Dawnlark Plains Silver brothers

Sebastian was frantically looking for River but the smoke made it tough. The heat made him want to close this eyes. Then something bumped against his leg. He looked down, other animals were fleeing as well, so it wouldn't surprise him to have any other animal hit him with the thickness of the smoke. But Sebastian soon saw that it was River. "River!!," he croaked. He moved his muzzle down and licked over the top of his head. He heard his name and was surprised as it was the first time he heard the pup speak. "Shh. I'm here. I'm here. Try to save your oxygen," he spoke and then crouched lower to cover him from the heat.

Sebastian looked over his shoulder where the fire was. "We need to move," he urged. He nudged the boy as he took one step. "Stay low to the ground," Sebastian added and started to move a bit, seeing if River would follow.
