Heron Lake Plateau First storm

Writing this in a hurry on my phone, so sorry it’s kinda rushed and sucks lol. I just didn’t want to miss out on the chance at a Wifi thread!

Raven hadn’t missed her sister’s call, but of course as luck would have it, she was all the way on the opposite side of the territory when the howl went up. It took her some time to make her way toward Wildfire, her heart thrumming in anticipation of seeing her sibling. While she had a close relationship with all of her younger siblings, there was a special sort of bond with Wildfire because this was her only remaining littermate. They’d shared a womb together. Time and distance didn’t really diminish that connection, at least not for Raven.

She’d been meaning to get out there forever to catch up with her sister, but the timing always seemed to be off. There was stuff going on here, there was stuff going on there...with her newly-resumed position as alpha, she had so much on her plate now that it was even more difficult for her to get away. She hated it, knowing that Wifi probably felt jilted or ignored, but what could she do? She didn’t want to send a messenger just to tell Wildfire she didn’t have time to visit. How lame would that be?

The path she took across the territory took her right through the vicinity of the homesite she shared with Quixote, and it was there that Wifi’s scent became particularly strong. Phox’s scent was equally as prominent, and she assumed that their younger brother had met the visiting alpha at the borders and escorted her inland in search of Raven. A few minutes of following her nose led her straight to her autumn-coated sister, Phox having apparently just departed only moments before.

A wide smile broke over her dark face at the sight of Wifi, and Raven’s tail began to wave at lightning speed. Panting slightly from the run here, she approached with gladness in her step. ”Hey! Sorry, I was all the way out on the other side of this damned plateau. God, it’s good to see you!”
