Lake Rodney I will still be your big brother

<3

As much as she loved Sebastian and as little as she wanted to part ways with him, knowing he wouldn't be at the caldera when she got home, his anxious comments only made Wildfire feel even worse about this situation. She would not be able to rely on howls to root out her aunt; she would have to physically check every designated location. It was a daunting task but she was up to it. She just didn't need any extra negativity or stress.

"How about we split up? We can cover more ground. If you find her, tell her we're all looking for her and to get back to the caldera as soon as she can." Wildfire moved closer to the tank of a wolf, rising onto her tiptoes to give his cheek a kiss. "Thanks for your help, Seb. I'll see you soon, right? Goodbye... bro." It sounded so weird coming from her mouth but she smiled, her amber eyes crinkling.

Her face then fell slack as she turned and loped in the opposite direction, determined to find Finley or, at the very least, some clue about her whereabouts.
