Echo whimpers softly from his hiding place

Foxy perks up and follows the sound of whimpers coming from the large bush next to the den.

Winter smiles, nuzzling against Aspen. "We should probably head back. I think I heard Smokey and Snow howl."


Valerie looks slightly confused. "Who?"

"Pack members. The alpha and possibly his girlfriend. We should get back to the new den. C'mon!!"

Winter smiles and nods. "Let's head back, Val you'll have to grab hold of my tail. I know you can't see well in the dark"


Valerie nods and gently grabs hold of Winters tail, who's already started back toward the den.

"You might have been there before! I would always visit when I was still in the old pack! Come on!" She gently grabs one of Winter's ears and starts leading them back following the claw markings.

Winter lets out a soft gasp when Aspen grabs her ear, which quickly twitches out of Aspen's grasp. "n-not my ear p-lease." Her fur around her muzzle becomes a deep red.


Valerie lets out a muffled laugh.

Foxy yawns. "Has anyone other than me heard whimpers and noises coming from this bush?"

"Oh! I'm so sorry- why not? What's-" She looks around. "You'd best grab hold of my tail then."

"My ears are.... they're sensitive. " She sighs softly. "I should be fine though. I can see pretty well at night. Val can't see in the dark."

Smokey, finally at the den, lays down and looks at Foxy "I just got here so, no?"
