Snow day

[Alden J. Blethen]

As the steal gray sky blankets the sept's sky, and drops it's cold white mantle across the landscape, the sounds are muffled in only the way snow can. All of the migrating animals have moved on, following the invisible paths the Mother has laid out for them, and those that hibernate have found their dens. The grazers move slowly finding the last few tender morsels of food. Their paths stretch and meander through the forests and trees.
Some take this time to meditate, to find the truth of winter, with in themselves. Others find every opportunity to avoided the cold. A long walk is the order of the day for few others. The snow muffles sound bringing the world to a calm, still, and at the heart of the woods, erie, silence.
Off on the right side of the path is a glade. On further inspection there is an oddly placed drift. Perhaps a hardy shrub or a small tree has taken root. Suddenly, a low whistle drifts closer. Then with out warning...

PAFF!!!

The stinging ice crystals blot out the lights, whiting out the landscape. Llue's giggling is all that is heard as he dives back into hiding.

"Chalk up, one more the the Snow-garou!" he thinks to himself, "Hehehe!"

A particular and familiar missed scent had drifted down into the den hidden behind the house on the caren with the biggest back lawn, waking one of the two occupants sleeping within. Fluffy black ears perked up as blood red eyes slowly opened and blinked a couple times, their owner taking a deep breath before lifting it's head. The owner was a large black and grey shewolf who was now making her way towards the entrance of her den, her mate still asleep and not ready to wake up yet.

Poking her head up out of the den entrance in a rather amusing manner and tilting her head at the world of white(Well..more white than her normal black and white) that greeted her. After digging herself out of the snow bound hole, the shewolf plopped down on the white covered ground and gave her tail a hearty wag. It had been a few years since Strange Blood had seen the snows of the cold season and it reminded the normally serious Athro of her old home in Yellowstone.

It is about time.. She thought to herself as she gave her thick pelt a great shake, knocking the snowflakes off her deep red shoulders then trotted off towards the main area of the caren. The sound of wings beating near her told Strange Blood that her pack's totem was following her and she turned to greet Wild Raven with a play bow before tearing off through the snow. The wolf born Grand Elder had decided that today was a day for setting aside one's age for a while and remember what it was like to be a pup again.

Barking and yipping happily to herself as she plowed through the snow, she turned towards a small hill and launched herself over the top and let herself roll down it's slope. After reaching the bottom and rolling around in the cold fluff a little more, Strange Blood sat up and let out a wolfish chuckle before....

WHMPH!!

The shewolf felt something smack her right in the face, leaving her blinking with a starburst of snow stuck in her fur. She blinked a few more times until a sound off to her right made her ears perk towards the familiar voice.

"Snow-Garou you say, Llue?" Strange Blood called out in High Tongue as she shook herself off and wiped the snow off with her paw, "We will have to see about that..." With a wolfy grin, the Red Talon barreled in the direction of Llue's giggling with her tail wagging.
