Though they had settled in nicely and the place was beginning to feel like home Firefly didn't know exactly how she felt about everything. There was still a dark cloud looming overhead and she didn't like the scent of the storm that was brewing. The girl had patrolled the border and was just taking a jog across the shore, her eyes scanning the waving coastline as she found herself coming up onto the more dangerous section of land they owned.
The sands ended at the base of solid cliffs, her eyes scanning the line as the edge of the rock grew steeper and steeper. She wasn't for certain just how strong the curents were about the cliffs but she wasn't about to find out today. The choppy water was warning enough and though she was reckless and dangerous she did enjoy her life too much to toss it away.
Instead she just took a deep breath and began to climb up the short end of the steep hillside and move in along the edge of the cliffs, the winds buffering her body as she stared out to sea every once in a while between watching to make certain she still had footing down below. She didn't mind the heights or the lonely cliffs, they were just a reminder of the soul to her.. haunting in a way. She stopped for a moment and crouched down in the sandy grasses to watch the rains as they cast down from the clouds across the ocean. They would come in time, but for now they were safe.
