Swiftcurrent Creek Closing in

It's rare that the sprite isn't shadowing Helios, but of course, it hadn't lasted very long. He's following his brother's trail now, nose low to the ground as he hurries through the territory, and he's certain he's close by the strengthening scent. Then another scent hits him — foreign, unwelcome — and he freezes for a moment. Overwhelmed by a strange, heated feeling he cannot name, he starts again at a run without another thought, following the scents until his brother comes into view — along with a strange pup. A stranger. Snarling as fiercely as he can manage, he bolts toward the girl, aiming to fling himself against her and hopefully knock her to the ground. He doesn't really have a plan for afterward, but he's very certain that this is the only appropriate course of action.
