Fire and Rain

Me, Raina, and Cypress are running. Past pine to where Oak meets Maple. We run together like this a lot now. Raina starts sniffing. I fallow her a bit. Then I smell it too. The smell of something humanoid-made. Medal, and rust. Just a hint of it. I take the lead now, and Raina falls back beside Cypress. What we come across is beautiful. I wanted a place to store tents, and other supplies, and I think I found it. We shift to human. It’s a green house.

“Can’t believe I never found this place before. I ran ever inch of my- our territory.” She says.

“Kind of in the middle of nowhere.” Cypress says. I nod in agreement. I take a photo sending it to Jordan. He’s hanging out with Leo, Cheryl, V, and Ross right now.

Look what we managed to track down - Charlotte

Very cool - Jordan

We explore. We’ll have to bring in stuff, furnishings, and things. There’s no glass on the floor. Blown away, or buried. The wind, and Earth sure is good at the that.

“Raina?” I say. Because it feels like time, and an Alpha trusts her instincts. “You’ve been kind enough to make your territory ours.” She, and Cypress walks over to me. “I’d like to have you as a member of my pack.” I tell her.

“Really?” She asks.

“If you’re alright with me being Alpha.” She lowers her eyes submissively for the first time.

“I didn’t think I wanted a pack. But these last few weeks-“ She trails off. “Anyway let’s hunt something.” We shift wolf, and we’re off.
