females aren't usually welcome on pack borders either. Since you're such a great hunter, and you're at the perfect age to learn the ways of a new pack without much trouble, it'd be hard for a pack to turn you away. And just because they like the dark trees, doesn't mean they're a bunch of meanies either, eh? How many times have I showed you how to hide in the dark? It's useful and defensive."

Sky herself certainly wasn't ready for pack life. Though the time for the kid find a real family was coming soon, she could see that. To be honest, it would probably be a little easier to travel for Skyshire without having to worry about little legs anymore. Not that she didn't appreciate the company at all.
