Cricket Creek Bog thank you for your message but I don’t understand these, wont understand these things

Although she didn't anticipate the question, it was a logical one. Sugar pressed her tongue against the inside of her cheek as she tried to recollect whether Towhee had mentioned Elfie specifically. "He's probably still stuck in the grove with the rest of them," she eventually said, shooting Weejay an apologetic look. "She's the only one who escaped and she actually hurt herself worse trying to go back for the others..." That really wasn't any consolation, was it?

Weejay tried to return the focus to Towhee and Sugar bit her lip and shook her head. "Right now, she mostly just needs food. It takes energy to heal properl—" The full word didn't quite make it out of her because something abruptly distracted her: a flash of orange against the backdrop of white. Elfie?! Sugar thought wildly.

But it wasn't Weejay's brother. It wasn't even a wolf. "Is that a fox?" she stage whispered to her cousin.
