Returning Shepherd

since nobody else seems interested! <33


The day was only just beginning and the agouti male had risen. It was natural for him to rise before dawn and head out to the river before his morning run, but today he'd woken up just a bit earlier than normal. Siku had been gone for only a few days and he'd been trying to track her down. He wasnt making any headway and he was beginning to give up. He wasnt going to find her and she wasnt going to come back. It made sense though- she'd been absent for the past few weeks and he'd barely seen her at all. It was sad and he felt a tug at his heart when he thought of her, but perhaps it was for the best. She wasnt happy here and he could see that as she withdrew more and more in on herself. Still, it was also difficult to know that she hadnt stopped long enough to say goodbye or tell him where she was going. So he'd given up the search and begun to get on with the routine he'd worked around his day.


He moved away from Cerne Rise, glancing back once to make sure everything was safe and secure. He had become just a little paranoid since Wretch's attack and he'd made sure that the apartment complex was secure whenever he left, even if the rest of the household would be in and out all day. He moved swiftly towards the ranch, hoping to let the horses out before Adonia rose and give her a surprise when she came to check on the animals. The morning sun was just beginning to break at an angle over the mountains when a peculiar sight caught his eye. In a corner of the paddock that wasnt usually use, five large shaggy animals were laying down. In between them, was Tawny. With a brush. Confusion crossed the males face as he descended towards them, trying to figure out if he'd ever seen these creatures before. Coming to the conclusion that they were alien to him, he came to a stop outside the fence.


"Good morning Tawny... you have some strange creatures in the paddock..."


He stated, chuckling softly as he leaned against the fence, long and thickly muscles body stretching out asa he got a good eyefull of the animals Tawny had bought home. She was definitely going to have to explain what they were, for he had no clue.
