Hotaru

Hotaru sat outside of her house on the boulder, an ornamental wooden dagger that was only half finished resting in her paws. It was to be a present for Light, if Hotaru ever saw him again. It had been so long since their last meeting and between her failed attempts at hunting and the building of Cercatori d'Arte's first boat she felt like there was not time to even attempt to find Light's pack. Hotaru knew which pack he belonged to, but she did not know where it was. The blind female was positive that one of the pack members could tell her but she didn't want to drag them away from their work for her selfish desires.

Sighing, she ran her carving knife half-heartedly over the wood. Her heart wasn't really into the piece at the moment. What she really wanted was something to distract her from her thoughts of Light. But Fawkes was busy snaking on a dead mouse a block over, so he wasn't around for her to talk to. Hotaru turned the dagger over, and tried to think about the designs she had planned for it. But her thoughts on the dagger were once again interrupted by Light. Hotaru's ears twitched and her heart pounded, she was hearing things. Could that really be Light calling for her? Hotaru wasn't going to chance it.

She tore into the house and deposited her staff, carving tools, and half finished dagger. Hotaru crouched down and took several moments to shift into her fastest form. Although the process was seamless and painless, it still took many minutes to complete. The grey wolf did not often shift and was still getting used to the process of changing forms. With her bulky secui form completed she dashed out of the door and ran promptly into a bush. Hotaru had completely forgotten the stupid thing was there. This time she howled for Fawkes who immediately responded to her call.

Together the two of them raced to the boarder. Fawkes flew above, his massive wings beating the air and easily keeping up with his master. He would call down to Hotaru with directions while she raced through the woods. Her massive paws flying with an amazing speed across the ground and her bulky form barreling through any obstacles that she happened to meet. Her eagerness to see Light was getting the better of her and for once, Hotaru actually acted her age. Hotaru and Fawkes had planned their next meeting with Light and she was eager to execute her devilish plan.

To her, the time it took for Hotaru to reach Light was far too long. Despite how she tore through the woods, she felt like her speed wasn't fast enough. As Hotaru traveled along the paths to the boarder she only thought of the male. FInally his familiar scent flooded her nose and soon the blind wolf was over the boarders where Light stood. Fawkes had flown ahead and landed on Lights back, calling out to Hotaru before flying off to the safety of the trees. Longing for the male had caused her to be a little to excited and Hotaru flew towards Light slowing down just enough to make sure that if they did collide, neither of them would get hurt. Of course that was her intent, to run and jump at the strong male she had come to know and love.
