Blackfeather Woods dark magic

Trying to practise his sneaking, Cicero had followed his mother. However, he wasn't very good at it: he had soon lost interest and had found other interesting things to play with, which had caused him to be lost. The only thing he could do (well, he supposed he could turn tail and go back to the den, but that wouldn't be much fun) was wiggle his nose around on the ground until he caught his mother's scent trail, which he then followed.

Cicero did not smell the other female yet, and so when he saw his mother's form in the distance, the child burst through the woods and drew up beside her with an excited "Sees-roh-roh go ma!" When he noticed the other wolf, Cicero halted in his tracks and stared at the other wolf. His ears were comically turned to the sides of his head while he stayed in indecision. There was silence for a moment before Cicero burst into a long, drawn-out symphony of, "Sees-roh hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii-iii!", that did not end until the boy ran out of breath.
