Becoming a pack member has been a long time dream of Kaliska. But now that she has been excepted, she has no clue what to do. She heard some stories about packs from her mother, but her mother disliked pack life so she wasn't sure if most of it was true. Her mother had told her about how they are strict to submission and respect of authority, which she didn't doubt, and how they were loving if you do what the rule say. She also said that they were cruel and hateful to those who chose a wrong way of life. Kaliska couldn't say which was true or not, she just knew that she had to find out soon.
Kaliska wondered around the new and unfamiliar territory. It was beautiful but she could tell a great storm had hit not that long ago. The land was a blanket of ice and the trees had trouble standing tall. She thought about how hard it must have been on the fellow Phoenix Valley members, their homes must have been destroyed. She felt sorry for them all, the families and young ones.
Walking through the cold snow made her paws freeze, so she searched for a shelter. The wind began to blow furiously and she ran. She saw ahead of her was a fallen tree, so she started to dig underneath it. Making a hollow hole just big enough for her, she crawled in and escaped the terrible winds. The last thought that came to her mind was that if someone was to pass by, they wouldn't notice her because of her cursed snow white pelt. So she stepped out of the slightly warm make-shift den and rubbed her scent all over the log. Now if someone was to pass by they would smell her scent and hopefully check it out. Kaliska crawled back under the tree and curled into a ball. She slowly slipped into a deep sleep.
