rescue me [koder]

Text | Speaking | Thought

A black figure was running away from something, or someone, even if no one was chasing her. Her surroundings, as she ran, began to shift from a beautiful sandy beach, to flower-filled grass, to a small dense forest, where she made a small stop to drink water from a small pond, and finally, the earth began to turn red in color. The grass began to disappear, and in its place, a rust land began to emerge in front of the ebony wolfess, reflecting against her grey eyes and making her sigh. This place was beautiful, and from the looks of it, she was finally, and truly, alone. 

Rain was running from Xion, the black, mysterious femme, and the wolfess had left her shaken and confused about her training, and about her preparation. Why was she so scared of fighting? Were her mother's teachings not enough? She had never thought of doubting herself in any given moment of her life--she was so sure of herself, that when she encountered the real problem, she did not know if she was ready. That troubled Rain, and that made her reconsider her mindset. She was thankful of Xion somehow, for waking her up and for making her less vulnerable to any others, but she was still wary of the ebony wolf. Where ever she would encounter her, she would keep her distance, because she did not trust her one bit.

Her body contrasted the red scenery, making her like a stain in the red rocks that surrounded her. She looked at the rocks, and sat down. She had heard of others trying to climb up, and succeed, leaving them with a sense of satisfaction. Suddenly, a realization hit her--satisfaction... That is what she needed right now. To feel satisfied, and to feel that she controls at least something in her life. She wanted to feel that she was capable of accomplishing something, and climbing these rocks seemed like a good idea out of the sudden. An inner voice began to speak to her, telling her that it was stupid and dangerous, but something got the best of her, and stood up and began to walk towards the rocks, gripping the surface as hard as she could with her pads and claws.

Step after step, the rocks began to get taller and bigger, giving Rain a rush of adrenaline. Her lips began to curve into a smile, and all of her past worries began to vanish as the rush of excitement entered her body, making her shake and wag her tail in bliss. She had no idea why she was doing this--usually, her mother would vote against this--but somehow, she had never experienced fun or excitement, because she was always acting as the grown up, telling her brother what or what not to do. For once, she felt happy. For once, she felt--

CRACK!

Her eyes widened and her smile disappeared; her body began to loose balance, and when she noticed that the rocks beneath her were beginning to fall apart, it was too late. Rain's body fell down with the group of rocks that she was on, and after free falling several feet down, her body landed with a loud thud. The rocks landed around her; a loud pain began to form in her back right leg, and as she was about to cry for help, everything went black.

Koder made his way through the canyon slowly and carefully. He wasn’t sure how he happened upon this deserted land. It was a sight to behold though and he wasn’t necessarily unhappy that he stumbled upon it. It was a difficult to climb the rugged terrain, but Koder managed it just find. He was well balanced and strong enough to pull himself and to be careful not to fall down. That was the last thing he needed. He had to admit, it was peaceful up here. All his thoughts from before were pushed out as he climbed throughout the rocks. He could see him coming here in the future. He paused for a moment as he lifted his maw into the sky, closing his eyes as a soft breeze swept through the land. Wail. He thought in his mind as he continued forward. It was hard without her by him side, it was still painful some days, but days like this, he felt alright. He let out a sigh of relief.

It was then he noticed a figure in the distance. It was difficult to make out, because it was higher up than he was. He made a quicker pace as he made his way toward it. It wasn’t long before he realized it was a female wolf. It looked like she had fallen and was unconscious. He felt his heart pound in his chest as he quickly raced forward, looking her over. It was then he noticed an open gash on her back leg, blood was leaking out and surrounded the ground. How long was she out? He nudged her slightly, but she didn’t budge. He could see she was still breathing. That was a relief.

“Hey, wake up,” he whispered as he began to lick her ear, hoping to wake her up. He turned and looked toward to the wound. It looked pretty bad, but it was hard to tell the extent of it because of the blood. He made his way over to it and began to lick at her wound. It was the only thing he could think could do. He knew that if the blood didn’t stop soon it could be dangerous. Life threatening, even maybe.

