Thalia stared at Wolfwren in surprise. "But Wolfwren," she barked, still standing still, "They are just..." Then she remembered what the were. "Oh, ravens....RUN is right!"
She bounded after Wolfwren, toward the pack borders. Panting, she continued to run, not daring to look back at the ravens. Wolfbane's little friends.

Wolfwren looked back to see if Thalia was coming, when she assured herself that Thalia was indeed coming, Wolfwren put on aburst of speed. She looked up as she ran, see the great dark mass that confirmed her submission that the ravens were still flying directly above them, Wolfwren herd a snap of a twig that reassaured Wolfwren, Thalia was still behind her,
As Wolfwren neared the boundries, the birds swerved to the right up and over the mountains.

Panting, Thalia skited to a halt behind her best friend. "Thank Tor, that's over," she whispered, lost in thought. Why were the ravens there? What were they doing? she thought, confused. And, most importantly, why were there a lot of them? And why were they all headed in one direction?
Shaking her head, she looked at Wolfwren, but not directly into her eyes, of course. She shivered when she saw fear in her friend's eyes. "Wolfwren, are you ok?" she asked hesitantly after she'd caught her breath.

Wolfwren didn't hear Thalia question, she was thinking. as the birds passed over she felt as though she had been searched, her brain felt stangly worn out,
"Wolfwren are you ok?" " oh, sorry, what?," Wolfwren said in a strangly far away voice,

Cocking her head to the right side, Thalia repeated, "I said, 'Wolfwren, are you ok?'" Wolfwren did not look well. Scenting the air, Thalia could smell the fear of her friend and herself. They were both scared, like something was about to jump out and scare them.
Shivering Thalia's mind could not help but wonder off on its own. Her mind was going a-mile-a-minute, trying to find out why the raven had flow over them. It freighted Thalia so much, all she wanted to do was lay down and hide.

" oh sorry, yeah i'm fine" Wolfwren looked down. I hate lying she thought, "Hey, there is a hole big enough for us to fit in do you want to rest down there?, we could calm down and have a sleep," Wolfwren looked at Thalia, she looked as frightened as Wolfwren, "come on",

Padding carefully, Thalia followed Wolfwren into the makeshift den. Wolfwren was right it was large enough for the both of them. Looking at Wolfwren again, she hoped that her friend would be alright. The white varg looked kinda shaken, like Thalia herself. Without progress, Thalia tried to compose her face, so that she would not appear shaken. However hard she tried, she could not help but think about those ravens....
After circling and laying herself down for a nap, Thalia turned to Wolfwren. "Hey, Wolfwren," she barked hesitatingly, slowly. "I'm scared...." Thalia began to whimper and she hid her head under her paws. I'm such a coward, she thought and closed her eyes.

"oh Thalia, don't be scared, I'm sure those ravens were just going......um....... somewhere", maybe to a gathering a raven gathering, that is a intesting thought, but i doubt it is true why would ravens want to gather any-were?, thought Wolfwren wondering what the look on Thalia face would be if she heard the the words "raven gathering"
she decide to lie, well she didn't want to make her friend any more scared then she was at the moment anyway, she tried again " maybe they were going to a good place for food" she hoped Thalia didn't think she was being mean or trying to sound grown up. she looked at Thalia, she looked shaken and tied, "lets get some sleep"

Thalia nodded, still quite shaken. She hoped that Wolfwren was right about what she'd voiced. The ravens....they were looking for food. Yes, food... she tried to reassure herself. A shiver raced down her spine. To her friend, she said in a shaky voice, "Alright, Wolfwren. I hope you are right." She paused for a second. "Sleep is good. Yes, we both need sleep."
Closing her lids, she willed sleep to over take her. After a few heartbeats, Thalia rolled to her other side, uncomfortable. Then, not satisfied, she curled up into a ball. But the more she tried to sleep the less tried she became. So, eyes narrowing but conscious, Thalia watched Wolfwren's steady even breathing as the night drifted deeper and sleep still did not over come Thalia.

dreams flitted through Wolfwrens mind of birds and vargs and who knows what,
she woke up, pretending to be asleep she watched Thalia twist and turn, she oved toward her trying to comfort her, she felt better but her head was a little groggy and somtimes a strage feeling of emptymess filled her mind,
she touned over hoping that Thalia would settle down so they could both have a good nights sleep,
sleep toke over again.

To Thalia's relief, sleep soon did over take her. She lay, sleepily soundlessly, next to her best friend. The makeshift den was rather small but it would have to do. At least they were warm and dry and, of course, away from the ravens.
After a few heart beats later, dreams dd haunt her. Dream about Wolfbane. Wolfbane eating pups. Wolfbane plotting against the other vargs with his ravens. The traitorous ravens whom feed off Thalia's dreams.
Thalia jolted awake. Heart bounding, she shivered. Quickly getting up, Thalia bolted out of the little den. Fenris's eye was high in the sky, warming her, drifting away her dark thoughts of ravens. It was morning.

Wolfwren woke up to find the warm space were she was sure minutes ago her best friend was sleeping, she left the cave, Thalia was standing in the new morning light, her white face bathed in sunlight,
" it is such a beatiful morning, i could sit here forever'

As the warm sun hung high in the sky, Thalia looked out, around their surroundings. Her ears did not notice as her best friend approached-- she flinched. Snapping her head to look, she saw, to her surprise, that it was only Wolfwren. She sighed as she listened to her friend say something her ears did not catch. It was something like how beautiful today was.
Incoherent for the moment, she mused, not knowing exactly what she was saying, "Lovely, is it not?" It was lovely, indeed. The sun high in the air, the dazzling blue hued sky above with its ivory hued, big and puffy, clouds. It was dazzling, and she sat still, admiring its wonderfulness.

Wolfrewn smiled, Thalia had not heard her, oh well, " yes, the sun is so warm, the day could go on forever and i couldn't regret it" she got up and walked ten paces forward and looked back, Thalia was still siting there, she haddn't noticed that Wolfwren had got up, " come, we should be getting going"
( no worries )

Thalia scrutinized Wolfwren intently as her friend padded off a few paces, then stopped. Ears perking up, she was determined to catch what her friend said this time. Thankfully, her highly sensitive and perceptive ears did. Smiling, she jumped to her paws then and strolled over to Wolfwren slowly, taking her time.
"Yeah, we should get going," she said, bliss shining in her eyes. "We have a long day ahead of us." After beginning to tread off, she turned to look at Wolfwren again, and added, teasing, "Are we nearly there?"
