Sitting in her room Terra stared out the window. The stars glistened brightly in the cold, making everything seem closer. It was a sharp light, piercing through the shadows around them despite it being a new moon. Comfortable in her mattress Terra recalled the tales she'd been told, of wonder and mischief and dark nights. It was a perfect night for all of this, the animals tucked into their warm dens, avoiding the darkness of the night. It was a perfect time to share stories and talk together. She just needed to find someone to share the night with first.
Daintily she stepped out of the hole, as gracefully as any creature could hope to be. The light reflected in her eyes, turning the jade green a spiteful gold. Silent as the grave she slunk down the stairs, careful to not make any noise. Outside she sat, watching the sky. There was no movement, but it didn't matter. It was hers, a treasure to watch and hold. Leaning back her head Terra howled, an eery sound echoing her coyote ancestors. Only the length of it revealed her twin heritage. Content Terra waited, wondering if another would come to share the night.
