As soon as the roar of the falling snow filled the air, all of Storm was on edge. Even though the white screen had finally settled in the northeastern range of Storm’s land, tension still loomed thick in the air. A head count was performed – all, save one, were present.
Within minutes the teams had been rounded up – two teams of four. The land that had been annihilated covered a large expanse. Even with the two teams, it would be hard work. Time was precious, and they needed to set out right away. With his other teammates, Selene, Kansas, and Kyuubi, standing near him, Pilot gave a nod and the group set off towards the northern region.
"I think we should fan out, so that we can cover more ground faster. Though, we need to make sure that we can see each other at all times. We don’t want this rescue mission to be complicated by more lives trapped." As they trudged on, Pilot’s gaze traveled to the mountain silhouette looming in the distance. Was this all it had to offer, or was there more ominous snow ready to obliterate the teaming wolves? "Maybe we should try to keep our voices low as well, in case we happen to cause more snow to slide. However, if you feel you may see something, alert the rest of us. It will be faster if we all team up to dig together. Sound good, team?" He offered a smile, trying to keep the group’s morale high, even though they all knew the life of Phoenix’s daughter was at stake.
