Jacques perspective:
she had been traveling for so long, her paws ached and her fur itched but she couldn't stop now, she was so close to her father's pack territory, that's the only place that she and the pups were safe, who knew, maybe those wolves were following them... hopefully Ayla had made a good excuse. She padded up the nearby hill, knowing that at the top she would be able to see the lake. The pups followed close behind her as she quickened her pace, Almost there… she told herself as she stopped and looked out at the lake at the top of the hill, the wind brushed against her paws and the pups underbellies. Jacque tasted the air and listened to the lapping of waves on the shore. The gray water was flooded with color as the sun rose higher over the hills. It stretched ahead so far that the trees on the distant shore were nothing more than a greenish blur, and curved around the marshy land in front of them. Jacque let her gaze shift towards the pups who were now standing beside her in a group, saw that most of their eyes still gleamed with excitement, all apart from Lunar. Her eyes held the emotion of sorrow and fright, Jacque wanted to ask what was wrong and parted her jaws to speak, but before she could talk one of the pups cut her off. “Are we there yet?! Are we there yet?! Are the there yet?!” Kayan squealed and bounded around in a circle. She sighed and silenced the pup with a flick of her tail across the pups back. “Almost.” Jacque touched her nose to the flank of the pup, gently rasping a sandpaper like tongue across Kayans back. It was obvious the pups were about to explode with excitement, still Lunar seemed worried, but Jacque brushed it off, she was probably just frightened of the vast lake at the foot of the hill, it was different to anything these pups had ever seen before, the only water they got was from the river that trickled down the Baer Bluffs where they had lived before that wretched pack had ruined everything. Suddenly a thought popped into her mind, What would the pack have done to her if they found out she lied? She began to get lost in thoughts about her friend and if she was safe after she had given her the pups so they wouldn't be taken away… What if they DID find out?! What if they killed her?!?! What if- “Jacque! Can we go? Can we go? Can we go?!” Colhe squeaked as he jumped up. “I miss mother” Lunar whined softly. Jacque slowly shook her head. “I promise you will see her again” she said gently as she rasped her tongue over Lunars flattened ears affectionately. “Lets goooooo!!” Colhe began bounding down the hill as Jacque ran after him, Lunar, Atlas, Kayan and Alistar followed closely behind, squealing with excitement.
