With Adrianna having disappeared for what seemed like years (but was actually just several months), Gregory was keeping her house in hopes that she would return. However it was on days like this that he was forced to burn off nervous energy in lion form, and he was venturing further and further into the woods until he lost scent of his mate's old scent marks altogether. At this moment he was trailing a barely worn path that he was slowly hollowing out of the undergrowth; in human form, Greg was a person of routine. He could not bare to walk the other road, the one that lead to their anniversary garden that he had been so delicately cultivating in order to propose to Adrianna. After she had disappeared he had not visited. It was sure to be tangled with weeds, vines, nettles and all manner of unsightly, choking plants that would turn the bluebells into dust. He cared for the house but he had not the strength to care for the beautiful grove. It only reminded him of what he had lost. Gregory rubbed his white, furry nose against the last marking of Adrianna's snow leopard form. It was too much today. Today, he was going as far as he could and then some. Such memories hurt even the heart of his animagus form, and the lion dropped its head as it plodded on.
Soon though, Gregory came upon a strange opening that golden sunlight filtered through. It took great pushing and pulling, but finally he forced his way through the thorny thicket and wrenched his way into burning sunlight. Why, he was in a wheat field! It didn't occur to him that a field equaled civilisation. In fact, this area was not five miles from Obsidian and just behind a white picket fence separating a park and the farmer's land. The wind did not carry the smell of people to the white lion's great nose; as far as Greg knew, it was safe to frolic. So frolic he did! The five hundred pound beast leapt and pranced amongst the waving stalks of wheat, never noticing as it passed over a well worn path that cross the field and linked to another town. Greg simply bounded and rolled friskily in the dry plants. Sometimes it was better to stay in lion form where one could free your mind and forget the troubles of the human flesh.
