Still in wolf form she perked up her ears as the last scuffled of the day took place. This was completely nuts on her end.  What exactly did Dax mean she didn't need to hold back so much? Was she really holding back. She shook her head in distaste as Dax 'punished' Hekhem for his outburst. The strange thing is he seemed to enjoy it.<br/><br/>The ancient one had a real look of disdain on his face, but this wasn't his pack. It really wasn't hers and when he turned to leave she went after him.<br/><br/><em>Wait</em><br/><br/>Her paw prints barely left impressions in the ground as she trotted lightly after the ancient one. Did he really mean to leave? Where would he go? She figured by morning this would all blow over and perhaps they could all forget it ever happened, but who was she kidding?  She slowly caught up to him stopping just as his side as they neared the cabin.<em>You don't mean that do you....leaving just because us pups are being hard headed?</em>His little speech on survival echoed over and over again in her head. Okay for one she never thought, not even on the day she was born that shit like this would ever happen. Claire had a pretty crappy history and she still yearned for the chance to get back at the alpha who bit her, but clearly she wasn't strong enough, not ready.<br/><br/><em>Hekhem....let me go with you.</em>