“Come on, wake up.” He whimpered softly.

Everything was black. Her senses were gone; the only response that her body was producing was her breathing. She was trying to wake up, but she felt exhausted, almost resisting to wake up. Her body was numb from the pain, and her eyes were trying to open. Her vision, after some minutes (or hours, she wasn't sure) passed, her vision and hearing began to come back to her. She began to feel something tickling her ear, and at first, she dismissed it as some critter or bug trying figure out what was going on. But then, this sensation in her ear began to speak, telling her to wake up. The voice began to insist, sounding more and more concerned as the seconds flew by. Rain's eyes began to open and search around, and to her surprise, another black wolf was towering over her. Déjà vú... She thought, referencing to the day's previous happenings with Xion. She blinked absentmindedly, trying to regain her consciousness of what had happened. Soon after the sensation in her ear, a whimpering voice made her open her eyes once more towards the direction of the source.

"Come on, wake up." She fully regained her conscience after hearing the male's whimpers, looking at him faintly and feeling weak. "H-hey, what happened? Wha... What's going on?" She questioned, slowly lifting her head up. Out of nowhere, a sharp wave of pain entered her body, making her yelp and cry loudly. "What in the world...?" She looked at her leg, and quickly noticed the wound. It was pretty bad, and her leg was filled with blood. She looked at the wolf before her, and her ears lowered. "Thank you... for waking me up. What... what is your name?" She asked politely, and quickly after she began to lift herself up to lick her wound, but the pain was too much, which resulted in her falling back down yelling in pain. She began to  breathe loudly, trying to canalize the pain, but she couldn't. "Seems like I got into big trouble, huh?" She chuckled a little bit, trying to laugh instead of crying in hopes of hiding her pain. She lowered her eyes and hoped that he was as nice as he appeared to be.

He didn’t know what to do anymore; he was beginning to think she would never wake up. He looked around and of course they were alone. He needed to think, but he couldn’t concentrate. The blood was still gushing and she was still not waking up. However, as if it was by magic, suddenly her eyes opened. Koder took a step back in alarm as she tried to lift her head up and speak. She seemed confused, like she didn’t remember what happened. “I don’t know…I’m assuming you fell?” He said as he tilted his head up and looked. That was the only explanation for what could have happened. He noticed as she turned her attention to the open wound on her leg. He couldn’t stop the blood, he was still unsure of what he could do to help her. He shifted his weight when she thanked him. He really didn’t do much. She probably would have waked up on her own anyhow.

“No, need to thank me,” he said softly, “and my name is Koder.”

He spoke in a soft and gentle voice, lowering his body slightly to meet hers. He watched as she tried to lick her wound, but he could tell it was still painful as she fell back down. He whimpered slightly as he scooted closer to her. He didn’t like to see anybody hurt.

“You’ll be in serious trouble if we don’t get that blood to stop,” he told her as he quickly looked around. Then an idea popped into his head. He turned to look back at the female. “Hold on,” he quickly ran off into the distance and began to dig in the softest place he could find. When he got to the soft dirt, he filled his mouth with it. He quickly returned to her and placed the dirt onto her wound. “I’m sorry,” he whispered over and over again, knowing it could be painful. He did it for a few more times until the wound was sealed off completely. It seemed like it was working, but only time will tell if that would have helped.

Text | Speaking | Thoughts

Everything came back bit by bit as Rain began to recognize why she was in such predicament in the first place. She remembered her foolish attempt of climbing the rocks, trying to feel like she could control her life and what she did with it still. However, she forgot that sometimes we cannot control our life, even if we don't like the outcomes. She had to learn to make life a beautiful thing, even with the dark times, and even with the storms of life. She had to remember that once the storm passed by, everything was calm. She had to remember that when the night is at its darkest, it means the sun is coming soon after.

