A streak of red barreling towards him caused Jupiter to slam on the brakes. His front legs stiffened and that, combined with his forward momentum and the additional weight on his neck, caused the big-headed pup to tip forward and slide through the snow on his chin. “Around that tree, hurry!” Mindlessly Jupiter scrabbled to his paws and lurched around the tree.

On the other side of the tree came the sound of a struggle but before he could process just what that might mean for the red wolf, Jupiter felt fists clamp around his ears. The little tree monster yanked up on them as if he thought he could steer the boy by doing so. "What are you doing? Keep running!" The little monkey yanked his ears hard to the left, clearly trying to direct him that way.

"But-"

"Forget him. It's a mountain lion, not a tabby cat."

Jupiter lurched to his feet, but before he could make up his mind, the monkey yanked his ears backwards. "Wait, wait. Maybe he's not dead after all." Both listened intently for a moment. "Are you alright, young ones?” Jupiter peeped around the tree and was surprised to see not one, but two big cats sitting obediently in front of the big red wolf.

"I take offense to being referred to as a "young one" but yes, we are alright." He yanked on Jupiter's ears again, this time earning a protest. "Ow! Rude little monster!" The boy shook the small creature off of him, and in a huff the monkey scaled the tree beside him.

His fear ebbing away, Jupiter crept from behind the tree. His eyes darted from the big red wolf to the two placid cats and then back again. Clearly, there was magic involved. "Wow, how'd you do that?"

"Jupiter" "Amadeus" "You"
