Noble's paws touched the earth, it had been months since she had made it to land and now explored. At times, she would refuse to go near waters that raged simply because she was afraid to be swept away and then never see the light of day again. She wasn't so afraid of still waters, in fact she quite enjoyed swimming in lakes or jumping about in puddles. Her forest green eyes darted back and forth as she continued her walk. She had woken up bright and early, hoping to find some herbs that would help with her stress and make it easier for her to sleep at night. She tilted her head as she realized that she was indeed very lost. Her paws marched forward and her tail hung behind her, swaying between her legs. Her small white body moved through the trees as quickly as possible. She didn't think about simply following her own scent back to her den and then restarting. She was cold but she loved the cold weather and how it gave her the shivers. Her body swung forward with every step and every thought. Oh... why did I go and get lost? She thought quietly to herself, her green eyes searching the area for any sign of where she may be. Her ears flickered and her mind went blank as she heard something that completely startled her. It was the sound of rushing water. She slowly approached the raging river, her green eyes settled on confusion. How long have I been walking? Her mind swirled just like the raging water and she slowly approached it. Her heart beat within her chest. Thump. Thump. Thump. She blinked slowly and tried to breathe calmly. She stared at the water and frowned, turning quickly to walk away. Her paws slipped against the slick ground and into the raging water she went. A howl of distress escaped her maw as the ice water pierced her skin and pelt. It was amazingly cold and she disliked it. Her paws swirled back and forth, trying to push herself back to the land she so loved. She wasn't deeply in the water, just a few feet away. But the water was too strong and she couldn't push herself onto the land. "Help Me!" She cried out to anybody whom may hear her. Her green eyes blinked the water away and she pushed her paws forward, though she wasn't strong enough to pull herself onto the land. She felt something collide with her body and she was pushed deeper into the river. Her side ached and she closed her eyes tightly and then opened them. She searched for something to land her paws on and she found it. A boulder in the middle of the raging water. She managed to pull herself upon it and stand there awkwardly. She was soaked to the bone and had no way to escape the raging waters that splashed against her safe haven. She twisted slightly to look around her, trying to figure out if there was a way to get herself back onto land. She spotted a log on the land nearby, but it would be of no use unless she could wedge it between two boulders and walk across. But there was no other boulders and she had no way of getting the log out into the water with her. She hung her head slightly, ears pressing against her skull. Guess I have to jump as far as I can then... She shook her head and frowned. Her side twinged with pain and she finally looked down at it. Her eyes widened as she realized that she was bleeding ever so slightly. She blinked slowly, trying to ignore the blood for the moment as she needed to get herself away from the cold waters and dried off.

The brown wolf walked silently through a worn down path in the woods. His emerald green eyes continuously searched side to side for any sign of danger and his ears were perked so that he could hear any possible calls of distress. It had been a few days since his encounter with Lalani and still he had time wrapping his head around everything that happened. She had stuck her nose into his fur while he was sleeping and of course, he defended his self when he woke up. But she hadn’t been there to cause trouble, she had only wanted to check on him and make sure he was alright. That was when the pup decided that with her, he had a safe place and that he would continue to go back to that safe spot after each excursion of his.

He had been walking for at least an hour or two when he suddenly halted, hearing what he had been waiting for, despite hoping he wouldn’t. It was from a female, and she was clearly in distress. Since he didn’t know what kind of trouble she was in, he wasted no time before sprinting in the direction he heard the call. Around trees and through thick brush he continued running, not willing to slow down in case she was in a life or death situation. He breathed heavily but he had long before grown use to running long distances, after all, it was how his pack moved.

Once he made his way out of the trees, he slowed to a hurried walk beside a raging river. With his nose to the ground, he tried to catch the scent of the female and he was relieved to find it was still strong. Following it, it wasn’t long before he spotted her and a frown immediately took the place of his previous blank face. She was trapped out in the river and appeared to be standing on a large rock. She also looked to be less than a year older than he was and that was enough to really make him want to help. He skirted the edge of the water trying to come up with an idea or a plan when he spotted a fallen log. Quickly he moved over to it and started pushing it from behind. It took some effort but little by little he was able to push it over to the water. Once on the edge, he turned it long ways and pushed it into the water against the rock that she was standing on and then moved out of the way. “Walk across it,” he said with an encouraging tone.

