Redhawk Caldera Under the tree, at the top of the hill

@Lagan :))

Why and where father had gone, Ben didn't know. Mother seemed to be gone too. Mato had been gone for a while and his other siblings, well... he didn't see them often. All he had was Bunnybutt and GrammyMallie. They were fun and all, but every now and then they got together just to be sad, it seemed. The siblings of the Caldera didn't seem very fond of his quiet shyness but at least he had raced with some before. What else was there for him in this world? Every day was the same and he was getting more and more anxious to get up and explore far beyond their borders.

But, today was not that day. No, today he came home with a plump rabbit betwixt his teeth - glowing blue eyes shining proudly. He wasn't the best hunter but when he did catch something it was the best feeling in the world. He usually quietly left his prizes near the caches so no one would find out it was him bringing some snack in. He didn't cope well with compliments or praise anymore. He was a stranger to friends and now even to family. Anyway, he was so hungry when he came back that he couldn't help but start eating right away when he came to the indoor pool they somehow held in their bowl of cereal. There he lay, peacefully eating his meal, deafened by the sound of water.
