Becca wandered back into the ranch area. Oh the memories. Once again her wild side had made her wander off. Signs of blood from animals could be faintly seen on her muzzle but they were disappearing. Becca let out a wolfish like howl as she stepped out of the brush behind the ranch. It sound eerily like a wolf. She seemed to be becoming more and more like a wolf as she aged except for the fact she stayed with the humans at the ranch and looked after the livestock.

Martha stepped outside after hearing the howl. She had been talking with Reane inside, and had recently finished bandaging them up after a nasty battle. "Becca!" she called out in gleeful surprise, spotting the Ranch's best gaurdian.

Timber responded to the howl as well, rushing across the yard towards his old friend. He too had been wondering around a bit more than he should, but always he stayed near. "Becca!" he barked sharply, rushing up to nuzzle his friend in greeting.

Rihanne heard the howl from inside, and immediately recognized Becca. She let out a series of barks, her deep bay carrying clear outside. She had been worried about her old friend. She could not as yet get up, but was hoping that Becca would come in so that she could assure herself that the big hybrid was indeed alright.

Becca yipped and nuzzled Timber back heading for Martha and rearing up on her two hind legs to give Martha a nuzzle to. Her cold and wet nose seperated from her bottom jaw and her tounge slid out licking Martha straight across the face. She heard Rihanne from where she was and yipped back to her.

Rihanne heard her friend's yip and staggered up, putting her weight on three legs and hobbling outside to Becca, coming up beside her with a small nuzzle, though the top of her head came only to the bigger dog's shoulder. She began to look her over from top to toe. As things were so wild, she was always concerned about her big friend.

Martha laughed a bit, and gave Becca a squeezing-hug, speaking happy words. Then she looked down to see Rihanne, "Oh, my! Careful!" she whispered, reaching down to gently pet her brave and loyal pet.

Timber's tail wagged wildly and he pranced his front paws, simply thrilled to see Becca again. Then he looked to Rihanne and cocked his head to the side a bit, "Oh no... not again!" He exclaimed, his excitement waning some as he saw his other friend's condition and knew, more or less, what had happened. But before he could ask anyways, the scent of wild wolf came to his muzzle. "Intruders!" The collie snarled under his breath. Like a bullet, he shot off towards their scent.
