Jingle Bells

So.. why did I do this again? Kai couldn't help but wonder what the hell he'd been thinking when he'd decided to head out to an island. An island, of all things. In the middle of the winter, and so far north. The island had looked close enough to the shore that the swim didn't seem too bad, and it really wasn't.. distance-wise. Temperature-wise, though? Brrr! It'd taken him awhile to warm up by the time he trudged his way up the shore, finding more snow than sand, and even when the snow started to fall more heavily from the sky he hadn't quite fully warmed up yet. He'd been lucky enough to find a sliver of sunlight to dry himself off in before the temperatures started to drop later, let his pelt freeze over completely. It wasn't long before the last rays of sunlight disappeared, dull grey snow clouds filling the sky completely, until finally large snowflakes started to fall to the earth.

Finding shelter might be ideal, he decided after some wandering over the ice-frosted terrain. There were enough trees and foliage to give him hope of finding somewhere relatively dry to rest later in the evening - and though finding shelter was his intention, his focus was suddenly pulled away as the scent of a stranger drifted by. Kai was instantly intrigued, knowing anyone as brave as him (or was it foolish?) to dare adventure here was someone he wanted to get to know.

He saw the male's tracks before he actually saw him; it looked funnily enough like he'd plowed right through the snow with little care. After he followed after him, padding along the length of snow he'd plowed beneath him, he saw him in the distance - and even from so far away he had to do a double take. The scent was distinctly male, yet he looked like Aggie... only darker, with a slightly different hue to his coat. Huh. Curious, he trudged on, heavy paws smashing snow beneath him with little abandon as his pace quickened. "Hey there!" Kai called out across the distance, his voice booming from deep within his chest.
