There it was. Or, there it had been. That brief ounce of confidence to lift his head and send the call. He was close. So close. And then he heard the voice...
Just as quickly as it had come, it had gone. Kéknu froze in an instant, heart racing. Was it possible to have a false heart attack? Screw it. He was having one.
From where he once stood, the dark wolf skidded hastily, feet scratching against the earth as his frame disappeared within the helm of a nearby bush. No longer was he standing. No. The body had completely coiled itself tightly, eyes squeezed shut with no intention of opening.
He hadn't even bothered to take a glance towards who had called to him, if even the call was meant for him at all. Why did it matter? In this moment and every moment after, all he cared for was fending for his life — if this even was a life or death situation, which it most likely wasn't. This was Kéknu's way. He had survived thus far, hadn't he?
The rain is my only true friend; for it conceals my tears and drowns out my innumerable wails of sorrow and agony.
