Surprise!

Lightning flashed, and the winds ripped through the trees. Rain poured in torrents from the heavens, not to be blocked by the thick forest. Puddles formed everywhere, and where the water soaked in it left squishy mud. The trees billowed back in forth, thrashed to and fro by the violent winds, as if caught in a dance. His fur was soaked through, but he pushed forward. Mud coated up his legs, and the water poured off his body.
Another flash of lightning illuminated the forest around him, followed by a shaking rumble of thunder. Leaves and sticks fell from the trees, thrashed by the raging storm. Here and there, the leaves and sticks would smack into him, causing him to bit his tongue in frustration. The beating of the rain stung against him, and he picked his pace up into a steady lope to escape it.
Turning to his right, he raced onwards, looking as he went for shelter.
Lightning again, illuminated the night, this time exposing a fallen log with a hollowed out looking den under it. Cautiously, he slowed scenting the air, he couldn?t scent much with the storm, but he was pretty sure that no one was there. He squeezed inside and was pleasantly surprised to find it spacious and dry, and mostly un-inhabited.
He rested slowly onto his haunches, and let out a sigh. This storm had been a surprise, and he wondered what else would surprise him tonight. Two toned eyes stared out into the dark clearing, occasionally illuminated by the storm. Relaxing slowly, he laid down, resting his head on his paws to wait the storm out.
