Bah, I like them both!!

Summer was taken by surprise when his company took off to head deeper into the woods. A resplendant smile was quick to light up his face and his paws thrust him forward between the alabaster tree trunks in her wake. As he ran, he took in the sights as best as he could. There seemed to him to be nothing worrisome about about the forest; he got no ill feelings of foreboding as he raced along between the trees. It did not occur to him to try imagining the place when darkness fell, when likely the tall aspens would look like skeletal fingers reaching up out of the ground towards the sky and their bright bark would give the air below the branches a mystical almost eerie glow. For now, he was happily oblivious, simply enjoying the sense of adventure he got from following the flash of red that was his packmate.
Summer slowed to a stop at Red's side as they came across the lake, sucking in gulps of air for his throbbing lungs. His gaze went out along the surface of the water, which was still like plates of glass. Gentle ripples danced across the water like shimmering ribbons, winding their way to the lush shores, wrapping around cattail stalks and rich, saturated soil. The scent in the air was of earth and wet and sun, which gave Summer even more cause to sink into a sense of relaxed contentment as he stood, taking it all in.
The ebony youth nosed softly at his packmate's shoulder and strode forward towards the water, wanting to get a closer look at whatever little wonders were scattered along the shore. As he approached the clear waters, he spied flurries of minnows skittering around under the water like little slivers of silver caught in the tide. In a moment of juvenille excitement, he reached forward and pawed at the surface of the water at them, his smile broadening as they wriggled away. Turning, he whined eagerly at Red; an invitation for her to join.
