The female had heard the cry even from her home in Thornbury, it was so loud. Startled by the almost urgency in the voice - it wasn't quite that urgent, not yet, but it seemed to be bordering on it - she had rushed out of her house and ambled towards the section of the border where it came from. She didn't need clothes - it wasn't cold anymore, now that winter and spring were ending - so only her wiry and lean frame was visible, rather than the clothes she adorned as a child.
She skidded to a halt when she saw what was at her borders - two females on horses; one was barely conscious, and the other wasn't even conscious at all. They both had grievous wounds that were hard for Skye to look at; once she got over the shock of how hurt they both were, she noticed simultaneously their scent and the feathers that adorned their hair - AniWaya.
She noticed one that she hadn't before - a brown wolf, female, and also from AniWaya from the scent that she had on her body. She didn't seem to be hurt like the other two were, although she was by no means strong and completely healthy, either. Skye was slightly bewildered by the sight at first, but then calmed down and began to think logically - first, finding out what they were and why they were here.
"Who are you?" she asked, a bit sharper than intended. "How did you get hurt?" She felt sympathy for these people, who were weak and hurt, but her undying loyalty to her pack came first - she had to know if they were being followed, or if they had come alone, without the ones that had hurt them so.
