My neck craned in different angles, taking in the position of everything I could see, and from the looks up it. There was alot of snow, great. Trudging on my stocky body made a path, pushing the snow out from into of my legs. I was pleased at the progress I was making in my quest, so much better than the long, lanky breeds. Now sure, they could soar over the drift, but where was the fun in that? There wasn't any fun in that. With a smug expression I tossed my muzzle once and my gaze slide back alongside me, watching the wind sweep across the hard surface of something, the snow was packed down, what could it be.
Curiousity over took me and I leapt upwards, coming down in a patch of fresh snow, so it didn't reach this far out. My tendons clicked as I continued forward, and when I got to the spot, I grinned, what a great little adventures, now, to see what was my prize. Carefully I went across the hard snow, my muzzle down and scraping along the thick film of snow, gaze raking over it, what in the world could it be?
I took one more step and froze soild, something was creaking and cracking, and little did I know, I would soon be taking an unneeded bath. My narels expanded and out rolled clouds of white fog, I was definatly unsure of this now. Taking steps back, I looked down, and by all surprise, I was standing on a thin sheet of ice, the snow having tricked me into thinking it was soild ground, when really, it was a shallow puddle, or so I thought.
As the ice broke I let it, thinking I would be up to my ankles in the water, my knees at the most, and boy was I wrong. When the ice split away and dropped me in, I sunk right up to the middle of my shoulder. With a string of curses I gave a few shivers before turning around completely and pushing my way to shore, shaking and twitching, my tail flopping around to break the ice away on my pelt.
