"None of my family loved. I was chased out by my mom when I was a pup. No one did anything to stop her." Rhyder said. The anger started to rise in him but he quickly pushed it down. There was no reason and no point in getting mad.

"All your siblings were pups too." Inka insisted before sighing and licking his cheek, "But I know that must have been hard for you, being alone for so long and being so young." Inka said softly.

"It wasn't fun. Watching my siblings just sit there acting like what our mother was doing and saying was right." Rhyder said.

Inka nodded with her ears slightly back, "I know...." She murmured softly before padding a little quicker, "But she'd trying now, right?" She whispered. She knew it was hard for him. A pup out alone, it would never had been easy, and she could see him getting riled up about it.

"Come on its getting dark. We should head back." Rhyder said. He turned around to go back the way they came.

Inka nodded with slightly furrowed brows before turning around. She kept on walking for a short while before stopping on the spot.

rhyder kept going a few paces before noticing that inka had stopped. "What? Whats wrong?" He asked confused and worried. He started looking around trying to see what caused her to stop.

Inka twitched her ears slightly before shaking her head, "No, its nothing." She murmured before padding onward again.

"Dont lie to me. Tell me whats wrong." Rhyder said in a slightly demand I ng tone.

Inka shook her head with a small huff, "nothing... I just thought of something." She murmured as she picked up pace again.
