Lost Creek Hollow ishi comes home

The white prince had made his way over, very low and in silence. His body gently leant against the gamma's, she silently winced at the contact. Scars were still healing as blood had finally come to an end. She looked at him with a gentle gaze before sweeping his muzzle with a comforting lick. She was relieved to know her family was put together again, but the news about the cougar coming back brought her morale down. But what broke her heart the most was Harlyn stating news of their pack: it was broken.

They would have to flee the hollow, for their numbers had dropped and keeping their claim wasn't safe anymore. The children would be at risk, so would the others. The path would be unknown for them, and Harlyn asked that the two would stay, for they were family. Shikoba looked over with her scarred eyes and gave Harlyn a sad smile.

"Shikoba stay with pack. Pack is family. Shikoba protect family, protect brothers and sisters, protect small ones" she replied to her, seeing the small children with Harlyn.

Her direct statement was that the two were to stay close with Harlyn, near her den so they could be treated. And then they would move.

She held her tongue at an idea though, something she wished to vent out. She wanted to bring the numbers back in and hopefully be able to sweep out the cougar, once and for all. The silvery hell cat needed to be put in its place, underground.
