Noctisardor Bypass Awaited Reunion.

Your writing is....awesome.

With everything happening, the thought of his adoptive daughter vanished to the back of his head, he vaguely noticed she was gone but did not really acknowledge the fact. So much was going on after all, you couldn't expect him to be aware of everything at once. But now, with everything finally settling down, he had the time to think, especially when he was on patrols. Their ranks were thinning and Shadow knew patrolling was a lot more important now, and so was hunting. Their caches were full from the previous reindeer hunt, but old meat could only last so long.

And the Roman was patrolling now, lost in his thoughts though he was still aware of his surroundings. Where was Leila? Why would she just leave without a warning? The world outside was dangerous, especially for someone with a lack of fighting experience. Sure, Shadow never saw the girl fight before but she seemed so delicate and fragile, seemed like anything could harm her. And to be honest, he found himself caring more about her each day, when she was at the Bypass.

A scent teased his nostrils, and he cocked his head wondering if it was a coincidence. Speak of the devil, he thought to himself, darkly amused by the fact that this happened a lot since he came back. His nose was proved once again right when the voice rang through the air, "Padre? Sha-dow?". Fierce silver eyes scanned the area in front of him as he moved towards the source of the voice and sure enough, Leila's exotic form came into view, drawing a large smile onto his lips, his usually weathered features lighting up. "Leila!" He whispered softly.
