Haunted Wood Seek strength.... the rest shall follow.

Hela had allowed him to stay- Begrudgingly. He would need to work his ass off to prove his loyalty, however, and that currently meant he was on the border, making rounds. Not actively marking- that wasn't his right yet- but ensuring anything trying to get across the border that didn't have a right to be there was dead. 
A familiar scent hit him and he gave a chuckle.  The little female he had exchanged words with in the woods. Relief flooded him and strangely, he was grateful that it wasn't the entire pack that failed- Valour had simply been right about how shit of a wolf Black Hat was. 
He made his way towards her, a self satisfied smirk on his features as he stood before her. 
"Nice to know I'm not the only one who can't seem to find Black Hat. His mangy pelt has a lot of explaining to do." He spoke, announcing his presence. There was no bitterness in his voice, simply the light hearted ribbing common for old war buddies. 
"Kinda funny we run into each other again. You stalking me, sweetheart?"
