Ohohohoh Tell me the story behind this one :D
Imagine you're there.
Who's leading who?
Where are they?
What're they doing in the woods?
Why's the fire so big?

Perhaps she is a deep-woods wisewoman, Living out of the wagon to avoid the sort of troubles that tend to pile up around anyone who practices a different sort of way then the norm.
A shapeshifter, or mebbe this is her only form, and she hides away from most, due to the lack of open minds in the world.
Whoever she is, whoever is seeing her is lucky to be.
I dunno about the fire, lot of sap in the logs?
AHEM HEM HEM.
Rhari meandered quietly through the forest, listening to each unique sound that rustled behind the woodland scenery. Night was a beautiful time, a time she'd rarely taken the opportunity to appreciate, She closed her eyes for a moment, lost in the dizzily sweet songs of forest, the warmth of the roaring fire next to her, and the gentle summer breeze caressing her hair like a mother's fingertips.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, dear." A voice echoed quietly from the house, tones smooth as silk, and warm like the raging heat that burned so brightly next to her.
A few moments passed, before the head of a familiar wolf made itself apparent in the window of the small hut in front of her. In the summer's tender kiss of darkness, Rhari could just make out the piercing emerald eyes that sought out her form under the rise of the moon. The jagged spikes of un-groomed hair jut freely from her scalp, and the wolf gave a slow yawn, parading her tongue into the open to offer the world an alarming amount of pinkness. Rhari let her lips twist into a familiar smile and she canted her head in a slick, well practiced nod.
"I applaud you coming all the way out here in the middle of the night. I'm pleased my signal fire was not wasted." The wolf said, moving casually from the window to the door to offer the roaring flames a simple gesture with her fingers. Rhari gave another of her well practiced nods, before glancing towards the inferno in question. Her tail flickered with a gentle flare of annoyance at the skittering sparks that rose into the air, and she turned back to grin at the wolf with the jackal like smile.
"Perhaps a bit over done?" Said Rhari, who's eyes peppered over the fire once again, watching the dancing flickers of heat lapping at the air, much like an attention starved child searching for an audience. The wolf shook her head, cascading from the doorway in a swift gliding few steps and waved a fuzzy set of fingers towards the flames. "Something about the night makes me feel......comfortable, but I left this fire out for you. It's the only light here, aside from the moon. "Spark quipped, before letting her gaze shoot upwards, casting her eyes across the pale glowing disc that hovered in the sky. Rhari licked over the lips, before taking a step forward with her left, and crossed her arms, not caring to be left waiting any longer then she needed. Spark's ears perked, and the wolf flashed her trade mark grin, which would have been lost to the darkness of the summer's night, had it not been for the fire. Instead, the young fox found herself once again greeted with the uncomfortable display of several sharp, silvery glistening fangs.
"My apologies...please, walk this way." Said the wolf, lapping over each of the words with a thick new york accent. She turned sharply on her heel and proceeded to walk briskly towards the small home hidden deep in the forest. She paused momentarily, just as Rhari was taking her first steps to follow suit and spun around with a finger pointed at the fox-taur with an accusing sneer corrupting her pretty lips with it's grim twisted appearance.
"Old joke is old! Not funny. You were copying my style of walking, weren't you?!" She barked. Rhari blushed darkly, feeling a sheepish smile rolling over her muzzle and tugging at her lips.
There was silence in the forest, aside from the burst and crackles of the flickering fire next to them.
"No."Said Rhari slowly. They both burst into a cheerful melody of giggles.
It's late and I'm sleepy mc tired. Maybe I'll write more of this tomorrow. Not bad for off the top of my head. XD
