A/N- I was board and was rereading Blood Ties, and wrote this out of the sheer fangirl attack I had when you started to see how much closer Meilin and Jhi were getting. So I decided to do a little project on all the Four Fallen and there bonded partners. Starting with these gals! I'll update soon. Also, I don't own Spirit Animals.
It wasn't long till Meilin learned and accepted that she couldn't brave her fathers death alone. It was to tragic, and she was far to hurt to just stand and take it with a smile. Soon, relying on someone was just something she was going to have to do. Weather she liked it or not. Crying and breaking down at the slightest hint of anything that reminded her of her father couldn't go on.
Meilin needed a friend she could trust with her feelings. Sadly, making friends was not a specially she had mastered.
It was on a one of the nights she stayed up that she thought about this for a long time. All of the sudden, she felt fluffy fur on her arm and back. It trued out to be Jhi nuzzling her. The eleven year old lifted up her arm and allowed the panda to lay next to her and put her head on her lap.
Her spirit animal then looked up at her with something in her silver eyes. They were full of sympathy and understanding, Meilin realized. With out another word she hugged her partner as best as she could and begun to cry. Jhi sat up, and let her lean into her while she wrapped a paw around her.
"It hurt's...so much...to loose someone you love." She whispered threw the tears that fell. Her panda licked her forehead in a comforting gesture to let her know she understood. It was that night that Meilin realized why it would be preferred to loose a limb then a spirit animal. She knew then that she would.
