It was a bright day. The sun rose early, spilling across the ledge leading into the Fenrir and Rhea's den. And there was an air of excitement in the air. Today, the leaders had announced, their four pups would be taking their first trip from the den to meet the pack. Of course it wasn't the first meeting- over the past month, the entire pack had ventured into the den in the hopes of getting a glimpse of the four little lives that had graced the pack, but they were kept at a distance and little could be seen from ten feet. This was their first chance to get up close, to sniff and look over them without getting snarled at by their protective mother.
Said protective mother was awake, gently grooming the smaller male, little Judo, smoothing his gray fur down from where it had gotten ruffled from how he'd been sleeping. She glanced up at Bobby, and even without words, it was obvious she was nervous. She could not forget her first litter. "Are you sure they're ready?" she asked, and she couldn't help a grin as Judo piped up. "I am, Mama! Are there lotsa wolves out there? I can't see them! Can't we go yet?"
"No, love," she replied, pulling him closer and resuming her grooming. If Bobby insisted upon it, she'd go along with it, but she was still worried. What if something happened? What if... her eyes darkened and she dropped her head; taking advantage of her break, Judo scampered away, leaping into the air, pouncing at Gabe. "Play with me, brother!"
