But what did she do next?

wc: 268 D: laaame!

Element looked out into the forest, sitting at the edge of a frozen pool that followed a stream that flowed downhill. He had wanted to fish for some of the tasty, silver little fish that often swam here, but he realized now that that was most certainly not an option. He wondered what happened to the aquatic creatures when the pool froze through and through - did they freeze too, and thaw out in the spring? Or did they just die? He wondered what it'd be like to wake up one day and be frozen in a block of ice for three months. He shivered at the thought - and get his fur all wet? And not be able to move! What a horrible idea. He was glad he survived on land, where he could move freely.

He watched the deep blue depths, thinking about all these things, when he heard a faint whining sound. It seemed to have come...upstream? He looked in the direction of the top of the stream and saw a canine racing down the slide. He seemed very unhappy, and was just a gold blur as Element saw him. He watched all the way down to when the - wolf? coyote? dog? - crashed into the snowbank just on top of the frozen pool.

Element curled his tail around himself and looked at the canine. He saw now that he was a hybrid - part wolf, part coyote. He was a deep gold with darker spots around him, and a paler underside. His eyes were a deep crimson. Element cocked his head. "Having fun?" he teased lightly.
