Ok.... I know this chapter is really short compared to some of the others, but the girl is really important later on so bare with me - It is not writer's block.
Chapter 11
She was walking along in the forest, listening to the birds sing. It wasn't long until sunset and she wanted to find somewhere safe to rest. Her fluorescent green eyes swung round as a twig snapped nearby, only for her to discover a small fawn stepping out after a doe. It wasn't that she was frightened, but a lot of things had happened to her recently and now she was overly cautious about what she did.
Her name was Ivaline and although she was a little lacking in height, no one she had met could say she was lacking in personality - in fact it was as if her personality made up for her height. Of course she hadn't many friends as she was nothing more than a hanyou in the eyes of many, but to her little pet sparrow she was the most caring mistress it had ever had. Occasionally she would be accepted by the roaming deer as their own as she was a shika hanyou and therefore technically half theirs already.
"Ooooh! Pretty flowers!!!" She ran towards the small plants and smiled. Some were the same colour as her yukata – which was a primrose yellow – but she had already guessed there would be none like her blue haori. She sighed as she began to walk again.
Not once did she notice the eyes that followed her from deep in the bushes....
