Escape from Alcatraz

Baby on the loose! Open for anyone interested in meeting the "princess"

It was time again for their daily nap, but Potema was not interested in sleeping. Her brothers were, as always, but after their playtime, The girl was still full of energy. She was ready to pounce on something, but not her brothers or her mother. The black-furred brother was especially grumpy and not afraid to bite if she annoyed him too much. The mixed color one was too erratic to put any kind of description on his actions, so she simply left him alone to save her the trouble. Her mother wasn't much of a playful person, and her father was no where to be seen, so she was bored.

The princess, as her father called her, crawled her way from under her mother's protective paw and towards the brightness from outside, where all the fun was. The voices had a play in encouraging her to escape the warmth of her mother to the coldness of the world above. The whispers were becoming more prominent as she understood more and more words, though as of right now they were simply ideas rather than statements. And constantly, they told her to go to the whiteness.

And after long moments of crawling her way up the slope towards the entrance, she beheld the coldness of the outdoors once again, though the white wolf was no where to be seen. Temporarily independent, the girl started waddling to an interesting object in the distance: a red berry, shriveled from the cold of winter and fall, yet still holding fast to its bush. This was her first experience with the color, and it held fast to her attention. Squeaking softly, the only female of Meldresi's litter walked towards the potentially dangerous berry, without a care in the word.

Crescendo blinked open his eyes, still weary from his nap. The first thing he saw was something small and white walking toward a bush. Rabbit, he though, and bolted up, ready to do some killing. It was with disappointment when he saw it was only a mere pup. Meldresi would kill if the pup was harmed. Crescendo stalked closer, then moved to sit in front of the fluffy white thing.

"Shouldn't you be with your mother?" he asked gently. he had no idea how to deal with children, he hoped he wouldn't frighten it.

The girl was frightened when she saw a large black wolf heading towards her, but not because she thought she was going to die or get hurt. No, she was scared because she thought that her mother had caught her and was ready to drag her back home. But on further inspection of the wolf's eyes, the size and even the voice, she knew that it was not her mother at all. It wasn't even female.

The large, mother-colored, father-eyed wolf spoke gently to her, but she did not understand any of the words at all. Instead, she spoke the only words she knew, which in actuality were nothing but babbles, half-words. "Pwin? Ma?"
