Bramblepoint And promise me this, you'll wait for me only.

teya took off the last hours of a patrol in the caldera. they were almost ready to move. so far she hadn't seen caracal or killdeer again, and chose to take that as a sign that they would either stay out in the world or find their parents. she wasn't sure what brecheliant might do if the redhawk wolves tried to retake their territory, but she would find it stupid to begin and continue a conflict.
the snow was blowing harshly. teya went out into it anyway, chasing the scent of a pine marten. but she stopped at once when a low call poured through the white woodland. 
she knew that voice, and its sound startled her enough to remain still.
and then teya was running. but her paws did not know this world well enough; she tripped and sprawled with a curse.
her gaze slowly traveled upward. breath caught in her throat.
"sundance?"
the wind tore the sound from her mouth and tried to shatter it.
