Just when they were starting to think that nothing would happen and they had just wasted their time, they heard footsteps approaching. Fast. right after that, they could also hear the sound ad paws hitting the ground at a fast pace. For them to have been able to hear them so clearly meant that they were close. They then noticed an abnormality in the situation.
They could not pick up any scent.
With this realization, Lazarus looked at Dana and Kora standing next to him. "Take her and go inside." He said to Dana holding her hand in his. "Stay low, I'll come for you," he said and kissed her knuckles. "Take care of yourselves."
Dana was hesitant, she didn't want to leave him but she knew that Kora should be kept hidden and it would lighten the weight on his shoulder if she gave him some space. "Don't worry, he will be fine," Kora said to Dana who then nodded and left with her into the pack house.
