❝Get in my way, all you can do is pray...Stand in firm, lie down and learn...I am like no other you will know.❞
Wandering close to the sitter den, Layla watched the area around them starting to wonder how many were effected by that horrid disease. Even worse she had yet to really leave the pups for long after everything had started, not wanting them to be effected. But alas some pups did die but at least some where able to make it through the tragedy and become stronger because of it. With her stomach grumbling Layla sat herself down near the den entrance, watching the movements of the pack closely. Sure she wanted to go get food, but for now she would wait and protect the next generation for Mujihi wolves. Looking back towards the den as her stomach growled towards her once more, she tried to convince herself to stay put. Though Seca could surely watch them for a short while or even Béline could, so she might go and get some food for herself.
With a whine she got to all fours and called back towards her sitter friends. "I am going to get food." And with that she trotted off away from the den and towards the kill pile, doubting anything would be there. And so was such, no food was there that was worth her trying to eat. This meant Layla must go out and hunt for herself, which she hadn't done in quite some time now. Turning herself towards the woods she started to trot off through the freshly green growing blades of grass, her eyes and ears scanning for signs of anyone near by. While she went towards the area where food would be found, her mind wandered some to thoughts of Phoenix wondering how he fared through everything. She hadn't seen much of him as of late, since she was so stubborn about leaving the pups for any amount of time. But it seemed the horrid foaming of the mouth disease had passed and that meant it would be safer for her to start heading out and about once more.
Looking around she noticed she neared the area that she would hunt, her noise taking in the scents around her. Lowering her body she looked through the grass and caught sight of a small meal that was worth trying to hunt. Staying lower she watched the small rabbit eat peacefully a few yards a head of her, it blissfully unaware of her presence. At least for the time being that was, for as Layla got closer to the prey it seemed to start to become more wary of it's surroundings. Forcing her to stay still once more until she had a chance to attack and catch the little furry beast off guard. Laying in wait she stayed as still and quiet as possible, her chance soon appearing before her. With it seen she lunged forward towards the rabbit and gave chase, it just getting out of her reach at the last second. Keeping a quick pace she followed the rabbit, her teeth soon meeting fur covered flesh and the taste of blood entered her mouth.
The so called hunt was a success for Layla, which in ways made her proud of herself. Sure she was no hunter, but at least she could provide her own meals at this point. She felt as if she had truly started to grow up from when she first came to Mujihi and became a warrior. Even now though she was mocked for becoming a sitter, she still felt a sense of pride. Her thoughts wandered from topic to topic as her teeth ripped into the flesh of the rabbit, starting to eat at the meat just below the fur. Enjoying her meal in silence, Layla soon was unaware of her surrounding and became in a blissful state of where her hunger was being satisfied. Laying quietly on the ground she ate, thoughts of her past and what was to become of her future ran through her mind. Even thoughts of having a mate came to her from time to time, but she was quick to push them away. She feared if she ever was to try and find herself a mate, that they would reject her for her childish antics. Though with that thought her mind went to Fell and then Phoenix, knowing they had put up with her at one point. With a growl to herself she went back to eating her meal and ignoring her surroundings.
