Short story: Dasher gulped and looked at the wolves surrounding him. They were growling, their glimmering white teeth showing. His eyes darted from side to side but he couldn't find an opening in their circle. Ah, he thought to himself, how stupid I was to stay out so late! How will I get home now? He wondered if he'd even be in one piece. The wolves' eyes glowed coldly. They were obviously hungry; and he knew that a hungry wolf - any wolf, really - had no mercy. He breathed in deeply, trying to remain calm even as they pressed closer. He just had to come up with a plan. Think, think, think! He yelled at himself. They were coming closer, closer ... until the lead wolf was looking him straight in the eye. He knew he didn't have much time left.
Surprising no one more than himself, Dasher let out a yell of fury and charged at the wolf, his front hooves kicking dangerously. The wolf, startled, turned and ran. Dasher, half crazy with terror and anger, chased after him, sending all the wolves into a ruckus of confusion and excitement. They scattered away from him like bowling pins, and he gave chase.
Dasher chased the wolves as far as the icy mountain stream. There he paused to catch his breath. They sprinted away and out of sight, filled with confusion and fear. He shook his head, unable to believe what he had just done. "Wow..." he murmured to himself.
Then he turned and began the long route home. He knew he'd have an amazing - if unbelievable - story to tell that night. <3
