What are two little dots in a white surface??

Two misplaced Hell Hounds.

Ha

Ha-ha.

…

Never mind that…I think my brain just froze.

*Cough*

We looked up to the moon to guide us up north. By now two weeks had passed until we reached the cold mountains; and by then we had embraced our nocturne nature, after all, sneaking in a prey when you are black and the environment is totally white? Not I easy task I tell ya, unless is nighttime.

But there was something satisfying in looking at the horizon and simply choosing a path to go, with nothing holding us back, been able to go where our paws could carry us.

It was amazing.

Who said flying was freedom? Running around, going from field to field, up and down the mountains as we view the unique landscape, that was truly… breathtaking and heartwarming.

But I guess flying would be useful too… I could use one of those, you know?...

No?

Nothing?

Shit, it worked before.

Ding: … (that’s not how it works you lazy sh-)

Anyway, as for now we had our bellies down, unmoving in the middle of the foliage. My brother stayed farther away to my right to catch any runaway preys, as I close in more and more.

We were hunting rabbits, again, but these ones were chubby and bigger, and had wings on their backs and little horns on the forehead. At night they always went to their dens, and as they sleep we would go and close most of the entrances and holes with rocks and wood, letting only two entryways open.

Them my brother would go to one of these and start spiting fire inside, making them scared and confused with all the smoke and heat, and with only one way out.

Right into my claws.

We hunted them mostly because it wasn’t difficult; troublesome, yes, but not difficult; and to quickly have our bellies filled for another endless walk to the north. Today, however, was probably the last day since we already were very far in the snow and cold.

It was very harsh at the beginning.

It was like trying to keep a fire using damp wood in a cold environment full of wetness (snow). But to my surprise, at least, we didn’t lose HP, only suffered a lot as it got harder and harder to move and our muscles got heavier and contracted.

My brother didn’t mind though; the first signals of snow he started hopping around trying to catch its flocks with his tongue. I won’t denied that even I had some fun… I love the crunching sound that my paws made on the snow.

And my brother level up as well, level 10, but this time we were preparing to receive his evolution, finding a safe cave; we tried an igloo before, but it melted; and separating some food beforehand.

Not much though, as to not attract other predators. He would do it today, that’s why I was closing in the entrance to the cave with some low branches, saying:

“We have to choose wisely your evolution, it will completely change your affinity and abilities, so I was thinking we could analyze together what appears and see which one fits you better and… Little brother? Hunthor? Are you listening?”

Worried I went inside the cave only to find him passed out close to the food, his mouth open and droll coming out of it.

…

He didn’t…

He didn’t just choose his evolution without thinking and talking with me now, did he?

I put a paw on my face, frowning, taking deep breaths to calm down. He wouldn’t chose something stupid right? Like the poison one.

No, he totally would.

Ugh.

After two days of his resting I was able to see his new status.

…

I should have excepted that. A super-ultra-beacon evolution:

Didn’t know we could lose elements… and now he is a pure fire creature hum… discreet as hell I may add. When I used appraisal on his evolution this popped up:

Fire Hell Hound – Hidden Requirement – Have never used shadow abilities.

The outer appearance is greatly changed. The brown spots of fur will turn reddish and will catch on fire while casting magic, as well the tip of a long tail that will grow. All Fire magic related will have 5 level’s more than the basic level. Adds 20 MP for each Fire Magic related.

Downside: Will lose Shadow element, and will be more eye catching.

His like a living torch walking around, how are we supposed to hunt now?! Sigh… But now his Fire Ball is level 15… while mine is 8…

I’m level 18! What’s up with the difference!

Out of anger I spend the last day training my Fire Ball and Breath until a level up each one at least twice. Don’t care if anyone sees me! Need to train! Train train!

When he woke up I was like this:

We ate, my brother was still a little sleepy and hungry, so in the end we spend 4 days in that cave, ready to leave to hunt again.

That’s when something happened.

~~~~

Happy late Christmas!! Hope you all have ate like pi- queens and kings! Ha-haha.

Couldn’t write this past two days… (￣ε(#￣)

But got many ideas at least, hehe.
