Thread: Lost Cub
WHO: Imani and Mr. Kaden
WHEN: Backdated to the first morning Imani went missing after Neculai was sent back
WHERE: The woods
Being a teenager was hard. Being a teenager who had been trapped and abused for most of your life? That was something Kaden couldn't ever wrap his head around. It made him more patient and more lenient with the Anton kids, especially the ones in his House. Mr. Kaden was often known for being protective of his students, and while some of that was natural instinct, a lot of it had to do with the loss of his own children some years ago.
So, when Imani didn't return to the dorms one night, Kaden went out to find her. Sense of smell was a funny thing for weres. The average wolf's sense of smell was 100 times better than a humans. A blood hound's is 300 times better. Whereas a bear's sense of smell was 7 times better than a blood hound's or 2,100 times better than a human. It was a blessing and a curse, but when it came to locating missing students, there was no one better equipped for it at the school than Mr. Kaden.
He easily tracked Imani through the woods. He traveled in his bear form, unsure what he would find when he arrived, and wanted to be prepared. Reassured that he didn't smell any blood, Kaden, the enormous Kodiak bear, still hurried his lumbering pace to get there sooner. It had been a cold night with a light dusting of snow. Imani was an elemental witch, but that didn't necessarily mean she would've thought to start herself a fire to stay warm.
When he did find her, Kaden stopped and made a plaintive sound in his throat. Giant paws tipped with curved black claws crunched through the layer of snow, approaching her slowly. Hot breath steamed from his nose and mouth as he lumbered in, blocking the wind, shielding her. Kaden was more bear than man in this form, but he was still aware of who she was, why he was there, and the urgent need to make sure she was okay.
A warm wet nose nuzzled the girl's side, grunting bear noises coming from him as he tried to rouse her.
