To Cold

[ruby]

"So cold." A wolfs teeth chatterd as the snow blanked her pelt. Slowly she walked threw the snow trying to keep warm. Her breath could be seen every time she took a breath. Her red coat now white from the fourming snow that would not melt. Two golden orbs stood out from the white surrounding as she walked. Her paw prints disapperd after she took a step. The wind blew harder on the poor fea making her stop for a few minutes before walking again. Her name was Ruby and she hated the cold.

Walking slower and slower, her vision became fuzzy. Blinking to keep her eyes from freeze. "Damn it." She cursed before clappsing. Her paws were so numb she coul no longer feel them. Rubys golden orbs slowly closed her eyes. ~No i can't sleep~ she thought straining to keep her self consion.

The snow compacted and let out a steady crunching sound beneath paws that spread to catch the frozen powder. A pelt that was thick and used to winter climates caught flecks of white amid the golden fur as this individual traveled through the mountain passes, for this was the only way to pass through from the lands far north. He lifted a paw in the normal stepping motion but stopped the action before he could put it down. His attention was no longer simply ignoring the climate to travel further, but upon a wolfen form hidden in the snow. The ice blocked his sence of smell and muted terrain affected his hearing, though clearly he could see the mound of fur and snow blocking his path.

Taking a step to the side, he scooted around the figure, eyes following what he believed was the head. Large wings, that had been hidden and snuggled warmly against his side, unfolded to act as a cover over the wolfess lying in the snow. He then picked up a paw, moving it forward to carefully tap her nose in order to gain her attention, that is if the traveler was still concious.

Magneta wadded through the snow, her fur was almost completley upright on her neck and back from the cold, she trugged forth then spotted two figures, one lying limply in the snow she looked forward - Should i? - She thought to herself, she turned back to the two wolfs and started bounding towards them as she got closer she stopped and peered at them " Are you alright? " Her vocals questioned

[Wyndbain]

At the sound of a voice, his paw stopped in it's process of poking the fallen wolf, head turning towards the other after she had approached. His ears laid back on his skull, remaining silent as the question was not directed at him. He lowered his muzzle close to the wolf on the ground inspecting her a moment before moving to nudge her softly in order to get a response.

[magneta]

She lowered her head at the fallen wolf then turned her attention to the wolf protecting her from the cold, she remained silent ... Her ears folded back as she noticed the wind had calmed, she looked up at the sky and saw only few snowflakes falling, she realized the blizzard had subsided... for now

[akiko]

Akiko's white pelt flowed against the blistering wind, her mits damp with snow. She lowered her haunches and wrapped her tassle around herself for warmth from the extreme cold. Her daggers dug into the terrain, ice blue orbs wary and tounge lalling from her maw. Long silver wings squeezed against her sides and posterior was low. Akiko glanced up, and saw from a distance, a lone wolf, shivering in the cold. Akiko's eagle feather which hung from her audit was beginning to hurt dreadfully, but she had to continue. Finally, she began to languidly trek forward, to get a better look at the creature.

Aurora treked through the snow lost in thought about the last group of wolves she killed hoping none of their freinds where following. Then she saw them. a group of three wolves out in the middle of the snow. 'How odd', she thought sitting down making ice spread around her more. she'd been using her ice abilities to freeze the ground upon which she walked as usual keeping here from having to step through the wet snow. an idea suddenly came to her. 'What if their pack wolves fresh food a nice place to sleep. i havent had any of that in a while'. She then walked slowly toward them tappering off the amount of ice under her feet as she went. most people would slightly freak at the sight of a wolf standing above the snow considering the ice was almost see through except for the blueish tent.

when she came near enough she said in a polite obviously fake voice, "looks like a bit of... trouble, anything i can do."

[Wyndbain]

Mage's head turned at the sound of a new voice, taking note that along with him and the fallen wolf, there were now three others. A smile lit his maw, gaze turning to the wolf he still sheldered from the wings with his wide, golden wing. 'You are certainly a lucky one, yes.' He thought to himself.

His attention was now set upon the one who had spoken up, though he kept his wing sheltering the wolf in the snow. "You are kindness itself..." He could not guess her age nor did he know it, "M'lady. If it does not trouble thou, could you assist this young one here?" Mage moved a paw to indicate Ruby on the ground. If he had noticed and thought the layer of ice upon the ground around her that acted as her footing odd, then he made no mention of it or either he truely wasn't surprised by such a feat of magic.

"I've been kept from these lands so long, I am selfish of my time and yearn to walk upon familiar soils again. I suffer myself though, for I cannot abandon one in need of assistance without the reassurance that she is in capable paws."

The black wolf stepped closer to the wolf laying on the ground and took a look at her. it was obvious she wasnt dead but she was close enough. She looked at the winged wolf and said, "we need a warm place to put her until she wakes up. a little warth and some food and she should be okay. By the way im Aurora."

[Wyndbain]

He bowed his head, "And I am Mage."

His form lowered to the snow, to the point that the thick fur on his stomach only grazed the frozen wetness below. His rump wriggled a bit, making him look laughable for only a second before he lauched into the air, feet pushing off in an attempt to fly. His wide wings caught the strong frozen currents and he was thrown close to the ground before pumping them non-stop to take to the skies again. He was only several feet above, but well enough to catch hidden thermals rising from the snow below. His eyes scanned ahead and behind, taking note of paths and unpassable areas by foot. It was well down the in the pass that he spotted the nearly hidden hole in the snow, but a cave it most certainly was. His voice rang to the forms standing below, carried by the winds, "Ahead there is a hidden hollow. Such a shelter should provide enough warmth to get her going to the warmer grounds."

His wings pumped at the air as he turned, heading towards a sea of green and auburn colored leaves. Feathers stroked the air in gentle sweeps while he back winged to keep himself in place a moment longer. "I trust you to accompany her further. As for myself, I regret that I have stalled in my journey far too long. Forgive me, as I must depart for now." He then let his wings loose, drifting to the south where trees and animals were only just preparing for colder climates. "May we meet again in the future!" He called back to them before becoming a miniscule object in the sky.
