Alpine Lake Do you remember your first party?

Someone came by. It sent her guard hairs to stand upon her pelt, straight and furious at the stranger coming near... as he dipped to take a drink she only calmed a little, stopping her own flickering tongue to stare at him with wide, almost disdainful eyes... scrutinizing him and how bold he was to approach even for something so innocent.

Lifting her head from the water, she took a sniff at the air... catching his scent but nothing else, no indications of others with whom he belonged to. He was like her a month ago... alone, wandering, unsure of one's own future and what it held. But still, she glared... that perpetual hate for anyone who wasn't familiar to her burned in her chest and forced a growl.
