It was stupid, foolish, and Kuroki knew his Father would rumble as much, but he just didn't care. There was nothing better than this, the sense of wanton freedom as he charged through the snow, his heart racing both from the thrill and struggle of it all. His grin grew when he noticed Ike following suit, probably against her better judgement too. For a moment he wanted to ward her off, she was clumsy and silly and he didn't want her to get hurt but-it was kind of fun. To toss the rules aside and to run and chase, even though the chances of "catching up" to their prey were slim to none.
The creature wasn't in any danger, but it ran tantalisingly all the same, it's long legs carrying it across the snowy terrain with easy strides. If nothing else it was getting a dramatic send off, one last hurrah before it left the confines of Boreas. Kuroki liked that idea and kicked it up a notch, his legs and lungs burning as he ran as fast as he could manage, with all the snow slowing him down. The orange figure of his Sire soon was lost to the white of the snow, he didn't intend to follow, it seemed. Whatever, he'd catch up sooner or later and give them both a tongue lashing. Till then freedom was theirs.
Over the ridge and down the slanting hill, the massive expansive of ocean soon came into view. It was so bright and blue that Kuroki's dark eyes strained to adjust to the change in colour. There stretching out in the middle, shattered and crumbling, was the remains of the Ice Bridge. Kuroki had never seen anything like it and he almost stumbled in awe, wondering if he could push this even further and try to cross it himself. To see what wonders laid on the other side. After all, if all manners of creatures had made the journey why couldn't he?
And so he pushed on, almost slipping a little as he put his first paw on the ice. Ahead the deer ran on, clopping across the bridge with a marked note of care.
