Lost [OPEN]

[Deleted]

A faint pink glow bathed the forest floor, originating from the light which seeped through the canopy of the oddly pink leaves. The sun was setting; it would probably be dark in a few hours and Sycamore was not too keen to be out in the open like this when that happened. A warm breeze flew past her, ruffling up her pale green fur and making her swish her tail minutely. Her grey eyes kept darting around when she saw shadows breezing past. It unnerved her. She didn't know where she was. She had no idea how she got there. She just knew that she was hungry and alone and not overly skilled in these sort of situations.

She stopped moving when she heard a twig snap somewhere to her right and her nose twitched, head turning. She caught sight of a rabbit and ran at it, in her usual foolhardy manner. Of course, this just meant the rabbit got away. Sycamore whined sadly and sat down in the shade of the nearest tree, yawning. It wasn't long before the she-wolf was curling up into a ball.

She sure hoped someone would turn up soon. She had yet to find company since going out on her own little adventure.

Gwyx prowled the forest of love, it's pink hue making him cringe in disgust. His eyes blazed and his gold-brown ruff stood on end like he was right after a thunder storm. The male huffed as his breath crystallized and fell to the earth like dew. The yellow male slunk low to the ground. He quickly realized he wasn't alone. His sharp eyes spied a greenish shape lying in the frozen grass.

[Deleted]

Sycamore was yet to fall asleep, eyes still looking around the area restlessly with her chin resting on her tail. Her ears pricked up and she thought she heard a footstep. Tail flicking out from under her chin, she stood up excitedly - maybe it was food!
She looked around more intently, wanting to eat something substantial and fully believing that she had heard some sort of prey.

[Deleted]

Gwyx stepped back as he realized it was a wolf. She was young and looked rather hungry. The yellow wolf only stared. (Sorry going camping!)

[Deleted]

A bright yellow colour caught her eye and Sycamore finally noticed that there was another wolf. She trotted over to the bigger male after a moment's delay - giving it hardly any thought, she hadn't had company in a while.

"Hey!" She barked at him in greeting, tail wagging happily behind her.

(Ooc: No problem!)

[Deleted]

As the shewolf practically bounced over to him he tensed up and gave her no heed. He continued walking forward, his ears twitching to pick up any scents.

[Deleted]

She easily fell into place next to, and slightly behind, the other; moving faster than usual to keep pace. She whined low in her throat involuntarily at his lack of reply and watched him curiously, head tilted to one side. Her tail was wagging still, but at a much less excitable pace.
Sycamore was getting restless by not speaking but she was waiting to see if the sunshine wolf was going to respond to her greeting.

[Deleted]

Gwyx sighed, and not looking at the wolf said, "hey." His breathy reply was quiet and really not directed to anything. He didn't have time for pretty- he stole a glance at her-very pretty wolves. He corrected himself. Maybe he didn't have to much to do...No! Well, maybe... NO!! He shook his head and walked faster, confliction in his blue eyes.

[Deleted]

She grinned brightly at hearing his reply, which was followed by a small huff as he sped up. She quickened her pace, hating to admit that maybe she was having a little difficult keeping up with him using her short legs.
"My name's Sycamore, what's yours?" She questioned, giving him hardly any time to reply before continuing in a bubbly voice. "Why do you walk so fast?"

[Deleted]

Gwyx rolled his blue eyes, and, giving up he turned on her abruptly. "My name is Gwyx and I walk fast because you're so annoying!" He whirled around and galloped away, once he was smart her away he began to feel guilty and stopped. He glanced back and then trotted back. "I-I'm sorry.."

[Deleted]

Sycamore was upset when he first ran away and mildly offended that he found her annoying. She was considering just turning around and leaving there and then. However, the other did come back and apologise. That made her laugh lightly and smile, already forgiving the grump.
"It's okay, I do talk a lot!"
An easy smile fell into place on her face and she started walking forwards, moving a little past Gwyx and turning to look over her shoulder at him.
"You coming? You appeared to be really intent on walking this way before!"

[Deleted]

Gwyx blinked in confusion. Wow, so forgiving. Becker her take the lead and rhythmically trotted on, his ears twitching. The scents of prey were stale and wet. He snorted in disgust. "No prey for miles!"

[Deleted]

She walked with a bounce in her step, sniffing the air when the other mentioned the lack of prey. She nodded, agreeing with him.
"Maybe they'll turn up later?" Her ears twitched and Sycamore turned to look at him whilst continuing onwards. "Or we could keep walking and then find some."

[Deleted]

Gwyx slowly began to relax, talking more. "By now the only prey that will be out are...raccoons and weasels." He scented the air. The other things that are out wouldn't be fun to fight."

[Deleted]

She smiled wider.
"But isn't the whole point of it to get food? Fighting them might mean we get hurt!"
She looked forward again after almost tripping over a log on the ground, evidently a clumsy wolf.
