Over in the mountains, Flister stared into the darkness of the night from her cave, wings tucked close to her to defend from chilly mountain winds. Her blank expression drew her sister close, a white and grey she wolf with underdeveloped black wings. "Are you alright, Flister?" She asked quietly, laying down beside her. Flister shrugged, sitting up and fixing her eyes on the moon and the stars. "Damn those men, Ainsly. They constantly harass us for our fur and wings." She bristled, standing up and padding to the mouth of the cave. "Man took Huttser's friend's pay today, and for what?" Before her sister could answer, she jumped from her high cave, soaring down the cliff side.
Spreading her feathered wings, she hit the wind fast, shooting into the air. Her ears were full of the sound of rushing air as she flew into the clouds.

Landing where the trap was, she saw the blood stained into the ground and the fur stuck in the gears.
Raising her lips in a snarl, she paced around the trap, sniffing. "Time for some payback." She muttered.

Huttser was roused at his spot at guard duty by a quiet rustling. Opening his vibrant yellow eyes, he glanced around and bristled. "Come out, show yourself." He barked. nothing emerged. It was almost daylight, and he wanted to rouse some other wolves. But he was curious.
He could have sworn he heard a whisper.
Wondering, he called quietly out again. "...dad? Flister? Fern?" He said. No response. The rustling continued, seeming to get closer.
