Spotted Eagle Mountain where the wind blows

Where have you been? Have you seen Phiipa? In her mind, Vi is already scolding the other girl. It's in her nature to boss and hen-peck, though she normally restrains herself to her sisters. High emotions were about the only thing that could get her bossing strangers, not that she considered Kenai to be that. She was a cub of the pack, and therefore partly Vi's responsibility, and therefore perfectly eligible for a bit of scolding. (At least, that was what her current state was telling her.)

But when Vi drew near enough to say these things, it became clear that the girl was having just as horrible a time as she was, if not worse.

"Are you alright?" she asked, all anger leaving her as she saw the state of the poor girl. She'd ask about Phiipa later.
