Hush Meadow Through the Haze

@Skittles In case he wants to show. - Going to try to make this thread long enough so at least Skittles can claim points. Anne doesn't really need them.

For a moment the woman was falling. Her cream and white legs buckled underneath her as she face-planted into the snow and grass. Her back curled up and once more Anne had to suffer through another painful seizure. The only good thing was that this particular seizure did not last as long as the one she'd had previously at the foot of the mountains.

A minute rolled by and soon her body ceased shaking. The she wolfs muscles relaxed and her back loosened from the locked position it had been in just moments ago. Terra opened her filmy eyes and spat out copious amounts of foamy bubbles from her maw.

Suddenly the sickly two year old was up and moving. Staggering to her pale feet and glancing around frightened of some invisible ghosts. With a frightened bark she twisted sideways and began running as fast as she could into the open meadow. The woman tripped many times which slowed her escape from those imaginary enemies. Her gargling howl rose up past the bubbles in her mouth searching for help against the very tiny patches of dried grass that she thought were on fire.

"Someone!!! HEEELLPPP!!!" Her voice echoed across the stark meadow as she barreled along towards the forest near the north end of the territory. Anne was heading towards trees. Towards the cover they would provide to escape the scary monsters swarming in from every side.

@Hotei Want to join in? Would be the perfect place for Skittles to show Hotei the alpha female he found...

Skittles had been trying to follow the woman Anne for quite some ways, but her movements and pace were exhausting for a wolf who didn't get to eat much. His last hunt was to try to usher some rabbits into the mouth of that same wolf, but it didn't work out well. He knew then that the energy expenditures were more than he should have spent, and he felt it twice over in retrospect. Now, feasting on the body of Kamota as Anne had tried to do , however taboo, seemed appealing. The trek to follow the sickly and sorrowful woman wasn't going well. The best Skittles could do was a fast and pointed trot, where as it seemed that Anne managed long runs, and then would suddenly plop down and do a vigorous scent-rolling. Not that he knew her name, nor did he realize that these motions were the mark of something horribly, horribly wrong. Anne's seemingly playful tackles into the ground seemed to Skittles what a woman might do in heat, rubbing herself about sensiously. They gave him time to catch up, but for much of the journey, he had to rely on his nose to track her fresh scent trail. Sometimes he was lucky enough to view her hind quarters from a great distance. He felt proud and accomplished that he had indeed found a female to be Hotei's alpha, and done it so quickly and easily. She was even in heat, or so he thought. Hotei wouldn't be able to resist, and Hotei would surely thank him profusely. Then, Skittles could have a pack, and thus food to eat, and thus not die. Because all of his tryings to join a pack had been an utter disaster ; it didn't help that such attempts always included trespassing, often eating things that shouldn't be eaten, and on more than one occasion, pissing his pants. Panic washed over him as he heard a cry for assistance, and his nerves felt like they were on fire with anxiety and fear of the unknown. He tried to trot faster, but he felt he had to sacrifice his energy savings plan in order to get to the cry. "Hawwooooouu!", he had done the best he could think of and howled wordlessly. It meant nothing in particular, though one could easily decide that the howl meant that at least one other wolf was near. He began to rush forwards in abandon. But there was no way his run could catch up to Anne, especially being so far behind, and especially because Anne was running herself. He tried to reach her ... _