The voice of the male broke through Rain's thoughts, giving her a warm sensation inside--it was one that she had never felt before in her life, and she loved the feeling. She felt safe somehow, and it was really strange of her to think that, since she never trusted anyone, especially males. But she looked at him and unconsciously smiled at him when she heard the male filled with concern.  “I don’t know…I’m assuming you fell?” She nodded in response. "Yes, I fell, I remember now... I wanted to climb these rocks. Dunno, I think it felt like a good idea after all the stress I've been through. I thought it was a nice way of forgetting my troubles for a while." She smiled softly at him, although the smile hid a hint of sadness in it due to her scary encounter with Xion and her thoughts about her training.

The male answered her question about his name and responded to her thanks, saying that his name was Koder. "Nice meeting you, Koder. I'm so glad I'm not alone right now. My name is Rain." She kept that same weak smile on her lips, however, her attention turned to him once more when he told her that she was going to be in trouble if the wound kept bleeding like that. Suddenly, he took off, making her tilt her head a little bit. She saw him in a short distance, grabbing sand with his mouth and bringing it over to her. A sharp wave of pain entered her body when he placed the dirt on her wound, making her yelp and tense her body in response. He kept saying he was sorry while he kept putting sand on her wound until it was sealed. Gasping, she looked at him and lowered her ears in a sign of humility and thankfulness, and smiled. "It's okay, it had to be done... thank you once more. You're so kind." Her words were soft and filled with sincerity. She remained laying on her side, since she knew that the sand had to absorb the blood in order to stop bleeding. 

A short silence surrounded the two wolves next, so Rain decided to break it as soon as possible. "So, Koder... If I may ask, are you from around here? Or were you just visiting?" She smiled politely as she asked him, hoping to get to know him more and hoping to have a decent conversation with him. After all, she felt that he was very nice, so she did not keep her guard up with him. She studied him closely, however--he was a very attractive wolf that mirrored her image very closely. He was bigger and heavier than she was, but that was expected. She smiled, often wincing from the pain, but waiting eagerly for his reply.

“That is really dangerous,” he told her when she spoke about how the accident happened. He turned and looked at the rocks. Even him, who had good balance, would be foolish to try that feat. He turned and looked back at her. “You really need to be careful out here…especially since you are all alone.” What would have happened if he wasn’t nearby? He doubt this place got much activity and he didn’t want to think about the consequences…he shook his head pushing the thought from his mind. “You need to think about what you’re doing…” he stopped. He realized he had no right to berate her for her actions. He was just a stranger to her. “I’m sorry, that was out of line.” He said in a softer tone this time. He hoped that he didn’t come off too strong and seemed off Standish or rude. That was the last thing he wanted.

“Rain,” he repeated her name. It seemed like a rather unusual names, but for some reason, he felt like it fit her so well, “That’s a pretty name.” he admitted to her. Koder was rather honest with his opinion and didn’t think much of it. It was a compliment and nothing more, but still was truthful. Despite his cold appearance, he was actually kind, he didn’t like to see anyone hurt or down. He was always the type of guy to help someone. It was just in his blood. His brother used to make fun of him saying he looked like a bear, but was actually a teddy bear. He shook his head at the thought. He did secretly admit to himself that he missed his brother and hoped that he was doing well. He only wished for him to be happy.


“Just visiting,” he told her, “I’m not part of a pack…so I just go with the flow. I often don’t stay in the same place for too long. I like to keep moving. I don’t really like staying in one place for too long.” Moving kept his mind focused on other things. If he got too comfortable to his surroundings, than he would have more time to think, and that was dangerous. That is why he was always on the move, but he didn’t say that. That was too personal. He wasn’t sure if he would ever be ready to join a pack. Sure the idea sometimes stuck to him sometimes, but he hadn’t been part of a pack in such a long time, it would feel weird. Plus, he used to roam the countryside with his brother and then with his mate. That was six months ago. He doubted a pack was the place for him.

“What about you?” He asked her. He didn’t think a pack member would wander far from her pack, but she didn’t strike him to be a loner. “They must be worried about you.” He said just automatically assuming that she was part of a pack. That must have been wrong for him to think that, but he couldn’t help it. Although it might have been a little hypocritically for him to think this way, but he believed that wolves should be part of a pack. Even though he felt distant from them, but it was normal for a wolf to want to be part of a family. He was just weird.

