Kitsuna allowed Ren to nudge her away following him back into the forest very slowly with many pauses and glances back over her shoulder. She was still dragging her heels as they made their way to a deserted clearing less than half a mile away from the tree line. Kitsuna set herself down on her haunches but her posture was still tense and all her tails twitched back and forth in a fan like pattern causing a little stir of dust and leaves around her. A half formed plan lingered in her mind, one of sneaking off and exploring that human town the excited and fascinated her. However she knew slipping past Ren would be difficult but that just made the challenge more exciting.

With a real effort of will Kitsuna stilled her tails and faked a large yawn. Getting to her paws slowly she padded softly over the hollow roots of a tree and turning herself on the spot three times over she settled herself with a small grunt into a sleeping position. Looking up at Ren she gave him a small smile which implied nothing but a sleepy innocence.

“I am feeling too sleepy to hunt now and I am rather more tired than hungry Ren. Don’t worry about me though, you go hunting. I am sure you need to keep up your strength old one.” Her face was alive with cheeky delight.
