Winter Mountain

First topic message reminder :

This is the place in the territory where almost no one goes to. It's cold and winter never ends there. Blizzards and avalanches come a lot. Also there are a gang of loners that are living here, that are vicious and blood-thirsty.

Animals in the area: Rams, snow rabbits, loners, bison, coyotes

Dawn nodded and followed Fang to the rift. She looked into the blackness of it, and quietly crawled into it. "Ok." Dawn said looking ahead of her where Fang was. She continued to crawl deeper in the darkness of the little cave.

Seaspray looked down the hole. The smoke was so thick that he couldn't see Rosaleena. He gave the large snowball a final nudge that sent it hurtling into the orange light below. At the same moment, Seaspray lost his grip on the icy stone and fell to the ground with a loud yelp. The fall knocked the breath out of him, and as he lay on the freezing snow, gasping for air, he wondered if the yelp gave him away or served as a distraction. Seaspray hoped that the plan had worked so far.

Rosaleena was jump about to collapse to the ground, but a blanket of snow covered her and the ring of fire, and also Seaspray. The snow got rid of a lot of snow, making her catch her breath. She looked at Seaspray worriedly and said, "Seaspray? Seaspray! Get up!" She put her paw on his shoulder and shook him a little to get him going again, for the loners were confused and this was their time to escape.

"Now Dawn!!" Fang howled as he heard the fire go out. Let's get them!!!" He snarled loudly and sprinted out of the dark hole, and ran straight for the leaders head. (Tornado) Fang gripped onto his ears, while he clawed down at his eyes and face.

Dawn ran with Fang and jumped high into the air. She griped onto the leaders neck as she landed and held on.Dawn bit down harder and harder at every passing second.

Seaspray groaned, as if in a daze, then shook his head and leapt to his paws. "Now's our chance!" He yipped, echoing Rosa's thoughts.

Rosaleena saw Seaspray open his eyes, and she yelled, "Seaspray come on! We need to get out of here! This place is about to collapse (because of the snow)! We need to hurry!" She noticed the pups all over Tornado's face, and she knew that he was a very dirty wolf. "Pups! No!" She ran over there and jumped on the ledge. She carefully placed the pups down beside her. She looked at the loners' leader, fire blazing in her eyes. She let out terrifying snarl, which got a lot of dirt falling on them. She ripped out his eyes and shoved him of of the ledge, where he landed on his face. She perked her ears to the roof of the cave cracking above them, so she screamed, "OUT NOW!!!!" She ran out of the cave as fast as she could, and the loners didn't follow her out because they were off-balance in there that they couldn't even get up.

Seaspray followed out Rosa out of the den on swift paws. Panting, he stared over his shoulder. Once his panting ceased, Seaspray held his breath. Dawn and Fang had to make it out of the cave.

Dawn saw the cave start to cave in and she started to look for a exit. In all the confusion she had forgotten about the way her and Fang came. Then she saw a flicker of let above some rocks that had fallen, Dawn rushed over there stumbling over the rocks as she climbed, her hurt leg making it worse. The pile of rocks got taller and taller as she rushed to get up to the hole. Dawn slipped on a ice patch on one rock, but catch herself on the rock below her. Then she continued to climb the pile of rocks, she hoped that the exit she was gonna go through would not fill up with rocks before she could reach it.

Rosaleena lost sight of the pups in the cave, and it soon collapsed. It was just now a pile of rocks, dirt, and snow. Tears flooded her eyes because she didn't see the pups anywhere, she guessed that they had died with the loners. She looked at Seaspray, with a tear rolling down her face.

Seaspray whined anxiously. Several moments have passed, and neither pup has emerged from the cave. For the first time, he growled at Rosaleena. "No." His growl was more desperate than aggressive. "They can't be dead."

Dawn, now just two rocks away from the exit, felt the rock she was on now give way. Her eyes widened with terror as she saw the top of the cave start to come down. She jumped up to the next rock as the rock below her fell to the ground. Dawn saw the exit, she yelped as Fang pushed her out and clear of the cave. Dawn rolled and slid down the rocks on the other side.

Fang rolled down, and as soon as he stopped he got up and stumbled coughing over to Dawn. "Dawn! Are you okay!?" He looked at her with great concern as he nudged her side with his head gently.

Dawn opened her eyes, she had them shut while she was rolling down the rocks. She looked up at Fang and coughed, "I'm fine." She got up and winced from the pain in her leg almost forgetting about the hurt leg. Dawn looked back up at the top of what once was the cave, then she looked for the others, she new they were okay because she had saw them get out, but Dawn wondered where they were.

Fang followed Dawn's gaze as he also looked around. He perked his ears and howledas loudly as he could to maybe get a response from the others. His howl was long and stiff from the lack of oxygen. But he managed to keep the howl up.

Seaspray's answering howl was hoarse with relief. He loped over to Fang and Dawn's location, sniffing them all over and licking their ears in greeting. "I'm so glad you made it!" He yipped. "We showed those loners!"

Rosaleena followed Seaspray, and a few seconds later she saw the pups. The tears in her eyes dried away. "Fang! Dawn! Are you both ok?"

"Yes I'm just fine, just need to catch my breath..." He said and coughed to proceed by inhaling a large amount of air. He shook the dirt out of his fur, and looked at the others again. "How about you, are ya'll okay?" he asked still more concerned about them.

Dawn smiled when she saw Seaspray and Rose coming. She wagged her tail and said, "I'm fine, just some scrapes and cuts." She said looking at her leg, it still hurt but not that bad. Dawn coughed, then shook her fur the snow and dirt flying every where.

"Yeah, I'm fine. And I'm assuming that the loners are no more... which is good," Rosaleena said. "And we should be getting back; this place is an icicle rolled around with dirt."

"Yeah... We should go... Before anything else happens..." He said and coughed a few times, thinking he was never going under the ground again because of the adrenaline that hit him when he wad there.

"Yeah well it was the only place that I didn't want. C'mon!" Rosaleena ran down the mountain back to the den site.