"That's really dangerous, you really need to be careful out here…especially since you are all alone. You really need to think about what you are doing..."  Rain blushed, but she thanked her dark fur for covering her up. She was truly ashamed of her behavior, and she understood why was he so concerned. He was telling the truth, whether she liked it or not, it was necessary to hear. "I... I know..." She trailed off, looking at him with her ears lowered, showing respect. “I’m sorry, that was out of line.” Hearing him apologize made her lift her ears a little bit and smile at him. She didn't mind--he was just concerned about her, even if they were strangers. It was something that touched her heart, and he didn't have to apologize. "Don't worry, I understand that my behavior earlier today wasn't my best." She smiled at him warmly, proving to him that she was not mad. 

She blushed once again when he repeated her name and complimented it, telling her that it was a pretty name. She wagged her tail slightly and smiled once more, bowing her head down and replying with a soft thank you. For some odd reason, she felt at ease with this male, and after what she put him through earlier, she was immensely grateful towards him. He replied to her question of why was he here, and he told her that he was just visiting, which she found understandable. This area was exquisite with beauty of all kinds, making it a perfect spot for visiting and having a relaxing day. He then told her that he preferred to be on the move and not stuck in a place for too long, which she found interesting. Rain was more stay-at-home girl, but she sure enjoyed adventures once in a while.

Koder then asked about her, saying that her pack would be worried about her. "They would, if I had one," she said giggling softly and winking at him teasingly, slowly feeling her flirty nature take part of her suddenly. "But in all seriousness, I'm a loner right now. I have been for quite some time, after leaving my family behind to make my own life. I miss them dearly," she paused for a few seconds, remembering her family's smiling faces waiting for her arrival, "but, life has to go on. However, I visit them at least once every six months or maybe even earlier. " Rain paused and smiled warmly at Koder, and then looked at her wound. Talking with him had proved the perfect method of forgetting her pain, so she decided to try and stand up. "Let me see if I can stand up now!" She said somewhat excitedly and hopefully, using her front legs as support for standing up. She stood up slowly, and after she managed to rise, some blood-stained sand fell from her wound to the rust floor of the place. Limping a little bit, she perked her ears at Koder.

Looking at Koder, she wondered about him, growing more and more curious about the ebony wolf in front of her. In a daring question, she asked, "And you, Koder? For how long have you been a loner, and why? If you are one, of course, and only if you want to share. I respect whatever you wish." Rain's head naturally tilted a little bit out of curiosity, hoping to make an interesting conversation with the male, and hoping she did not make the wrong question to him. She limped a little bit before sitting, eagerly waiting a reply from him.

ooc;; @koder_ What should we do after you reply? Should we say that the day began to turn into night and since they are somewhat far away from their usual sleeping places they find a place to sleep in? Or if you have any other better ideas, PM me xD I'm tired.

“So you are a loner,” Koder said with a nod of his head. It seemed like it was common around these parts. There weren’t many wolves he had seen along the way that had been part of a pack. Well it was obvious that pack members often didn’t wander too far away from each other. He wondered why she wasn’t part of one though. He figured she must have run into a few that would have been happy to accept her into their homes. It even seemed that she longed for that type of thing. Koder was different. He wasn’t sure if a pack would make him feel at home, after all it had been so long since he was part of a pack, and he wasn’t sure what it would be like anymore. He lowered his body slightly and took a step forward when she decided she wanted to try to stand up. He wanted to be ready in case she wasn’t able to and needed help to balance herself. However, she seemed to be able to stand on her own. He let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps the wound wouldn’t get worse after all. He was glad about that.