To her surprise, her call for help was answered quickly and by a young male whom seemed to understand her situation. She watched as he pushed the log and it amazingly fell in place firmly. She hesitated and look at the male cautiously, her emerald eyes searching him. "Walk across it." The male spoke encouragingly to her and so she darted across the log. At the end of the log she leaped through the air and landed on the earth. The fallen log broke away with the raging water and she slowly pulled herself farther away from the raging water. Her pelt was soaked and she felt awfully cold. Her green eyes sparkled slightly, a thank you nod towards the male and then she slowly stood up. "Thank... you." She squeaked out the words and slowly shook her pelt free from the water and blood. She looked down at her side, blood going down her side in a small drizzle. It was nothing serious but she felt shaken and wanted to take care of it as soon as she could. She shifted slightly and tilted her head to the side, green eyes watching the male. She smiled weakly and took a few steps once again. Her paws felt weak and wobbly. She swayed and dug her claws into the ground in order to stable herself.

Everything swayed with her body, her paws shifting as if she were drunk. She stumbled and tripped, falling onto her side with a small yelp. She took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes, trying to think as to what she could use that would take away her dizziness. She wasn't sure if it was because she was shaken or because of the loss of blood she had to deal with. She felt guarded and shy, like she couldn't bring forth words to ask for help on finding herbs or getting dry from the cold she felt. Noble slowly closed her eyes, knowing it wouldn't help her. She licked her ebony nose and tried to stand up again, a cold wind blew against her pelt and she shivered. She was meant to withstand the cold, but not when she was soaked to the bone. She collapsed again, her eyes fluttering shut as her body pulled her into darkness. To her distress, she had passed out from the sudden drop in body temperature and the wound that was on her side. The wound was just a scrape, but blood loss no matter how small, was still pretty dangerous. Her whole body shivered while her mind pressed deeper into a dream-like state.

Carefully, the brown colored male rotated the log and pushed it into the raging water, watching hopefully as it lodged its way between the rock and the shore. He knew it wouldn’t stay there forever but it was, at least, stable and sturdy enough to quickly walk across it. Only once it was in place did he move back to give the white she wolf some personal space. He saw her hesitate and for a brief second he wondered if she was going to move at all. He stifled the hurrying growl that wanted to escape his clenched muzzle and offered her another reassuring smile. Finally, she ran across the log and lex couldn’t help but chuckle lightheartedly to himself as she lept through the air. He watched as she brought herself further onto the shore as the log broke free, suddenly washed away downstream. He nodded in response with a simple and kind, “you’re welcome.” Once she stood and shook off, he frowned as his eyes caught sight of the blood on her side, having failed to notice it until then. He knew it was nothing too serious but that didn’t mean it wasn’t worrisome still. The white she wolf tried to walk but her body swayed unsteadily in protest and Lex growled softly, wanting her to lie down and rest.

It wasn’t until she tripped that the pup’s ears perked and he rushed to her side, worried even more about her than he had already been. Her circled her once, trying to make sure that there really only was one spot that she was bleeding from and that there wasn’t another hidden wound. However, to his relief, he was unable to find anything else and he relaxed slightly. He stood guard over her, wishing he knew the things that the healers in his pack knew so that he could better help, but he didn’t want to risk doing something wrong and making things worse. His ears pinned when she tried to stand again and he growled quietly as her stubbornness once more made her body protest and shake unsteadily. Having just gotten to her feet, she fell again, this time her eyes closing as her physical form gave into the exhaustion that it was trying to fight. With a soft sigh, he lay beside her, laying his head over her protectively. He would not leave her side until she was stronger and able to fend for herself.
