You calm the storms

Gideon could barely remember how things had been for him when he was as small as these pups were now. Memory was a tricky thing, and his came to him in bits and pieces. He sometimes wondered if there would be any ill effects on them from not being raised by their natural parent and from being fed the milk of goats and sheep, but such things hadn't done him too much harm when he had been around their age. He had grown up just fine with Aunt Bris and Conor there to take care of him.

It was just after noon, but outside of their cozy home the skies were dark. Lightning flashed across the sky in large forks, brightening the house for a few seconds at a time. This was the time of day that the pups normally napped, and the storm hadn't affected them in the least; Gideon lay stretched out along the length of the worn couch, both balls of fur tucked into the gray fur along his shoulder and stomach.

He watched the storm brew outside, occasionally looking back down to watch the young ones in their slumber. They would awaken soon enough and be just as energized as they had been the morning before. Probably hungry, too. At that thought he shifted his weight, rising slowly so as not to disturb them, and stepped gently down to the floor. He'd have to go and get some food out of the area that he normally stored it, the wide hole out behind the house. Gideon had made a kill the day before and had put it in the ground for safe-keeping.
