Rachel moved out of the way of the snow clump and grabbed snow. The pup growled and jumped on Shen, trying to knock him down. Rachel threw the snow at Shen and got more snow and threw that too.

Shen looked at the pup as it tried to jump on him and got hit by the snow that Rachel threw. Shen nudged the pup playfully with his nose, almost knocking it over, before getting hit by the second bit of snow Rachel threw. (stop double teaming on me!) Shen then shook the snow off him and laid down. He didn't want to change back to his human form while the pup was awake. Human's almost always spooked wolf pups, especially ones they didn't know.

(lol, NEVER!)

Rachel laughed as Shen got hit due to the pup. "You surrender?" She said playfully. The pup laid down and Yipped before digging in the snow. He found ice and gripped it in his teeth. Rachel kicked snow at shen

Shen shook the snow off his head and looked at Rachel before burying his nose under one of his paws and giving an annoyed growl. He was starting to remember why he hated the snow so much. When he and Teia used to play in the snow like this, he always ended up getting sick.

Rachel put down the snow she had. "You ok?" she asked as the pup came out with a frozen stick. "Druid! Why is your stick covered in ice?" She scolded. "Bad boy!" The pup dropped the stick and yipped.

Shen kept his nose under his paw, but took it off his nose when Rachel scolded the puppy and gave a low growl. He was starting to think that maybe he was getting more accustomed to wolves rather than humans.

Rachel sighed and took the stick. It was very cold. "Sorry, he shouldn't have left his stick here..." she said to shen. She picked up the pup and petted him.

Shen lowered his head back down as Rachel picked up the pup. Thoughts started drifting through his head that, maybe after he destroyed the akatsuki, he'd leave the Stealth and live as a wolf. Shen gave a small shiver as a wind blew loose snow into his face. He laid his head on his paws and closed his eyes slightly.

Rachel sighed. She sat down as the wolf pup fell asleep again. The wind was cold on her bare hands. She lay down again, the pup on her stomach.
