Moonspear Wipe-Out

She wasn't sure how her explanation had been taken, not without seeing the girls' face. She laughed a little at the excitment of the child, the insistance that she could find a father for her pups. If only it were so easy. She grinned and nodded her head. "One day, yes. I will find a Daddy for my children, but, I am happy to know that they at least have an Aunt." She felt Korei edging closer, saw her face in the corner of her vision. Her eyes flicked over to her curiously and the question made her smile again.

"Of course, Korei." She understood the girl's meaning though, and struggled with a way to answer. "It's a different type of friend, though, that a mommy and a daddy have to be. We need lots of friends when we decide to have pups. Your mommy and daddy have a whole pack full, to keep you safe and protected." Thankfully the conversation seemed to shift as they arrived, and she let the girl clamber from her back.

She had a sudden vision of her informing her parents that she would be the Aunt to Pyx's children, and almost started to say something to remind the girl that there wouldn't be pups for a while. She did not want Amekaze or Charon getting the wrong idea. She didn't get the chance to, though, because Charon was quick to arrive and notice his daughter's limp. His tone was demanding, but he didn't seem to care who answered. 

"Korei managed to preform a wonderful spin on some ice. A rock happened to be in her way, and she hurt her paw. Nothing broken, and she's had some raspberry leaves to help the pain. I carried her to avoid hurting her further. Shouldn't take longer than a few days to be back to normal. You should be proud, though. She's a very brave little girl." Pyx beamed at Korei, her eyes sparkling.
