It was a cold winters night in the woods of north eastern Maine. I was try my hardest to walk through the already five feet of snow. As I stopped to take a breath, as I look up at the cloudy sky. I felt a snowflake fall on my right cheek.
"Great, more snow. I have to get back soon."
I started to walk again but not even five minutes of walking, I had to stop. The snow storm had gotten so bad, that I couldn't see an inch in front of my face. "I need to fine a place to get out of the snow!"
I found this very large pine tree. It didn't even had any snow under the branches. So, I found shelter under the pine. There was alot of dry sticks and pine needles under the branches. So I cleared a spot 5 foot by 5 foot spot and I dug out about a inch deep, 1 foot by 1 foot spot so I could build a fire. "There, hopefully I have something to start the fire with."
I looked around on the ground to see if there was any rocks but I couldn't find any. I emptied out my pants pockets and I had a lighter. "Thank god I had you in my pocket."
I pressed the button and the lighter flickered to life. I had an old gum wrapper in my pockets, so I used that to light the fire. Once the fire was light, i sat down on the ground by the fire. "The fire is nice."
I looked out from under the branches at the snow storm. It was just as bad as I last saw it. I sighed as I looked back at the fire. "I guess that I'm stuck here for the time being."
I sat there running my hand through my long brown hair, to get the pine needles out of it. "Why am I even doing this right now. I need to make a bed."
I stood up and started to push all the pine needles into a pile, so I could use that to keep me off of the cold ground. I put all of the sticks into a pile next to the trunk. "There I have a bed to sleep on and a nice amount of wood to keep the fire going for a while."
My brown ears perked up as I hurd the sound of someone or something walking through the snow. I listen intently to try to identify what was making the sound. When I hurd, "Kayla, where are you?"
I smiled as I hurd the familiar voice of one of my pack members. He had long silver gray hair, sliver gray wolf ears and a silver gray tail. "Jason, I'm under here!"
Jason walked through the snow to get over to the pine that I was under. He pushed some of the branches over as he walked under the pine. We hugged each other after he came under. "Jason, why are you out here?"
Jason sat down by the fire as I got a few more sticks to put on the fire. He took off the hat that he was wearing. "Dylan to me to come and look for you. You should of been back to the house hours ago."
I glared at Jason as I put the sticks on the fire. I sat down on the bed I made and crossed my legs. "I know that Jay, but the storm came in so fast that I had to bunker down. Dylan shouldn't of sent you out."
Jason just chuckled and shook his head as he took the back pack off of his back and handed it to me. "Here Kayla, there is some food and a thermos full of coffee in there for you."
I looked at the bag, unzipped it and pulled out some dear jerky, the coffee and a note from Dylan saying, "Kayla dear, hurry back home please. I love you." I took a bite of the jerky as Jason warmed his hands over the fire. "Jay, is everything ok?"
Jason grabbed a piece of jerky and started to eat it as a big gust of wind blew. We hurd a howls on the wind and we knew that it was our pack calling for us. "They want us to come home."
