This is for a wolf rp between myself and IcedAntimony only

Bramble padded through the forest, next to Ivy. A nice, relaxing stroll was always a great idea in a cool afternoon. A light breeze ruffled her fur and caused leaves to dance. It was that time of day when everything was silent and serene. The sky looked dark, however, as if a harsh snowstorm would start soon. They still had time, she reasoned. They weren't that far from their den. She lovingly glanced over at Ivy, a small smile on her face. Her ears pricked up as sudden whimpers pierced the silence. She frowned and asked, "Do you hear that?"

Ivy's ears quickly picked up on the noise, stopping dead in her tracks. She looked over at Bramble, her eyebrows pulling together in concern, "That sounds just like pups, why would any pups be out here so close to a storm though?" Ivy said, trying to think of any new pups she'd seen recently, but coming up short. She looked up at the darkened sky, then back at Bramble, "Should we go see if everything's okay? it's probably nothing but I don't like the sound of that whimper." As she asked the question, another round of whimpers rang out.

[IcedAntimony]

"Come on, let's check to make sure they're alright." Bramble motioned for Ivy to follow her before sprinting towards the whimpering. Her paws thudded against the ground as she leapt over a fallen log. The air had become colder, and it now whipped at her skin. A quick glance up showed that dark clouds has gathered, almost completely blocking out the sun. A few flakes began falling here and there. She skidded to a stop beside a large tree. Under it's roots she spotted three pups, looking to be around two or three weeks.

Ivy fumbled to her stop, shaking a small branch out of her fur, some snow falling out with it. She was about to whine about Bramble’s faster sprint when she finally focused in on the pups, all huddled together, now shivering in the cold of the growing storm. Ivy quickly lifted her head in search of their parents, any sign that the three pups would soon be anywhere but stuck in the freezing snow. She looked over to Bramble, “we can’t leave them here they’ll freeze to death.” She gently padded closer to them, nuzzling the snow off their soft fur.

[IcedAntimony]

Bramble wholeheartedly agreed. She gently nudged one of the pups. It whined and tried to move closer to her, searching for warmth. The snow had begun falling steadily now. It would soon blanket the ground in a thick layer. How would they take them to the den? They could only hold one pup at a time.

"Should we stay here with them until the snow passes," she began, "or should we try to bring them home?"

[deleted-accuount]

Ivy considered their options. The only way to get the pups home was if one of them walked, but staying here in the snow seemed dangerous. She looked up at the sky and tried to figure out how bad the storm would be. If they didn’t leave soon, the third pup would freeze before they made it to their den. Without any other option Ivy began looking for something they could lay under to try to protect them from some of the snow.
“I think we have to stay here, but we need something to stay under.”

[IcedAntimony]

Bramble's gaze darted around frantically, searching for shelter. Perhaps they could use the roots... She began digging under the roots, trying to create a hollow space similar to a den. She dug slightly and, noticing that it seemed stable, dug faster.

"Help me dig!" She shouted over the screaming wind. The snowstorm had picked up, greatly transforming the once peaceful forest. Wind was pushing the snow into her eyes, and she could barely hear over the roar of the wind and snow.

Ivy quickly began digging with her, they needed enough room for both of them and pups to curl up, but if they did it right the pups could be tucked in between the two of them, hopefully forming a little incubator for them to stay warm. Ivy quickly moved each of the pups out of their way so they could continue digging. She hated to leave the pups in such harsh wind but know they had no other option if they wanted to complete their makeshift den. Her paws were now caked in dirt, her fur covered in snow. “I think it’s deep enough. We need to get in there, they’re already so cold.” Ivy called over the harsh wind, nuzzling the three whimpering pups.

[IcedAntimony]

Bramble slipped into the den-like hole and turned to face outwards. She grabbed each of the pups and nestled them close to her belly. She curled her tail around them and gently lay her head on them, trying to warm them up.

"Let your back face the snow," she called to Ivy.
