Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you
I'm here for you
Aristocra watched carefully as the manen lay down to sleep. Her worry intensified, frantic questions running through her brain - How long would she be asleep? Would she even wake up in this cold? How disabling would her wound be? Could she fly out of here? Should Aristocra go on alone? The sheer weight of the questions running through her head made her feel helpless and useless, and she lowered her head and lay her ears back in panic.
She wasn't used to this!
Ashada would be a better thinker in a situation like this. Aristocra had grown up as the respected wolf in the pack, the one everyone looked up to, the one everyone did the thinking for. The only decision she ever really made by herself was to not ignore her sister - even then, she realized, she could have done so much more for her. She simply didn't know what to do in a non-pack setting, especially with a wounded wolfess who had tried to attack her earlier.
Get a grip and think clearly![/color] she told herself firmly. If it's cold, then she needs warmth. You can talk again when she wakes up.[/color] After hesitating for a moment, she kicked herself over to the wolfess and lay on her stomach at her back, pressing their fur together to at least keep both of them alive.
..."good to be true," she heard, ears catching just the very end of a murmur as they pricked up. She wasn't sure how long she had spent here, but apparently the manen had wokekn up. She seemed melancholy for some reason, and she couldn't imagine exactly why. Seeing as she was awake, Aristocra stood and backed up a few paces to give her some privacy, sitting down and giving her a questioning look.[/size]
