fired his rifle into the sky

As she stole away from him, the hybrid again contemplated what she was doing. She knew little about the Anathema wolves, but they had been good to her -- Naniko had offered food openly, and she had been invited to their midst as if it were nothing that she still smelled faintly of Inferni. The gleaming skulls greeted her, silently laughing in her face. The urge to strike one down and smash it was supressed; there was enough bad blood between her and her mother, and this would just provoke her.

The mansion was quiet, and the sable-colored woman was glad for this. She did not want to face Halo or even Cotl -- it was better for her to simply leave quietly. Her room was still, and for a moment the hybrid feared Itzcitla had taken leave to hunt. She called for him quietly, and he emerged from the piled blankets on the bed, appearing sleepy and annoyed. He mewled faint annoyance as she busied herself around the room, clearing it of anything that could be useful with mechanical ease. There was not a whole lot to take, and she had everything piled into one blanket in a moment, wrapping it in a tight bundle.

She turned on Itzcitla and wrapped him in the blanket as well, much to his annoyance. The cat struggled, but she quieted him with a harsh word, pointing to the window. “We're going outside, stupid. You'll be cold,” she hissed. He was still, then, and she picked him up, grunting with the effort. At thirty pounds, he wasn't light, and the sable-shaded woman shifted him, tucking him half under one arm. The cat's paws instinctively gripped at her shoulder, and she picked up the second bundle, tucking it under her arm and wrapping it near to Itzcitla. She left quickly, taking no time to so much as glance behind her, and returned to him.
