Barrow Fields Now you look at me like a stranger

Heldi's eyes snapped open as she picked up the scent, the one she believed to be Zephyr's, coming her way. Fearing that she might be mistaken, that he might be a pack wolf come to chase her off, the agouti took up an alert but not aggressive stance.

The male that appeared certainly looked like Zephyr. He was tall with ebony fur and white splashes on his chest and feet. The way he ran was the same, was it really him? 

A huge smile broke across her face as he spoke her name, knowing for a fact this was her former Alpha. She had been close friends with everyone as most of the pack had been, though she was lower in rank she had been close to all of the wolves including Zephyr. 

Heldi rushed him, tail wagging so hard it seemed it would detach from her rear. Happy whines tore from her throat as she sniffed him over, amber eyes warm with recognition. "Zephyr, it really is you! I thought the smell was the same but I wasn't sure. Does that mean Rana is actually here too? Are you guys the Alphas of this pack or subordinates?" The Vledfest's words were an excited tumble as she rushed to ask him all of it at once.
