A cool breeze, a hot heart

Helotes found himself in a sparse forest on an incline, the trek was difficult and he moved slowly, all his senses trained on any form of canine activity. Beside some old scat and markings there was not much here, and nothing that pointed to Zana. He could already feel his heart and interest dropping and he started thinking that he was a fool for having tried looking for her in the first place. With a sigh, Helotes sat down and propped himself up against a tree for a breather, panting lightly in the now warming morning air.

His dark, satellite dish like ears flicked and spun despite his eyes being nearly closed; he knew it was important to keep his wits about him, especially in the territory outside of Inferni. In fact, this is the first time he had been outside the borders in a long, long time, and he had to admit he was just a bit on edge.

Suddenly, a strange yet subdued rustling caught his ear and he became immediately alert, opened his umber eyes wide and looking in the direction of the sound, becoming still as a stone. His nose twitched as he sifted through each smell that came to him; one stood out amongst the others; blood. Helotes fur stood on end; he was being hunted. He quickly unstrapped the spear from his back and his ears shot back against his skull nervously as his usually grinning face twisted into a snarl; he let forth a threatening growl, Come out. He demanded. Somewhere in that brush was someone considering his death, and he was not going to die now.
