Sorry if it's a bit rambling

The sun hung low in the sky, it had only just begun it's lazy ascent into the sky, painting the clouds with hues of rose and gold as it did so; though it did little to dispel the Autumnal chill that clung in the air, all around the remaining blades of grass were dripping with dew. All around the air was filled with the dawn chorus, birds chirruping to one another in their gleeful awakening. The day seemed pleasant so far, but the clouds and the icy breeze that was blowing through the lands promised rain might have been on the way later on. All around pine trees bent and swayed as the wind buffeted them, though so many of them were bent over and broken, some even snapped in two, evidence that the hurricane hadn't spared the reserve from it's harsh ministrations. Even the lake had pieces of broken branches floating in it. Through all of this the sable female walked, stepping across the borders where New Dawn met the reserve, her long legs making short work of the distance from where she stood to the lake. She was in her Luperci form this morning, her new chest scars incredibly evident in this form; they ran from her right shoulder, right across her chest, finally finishing at the base of her ribs on her left hand side, four parallel scars in formation rows; the result of a fight with a bear, the wounds themselves had been nothing to worry about, only scratches in her flesh, unfortunately they had gotten infected and almost killed her, had they not then she probably would not have found herself with the scars. Still this morning was not a time to dwell upon this, it had been a good day so far, as usual the sable female had risen before the dawn, awaking when the sky was dark and there was still a chill in the air. She had managed her chores and was now taking some time for herself, she enjoyed exploring and wanted to know what had changed in the months that she had been gone.

As she approached the lake the birdsong stopped, clearly they had seen her and did not want to advertise their positions to a potential hunter. But the sable female had no interest in hunting birds this morning, having already sated herself on some rabbits she had caught the previous day, no this was simply a time to stroll and enjoy the day. Although the nagging worry that Deuce had gone missing was preying on her mind, where was her mate? Had she assumed that Soran was never coming back and left? Was it all the ebony pelted lady's fault that her alabaster lover was missing? Despite knowing how flighty her lover could be, disappearing for long periods of time, just as she herself did, but somehow she could not help but worry, where was the snowy furred female? Why had she left? Oh how the dark female missed her, she felt like she was missing a limb, a leaden weight where her heart had been. She could not shake the worry though, the nagging feeling that this might have been all her fault. With a deep breath she shook the thought from her mind, actually shaking her head as she did so, causing her mane and the feathers that adorned it to flutter in the breeze. Slowly she made her way to the lakeside and knelt beside it, cupping her hands together and scooping handfuls of water from the lake, lapping it up, smiling slightly as she did so, this morning perhaps would be a good one indeed.
