Thread: Stand By Me (River_Wolf and BloodRedRomeo)

The day was glorious. Giant fluffy clouds floated lazily across the soft blue sky. The warm rays of the sun and a gentle breeze invited any an all to come out an enjoy the mid fall weather. Not too hot and certainly not anywhere close to cold. It was one of the last lovely days of the year. No way Kira would miss it. Not even if it meant risking running into Gregor. Kira jumped out of bed early that morning. She nearly forgot to make breakfast as she shoved her large rear into ill-fitting jeans. Anything that was big enough in the waist for her butt was way too long for her legs. It showed too. The bottoms of her jeans were frayed beyond salvation, with the hem on one leg just plain gone. Thankfully, the cool green tee she wore didn't have the same problem. Between her smaller bust and a nice sports bra, she didn't have to worry about the fit at all. Kira pulled her shoulder-length chocolate hair back into a high ponytail as her toast roasted in the toaster, humming a cheery tune as she waited. Once it popped, she slathered it with peanut butter and downed it in too bites. Why waste time on food? Especially when she could use that time to pack her hiking bag. Ten minutes later, Kira was out the door. She made it about halfway down the block when she remembered her suppressants and ran back to go quickly take them. Take two. Kira sighed. She locked her door and once more, headed down the busy street. Her apartment, while not in the center of the city, still wasn't as close as she would have liked to the edge of the sprawling metropolis. Getting to the outskirts of Leide involved two buses and a subway ride. It was worth it though. To leave the confines of the city. Kira started to hum again, unable to contain herself. At least, until it became apparent she had a few disapproving onlookers. She quickly ducked her head. Honey eyes focused on the sidewalk just ahead of her feet as she bit her bottom lip, willing her smaller frame to disappear into the crowd. Right. She wasn't in the forest yet. That wasn't allowed. At least, not by an Omega. Seen and not heard. Kira picked up her pace as her excitement turned into cloying desperation. Just think of the cabin . Kira silently told herself. It was her own secret hideaway, something she'd found and painstakingly rebuilt in high school with the help from a Beta friend. The cabin was a defunct Hunter's cabin. It sat about an hours hike outside the city limits, just on top of a tiny island surrounded on both sides by a shallow stream. The place was prone to flooding in really bad rains, which was probably the reason it was abandoned, but it was Kira's refuge. She kept all of her hunting gear there save for her hunting knife. That stayed in her backpack. Her bows and arrows, everything she used to prepare meat and process the hide, were all waiting for her at the cabin. Kira normally stuck to hunting smaller stuff. Things like fishers, foxes, rabbits, and raccoons. Maybe she'd try to find a deer today. Venison for dinner would be nice. Kira smiled to herself and continued her silent musings as she sat down on the bus stop bench and waited patiently for the bus to arrive. Last edited Dec 1, 2018
