Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rage raised her head to look up at Amelie, she seemed different, very much so, but in a good way, a way Rage would not soon forget.
"Don't apologize...this was all my fault anyway...no need for Amelie to feel teh need to be sorry to not be able to help this one with food..." Rage said with a slight smile. Rage's tone was a bit differnet from time to time, perhaps her mind was playing again, making it hard for Rage to concentrate from time to time.

Rage listened to Amelie's words of picking her up, she was surely small enough for it, but she still worried Amelie might get hurt. But she seemed determined, and Rage would not take that away from her,
"Alright..." Rage said shifting a bit so Amelie could pick her up easily enoughm she uncurled her tail and let it lay flat behind her. Amelie knew this area well though, but, where would she bring her?
"But Amelie...where will you try..." Rage then suddenly winced as a ache stung her heart but she continued anyway, "to bring me?" she wondered.

Rage watched Amelie and smiled at Amelie saying this was not her fault, but was it so? The pup did not know what or who to believe, Amelie said it wasn't, yet her mind kept telling her otherwise. She felt Amelie nose her body, probably seeing if anything hurt and if she did indeed pick her up, if it would cause any pain.

She then listened to her speak of Phib, and healers, she wondered who each of them were. Though after she was scopped up by Amelie Rage knew she would not be able to answer any of her questions, but her mind kept rambling on about them,"Healers...Phib. Are they like Arguin? Or something else?" She wondered taking a shallow breath. Amelie did not hurt Rage nor make her flinch, Rage's body was just over tiresome and achy, her legs hung downward as Amelie held her. Even with such an odd circumstance Rage closed her eyes, from afar it would be a peculiar sight, it would look as if Amelie had harmed Rage in some way and was carrying her around for some reason. But Rage's eyes closed not from discomfort or pain, but for the first time in a while, she felt safe. Her mind whispered though Rage doubt Amelie would be able to know,
"Thank you..."

Rage watched as trees, underbrush and logs were passed. Amelie kept her in a firm yet comfortable grip, and even despite Amelie not having keen eye sight from what Rage believed, she moved about in a somewhat odd yet graceful manner, though almost scraping her ankle on a log the had just now passed.

She felt Amelie nod as if answering her questions, but how? How would she know? Perhaps it was just an odd gesture of the female...but what if she was like the healers and seers said of legend to Rage's pack...was Amelie like Arguin? If so, Ragewas not only comforted by that thought, but honored...in some sort of twisted way a child would think. But Rage did not know for sure, she could only wait and see.

Rage's hunger ate away at her stomach though her eyes held no emotion relating to it, she even tried pushing away the winces and aches her heart was causing her...so tired, she wished she was not this way. But she wondered of Phib and the others..."will they try and help too?" she wondered, not knowing the relationship between Phib and Amelie yet.

"No on can help you..."her mind spoke, bitterly and coldly.

Rage closed her eyes and took a breath, ribs hurting as she did so, she hoped they would not come back...she even prayed for it. She didn't want to see or know the past anymore, she wanted to forget all the pain.

Rage at this point was very weary, not just because she was tired and hungry, but her mouth was dry, things did not seem very well for Rage, and she admitted that to herself. Her fault though, for running so far without stopping until her legs could not carry her any further.

She heard something echo in her mind, not like the other echoes, but it was lighter, calmer...wiser perhaps? So it seemed. Rage's eyes were still closed and could only make out a few words that had echoed, was it Amelie?

Rage did not open her eyes but could feel like that has left the wooded area and now entered a more flat land area. That salty scent met her nose again, wherever it fermented from was close. It was an odd smell, not bitter sweet like teh smell that had passed over her valley home in the past, it was more salty and cool.

The pup seemed to flinch slightly as part of a hazed image entered her view in her mind, but then it faded. Perhaps they were returning...not good not good. Rage wished they would just go away, or at least not pain her as they did now.
"Amelie..." Rage asked almost silently, eyes still closed, "We almost there yes?" she asked in an odd jumble of words.

((*salute* Righty-o! *goes to find it*))
