Lupy whined, then barked, moving closer to her. Kestrel put a hand on him to soothe him, making sounds rather than speech. She didn't want to affect what Jube was doing.

As it grew more intense, the cub growled and yipped, clearly trying to protect her. It was a little fun y to see his reaction, but all she could do was wait and keep hold of him, like Jube had told her to.

When the lightning hit, it surprised her so much that she might have let the pup go, but instead she tightened her grip and suddenly she had the sense of 2 minds, 2 sides. She was afraid and calm at the same time. She saw colours but they weren't right, floating in the air as well as the things around her.

Then the darkness took her and the lights were gone.