Suddenly things got awkward when Rain had turned the tables around and asked him about himself. He shifted his weight and averted her gaze. He knew the question was innocent enough and that she didn’t mean anything by it. After all he was the one who brought up the whole pack thing up first. It was only natural for her to ask him about it. He didn’t like it though. “Umm, well I’ve been a loner for as long as I can remember. Ever since I left my parents pack,” he finally spoke after a few seconds, finally looking back up at her, “I’ve only been alone for six months though....” He kept it at that though and didn’t further elaborate on the subject and just hoped that he didn’t push the subject any further. He didn’t want to talk about what happened. Wail. He thought to himself and shook his head, pushing the memories and thoughts away from his head. No, this wasn’t about to happen now. He wasn’t going to think about it.

Koder turned his head and looked up to the sky, the sun was beginning to set and the many colors danced across the sky. It was very beautiful, but through it he could see dark clouds rolling in. He shifted his weight as he realized that it might begin to rain. Well, wasn’t that just perfect. What were they going to do about that, where could they go? He wasn’t exactly sure.

“I think it’s going to rain soon,” he said as he turned his head back toward Rain.

Rain noticed how the male's demeanor changed when she asked that question. "Dang it, I knew I asked the wrong question..." Rain mentally hit herself, but she kept a cool expression on the outside. Koder's gaze avoided hers for a few seconds, and replied hesitantly for some odd reason. “Umm, well I’ve been a loner for as long as I can remember. Ever since I left my parents pack. I’ve only been alone for six months though....” Rain nodded, furiously curious about his past, but she knew more than that. She had to stop asking the male questions, because she knew that he was already uncomfortable. Smiling at him, she replied softly in order to calm him down or something. "I see. Once again, Koder, I'm glad that I met you today." She smiled at him warmly, making sure he was comfortable at all costs. 

He then told her that he thought that it was going to rain soon. Rain's eyes looked to the heavens, spotting the rain clouds coming in. She then looked to her surroundings and observed that she was far away from her usual resting areas, and possibly so was Koder. She then began to look around, analyzing every spot that was close and far. "We should look for a place to sleep in. At least I'm too far away from my usual sleeping spots, not sure about you, though..." She trailed off, still searching with her eyes, trying to find a place to find refuge in. Rain's tail wagged when she saw a perfect spot a few feet from them--a group of rocks had formed a cave-like den, perfect for the two of them. It had some dry grass and leaves, signaling to her that some other animal had been sleeping there as well. 

"Here, that place looks perfect!" She walked towards it, limping due to her wound. After a couple of minutes, she arrived to the den, hoping that Koder would had followed her. She began to smell the den, and apparently another loner wolf had been taking refuge here. However, the scent was almost a week old, so she doubted that the wolf would come back. She laid down, making sure that Koder had space for himself, and making sure not to hurt herself any more. She smiled and waited for Koder's entrance, hoping that it would not be that awkward for the both of them.

ooc;; @koder Dun dun dun.... I can't wait to see Koder's reaction. XD

“I’m glad that I met you too,” he said truthfully and warmly. He watched as Rain looked around, saying that they needed to look for a safe area to get away from the rain. He agreed completely, he didn’t feel like getting wet, and who knew how long it was going to rain for or if it was going to be a storm or what. He didn’t have a place to go to since he never stayed in a place for too long. He watched as she soon found a little den and made her way in. He shifted his weight when she laid down in the small area, obviously making enough room for him to squeeze in right next to her. He knew there wasn’t really any other option, what was he supposed to do? Go and look for another cave? And then what about after the storm was over? Was he supposed to just leave…he couldn’t do that either. She was hurt and he wanted to make sure she would make a complete recovery.

Koder slowly made his way into the small den and laid down, making sure not to touch Rain. It was just a little too awkward. He hadn’t been close to someone like this in a while. Though it was different this time around. Sure, Rain was beautiful and kind, she was the type of wolf he would have easily fallen for years ago, but things were different now. He didn’t think that way anymore. He wasn’t looking at her in that way. He made sure he didn’t. The silence that dragged on was really bothering him. He needed to say something to ease the tension. “So, I wonder how long it’s going to rain. We might have to be here the rest of the night…” he spoke without thinking. He turned his head away and cursed himself inside his head, if things were awkward enough, that statement even made it worse.

