We close this now? 
Oak stood as still as he could for his brother, though after a moment his hind legs began to tremble under the other pup's weight. As soon as he felt the hind feet on his shoulders lift off, Oak crumbled to the frosty grass, falling upon his back. From there he gazed up at the branch, smiling when he saw that Cypress had made it. You're welcome! he returned happily. Just then, Alder's displeased voice came from behind, and Oak turned his head to look at him. His smile faded. They were having fun; why did Alder want to end it? His brow furrowed, ears falling. He didn't understand!
Awder, why...? but he was too late, Alder had turned and scrambled towards the Manor. Oak sighed and rolled over, getting to his feet. He was about to follow his masked brother when he remembered that Cypress was still in the tree. Oak looked up again, jerking his head after Alder. Yous jump down? We should go see what Awder says to Mama. I dink we will be in trouble, he spoke lowly, crestfallen. He already anticipated his mother's disapproving gaze, knowing that it would hurt his heart and fill him with shame. There was no avoiding it now, for Alder had disappeared into the distance.
