Chanel giggled lightly as Sugar's paw broke the thin layer of ice with the lightest touch. She looked down at her reflection: a beautiful young girl, with some blood splattered upon her face. The girl wasn't particularly eager to dip herself in the cold water, only eager to wash herself.

She braced herself as best she could for the temperature of it, and yet her teeth clenched as she dipped her paw in, and stepped right into the cold stream. She shivered as she splashed water upon her face and chest, and even submerged her head in the water with her eyes closed and breath held for a moment, to be thorough. Chanel glanced up and made eye contact with the girl as she thanked her for her company. 

"Of course, Sugar! I'm glad I got to meet you today. Hopefully I can meet the other Firebirds soon too." She said enthusiastically. She was eager to settle into the pack well, and one of the most important steps to this was accquanting herself with the members who served as the foundation of the group.
