Horizon Ridge chasing the sun · pack meeting

Pump did not have set routine for her days - no getting ups in the mornings or going to sleep in the evenings - her active hours mixed with the cherished sleeping hours in patterns, which differed from day to day. Therefore, when Akhlut's howl reached her, she was busy chewing on a dead sea lion's hide, which she had brought back from the shores. Since the weather was not exactly warm or cold, it did not rot away too quickly, but it still smelt very bad.

She was reluctant to leave her meal behind, but alpha's call was something she was not allowed to miss. That she knew from her days at home and that she respected here - at her new home. Therefore - after casting a quick glance around - she finally dug a shallow hole and hid her meal there. She went so far to put a scent mark on the mound, in case someone came here and wanted to claim her food as his/hers own.

And then she ran to the meeting place, being neither the first, nor the last to join the group of wolves that had gathered there already.
