Neela let out a sigh of relief when the puppy whimpered; at least the child was alive. Neela shifted her grip so that she had a hand free and started making her way carefully along the rocks, crouching low and moving almost as if she was in Lupus form to keep her balance. "Don’t worry, I'm gonna get ya back ta land." she muttered down to the puppy, keeping her voice purposely calm so she didn;t distress the pup any more than he was already upset. Despite her calm voice her heart was beating a mile a minute as she tried to keep her balance on the precarious perches created by the rocks, a task made all the more difficult by the waves pounding against her back, both knocking her with the impacts and coating the rocks in a fresh layer of slippery water.
Eventually, after cutting her hand open several times more on sharp pieces of rock as she supported herself heavily to keep the puppy away from the rock, Neela had made it back to the shore. She was vaugely aware that she was now trespassing in pack territory but chose to ignore that fact in favour of making sure that the child was okay. "Hey, ya okay?" she asked, loosening her grip to lay the yellow puppy down into her lap, stroking one hand down his spine while she spoke, "You okay little guy?" she asked him, never pausing in the gentle rythm of ehr hand running down his spine over and over again.
