Amaranth's eyes glittered as she looked upon him and he felt his soul rise just a little as he bashfully bent his head to her welcome, biting his lip with a smile and a low wag of his tail, his ears were flattened against his head as he felt his body wriggle with excitement in her prescence. He came closer and pressed up against her side in greeting before a voice came from nearby and the boy pulled away from Ama and turned to face another.

It was a packmate he hadn't met before but they seemed friendly enough so Glitch woofed a welcome greeting to her and closed his eyes with his widening smile. Glitch wriggled his nose at the acidic smell radiating off the lake but before he could ask any questions a voice rang loud through his head and he dropped to the ground, his paws flying to his ears to cover the appendages in hiding from the strange words.

Suddenly he understood those words... Suddenly an image appeared in his mind and he perked up, his stomach still firmly pressed to the ground as he lifted his chest and head to look from Amaranth to the wolf Ama had called Fleetwood. His tail curled tightly around his blue haunches, the staticky pattern on his spine standing on end and indigo children flickered from one wolf to the other.

Go... Echoed in his head, a reverberation through his skull as he blinked in confusion of what exactly just happened. Though his lips didn't create the words his eyes did...

What the fuck just happened...?
