Lets dance awhile.
#1
Insomnia stood on the rock that hung over the small spring. Her mult-colored orbs looked down at the clear teal water hat beaconed to her. It sparkled in the waning sunlight, beginning her to come and play in its shallow depths. A soft smile caressed her lips as she made herself stand still, letting the muted energy surround her. This place was gorgeous. She wanted nothing more than to stay her. Perhaps she could leave the den to stay here and dance beneath the moonlight. She breathed in the fresh scent of the water before lowering her body on the cool rock. A black paw dangled down and lazily traced circles in the water. She watched as the ripples widened and reached towards the center of the spring towards a small Willow. She smiled as her eyes drooped closed. I wish I had a friend..

She remembered having wandered her from the safe cover of the den. She had found a thin trail outside so out of curiosity she traveled down it and found one of the most beautiful places she had ever seen. The black female kept her eyes closed as she thought about her day…a day that was wasted her at this beautiful spring. She could stay here forever in this beautiful place. She wanted to forget about the trouble her pack could be in, and all the worries she had to have. She hadn’t seen anyone here of that nature and she doubted that she would see anyone of that nature.

Multi-colored opened and her head lifted as she looked at the spring. Yellow, orange, and red hues were cast around her as the sun continued to set. Lips parted as she sighed. Slowly, she shuffled forward so that she was hanging over the edge. She slid into the water, the coolness bringing her to her senses. She had been here almost three months now and she was shocked by how this area still amazed her. All four paws were placed in the shallow water and she stood there for a few minutes, watching as small fish swam away from her. She waded out towards the Willow. She wanted to dance but the moon was not full. The dark female only danced beneath the light of the moon. She looked up at the branches that dangled from their strong but flexible branches. The bright leaves teased her and she reached up, balancing on her back legs as she nipped gently at them.

Energy had been absolutely soaring through the young female as of late. Her boycoy, Cerberus, had been admitted to the pack. She’d made friends with Soran, had gone fishing with Noah and even patched things up with Shandom. Life was great, and as she came back from patrolling the borders, she couldn’t help but dip her head back to howl at the crescent moon above her. Elated, the girl decided to take a visit to her favourite stream for a drink and possibly a swim. The air had begun to get a little cooler, and she hadn’t even caught a chill that day swimming with Ceri as she might have had if spring weren’t coming.

Lowering her body to the ground, the subordinate shook out her calico patterned fur and then took off at a steady run for the stream. Patrolling all day had done little to ease her restlessness, and she so loved to run. Her fur whipped back, ears pinned to her head to keep the wind from them, and her paws dug into the ground beneath her to propel her forward. She always liked to imagine herself as a deadly streak moving over the snow, coming up on defenceless prey that she’d slaughter and bring back for her pack mates. Her dreams of becoming a hunter had only increased after her lessons with Augustus.

Finally, Ciara came around the bend that lead to her favourite stream. She was about to dive headlong into the water when she noticed a female she didn’t recognize had beat her to it. With a yelp of surprise, the young subordinate dug her claws into the slippery ground beneath her so she didn’t collide headlong with the other female. Unfortunately, while she did manage to slow herself down, Ciara hit a patch of ice and began to spin. With a yip of panic, the mottled subord began to spiral right to the water’s edge and then splash, she was soaked.

A few seconds later, a very soaked Ciara head poked up above the surface. A sheepish grin was on her muzzle as she looked at the female she’d undoubtedly surprised. Now that she was closer, she could tell that the other was a member of New Dawn, and a happy whine left her. A sister she hadn’t met! The girl was unsure how social this new sister was, but she paddled closer to her anyway and took the liberty of sniffing the ebony female’s wet fur. Then, her head tipped up, and a pink tongue dragged across the girl’s muzzle in a friendly greeting.

”Hi! I’m Ciara, your pack sister. Who’re you? I haven’t seen you around before…”

Being so young, Insomnia's mind was full of exploring, adventures, and other little goodies that even little pups would have. Insomnia didn't like sitting in the den for so long doing nothing so most of the time she would sneak out to explore until she simply got bored and headed home to pick on her pack mates in a friendly way. Being the prankster she was, she appreciated having a little fun and enjoying like rather than wasting every day sitting in the den. Today, she would have fun with this sister of hers that she hadn't met. She laughed and laughed when the female fell in the water and smiled when she called to her. ”Hi! I’m Ciara, your pack sister. Who’re you? I haven’t seen you around before…” She liked this female already. Oh, hello, hello, hello!" Chirped the little one as she shuffled, swift and purposeful and with such itty bitty steps (her legs were quite short, after all) until she came to stop right in front of the older one. Her head was tilted back to gaze up gleefully, the top of her head coming up to barely reach the top of the females chest, but she hardly looked intimidated. "My dear, it is a pleasure to meet you! I am Insomnia, your pack sister and the most playful and fun wolf around~" Toothy smile and round eyes filled with a friendly welcome, there was no trace of threat or hostility in her voice. She licked her nose and bounced back a few paces. "You like this stream to? I wish Zalen could of made the den out here but then it wouldn't be much of a secret now."

