First day of my life

Little Bronze was just as curious about the world as the rest of his siblings, though he was far quieter about his wish to explore the rest of the world. Not that he knew what that really entailed, beyond the great pine trees and stretch of snow that he could see just outside the mouth of the family den, but he knew he wanted to see it. All of it. It sounded like a monumental task, even though the boy couldn't even begin to comprehend just how much world there really was, but he was certain he could see all of it, someday at least. He felt a surge of excitement begin to flow through him when their parents rustled them awake.

As slow to move as he was to speak, he lifted himself up and let the rest of his siblings rush ahead of him - save for Pyrite, of course. She was smaller than him, though he couldn't begin to know just how much taller he'd grow. Nor did he know just how identical the two of them looked. He knew he loved all his siblings, but Pyrite especially he was drawn to, and he held back as she encouraged him forward. He gave her a little grin as he headed out after the others, pushing past Haüyne and stepping out into the snow. He felt it crunch in a satisfying way beneath his paws and he tested a few more steps, wrinkling his nose as he glanced back at the rest of them to see their reactions. What now?, his face practically screamed.
