The antaint packs.

The water was cold, but I gasped for a different reason. This was amazing.

((tanner))

The first gold seron used this place as her home.

(Abbie)
No... way....

((tanner))

The marks from her claws are still there

(Abbie)
"We should make this our hideout"

((tanner))

"oh yes we should."

(Alright. we need to establish what happens next. Meed to introduce the child..)

((yeah. we need to get jack into the picture))

(Do you want me to skip?)

((yes))

That week together passed in a dizzy dreamlike whir then Slaincor and I were back to leading as normal. The year passed by: Tanner and Abbie both grew more than we could have imagined. The four of us and our pack all lived in happiness...or what he and I had believed was happiness.
One evening in late May, he and I were watching the stars in the yellow medow...

"you know, there still seems to be something missing"

"It won't be that way for long you know."

I smiled. "it might be. they might decide to drive us crazy and wait several generations to come out"

A lighthearted laugh escaped me. "I don't think so. If he is your son as much as he is mine, the poor child doesn't stand a change of having patience."

"so you are saying... ten seconds?"

"Maybe. I'd give him a week at the maximum."

I laughed. "or he might just roll his egg and get around that way. my cousin did that for a while.. then she can bored after a few days and broke out. "

"No, I think he'll be curious to see the world." I rolled over onto my stomach to look at him eye to eye. "What do you think he'll look like?"

"I think he will look like you"

"Maybe" I said smiling. "But I hope he has all the courage you do"

"Whatever he is like, he will be our child. "

That sounded both exciting and terrifying. 'our child'

"he will also be, the next leader of the gold serons"

This scared me. Being leader had brought so much heartbreak and sadness into my life... Then I suddenly jumped.
