WC: 1077 Any and all welcome. Set in Shiloh Hills... on the 6th if that's ok? Also her avvie's a little old, she's actually 6 months old now, just so you know Smile

It was the late morning, the lush green grass blew gently in the winds that carressed the lands, the sun was climbing steadily in the sky, soon it would reach it's apex and then the full heat of the summer time noon would take over, the sun beating down on the ground mercilessly. Although at least today there was more cloud cover, there being more fluffy white clouds covering the sky today, their fluffy presence at least would ease some of the heat from the bright shining orb that would soon be high overhead. The birds had taken flight this day, taking to the skies, most of them had anyway, they were all small silhouettes in the sky, their wings and general shape being obvious, but that was just it. If they were doing their usual activity of calling to one another, sending cheerful twittering, tweeting messages to one another then it could not be heard from the ground. Small animals were creeping in the grass, nibbling on the leaves of the bright flowers that pinpricked the green lush ground, they consisted of small rabbits and mice mostly, passing about their day quietly and mostly unnoticed, hiding from sight in the long grass, ever alert to any dangers that might be approaching.

Through all of this bounced a little patchwork ball of fluff, scattering small animals, she was not trying to catch any of them, in fact she was chasing a small purple butterfly that was flittering across the lands. She wanted to catch it and take it back to Felicity, she knew that she liked all things girly and would more than likely enjoy having the small creature as a new pet. Robin wanted to do something nice for her, after all she was her sister, and she loved her, even if she was such a silly girl, Robin much preffered spending time with her brother Linden, he would happily play adventure games with her and clamber up rocks and jump into water with her, he was much more fun, much happier to play rough and tumble games with her, to play fight and generally rough house. She was not a girly creature at all, her idol being Robin Hood, the human male that she had read about in the books that were stored in the house. He was such an exciting man, he had been all over the place, fighting for good, he had stolen from the rich, evil opressors and given the money to the poor, he had had a bow and arrow and a band of Merry Men who went everywhere with him. It was her favourite game, she loved playing at being Robin Hood, but Linden did not seem to like it when she made him be Little John or Will Scarlett, often arguments would be caused over both of them wanting to be the hero of whatever story they were playing out. She usually won though, mostly because she could keep arguing until Linden had lost interest and was just willing to go along with whatever she said. Afterall they were usually her ideas, the plots for their games, so it was most unfair if he tried to be the hero, that was her job, if he did it again she decided that she would let Felicity be one of the Merry Men and make him the damsel in distress that they were going to rescue, yes that would teach him a lesson for sure. But for now the task at hand was to catch this butterfly. She would get it, and she would take it home to Felicity and then maybe she would join in the game more happily, without persuasion.

She was in her Lupus form today, having decided that she was still better at walking in this form, she had been practicing in her new found bipedal form but it was awkward. So the little patchwork girl had decided that she could run better on four legs, she wasn't wobbly in this form, the chances were that she wouldn't fall down like she had been doing so often in the past few days as she ran about in her Optime form. The little female had left the lands, she knew that it probably wasn't the best idea but she was still close to home, it wouldn't take her long to run back if she really needed to, also she was close enough that if she shouted really loudly then someone would probably come and help her out, especially her daddy, he would come and rescue if she needed it, he would come galloping in on his great big horse and save her. Just like she would do one day when someone called for help, she would come in and rescue them, just like she had been practicing in her pretend games, she would be a brave and noble just like her father, she would be a brave protector just like him, one day they would be an amazing duo, brave wolves fighting for justice and everything that was right. She could not wait for that day, just as soon as she grew up, that would be what the pair did, she was sure of it. Having spent all this time lost in thought, the patchwork girl had lost the butterfly, she sat down, her brow and her chocolate coloured nose wrinkling in annoyance, they were pesky creatures, butterflies, too quick to escape. The girl sat down her brow still furrowed. She scratched an ear that was a sandy brown with a deep brown tip with her little grey back foot, wandering back off into deep thought, what was she going to do now? Where could she find another butterfly as pretty as that one to catch and take home? She couldn't go back without one and disappoint Felicity, although then again as it was going to be a surprise present then perhaps she wouldn't mind all so much after all, but Robin would know and she would feel guilty, knowing that she had failed her first proper quest, to hunt her sister a butterfly that she could keep as a new friend. There was of course the matter of how she was going to get it back to Cours Des Miracles without crushing it by accident, or losing it, but the patchwork girl's thought process had not gotten that far, she had been too focused on the chase.
