Cross walked out into the light of the snowy day. Bright and beautiful it was, without a speck of cloud in the winter sky, that, for so long had been clouded with storm clouds of a size that only the north winds can produce. He was finally getting outside again. Well, finally for him. That meant... 24 hours? Way too long for a little pup. Cross didn't like complaining, so mostly he'd been sulking on the stones, dreaming up all the impossible adventures he'd have as soon as he had his littermates were given the all clear.

To his surprise he'd dozed off, and when he awoke, his mother was gone. Cross gave his siblings a whisk with his tail. Then up he came to his little black paws (which were actually rather big for a cub his age) and off he went, half running, half waddling to the edge of the pack cave. He was still rather potbellied from milk and first meats, but it didn't matter to him if his belly completely dragged on the snow - he just wanted to be out in it.

All other adventures were pushed aside though, when he saw the wolf standing there with his mom.

"Dad!" he squealed "You're back!" He leapt from the stone lip of the cave.... and did a belly flop straight down into a snowdrift.
