Beat the....cold

Sorry I took so long x_x



Cold…it was so very cold outside. Amisi shouldn’t have been out in the cold but she couldn’t help but explore around her new home. It was a big surprise when the storm hit and she found herself…somewhat lost among the flurry of white. She wasn’t going to freeze in the storm but it was really uncomfortable even if she was used to colder temperatures. The longer she stayed out in the snow, the more she began to wonder if she actually would freeze. “Snap out of it! You can make it through this snow…” She told herself, trotting onwards through the cold.


On and on she walked, sometimes without being able to see in front of her face. The storm blocked out the sun and everywhere in front of her vision was a wall of white. She had to frequently shake her body to dislodge some of the snow clinging to her fur, slowly but surely the cold was setting in and making her sluggish. As she walked onwards she slowly started to see a dot of color amongst the whiteness. At first it was only a fleeting red speck in the snow but the closer she got the more red she began to see. Soon she came upon a small house coated with snow but with the splashes of red poking out in random spots. As she studied the house she noticed that the red dots of color were actually plants that grew around the place. A particularly hard gust of wind reminded her that she needed to get out of the cold and she quickly began searching for a way inside of the place.

It took a while but she finally found the door leading into the house and wearily tried pushing against it. The door wouldn’t budge from her pushing though and remained shut. She gave a rather feeble growl at the door and tried pushing against it again, walking moving backwards a bit then running forward and slamming her shoulder into the door. She gave a small yelp of pain as her body made contact with the wood but the result was the same as before, the door remained shut. She walked away from the door and circled around the small but well built house in hopes of finding another way in. Her efforts were unrewarded however and she once again found herself in front of the unmoving evil door.

Maybe if she got help then she could open the door. That would mean she would have to go out in the cold from her…relatively not cold spot. At least the house blocked some of the snow. Calling for help was worth a shot though. With her mind made up she walked away from the house and into a small empty section of the snow covered field she was in. Giving her body another hard shake and taking a deep breath she tilted her head up to the sky and howled. She put a lot of energy into her howl since she needed it to carry through the storm to catch…hopefully, someone’s attention. She howled like that for a few moments before she ran out of breath. She turned and trotted back to the house, crouching in front of the door and curling up into a ball, making herself as small as she could in an attempt to dodge some of the snow.
