One Of My Lonely Days [Wynter]

[Deleted]

Wynter experienced days like this once in a while. One of those days when he realized how lonely he was. Of course, he had the company of nature, and the smaller critters, but those were the days he would think to himself "That's not enough". That really didn't affect his will to go on, no, it was that serious. He sighed. The light depression was getting to him, and it didn't really help that he had an empty stomach. Suddenly, his nose was filled with the scent of pine, which was strange to him, for there was no trees in a mile radius that matched that description. He guessed his stomach was playing tricks on his senses. The strange aroma slowly shrouded all of his other senses. He must be heading toward a forest, or maybe the nasal hallucination was becoming to powerful for his mind to overcome. He had lasted much longer without food, so it was strange that he was suffering from such effects. Cringing, he bent down to see if he could smell anything other than the suffocating scent. Earth, morning dew, normal things. It was almost like a dream, and it should have been, what with the impossible smell that ever so gently filled his lungs breath by breath. Panicked, he began to hyperventilate, he couldn't stop walking. Something was keeping him from turning his legs away, or even halting, inducing a feeling of terror. He began to calm himself while his body inched closer step by step to the smell. Just then, another smell entered his mind. A fresh kill. It had only just registered into his mind, but his body had gained this information much earlier. He understood what was happening, and picked up the pace. He started to see a speck of something that he was rapidly closing in on. Then it dawned on him. A wolf! He wasted no time to dash forward in the cover of a large line of tall grass. Complete camouflage. He realized the wolf could still smell him, so as he approached he kept his gestures as unthreatening as possible, and proceeded with caution

Alina moved along exploring the now familiar territory that she called her home. Living with the pack had made such a change in her life, made her feel at home. She still couldn't remember much of her past, but the longer she spent with her new family the more she began to remember. She missed Thor more than she could fathom, having only spent a short time with him. Each passing day brought with it more frustrations without him by her side. Those few hours they had spent in the woods had left her so confused about her situation. She had wanted him to stay with her. Wanted to leave with him. Wanted something more. Even those three words that had been so shocking to her had left her confused. She felt the same that he did, but when he had left he had taken away any outlet for those feelings. She had no way to express or work through them without him near her.

Alina grunted before trotting further on. If she had been paying better attention then she probably would have caught the scent earlier, but it was too late. She had stumbled upon a stranger and there was no avoiding the meeting now. Looking around she spotted the trespasser as he seemed to try to avoid her. She smiled before slowly approaching, unable to deny herself the chance to make new friends. She kept her tail at a slow wag trying to rid herself of anything other than calm. She sniffed again determining that it was in fact a male. If she was a smarter less playful wolf than she would have called for her pack. Instead she chose to greet every stranger with enthusiasm. He was close enough that she knew he could hear her so she couldn't hep but bark out a greeting. "Hello!" She remembered the last time she had played with Thor, their game of hide and seek had been the most fun. She doubted this particular meeting would turn out the same way, but she could hope for the chance at a new friend.

There it was! Finally! Something he could eat. He darted forward, not caring about the wolf quite yet. He pounced on the small berry patch an chowed on the sweet tart orbs of flavor. He tear fell from his eyes, oh, food was so awesome. He decided he should find a way to carry food with him. "If only Swallow was here" he thought. "Oh, thank goodness we're not dead" the voice said. "I know right!? he relied. "Don't eat too many so fast! You might get yourself sick" "Oh yah, oops." He swallowed. Gosh, it was amazing. One of the only things he and his voice could agree with was that food was awesome. He continued to eat some more, trying to take his time. He heard something moving nearby. "Oh! I forgot! That wolf is still here!" he thought. "Hmm, this might be a problem, I don't think it can quite see you yet, just keep eating, and keep your head down" He shivered. Gosh, more people again. He loved people. But he also hated the way they made him feel, but they were cool, maybe not that nice, but cool. He often trifled himself thinking about people. They were so hard to figure out for him, and he didn't understand most of what they were saying, and they were always concerned about getting somewhere, eating something, killing someone. "Hello" He heard. Oh, the wolf noticed him! He was not sure where he was, somewhere north he supposed. He was very certain he was in pack territory though. He shuddered. The one thing he hated was packs, THEY were a huge problem, and he was always careful to stay a safe distance from them. The voice often told him of run ins he had with packs, and most of them were not pretty. "Ok, you can do this!" he told himself. His shyness never ceased to appear whenever he needed to talk to someone. "Um, h-h-hi!" He said.

Roka watched as the male ate the berries, wondering why he continued to ignore her. She was in plain sight and she had seen him spot her, but it was almost as if he didn't care. Only when she greeted him did he look up at her. When he returned the greeting he did so with a stutter. Alina didn't want him to be afraid of her so she took a quick step back giving him some space. Then she sat down giving him a reassuring smile. Her tail thumped back and forth behind her, the excitement too much to contain. She wiggled a but, but didn't move any closer. "My name is Alina. What is your name." Her naturally bubbly personality was coming out and she wondered where this wolf had come from.

She had been a cast away landing on this island alone and hurt, some of the others that she had met were born here. She wondered what it would be like living here in this beautiful place for her whole life. As it was she couldn't remember where she had been born or even where she had lived. Her amnesia only gave her snippets of her past life. She hoped that with more time she would find the rest of herself, but Thor had reassured her that she didn't need her past to be who she was. He always knew just what to say to make her feel beautiful and cherished. For whatever reason their brief meeting in the forest that day had blossomed into so much more. He had been on a mission to find more information for his pack, but he had put everything on hold to spend time with her. What she had expected to be another friendship had taken a turn for something better and it had filled her life with so much joy.

Oh no! He had completely ignored someone next to him! He immediately jumped up! The person was right next to him! He stepped back and blushed, turning his head away for a second as to get ahold of himself. Come on, Wynter, just one word!!! "H-h-hi" He heard her question, but was finding it heard to find the words. "I-I-i'm Wynter" he said, stuttering. He really did not expect the person to be so close! It was a little more comforting because it was a she, but still, people were a very big thing to him. After his last encounter with a wolf, he still hadn't gotten over what happened. His leg was finally healed however. It had nearly gotten infected, him waiting so long to clean it. He was not excited to see another person so soon from his last experience, and he was very sure she wasn't the only wolf in the area. In fact, he was almost sure he was in a pack's territory, which was horrible for him. He was so careful normally, but he was not prepared to be without food for so long, and it seemed he had lost his way. He felt like crying, in fact that was almost what he did. He felt a tear about to escape his face, and he turned away again, and waited till it fell to the earth to face the femme again. Memories were such troubling things, especially when you didn't have any. According to his "voice", he could say that he had only really been him for about 8 months. It had only been a few days since he had seen the other wolf, and he had kind of hoped that he would never see him again, or anyone really, at least for a while longer. He glanced back at the she wolf.
