Stone Circle We survived the Famine!

Arlette let her ears fall back submissively when Greyback told her that she was allowed to follow him. She was grateful for her father to allow her guidance. She trotted to his side when her eye caught Kaito. He was here! Perhaps he would want to hunt with her, and then she wouldn't take up space at her father's side. She wanted to step towards him, however, he seemed to move very far away from her. Arlette's heart dropped in her chest. Of course, he wouldn't want to hunt with her! How stupid of her to think that... She bit her lip trying not to focus on how stupid she felt.

Arlette rushed to catch up with Greyback. As she was at his side she noticed how close they were to the beasts. The female let out a whine in fear. She watched how Greyback nipped and tried to bite the beasts. Arlette wanted to freeze in fear when one almost got her father. She hated this, her heart hammering in her throat. Arlette just stayed with him, only trying to snarl and growl at the beast. She was not ready to bite them. She automatically slowed with her father when he needed to catch his breath. She watched her mother, and West side by side. Her mother then instructed them to bite and attack. She looked at her father, clearly not comfortable with her mother's command. Arlette looked at him pleadingly when she saw a dark shape slowing down. "Mama!," she breathed.

Arlette felt her confidence grow. "I will check on mama!," she called out to her father and made a U-turn. Thank god. Her worst nightmare was to get trampled under a bison and was glad to get some space between her and that thing. She tried to look for her mother but fora moment it was just all snow. Then her mother sat up and Arlette quickly went to her. "Mama," she breathed, it was like she wasn't even seeing her. However, as her mother's pants were quieting, she seemed to be doing better. Arlette nosed through her fur. "It's okay mama, take it easy." It looked like she wasn't hurting, just very tired.
