Her packmates were having the time of their lives on the island. They felt at home; she felt a home. Though, the time would eventually come when they would need to return to their territory in Africa. With the dry season starting to creep back in, it wouldn’t be long before the carrying cybersheep would birth their young and there’d be a population boom. They had to be there to soften the blow to the life already living there. Until that time, at least, her pack could enjoy themselves.
Jackjaw had found a comfortable place to settle and was basking in the warmth of a bonfire when she overheard the passing exchange. She knew the voices well, Sickle and Saber- the mother and daughter pair in her pack. Saber was gushing about the events and getting to mingle with other fledglings her age. She chimed about how she wanted to stay on the islands for good. Sickle agreed with her.. but then reminded her that this wasn’t their pack and they had a home already.
