Small paws bounded against the warm forest floor as the small pup Paige decided to explore, she hadn't been out much since meeting the other apprentices in the pack clearing. it was a beautiful day to go exploring though and for being only seven months old the tiny canine had yet to explore all of the pack territories even though her mother had told them to stay close to the den and not go out exploring on there own something had seemed to be calling the small tri-colored female taking her to a place unknown and unfamiliar.

The land was beautiful though it was covered in different colored leaves that were scattered about on the ground "Wow" Paige said quiet astonished. The amber eyed pup looked around in a circle before moving forward a little to focused on the beautiful scenery and unaware that she was getting close to a rock. It was to late to notice though as Paige tripped stumbling forward and attempting to catch herself but failing horribly and so she ended up face first on the ground. "Ooof. Hey! What's the big idea?" the tiny canine called out unaware that it was not someone who had tripped her but something. Using her bodies strength Paige pulled herself to her feet shaking off some of the dirt from her pelt and spitting some of it out. 


"Yuck" she said making a funny face afterwards, the cool summer breeze came sweeping up some of the leaves and carrying them around the area "Paige" the tiny female heard, it hadn't sounded like anything she had ever heard before which startled her "W-Who's there? W-what do y-you want f-from me?" she began to stutter as she heard the call of her name once again but louder this time. Panic filled the small pups eyes she wanted to run, hide, tell her mother and father about this but something told her to stay listen to what this thing had to say. Suddenly everything went quiet tiny heart pounded against the pups chest startling the canine more, her heart had never raced so fast in her life. Shaky breaths left the apprentices maw before she finally called out a little louder than she meant to out into the open "What do you want from me?!?" at this point she was convinced that she was going insane and that all of her knowledge would be stripped from her within a matter of seconds.

"I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves. I know a song that get's on everybody's nerves and this is how it goes.." she sang as she walked along the pack clearing. She had been bored of this area, but knew the punishment for leaving the grounds she was told to stay on. All Apprentices were told to stay here, because it was not safe to be in the outer pack lands. Anything could happen to them. But as she played amongst herself, she smelled the scent of a female pup not in the pack clearing. Stiffening her body, she looked around to see if any parents had noticed this. The coast was clear. Lowering her tiny onyx nose to the ground, Kida sniffed the trail for the female. On her way, she tucked her tail close to her body, making herself as small as possible and slipped away. When she were about  twenty feet from the pack clearing, she giggled with excitement. Her little tail wagged as she moved about on her quest. As the scent grew stronger, she thought about howling. She knew the consequences would be far worse than celebrating such a victory.

The woods changed quickly and soon she found herself in a sea of leaves. The reds, oranges, and yellows were so stunning and different in the summer. They were colors she had never even seen before. No green in sight. "Woah.." she said to herself in amazement, almost forgetting the reason she had traveled here. Quickly she was brought back to the purpose when she heard a loud shout. "What do you want from me?" it asked from behind a bush. Kida looked at the foliage, unable to see the little wolf on the other side. Tucking her ears and lowering her head, she charged through the bush and headed straight for Paige with a "rawr!" She came to a halt just inches from Paige and smiled as she slid on the floor before her. "Hi, I'm Kida!" She looked up from the ground to see a white wolf. Swallowing her saliva, she knew she would be in trouble if her parents found out about this little adventure. Especially after trying to scare the Alphas' pup. "Oh... um, hi...." she said as she gave a cheesy grin to Rose.

Tiny heart still thundering against her chest Paige took a few step backwards as she heard someone else talking before colliding with the large body letting out a small yelp before spinning on her heels to face the snow white female. Still startled and frighted Paige couldn't seemed to get the words that she wished to speak out of her maw, the small pup recognized the fae Rose from the gathering that her mother had called back in spring when the white female was ranked up to guardian. Paige tried to say something but it just came out as a sputtered mess of I's and some other gibberish that she couldn't even understand. The tiny canine swallowed harshly knowing that if Rose told her mother about this little adventure on her own without the company of an adult or her brothers that she would be in a load of trouble.

Just as the tiny pup gathered enough courage to speak properly to the older wolf that currently stood in front of her another sounds startled her making her small body tense and jerk forwards slightly another minor yelp flying from her muzzle as she turned to look at the one who had crashed through the bushes letting out a rawr, Paige relaxed slightly as she realized it was the pup that she had met at the pack clearing Kida. The one who spoke of the eight legged monster with a million eyes, which had really turned out to be a spider but it was still a frightening thing to hear about and see.

Once again gathering up as much courage as she could Paige spoke "M-My Name Is P-Paige Miss Rose, umm y-yes I am the d-daughter of Alphess Quinn" the small fae stuttered ears folding back against her skull as her shyness began to kick in. The small canine glanced over towards Kida managing to pull a small nervous smile "I-It's nice to m-meet you Kida"

Carefully moving to her paws, she stood as tall as she possibly could. "My brothers scare me all the time. So I thought it was my turn to scare somebody. It was kinda fun ding the scaring and not being the scared one. I can see why the boys like it." She wagged her tail excitedly as she listened to them speak. It was obvious the one pup was very scared or shy. Perhaps Kida had been a little bit too scary? Whatever the case was, she looked to Rose with wide eyes. "I would love to go exploring! Maybe we could pick herbs and I could bring them back to the pack. I need to start my training as soon as possible, but I haven't even met a healer yet... So I would be going all off of what I think is right. If you want to break your leg, I can try to fix it. I think that would be fun. What do you want to be when you grow up, Paige? Are you gonna be an Alphess?" She looked to the both of them, her tail still wagging behind her. The excitement was just too much and she could barely contain herself.
