It has been hours since she kept going around in circles, the sun finally setting. She knew she could use her ultimate weapon when got lost, but for now she has to learn to go back home.
Whimpering, she still did her best. The air was getting cold, as she listens to the noise of nature. The chirps of the singing birds, the rustle of the leaves, the flowing streams of a river not from where she is and the feeling of dirt beneath her.
But right now, she wants to go back home. Groaning, she climbed up a tree, sitting on one of its sturdy branches.
While looking around from up the tree, she saw something shiny from below. She went down and dug from the dirt, completely uncovering a shiny silver pendant. It was a small gold filled dragon square tablet necklace.
She bit the shiny thing, thinking it was food. Being sturdy and untasty, she gave up on attempting to eat it. She then instinctively turned around, hearing a rustle from behind the tree.
Growling, there revealed a frozen man, staring at her. It was the same man she and her pack saw just hours ago. "Crap" Aviur cursed. Of all times it has to be now?
He then saw his pendant in her hands. "Seriously??" he sighs, trying to get close to the growling woman. "Easy... I just want my belonging back" he soothes, reassuring the girl he doesn't mean any harm.
"Come on..." he exhales slowly, trying to get close, only to be attacked by her. Seeing the opportunity, he dashed through her and tried to grab the pendant that was thrown to the ground.
Too bad, the girl has quick wits, immediately outrunning him and grabbing the shiny thing before he even could touch it.
"Grr!!" she snarled, baring her fangs. As much as he admires her lovely fangs, he just wants his pendant for now. She pounced over him, baring her fangs attempting to bite him as to quickly finish her enemy.
Quickly dodging, all he could focus on was his one and only pendant. "This is tiring" he pants, the girl still unfazed. He then backed away, it looks like he has to do this tomorrow.
"I just want my pedant" he states, sighing. No break was in sight, the girl kept on attacking him until he backed away to escape her.
"I should really bring Lily tomorrow" he muttered, running away.

Rieka couldn't stand being lost anymore, she'll just have to use her last and ultimate trump card. The pendant in her mouth, she climbed up the tree. Finally arriving, she held the gold pendant in her hand and gave a mighty howl.
A few seconds later she got a howl back, it looks like they already got the message. She went back down the ground, sitting. Scaring a human away is tiring.
Minutes later her wolf dad arrived, happy that he's finally here. She can finally go back home. She rubbed her head on her wolf dad's warm fuzzy fur, grateful for everything.
~*~*~*~*~
He finally arrived back at the palace, panting a drenched in sweat. Should he bring one of the mages in the kingdom?? Nah, just Lily is fine.
He sighed, entering his room, seeing a snoring Hunter on his large fuzzy bed. It was evening and it's time for dinner. "I'll take a bath first" he sighs, preparing his clothes.
~*~*~*~*~
Rieka yawned, full of the dinner they just hunted a while ago. Eyes sleepy, she cuddled to where her wolf dad and mom are sleeping together.
Shivering, she cuddled closer. Her wolf mom noticed her shiver and started licking her cheeks, soothing her nerves.
~*~*~*~*~
"Wake up dumbass" Aviur glared, kicking Hunter in his butt. "Mrngh... Five more minutes..." he groaned, hiding his head under a pillow. "The king is also asking for you, now let's go and eat dinner" he exclaims, dragging his sleeping friend to the dining room.
"I miss Lily..." he sobs. "You'll see her after a month" Aviur sighs. "That's mean..."
-
"Good evening, Your majesty" Hunter bows down, Rogue greeting back. "You'll be going back to your kingdom tomorrow morning, yes?" the king asks, gesturing the duo to sit down and have dinner.
"Yes, your majesty. I will leave before the sun rises" he answers, taking a bite of his meal. "Alright, then send my best regards to your family" he states. "With pleasure, your majesty"
-
"Where are you going?" Hunter asks, him about to enter his friend's room to go back to sleep. "I'll take a walk and come back later" Aviur lied, knowing he'll tag along if he mentions Lily in front of him.
"Also bring me my dark cloak" he states, Hunter doing so. Seconds later he came out the room and handed Aviur his cloak. "Take care" he yawned, entering the room once more. He then pulled up his cloak's hoodie and stealthy avoided all guards and successfully went to the village.
~*~*~*~*~
"Knock knock" Lily turned left on the sound of knocks. "Lily" that familiar voice. She got up from her bed and went to open the locked door. "Aviur, what's wrong?" she asks, letting him enter her house.
"I need your help. My pendant was dropped down the ground on the forest that we went into earlier" he states, sitting on the bed after her.
"Why didn't you go back to get it?" she asked. "If I could, I would have. But the girl was there, she got my pendant before me" he explained.
"The one with the wolves?" she states, him nodding in clarification. "And so you need my help so I can distract her while you go and get your pendant back" she exclaims.
"Bingo" he sighs. "Alright. What time are we going?" she asks. "After breakfast and after I drop that guy into his carriage so he can go back to his kingdom" he states, Lily giggling.
"Alright, then just come here when you're done" she smiles. "Thanks" he smiles back.