Ciara’s tongue lashed out in a friendly manner, licking between the ears of this new sister. Insomnia. She repeated the name silently, committing it to memory so she could call on this little one if needed. The girl was surprised that this sister was smaller than her, for in her barely one and a half years, Ciara was still small. She had started to fill out a little though, her whole body becoming more muscular and powerful in a very lithe and feminine way. She would even be close to the age where she’d be able to bear pups, soon, and that was something that excited her very much. This ebony sister of hers seemed much like a pup at heart, and had the same ease and playfulness about her as Ciara did.


“I wouldn’t mind if the den was closer, either, I love it here.” Ciara said, muzzle breaking into her own toothy grin. “It would make it too easy to splash into the den and aggravate some of our older, grumpier pack mates.” Her tones were teasing, and she didn’t allude to which particular pack mate she was talking about. Of course, it was Shandom she meant, the only one to show any hints of being a grumpy old man. Her tail wagged at the thought of her older pack brother, enjoying the ease between them now after her apology. She even felt brave enough to tease Shandom next time she saw him, maybe play with him, and something told her that she would be able to convince Insomnia to join her. They would make a dangerous duo, these two sisters of New Dawn, both exceedingly playful and easygoing.


When the girl licked at her and then jumped back, Ciara let out a small yip of laughter. Had they not been in the water, the calico would have ducked down in a play bow before chasing after her. She didn’t want to drown, though, so she simply lunged forward with a happy whine and took chase to the sister. A large paw came out of the water, sending a rather impressive splash coming towards the other subordinate. Ciara’s tail wagged through the water’s surface, and after splashing her sister she launched backwards in the shallow water, trying to coax Insomnia to play and chase after her.

Insomnia started to laugh. She really enjoyed this female and could see they were to become best friends one day. She grinned when Ciara said that if the den was closer they could splash the older grumpier packmates. "Yes. Because all the older ones are always grumpy." She didn't know which one's she was talking about, maybe her mate Shadow or Shandom. She sighed happily at the thought of messing with Shadow, because he was always about loyalty and service and blahblahblah. She was finally happy that she could play with someone other than a pup. She lunged forward and got soaking wet when Ciara splashed her. "HEY! IMMA GET YOU!!!" She howled a bit and the chase was on. She swam/ran towards the shallow end where the other female was and stuck her tongue out. She poked her butt with her paw and ran out of the water and towards the "grasslands"

Ciara let out a playful yelp when she was splashed in Insomnia’s wake, shaking out her fur while still knee deep in the water. When the other female finally came out of the water and bounded off, Ciara dipped her head back. A short howl left her lips, singing to her pack mates that she’d made a friend in the other subordinate, and that they were playing. Once the howl was complete, the calico subordinate lowered her head and licked her lips as though she tasted the sound.


Then, she bounded off after Insomnia. Her paws dug into the dirt below and she propelled herself forward, chasing after the younger wolf. When she caught up, her jaws moved forward to give Insomnia’s tail a tug should she be able to catch it. Then she leaped in front of the girl, going down into the play bow position and wagging her tail. A short jab to her pack-sister’s chest followed, before Ciara then stood up and bounced towards the girl. She didn’t hit her, just hopped in one direction and then the next near her, initiating a chase from the other girl.


After hopping, Ciara then burst off in the direction of the den, trying to get Insomnia to follow.

OOC here. /+000


Insomnia growled playfully at her sister. Grinning, she looked down at what she had done. Destroying a part of nature did seem wrong in her eyes, although someone of her age shouldn’t have been so obsessed with pride. Inhaling deeply, she was able to detect the scent of another that was carried by her with the small breeze that whispered through the trees. Her small, clumsy legs carried her quickly through the brush and around stones until she happened to see her sister. Multi-colored eyes shone with pure excitement and freedom as let her small legs carry her over. Flowers were blooming everywhere, coloring the area beautifully. Another female wolf might have stopped to admire it all, but no, not Insomnia. She had her gaze fixed on a butterfly that was perched upon one of the plants growing in a small patch of grass. Slowly, she lowered her belly to the rock-hard ground and stared at the insect through narrowed eyes. She was the hunter and the butterfly was her prey. She would catch it and bring it back to Ciara to show her just how skilled she was. She turned though and bounced over to her and smirked. And once her sister bounded off she looked up at the sky for just a moment than chased after her to the den.

She watched her sister for a few moments, stalking the butterfly and wondering if the girl was planning on bringing it over to her. Then, all of a sudden, Insomnia was chasing after her. Ciara laughed, digging her paws into the ground and propelling herself forward. She ran straight into the den, no doubt scaring the life out of some of their pack mates. She was just glad that she hadn't woken the puppy Holly, who'd been especially quiet as of late.

Once inside the den, Ciara flopped down and crossed her paws, waiting for Insomnia to catch up. When the sister arrived, Ciara wanted to learn more about her. She already knew that the girl was playful, and spirited. She liked that. Ciara could also detect the scent of a male lingering on her fur, and the mottled subordinate definitely wanted some of the gossip on whoever the male was. Maybe Insomnia would ask her about Cerberus, too. She couldn't lie, she'd been waiting for someone to show curiosity about the coywolf just so Ciara could gush about him.
