In a child's mind, this seemed more an odd game at this point.  After finding herself lost, the petite vixen managed to follow a newfound friend to his home among the pirates.  Once there, family found her instead of him, but Aine quite happily seemed to win them over.  They took her home, so she was no longer lost.

She supposed she didn't mind sticking by her father's cousins for the time being.  A beetle nearly drove her off as they finally reached the border.  Then a lizard.  She pouted quietly, rocking on her charcoal colored paws as she discovered herself a little too slow to avoid Raziel's gentle encouragements back.

Waiting certainly lacked the same element of fun as exploring did.  Or chasing butterflies.  Or lizards and beetles in this case.  She swiped her paw down once, almost catching a beetle that ran under her 'Uncle Raz's paws, only she misaimed and soon resumed her restless fidgeting.

Hopefully her da would show up, but then she remembered the 'plan'.  Aine bit the inside of her cheek, growing ever more bored and antsy.  The 'plan' supposedly ended in her extended family parting ways with a missing youth of their own and her back home.  No drama.  No conflict.  She didn't truly understand but it seemed simple enough.

She wished she could do something more than just sit and wait in the meantime.  At least Raziel more than kept the sun off of her.
