Spook had started picking up a bad habit. Well, sort of. It depends on your definition of bad habit, but he more frequently seemed to be waking up in the middle of the night. Not for any particular reason, but the world always seemed to be weird then, even though his parents and siblings were always nearby which should make him feel safe, he was still left with his own mind going out of its way to make things creepier. Who knew what was out there in the darkness.
However, this time he had wandered away. Not too far, of course, but far enough that he could go get a drink, assuming he didn't get turned around and freaked out in the darkness. Spook was doing his best to stay low and quiet, unobserved in the darkness -- whether he actually was successful at that is up to you. But he finally poked his wiggling nose out along the clear bank of the river, sniffing around before creeping up to the water and lowering his head to lap at the water.
And then there was a crunch. He jumped back from the waters edge more like a wildebeest than a wolf, wildly searching for whatever monster had to be approaching.
