Swiftcurrent Creek not so secret agent

♥

It was true the little red blob was not yet accustomed with the world around her, she had about as much sense of perception as a nut. Maybe she had missed Bazi completely while she was busy trampling the poor sprout at the mouth of the den, but she had not failed to recognize her sister's body approaching in between tumbles.

At the time of Jökull's fall, Maera's ears rotated like little radars on her cranium, pointing at her sister. She took a step forward and allowed her vocal cords to call out to her sister, half wanting to make sure she was alright and half asking for her to come and help her solve the mystery. But her silver kissed sister had something else written across her face: fear.

The sole sight of seeing the oldest and boldest of the quartet almost shivering with fear was enough to make the smaller girl wail in terror. Fear was contagious and whatever had scared Jökull so much had to be utterly terrifying. With her heart thumping loudly against her chest and a tear threatening to come out, Maera threw herself at her sister's side.

The girl had not yet realized the whole ruckus was because of Bazi, she was faithfully convinced a monster was towering over their little home. If she had turned to take a look herself, her reaction would be completely different. She would've ran towards the white Beta rather than from her --though Bazi's next action prevented her from running any further.

The horrid fart sound that was emitted caused Maera's ears to prick again. Her eyes finally met Bazi's figure and all trace of worry was thrown out and replaced with a filling sense of relief. Her tail rose again and began to pound against her sister's side as a happy squeal erupted from her mouth.
"HAAA!" It was funny how a child could go from such opposite emotions in a matter of seconds.
