Before no time, the mouse was gone, not even the tiny bones left. Yes, I ate them, they are mouse bones, too tiny to make a difference in digestion, right? But, what if they aren't, I giggle, even through my tears at my thought. How silly of me to think like that. It is about this time that the sound of something moving behind me. The noises make me turn to face the source, and I am given to pause. I don't think I expected to see another young wolf like me, and I feel my heart sink a little. I wished that he had been my mother, coming back for me, but I know better than that. A child's hope I guess. The boy speaks, and I stand up, my head tilting to the side a bit as his scent washed over me, the smell sounding like tears falling and oceans breaking, like a family laughing and playing together. I tilted my head at the salty tang of the music in my ears, my brows furrowing a little in my confusion. "No, I am not alright...I am lost. My mommy left me here, for whatever reason. I think that maybe she didn't want me anymore..." I state everything matter-of-factly, but the tears in my dark eyes betray me for what I feel. No matter, it isn't like she cared, for whatever reason. Maybe I was just too weird for her, though I am not sure what makes me weird, maybe it was because I knew too much for my age.

"I am Riopat. It is nice to meet you." I smile, my pain forgotten for the time being as I lift my lithe frame from the ground and turn to face him. I let my tail wag, my ears and face held friendly. I want to wipe the sound of sorrow out of his smell, I don't like it being there. I am miserable enough. "Do you know any games to play? I want to keep my mind off of my family issues..." I smile brightly at him, dipping my front half into a play bow. Please, just play with me. I think this is maybe why I am here, because he seems like he needs a friend, and I need a friend, so...why not?
