Kanan

He was glad that nothing much had come out of the fight, excpet he heard that Kali had vanished. Now he was left to wonder around, feeling that all was well back at the pack lands.

The blue-eyed wolf moved towards the lake, but found the water was frozen over with a thin layer of ice. Rearing back on his haunches, Kanan threw his weight down in his front paws, smashing against the ice so that it broke open. Flicking the chilled water from his paws, Kanan began to lap at the cool liquid.


Frostfur

Frostfur catiously padded up to the wolf. "Hello, I am Frostfur,"
She barked.


Kanan

He turned to the fae, smiling happily at her, for he was very good-natured. "Hello! I'm Kanan, of the Ochotona Mountains pack." Kanan stepped closer to her, "It's nice to meet you, Frostfur."


Frostfur

"Why hello Kanan." She heard her adopted brother's call. "You bored? Are you good at fighting?" Frostfur asked quickly.


Kanan

He gave a nod, "Yeah, pretty bored! Fighting?" Kanan paused, tilting his head a bit to the side, "I haven't fought much, but I think I could hold out. Where's the fighting?"


Frostfur

"The Canyon, but if you don't wish to go, we can fish!" She said


Kanan

"Ooo, I haven't fished in a long time. But it doesn't matter to me, really." he added, for he could be rather indecisive at times. "What ever you want to do is fine with me!"


Frostfur

"Okay, we can fish!" She said excitedly. Frostfur wagged her tail.


Kanan

He grinned, "This will be very interesting." The wolf edged closer to the shore of the lake, where he had broken through the ice. "Hhhmm, we might have to break up some more of this ice, so that we can reach the fish." He stated, and began to jump around, busting up the ice.


Frostfur

She nodded.
FRostfur trotted off and came back with a heavy log in her mouth. She dropped it on the ice, breaking a large amount open. "Now...let's wait 30 minutes so the fish come back" she laughed jokingly.


Kanan

He watched as she brought the log, and laughed at what she said afterwards, "We might just have to do that!" His tail swished merrily in the fridged air and he looked into the water, "I wonder how fish stand that cold water!"


Frostfur

She smiled.
"Well, their pelts are probably just right for the icy water. Imagine though, living like that!" Frostfur laughed.


Kanan

He shivered a bit for emphasis, "Ack, it's too cold to think of that!" Kanan laughed again, dipping his paw into the cold waters. "I wish I could speak to them, but they have a different language than us." The wolf pointed out, for fish and humans were one of the few animals in the Valley that didn't speak in the same language as the wolves.


Frostfur

She shivered. "Oh yes, very icy cold!" Frostfur said.


*Musky*

A dark form stirred beneath the water. A very large shape passed slowly under, about four inches from the water's seface.... It was a Muskellunge, or Musky for short. The giant fish was a touch over five feet in length and weight more than 65 pounds. She was one of the largest fish in the lake, and rather old. She didn't see the wolves, but all their commotion had attracted her attention.


Frostfur

She flicked her tail, telling Kanan she had spotted a fish. She crept to the edge and waited for the fish to come up.


Kanan

His eyes grew wide at the sight of the fish, spotting it after Frostur flicked her tail"Holy..." He muttered under his breath, then grinned. This ought to be fun! Kanan thought and waited eagerly for the musky to serface.


Frostfur

She waited quietly, containing her excitement.


*Musky*

The musky normally would be hanging in the deeper parts of the water, where it was just a touch warmer than the serface area, but she was just too curious. Her head came up to the serface while the rest of her long, almost eel-like body slanted downward so that her tail swirled up the sediment in the shallow lake bed. Her jaws came to the serface, revealing the small but very sharp teeth that lined them.


Frostfur

She flicked her tail and then tried to get her paw under the musky and push it out of the water.
