It had been a few days since Orion had thought about his family, slowly the pain of missing them was fading into the back of his mind. He knew that moving on was part of life, but someday he hoped to see them again. Since he arrived at the new pack Orion hadn't gone far from the manor only spending a little bit of time exploring the rest of the building. He chose to shut himself up in his room for hours a time just mulling things over. He felt restless, he needed to get outside and stretch his legs.
The cold air felt good on his face, it was refreshing, reminding Orion of the way he would spend hours out just exploring and hunting, the things he always loved to do. He decided to head southwest from the manor, down towards rabbit lake. The thought of hunting again gave Orion energy he wanted to show the new pack that he could provide for them. The ground was starting to soften up now that spring had arrived his paws became muddy as he got closer to the water with all rain that had been falling with the melting snow. The cold had never bothered Orion but he wasn’t sure how much prey would also be out in this temperature.
It didn’t take long at all for Orion to spot a rabbit beside a tree just sitting looking peaceful. He circled slowly around behind where the rabbit was looking, stalking from tree to tree waiting a few seconds before making each step. He was careful not to step on any twigs that might break and cause sound, he was ten meters away, the dark gray beast lowered his body to the ground. It was over in a matter of seconds, Orion had pounced and caught the rabbit between his teeth before it had even had time to react and turn to see the hunter coming for it. Orion didn’t mess around with his prey he killed it instantly not wanting to cause the rabbit any pain in death.
Feeling elated on his first big kill Orion decided that he would take the rabbit back to the manor to share with the pack. He had taken a few steps back towards the manor when he heard something a few hundred meters away. Orion had not met anyone but Savina so far, he was frightened that possibly some of the other members of the pack weren’t as friendly as she was. He headed toward the noise to see who it might be.
