Broken Antler Fen Teach Me

Odie's tail gave a little excited wag as Sebastian came into view.  Soon though Uncle Seb started to speak and Odette watched him curiously as he spoke.  She smiled at his praise for her howl, but found herself wondering why he had been looking for her.  Had sometime happened that he needed to tell her?  Had she done something wrong?  Odette didn't push that topic any further, because she was actually a little nervous to find out what Uncle Seb had to tell her.

Instead Odie asked her own question.

"Uncle Seb... do you think you could...."  Odette trailed off nervous, a little unsure of if she really wanted to learn this know, beause it did scare her to think that she might have to defend herself someday.  Life was life though.  Unpredictable and always changing.  "Do you think that you could teach me how to fight and hunt?"  She finally asked, then looked up at her father figure with bright and hopeful eyes.
