do i dare stray any further?

Deluge wasn't sure how she missed it when she had left home last time, surely a bridge made more sense than getting herself caught up in a rip, but it seemed to go on as far as the eye could see. There wasn't much chance of her smelly mother finding her out here! She splished and splashed in the water on either side of the land bridge, looking on in some wonder at the shifting colours that danced under her paws. This wasn't anything like the black sand at home, no siree! She almost missed the outline of another wolf that seemed to be hugging the opposite shore... But only almost. "Heeeeyyy!" she called out, her short tail wiggling with her whole back end. Her front legs lifted off the ground in a half hop, her back feet tapping once her front found the sand again. It wasn't often she actually ran into anyone while she was exploring!
