This weather was unlike anything the tiny wolf had experienced before, and she stumbled through the rain, fighting against the wind with her legs muddy up to the knee from struggling in the dirt and repeatedly falling. Snow storms she had weathered before, but this was nothing like that. This was wet, the cold beating its way through her fur and numbing her limbs, the mud sucking at her steps, the wind bowling her over. Null fought through it as best she could, keeping herself hunched and low to better force her way through the gale, trying unsuccessfully to grip her cloak closed from the inside. Her hood was wrenched from her head and streamed out behind her, mane wrenched back to whip in her wake.
Null had been hurrying along near the stables when the storm first began to hit, intending to find some form of shelter and take cover before the conditions got too wild to fight through comfortably. The plan had started out fine, but the storm had approached much faster than she had ever anticipated. Before she knew it, the tiny wolf was struggling against the winds with her grey cloak whipping about her and her face stinging with too-hard rain. She had heard some kind of crashing, but hadn't seen what had happened, being more concerned with finding her way to the ruins. It was only when she was nearer to the stables that she released what had happened, and she briefly considered using the undamaged part of the structure as shelter.
It was only when, with eyes squinted against the torrential rain, she saw the Boss rush from the stables with rope in hand and fury on her face that she resolved to brave the storm for just a little longer instead of simply fleeing inside. She followed after the blonde, hurrying as best she could in the insane conditions. Her hands and feet were numb, and she was probably trembling with cold, but she couldn't really tell. She called out once she was close enough to be heard over the storm.
Boss! What's going on?! D'you need help?! She yelled over the wind, trying to be heard over the roar of the wind and the rain. She was scared, there was no denying that, but there was no use cowering and running. If the Boss was out here then that ment something needed doing. It also ment that it was safe enough for the Boss to risk coming out here, which put Null somewhat at ease.
