Blackfoot Forest a boy like me

@Orochi - set sometime at night, being vague on the Toad/Kukulkan thread <3
55 degrees, rainy.

Since meeting the aggressive boy in the field, Hide had wanted to find some kind of shelter, at least for a while. Besides, it was constantly drizzling right now, and the trees would help break that up so they could keep a little dryer. 

The only problem was, the rain dispersed smells and made it more difficult to navigate. That wouldn't be much of a problem when he had Orochi, but, well, Hide had woken in the middle of the night and needed to pee. So, he did what any gentleman would do and exited the shelter they'd found, headed off to a respectful distance before he did what he needed and relieved himself against some bushes. 

But then the sounds started. 

Unearthly sounds that called to each other, back and forth, in the pitch blackness. Well, it was probably only pitch blackness for Hide, but that didn't make the red wolf feel any better. He staggered backward when one sounded far too close for his liking and ended up tumbling back into a bramble bush. Hide yelped and struggled, embedding them more deeply into his fluffy fur, but he didn't care. If he were being honest, he might have been panicking a little. 

In a totally cool, manly way, of course. Real men panicked when they heard weird sounds in the night. It would've been weird if he hadn't freaked out. At least, that's what Hide was going to say, if he ever got out of these thorns.
