they say it's better to bury your sadness.

Zana knew she had misjudged her abrupt appearance as the dominant stance of the Aquila towered over her. Her thistle hued orbs shifted back and forth between the two as Gabriel gave her the command to stand down. She slowly let her hand drop, still holding the weapon in her clawed fingers as she eyed the lady with interest at the fact that Gabriel didn't want her dead, yet. She frowned and glanced back to the doogish male as she wanted confirmation that this woman was not the enemy, even though everything about the way he was acting was telling her different.

The young Lykoi finally gave a sigh and settled in to find out what was going on, eyeballing the woman as she seemed to be doing the exact same. The lack of an eye reminded her of Jefferson but she didn't bring that up, seeing how the pack she once resided in seemed to bring anger and agitation to their leader, but she couldn't help but find things in the woman of others she knew. She looked from Gabriel to the woman as that golden flame of an eye watched her, realizing that they were the same as her uncle's. Unsure if she should ask or not she let one ear flick back, showing her unease at everything that was going down.

When he announced the woman finally she couldn't help but let her jaw drop, her eyes slowly trailing back to the elder woman, a skeptic look crossing her face as she crouched down low, shuffling her paws back and forth as she tried to come to terms with this newest relative. She wasn't for certain what she thought now, knowing that this lady was her grandmother. Both ears swiveled back as she finally shut her maw and swallowed. "My grandmother?" She asked, the doubt clearly obvious as she narrowed her eyes slightly. Putting the small weapon away she frowned and grumbled softly.

Finally she gave in, "Where have you been?", the question asked with a bitter voice, annoyed at the fact that here was a family member that should have been around her whole life and yet at the brink of her adulthood she was just finding the woman was alive. There were very few female figures in her live that had been good to her, just because they were related didn't mean she was going to have the little girl's trust right off the bat.
