It wasn't formally his job to keep up with his pack's food sources, but as a more highly-ranked member of Crimson Dreams as of late, he felt the need to take on more responsibility, Just to match his newfound status. Although, honestly, status was something he'd never even expected to gain. Still, he was happy to take care of a small duty and scout around the lovely place, his senses alert for edible creatures large and small. The reserve was so close to his pack's territory that it really was no expense to him. He had only passed through the area on other ventures, without really exploring it; this felt like a good opportunity to do that, also.     The boy paused, his ears twitching into an erect position as the sound of rustling underbrush caught their attention. He gazed into the jaded sunlight, his soft eyes finding the dark form of another wolf. There was something familiar about the way she was moving, and another whiff of the clean summer air told him why. Kansas completely forgot about his task and the careful silence it required, rushing noisily through the trees until he was standing before his sister. Ember, he said with a smile, his tail wagging at his heels. He refrained from jumping all over her and showering her with kisses, even though he really, really wanted to. It had been so long since he'd seen her. Too long.
