Catch a wolf by the toe

It was a rare day, or so she was gathering, because it was not raining or threatening to rain. It was simply bitterly cold and windy. Really, it was downright miserable, but Toad was well aware that it could easily be worse at any moment if a thundercloud decided to form. Moss green eyes kept darting to the sky to make sure that nothing had formed in the last five seconds since she had looked up. The girl was doing her best to be cautious of the coral that jutted up here and there, the edges were at times sharp and she was careful to dance around those sharp points when she could.

Toad wished that the sands continued here, but alas, they did not. Replaced with sharp rock and living coral. Frowning she lay at the base of one of the pools, it had a smooth enough surface for her to lay down and drape her paws over the edge. Within the pool she could see many fish swimming about, but she also saw the coral that they swam between. There were crabs as well, moving along the bottom and along the sides..maybe she could snag one of them? But no…. She didn’t really want to get pinched. Instead, for the moment she simply studied the crustaceans and the fish that lurked in the water, waiting to see if they had a weakness that she could exploit, tail wagging slowly behind her.