“Are you feeling any better?” He asked as he turned to look back at her with a gentle tone. He was truly concerned for her wellbeing. He turned and looked at her leg, making sure not to accidently hit it. Even though the situation was a little odd and awkward, it wasn’t that he didn’t hate it and he liked Rain’s company. Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad after all…

Rain smiled warmly as she saw the ebony wolf make himself comfortable next to her. She noticed how he tried to make sure that they didn't have physical contact, but she didn't feel any bad--she understood him perfectly. It was their first time meeting, after all, so she tried to make him feel rather comfortable just in case he was feeling otherwise. Rain smiled warmly at him, placing her head on her front legs and sighing. After a while, the silence was somewhat comforting to Rain, but before she could enjoy any more of it, Koder broke it. “So, I wonder how long it’s going to rain. We might have to be here the rest of the night…” She nodded at him, blushing slightly. "I really don't know, but those clouds sure looked heavy. I dunno for how long we have to be here, but all I know is that I don't want to get wet. My name may be Rain but that doesn't mean I live by it." She made a small giggle and sighed.

After a few seconds, he asked her how she was feeling. Looking at her leg, and then at him, she made a small shrug. "I really can't say. Sometimes it stings, but sometimes it doesn't. I need to let nature take its course and let it heal itself. Even though I think a few herbs would accelerate the process," She said, then looked at her leg again, frowning a little bit. "However, I think it's going to leave a mark," her ears began to lower at the thought of having a huge scar in her leg, but she shrugged off the feeling. At least it wasn't in her face. 

A very bright lightning illuminated their den, and quickly after a loud thunder interrupted her thoughts.  Jumping n surprise, she looked at Koder somewhat worried. She wasn't expecting it at all; it made her feel embarrassed that she got scared like that, but what could she do? "Woah, that was loud!" She looked at Koder with a somewhat worried expression, unconsciously pushing her body further into the den. The raindrops began to fall down, first softly and then very loudly and copiously, some of them managing to get inside of their den. Thunders roared, lightnings were furious in the sky, and the rain's sound was deafening--it was as if it had never rained in Anikira. Rain sighed, lowering her head to her front legs.

"You know," she began, "in times like these ones, my mother taught us to never be scared of thunder or lightning. She would embrace us and keep us warm and protected, singing lullabies to us, even if she was terrified of them. I sometimes would see her shaking, telling us that everything was going to be okay, but I knew she only pretended to be calm to show us that there was nothing to be afraid of." She looked at the ground as she spoke, sighing in melancholy before finishing her statement. "She named me Rain because I was born in a day like this. She told me it was a reminder to her to not be afraid of the rain nor the thunders, because she would always remember that something precious came out of it." Smiling at her memories, a small tear was beginning to form in her eyes, but she quickly controlled herself. Hoping that somehow her story would open Koder up, she lifted her head and looked at Koder, waiting anxiously to hear what he thought. The day was getting darker and darker, and the rain kept falling down, but for some reason, she felt so peaceful...

Koder listened to Rain carefully as she spoke about how she felt. He was glad that it wasn’t bothering her too much, perhaps that meant there wasn’t an infection? He knew that it needed to be cleaned off soon (once it was no longer bleeding). Otherwise the dirt he placed in it could cause an infection. He didn’t know a ton about that kind of stuff, but his mother was a healer wolf and taught her sons a bit before they left the pack. He shook his head at the daunting memory as he turned to look back at Rain. “Think of it more as a battle scar,” he told her with a smile, “you battled those rocks hard and the scare is your trophy.” He didn’t want her to worry about a scar, but he knew how females could get – well even males could get like that sometimes. However if her fur grew back than it should covered up the scar regardless and it might not be noticeable to the naked eye. He was thinking of getting up to go get some herbs for her, he knew a few that were good for that sort of thing, but he was unsure if he could find them in this kind of place. However, before he could say anything, the sky lit up like a thousand suns that followed with a loud bang that sounded as though someone was playing the drums.

