Up, up and away...

omg that's awful, when it rains it really pours D: glad the dog's ok though.. and hopefully the kids weren't too shaken up, eek.

She watched him abuse the tree further over her shoulder, insulting the injury all he wanted, with a vaguely interested smirk. His frustration was evident and Ame said nothing, more than content to let him get it out. Peeing on the tree was a nice extra touch and she laughed softly. It was important his scent be prevalent here upon the mountain, and its features as well. As reigning alpha, it was practically part of his job description.

Her tail waved slowly against her heels. Mm, suppose that would be wisest. It would make a good landmark to tell others to start from, and I do not mind passing the waterfall again. I like it, she exhaled, but such was true for much of this mountain. Amekaze was only peeved she had not come to explore it sooner. Instead she had always stayed near Gryfalcon's Keep and Silvertip, before its claim. This more inland range had hardly been touched by her before they had moved in.

So with that in mind and a quick nod, she adjusted her path accordingly and headed for the waterfall. Before long she could smell it, then hear the waters and she sped up to reach it before taking time to go a little slower when it was in sight. On the hot summer days, she had a feeling this would be a place to find her.. especially with the soft mist off the waterfall to consider.

This time, after a tail-waving look in Ferdie's direction, she took to a path leading up from there. The foliage was fairly thick in places, making it difficult for her to gain much speed, and then in another stretch of mountain the terrain underfoot was frustratingly uneven and dotted with rocks. She navigated it carefully until it straightened and she found what was probably a deer trail through the brush. Amekaze then kicked up her heels to a bouncy loping gait that invited Ferdie to overtake her, or press her to go faster, or whatever else he could come up with. He probably couldn't see the look of quiet mischief in her eyes, although she tried not to be obvious. Ferdie made her less stoic than usual, after all..
