He's not entirely sure how he ended up here, of all places. It's pretty far out of the way, from both places that the clouded leopard was relatively comfortable with, and a quiet sort of anxiety is easily settling in. Perseus has always tried to be brave and independent, considering that that's really the only way a kid can survive these days, but it's not as easy as it sounds now is it? Stormy blue eyes skirt around the unfamiliar world around him, darkening as the sun sinks against the horizon. What if it gets too dark to travel by the time someone finds him? What if he's stuck out here? The idea of being alone again scares him, because he's not used to it. His parents had taken care of him before all of this, and he'd been following a few people around afterwards. Marauder. The caracal was the one who'd shown him SunClan, too, and that place was good. Something had been weird about ShadowClan, but it wasn't really a bad place. The child had simply decided to spend most of his time with the happier-looking place.
Until he wandered off, that was. And that ended up with Perc standing where he was, somewhere near RiverClan territory. The child didn't appear to be injured or upset, aside from the anxious way that he bit at his own lip. He yelled at Marauder just a little bit ago for going somewhere and coming back hurt. What if that happened to him? He could smell people nearby. What if they weren't nice? Still, the clouded leopard finds himself hoping that they are. Fur fluffed against the cold and small paws shuffling, he takes a deep breath to try and calm himself down. "Excuse me? I need — is anyone here? I need help."