He noticed that she jumped up with surprise, but he didn’t react to it. It shocked him a little as well (not because he was scared, but because it surprised him). “Yes, it is going to be a large storm indeed,” no longer than when he said that the rain started to come down, breaking from the heavens below and scattering the earth below. The rain always calmed him down when he was younger; there was something soothing about the rhythm of the rain as it hit the ground. It was almost like music in his ears. He closed his eyes as he listened to the rain. It reminded him of back home. He didn’t like to think about it though. Although there were good memories of his childhood with his brother and parents…there was also haunting memories that he wish he didn’t have to remember. He could see them now as they ran up the hills, their faces here hairy and their feet flicked on the rocks. He also remembered all the blood…Koder stopped himself. He shook his head, letting the memory fade away. It was than when Rain began to talk about her own childhood and memories, they seemed so much calmer than his. He smiled as he watched her speak. It was a beautiful memory. Her mother sounded a lot like his.

“That is wonderful,” he said warmly toward her, “your mother sounds a lot like mine. She was very strong and brave though. She was the Alpha of the pack though so she had to be, my father was always away, mostly hunts and things like that. She was a beautiful wolf as well, but calm and caring, but will correct you if you do wrong.” He chuckled at the memory. “She was also rather silly herself and loved to play around like a pup. “ He only had found memories of his mother. “We left without word…oh my brother and I,” he quickly said, “I was with him up to about a year ago. I don’t even know if any of them are alive anymore....” He figured his brother was doing fine, but his mother? He shook at the thought. He didn’t even want to think about that at the moment. It was too painful. What him and his brother had caused…the pain…the…

“I think that name fits you perfectly,” he told as he flashed her smile, knowing he was going back to when she spoke about her past. He felt comfortable around her; it had been a long time since he’s felt like this. Not since he was with Wail. He thought it was odd how he was so comfortable opening up to her, even if it seemed like a normal conversation, it wasn’t something he would normally do. He didn’t like to talk about his past. It brought up too many memories that he much rather forget. He wondered what it was about her that made him feel so relax and clam? Was it just because of the circumstances that they were in? That didn’t seem to fit right. Whatever it was, it felt good, it was almost like all his worries were washed away with the rain. What this feeling was. It felt right. It was a calming feeling that he hadn’t felt in over six months. It was as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders. He turned and looked outside, watching as the rain played it soft music as it echoed into the cave and around the two of them, seemingly knowing the atmosphere was a little different than before.

[Rain]

Text | Speaking | Thoughts

“Think of it more as a battle scar. You battled those rocks hard and the scare is your trophy.” Rain looked at Koder with a warm smile on her lips, looking at him with a tender expression written on her face. "That's a beautiful way to put it," she said, still looking at him with the same tender eyes that she had earlier as he spoke those words. She knew that he really meant these words, making her blush slightly and in the way making her feel better. Turning her head back to face the exit of the cave, she saw how the rain still kept falling down heavily, and the occasional thunder and lightning often interrupted her thoughts, but she wasn't scared of them. First because she always remembered what her mother said to her and her brother, and next because she was not alone facing this merciless storm. At least she was with Koder, and somehow, it made everything better.

Wincing a little bit in pain, she looked at Koder as he commented about the storm. She knew that it was going to be a very heavy storm, and the probabilities of them having to sleep together there were becoming more and more apparent. She did not mind at all--Koder was a very handsome wolf and a very respectful one as well, so she did not have to fear being in the presence of the ebony male. Somehow, she felt safe around him, and everything seemed so natural, like if she had known him for ages. He then began to talk about his family after she had told him her story, or part of it, and she began to imagine Koder's mother. She must have been a beautiful wolf, far stronger than she could ever imagine. Her mother was very delicate at first, but gained strength and agility when she began to train and train her and Arius, her brother. Thanking her mother internally, she continued listening to Koder with all of her undivided attention. Smiling at his description of his mother, she giggled softly when he said that she liked to play like a pup. "That is beautiful," she said, "I think I would be like that with my pups," However, her smile turned into a concerned frown when he said that he did not know if they were alive anymore. 

