Rala nodded but kept her attention on the landmarks below, the rocks were up here somewhere. 
 She glanced back at Ace long enough to smile, "Thank you; you have a nice name as well." 

 Suddenly, she caught sight of a ridge sticking up out of the forest to her right. Going wide eyes she let out a small sound of approval, "There it is!" 

  She dove down as the first few raindrops began to fall from the sky; the clouds overhead and thunder sounding in the distance. Then with a crack, a bolt of lightning erupted on the horizon and tickled the hilltops below it. The air was warm to breath yet crisp with electricity; it would be unsafe to remain outside. 

  Dipping down close Rala led the way to a large rock face; swooping around until she found a dark crack on the south side. Running sideways it created a shelf inside the rock; the perfect place to hide form the storm. 

  The female flew in closer and spread her wings so that she could glide slowly downwards. Reaching out with her talons she grabbed onto the rockface, then clambered into the cave. It was big enough for all of them; perfect.
