I can hear the sound of violins

Sunset over the lake was beautiful. Colibri was transfixed by the shimmering colors, the flat stretch of red and gold water stretching off into the distance. There were still wonders in this world that took her breath away, and for that, she would always be grateful... They were things that could distract her from her petty problems, let her escape from herself if only for a short while. Without really thinking about it, the slim werewolf rose to her paws and began to walk along the lake's edge.

Rabbit Lake was partly claimed by Crimson Dreams, but the body of water stretched past their border into the unclaimed fields where she found herself meandering. It hadn't been much of a conscious decision to leave, but once the familiar scents were behind her, it was as though a small weight had been lifted from her shoulders. There was no need to worry out here, no need to let anxiety rule her waking hours, no need to mull endlessly on the series of mistakes she had made. The neutral territories were becoming more and more appealing, lawless places where she would not be recognized or cared about.

The threat of Haku was always lingering in the back of her mind, but the lake was a calm presence at her back, proof that she was not too far should she find herself in trouble. A small spark of rebellion made her set her jaw firmly, silently willing for trouble to come, to see what she would do this time. Her tail stub stirred behind her as her gaze swept the hillocks, watching the shadows lengthen as the sun sank even lower. It was so quiet out here... Even her sensitive ears could only catch the sounds of crows retreating to their nests, and a small warren of rabbits rustling nearby in the grass. Coli sighed, simultaneously disappointed and relieved. It was going to be another long night.