It made her wonder as well if her parents and brother were alive after all. She began to think about them heavily. What if the rouge wolves her mother talked about had found them? What if they came back for revenge? What if they got killed? What if, when she came back, all she found were corpses? The thoughts began to make her vision blurry and her eyes began to get tear-filled, making her close her eyes and sigh very deeply. Opening her mouth a little bit, but then closing it after hesitating to speak, she thought something that she dreaded with all her might. "I hope my family is alive too..." She calmed down by filling her mind with hope, and with a very big reminder to go visit them as soon as possible.

“I think that name fits you perfectly,” Koder said, bringing her back from her thoughts about her family and making her blush. Looking at him again with a soft smile, she bowed her head a little as a sign of thankfulness towards Koder. "Thank you, Koder, you... you're so kind." she felt a rush of warmth enter her face, meaning that she was blushing once more. Koder had something that made her forget that she was in a cave surrounded by a thunderstorm, and that she had a wound covered with sand on her leg. She completely forgot how much pain she was supposed to be feeling, and instead she was left with this feeling of safety around him. Rain saw how he turned his head to see the thunderstorm outside, and she ended up doing the same thing as well. "I... I think that you were right. We will have to stay here until tomorrow. If that is no trouble to you, of course," looking at Koder, she smiled, "because I have no problems with it at all." Rain looked at him softly, her stare probably lingering a little bit more than usual; gaining quick control of herself, she looked at the storm that raged outside, slowly lowering her head until it rested on her front legs and made a soft sigh. "Good night, Koder," she said softly, as the wave of physical exhaustion began to enter her body due to the day's events. Slowly and ever so slowly, the rain began to sing her a lullaby as her eyes closed, hoping that when she woke up, Koder would still be there by her side...

This is how it feels when

you’re bent and broken

“Good night, Rain.” Koder said softly as he watched as she fell asleep. The rain was calming and Koder felt his eyes getting heavy, but he shook his head and remained awake. He didn’t want to fall asleep just yet. He turned his eyes toward Rain’s sleeping frame; she seemed so peaceful that he couldn’t help but smile. He, however couldn’t seem to relax. He hadn’t been in this situation in a long time and it just seemed odd and unfamiliar territory, even more so when he just met Rain only a few hours before. He wondered how she was able to fall asleep so quickly? The den was small therefore it wasn’t like he could scoot a few inches away to get more comfortable. It was all that he took from accidently touching her. He knew he probably was acting silly, but it just felt…weird, he couldn’t really express it in words. However, he the drossiness was beginning to get the best of him. He closed his eyes as he began to drift off to sleep…but he snapped his eyes open. He had to remain awake. He continued like that for about another hour, before sleep finally won and before he knew it he drifted off to sleep.

“Huh?” Koder’s eyes snapped open as bright light blared into the den, indicating that it was morning, which meant that he had fallen asleep. He let out a yawn as he turned toward Rain, when his body froze. Somehow when he was deep in his sleep he subconsciously moved VERY close to her, her face was only an inch away from his. He felt his body grow hot as he quickly scattered as far away as he could, taking a deep breath. He was glad that he woke up first that would have been quite embarrassing for Rain to notice. However, what bothered him more was the fact that he didn’t have any nightmares. For the past six months he always had nightmares, to the point where sometimes he would wake up in the middle of the night. But there was none. He stared at Rain’s sleeping form in confusion. What did this mean? It wasn’t as if he was in love with her or anything. He couldn’t be. He didn’t like this at all. A familiar face came into his mind as he thought about Wail and a his heart began to ache. It was getting harder for him to breath. He needed to get out.

He quietly snuck past Rain, making sure not to wake up. When he got out of the cave he turned to her and sadly whispered. “I’m sorry…” before he ran off as fast as he could, not stopping to look back once.
