I was beginning to become more comfortable as I noticed the girl seemed to accept my presence. The possibility of making friends stayed alive and that made me excited. My mind couldn't help but wander a little bit. What were friends like? Oh my mother had told me so many stories of her friends! Even introduced me to a few! They seemed nice. I'd never seen my mother smile so much till she was with her friends. I hope my friends are like hers, make me happy. I also hope to make them happy too. They seemed like such a nice thing. I could show them all my games and they could show me there's. Even if they couldn't stay with me all the time, I wouldn't be alone anymore! I think thats what I craved more than anything else, company.

When I asked what pack they were from, Shiloh puffed up with pride. I stared at her quizzically, I didn't know why she was acting like that. But then again I wasn't in a pack, so I didn't understand how much pride wolves had in their pack. ""I am from Diveen. I'm a Princess." She said in a royal tone of voice. I blinked in surprise. I had heard of Diveen from my mother when she told me of the packs. I couldn't remember much about it though, it sounded like one of the packs that recently went to war with another. I think the wolves called themselves angels, whatever that was supposed to signify. On top of that i'd never met a princess before. I couldn't help but squeak in excitement, containing myself enough to stop from jumping around. "You're really a princess? Thats really cool! My mother used to tell me stories about princesses, I never thought i'd meet one," I said, excited. I could become friends with a princess! But I had to play it cool! So I contained myself, my tail still wagging.

When she nods, agreeing to let me stay I smile happily. I watched as she went to rub her muzzle with her paw and accidentally smacked Nogitsune on the head. I giggled as he pulled his ears back and nipped at her paw before he rested against it. Shiloh grinned and that made me happy, knowing she seemed to be relaxed with me around, even though I knew I could be a little overwhelming. "What is it like to be a loner? Where is your mom? she asks, clearly curious. I felt a little sadness at her question for my mother, but I didn't let it show. "Life as a loner is lonely sometimes. You have to hunt for yourself and protect yourself. You also have to find a place to sleep for the night, cus sometimes other loners will take your nest," I admitted with a shrug. It wasn't such a bad life, could be better, but I lived it the best I could.

I opened my mouth to answer her second question when Nogitsune piped up. “My mother leaves me alone to!” He exclaimed while looking at me. I frowned slightly in sadness as he continued. "She comes back but does not stay long so I get to go explore.” He says excitedly at the fact he gets to explore. It makes my heart hurt at his words but I allow a small smile to grace my lips as he stands and scampers under my legs, looking over me before he goes back to Shiloh, crawling over her paws. My tail slows slightly as I keep the pain from showing on my face."What kinds of stuff dose your mother teach you?" He asked, but it sounded like it was directed to both of us. A sad smile came across my lips as I looked down and thought about my mother. "My mother wasn't really my mother. She found me when I was little and rescued me. She taught me all sorts of things: games to play, how to hunt, how to run, all the stuff I needed to survive as a loner. She died recently, so it's just me now... I said trailing off slightly. I shook my head and cleared the sadness and looked back up with a smile. I was proud of her and I was also brave and strong because she had raised me.

I watched with amusement as the small pup seemed to grow bored of Shiloh and scurried over to me again, putting his paws on my legs in an attempt to climb over me. He even nipped at my fur making me giggle. I sat down so I wasn't towering over him. I gently and playfully nudged him with my nose, yipping encouragingly to him. I loved playing, and he appeared to as well. "We play?" he asked while looking back to Shiloh. "Shiloh teach us to catch squirrel in tree?" I raised my brow curiously and looked up to Shiloh. "You catch squirrels in the trees? I asked skeptically. "My mother never taught me that...." I said, wondering if Nogitsune was simply being an innocent puppy and not understanding her words, or if Diveen wolves really did know how to climb trees.
