When the call went out, it instantly roused the Confidant out of her sleep. She gasped at the news that came along with Sirius’ call; how had intruders got in? She thought the traps she and Denver now routinely set would have been enough, but apparently not. She also felt immense guilt… this was her job to protect the pack, and she had let them down. But there were multiple intruders… hopefully Sirius would not be too disappointed in her. Maggie wouldn’t be able to handle her pack being disappointed in their vendettas.
Adrenaline shot through her body as she raced to wake up both herself and her horse who was asleep outside. She made sure he was conscious before hopping on his back, kicking him into an uneasy (she was still not used to riding) gallop towards Denver’s residence.
Luckily the wolfdog’s home wasn’t too far, and as his familiar home approached she let out a piercing howl to get the man’s attention. She jumped off Jasper’s back in a hurry, ran inside, screamed, Denver! Get up! Sirius needs us! she shook him as hard as she could to get him up. Soon enough, Denver awoke and followed her out of the house. It’ll be quicker to get the borders this way, she said, motioning to the horse. Without waiting for a response, she pulled her partner onto Jasper’s back, and kicked the horse right into another gallop.
She urged the horse on, and with her heart racing, got to the borders as quickly as possible. During the last leg of the trip she had followed her leader’s scent, panic rising in her throat. The group appeared through the morning glow after what felt like forever. Some of her packmates were already there which made her feel a little better. She dismounted quickly, pulling off the chain around her throat that had Foxglove’s dagger on it. She let out a menacing snarl, brandishing her dagger towards the enemies. She stayed close to Denver, closing in on her prey…. A dark-furred creature that was the closest threat to her. Despite being in her two-legged form, the girl lunged with her knife, intending to inflict as much pain as possible.
