(381) Optime form. <3[/html]
Despite Cody's threats on telling someone about the incident, he never did. He explained once they got home that the scare she had was enough for her, and neither of them mentioned the event out loud since. But, there was a definite tension between the twins, especially when they started to shift. It was barely noticeable to the pack and even to themselves, but it was there nevertheless. It felt as if they felt less in unison. Cody was spending more time hunting for the pack and for his sister, and she herself was exploring the plants that grew near the den, identifying some of the familiar smells that were taught to her by their mother and Palaydrian.
Perhaps it was part of growing up, she supposed. Cody couldn't be her guide forever, right? They needed to split at some point, for each to have their own life. Noah's lessons helped with her being able to go about alone and she was proud that she was getting better, but yet, Lena didn't want them to suddenly fall out and have this distance between them. She thought about this as she sat cross legged among the plants, rubbing the petals of a flower that helped with fever. The sun was reaching the highest point in a cloudless sky, and she knew this because her eyes had started to bother her. Blindfolded, she sat and thought until she heard the howl.
She jerked up in surprise and wagged her tail furiously as she realized who the caller was. Grabbing a random stick long enough to prod the ground and smack trees she wouldn't see with, she jogged to where she heard him, long hair flowing smoothly behind her. When the trees began to part, she knew she was reaching the borders soon, and tossed the stick aside and walked the last few steps. The fresh scent of New Dawn hit her, as well the scent of her friend. She flashed a pearly grin and suddenly rushed up. If he allowed it, or if he was too caught off guard, she gave him a quick hug. Personal space wasn't in her dictionary. "It's great to see you again, Teme!" she stated loudly as she released him, her face still frozen in the wide smile.
