Title: Into the Pride Rating: G Prompt: #3 Same but different Category: 100 words Word Count: 100 Summary: Of all the titles Alanna has, there is one she loves best. -----
“Mama’s back!”
Before Maude could stop them, the twins were darting out of the nursery, following their brother through the corridors of Pirate’s Swoop. Trumpets and happy cheers heralded Alanna’s return, and so did the gleeful squeals of excited children running toward her.
She was Alanna the Lioness, the King’s Champion, a baroness, a knight and a hero, but for this moment in time, she didn’t answer to any of those. For once, the call of duty was lost to her ears, blown away by the winds of escape.
The children cried Mama, and that was the call she answered.

Awww, this is really sweet! I figured from the title that it was about the Pirate's Swoop family somehow, and then the summary let me know what it would be about, and then I was silently (cos I'm in the library at uni ) squeeing the whole way through it. ;D Awesome drabble!

Thank you! I'm really glad you like it, since you know Alanna better than I do!

Aw, this is so sweet! Now I get the lion reference in the title (I was sort of wondering before) and I love the summary and this whole drabble, especially the last line! Great concept and great writing!
