Nizhoni was eager for the arrival of the turning seasons. He had heard the older wolves talking about it, and was more than eager to see a world that was not so white and grey and cold. To think that the entire outside would be as warm as the den when he and his family were all curled up together inside seemed wonderful, and he was impatient for the will of nature to take hold. He wandered the wood line now, snuffling about in the snow, looking for signs of new growth. So far he had turned up nothing, and was rather disappointed by that fact. He had just turned for home when a screech from above made him jump. He looked upwards, trying to find it's source, and caught it just in time to see it swooping down. It grabbed at something, but Nizhoni could not see what exactly it was. He squinted his eyes, and it hit him like a thunderclap. "Enola!" he cried out, a fierce terror taking hold of him.

The great bird dropped his sister, and he watched as her panicked stricken body bolted. "Enola, wait!" he cried again. She was heading straight for the lake! Nizhoni was a bit lankier than the small girl, and used every spare centimeter of his stride as he pelted after her. His tiny heart had never beat so fast, his tiny paws had never so flown across the ground. She wasn't stopping, why wasn't she stopping! That water so so cold he could barely drink it, and to plunge in would be certain death for a pup. He put on an extra burst of speed, and saw that he was gaining. "Please stop, the lake!" He could say nothing else, his lungs were so strained for air. Finally, he was there. Nizhoni threw himself in her path, scant lengths from the water's edge, and only hoped he could break through her panic to stop the girl.
