*sigh* finally able to get online...
The stars shimmered, and Anya raised her head, inhaling deeply. The crisp air of autumn seared in her nostrils. Autumn was definitely here. In a way, Anya was sad. Summer had its share of happy incidents that she did not want to fade into the past, but Anya also realized that it was the natural cycle of things, for things and memories to fade into the past. Her father was one of those memories, though her brother still rested peacefully at the front of her mind every morning.
Morning in the autumn had been Malaki's favorite time. He would dash and play, running in circles chasing his tail like a goofball. At the memory, Anya's lips curled into a slight smile. Goodness, she missed him, but she wouldn't trade the life she had now for the one she had had before, constantly running from the pack's traditions and customs.
Anya sighed. This life, here in Phoenix Valley, was definitely better than the one she had led before. She had so many friends here; Ty, Rendall, Xeris, and Da Vinci, though Da Vinci was long gone.
