Things were strange now that everything that he had come to known was left in ruins. How strange it was that he had flown so quickly to lead Storm, only now to watch it succumb to flames of change. And how strange it was to fall so passionately in love, to do the one thing that brought them so close, and now to be left alone in despair. How strange it was to have discovered his brother, only to loose sight of his whereabouts during the fire. How strange that he was left alone with no familiar faces to look upon.
But now, a glimmer of hope appeared. A beacon on the wind. A familiar voice. It was Tayui, the alpha of Jaded Shadows. Her words made Pilot frown for a moment, only to perk up his interest. A new pack that needed members. With such a request as that, he figured other wolves from the old lands were bound to show up. This glimmer of hope was all he needed. Without so much as a hesitation, he sought out his old friend.
Sure, things were going to be different now, but perhaps all of this would be for the better. His world had crashed in a matter of days, but maybe this fire could be taken as a sign. He would talk to Tayui about it sometime and ask her about her journey to the new lands. That was, after he found her.
He switched to two legs, for his four paws were starting to kill him. Rubbing his hands together, Pilot slowly ventured towards the familiar face. He could see her now, just in the distance, and only hoped that her stories wouldn’t be as disheartening as his.
