The sun began to set behind the white pelted boy as he sought a place to rest for the night. His paws had brought him to a land of rocky outcrops, his pelt shining with the sunset and turning his pelt a fiery glow. He stopped atop a trail that he followed upwards, attempting to get a better view of the world below. He marveled at the sight, the view below and the sunset beyond awed him. Long shadows cast themselves across the land beyond the trees, over rivers and lakes and he could just make out the figures of buffalo herds and the occasional wolf wandering in open land. Ah, this was a sight to be stored away for a long time. With a sigh of contentment, he returned to his search.
In a moments time of searching, he came across a split in the rocks. Peeking down the darkening hall, he figured not many would tread these parts of the land and so he slowly slid inside. The hall was just big enough for him to fit, and barely turn around. So should anything decide to jump out at him, he would have to scramble back blindly. The darkness began to engulf him, the light outside fading ever slowly and his shadow cast a length in front of him. All he could hear now were the soft footfalls of his pads, and his own breathing. But then, a strange voice would intercept his steady rhythm. "I have no problem taking you there."
Instantly he would stop in his tracks, head struck forward as he strained to listen. Aqua gaze searched the darkness, and somewhere nearby he could hear the soft scrabbling of paws and other whisperings. "Erm...hello? Someone there?" He called softly, tenseness spreading through his body.
