Silvertip Mountain Children running from their school

Fox out! I like that they ended things amiably, even though it was totes unexpected. :B

Jinx often told convincing lies, but this was not one of them. If Jinx thought nobody would follow her, she would not be leaving the creek at all. Unless, of course, she was on some kind of death mission. Fox was also unconvinced that Njal, Tuwawi, and Haunter would leave her. Haunter had basically sworn himself to her, Njal disliked Jinx on some level, and Tuwawi was tied to Njal. Bones was a tossup, but Fox would be less hurt if she left compared to the other three named. The girl was younger and newer, not yet tied down in the ways that the others were.

Fox dipped her head in acceptance of Jinx's order, gave her a small smile, and then turned toward the creek. This would be yet another rift in the neverending thing that was leading a pack, but the yearling did not worry. Jinx leaving (and taking her friends and family with her) did not seem odd or unexpected. The Kesuk was a big fish in a little pond, and she needed to stretch her fins. It would mean that there would be less wolves to the amount of land, and while that could be a problem if they grew too thin in numbers, Fox did not think that would happen. She was decidedly optimistic as she trotted back home.
