As Told By Ginger
It was night time! Fa was finally asleep - or if he wasn't, he was a pretty good pretender. Now it was Ashy's time to go out on her own and explore the vast expanse before her. But where to go first? As she jumped up from his side, she circled around in her thought. Her legs were itching to move - she couldn't wait for her mind to catch up!
So off the little puppy went, into the darkness of the forest. At the foot of the snowy mountains, a chill wind ran through her fur. She howled - very softly - to herself, enjoying the cool air. Her pawpads got bitten with the sharp ice as she walked into it. what a sensation! It had been a while since she felt the bite of cold.
Meanwhile, Zack had kept a close eye on his puppy, feigning sleep. With an intake of breath at her excited little howl, he shook his head and stirred faintly - off to his nightly routine of making sure the pup didn't get into any trouble she thought she could handle. A small smile filtered onto his face in affection. Stretching, he caught sight of the fur on his foreleg. Was that....a gray hair? Ashy. What would he do with you? Silently, he padded after her. Though for her small legs, she sure could go quite a distance. Soon he found tracks of hers in the snow. That's right....winter had been fast-approaching, hadn't it?
