"I was looking for someo-" Selena cut herself off as she realized what she was about to say. Aircrest wasn't just 'someone'. He was her first and only love, though she was quickly losing her grasp on the hope of ever finding him. "...My mate," she went on more slowly after a short pause. "I was looking for my mate. We'd gotten separated somehow...I assume the humans had already gotten him, or he managed to escape...because I haven't seen him since." Her eyes clouded over with memories for a second. She might never see him again...he could still be on their home island for all she knew.
Alira eyed the female raptor wordlessly, unable to offer verbal comfort because she had already had nothing to lose when the humans had come. Her pack had kicked her out, her brother's life had been ended...She was, technically, ready for a new start. If I'd known "a new start" meant this... The allosaur shook her head, chasing the thought from her mind. Beggars can't be choosers I guess.
