Redhawk Caldera Back at base, bugs in the software

Aside from the pups, now his primary focus, Eljay didn't even notice anyone else missing in the blur of the moment. Eljay stayed close to Peter in particular, but tried to herd the other pups wherever he could. Luckily other adults took care of them and eventually all of them arrived safely inside the cavern. Eljay didn't remember the storm at all, as he'd been very little at the time, but there was something reminiscent about being inside the cave, huddled together and just waiting it all out, nevertheless. "It'll be okay," he whispered softly at Peter and Gannet — and Whip and Bandit if they needed it, but in general so far they'd been less easily frightened — and stayed close to the pups, to ease both their unease as well as his own, while he waited out the bugstorm.
