Arctic Wolf
The young cub awoke in the early hours of dawn, before his mother. This was not unusual, for the cub was adventuress and loved exploring the lair. As the cub's eyes adjusted, he saw the wall of light at the far end of the lair, since he was just born, his world was still blurry, and the outside of the lair was just a wall of light to him. Every time he tried to approach the wall, he was driven back by his mother's claws and fangs. Today was different, he had been awake for what seemed a long while, and his mother had not so much as stirred. So the cub headed for the wall of light, following some instinct deep down to explore and discover. Just as he reached the wall, he hesitated, because he had had many other encounters with the other walls, and he had the bruises to prove it. But there was something different about this wall, something unexplained, this gave him the slightest bit of confidence that he needed, and he stepped cautiously into the wall. When hi first paw went th!rough unharmed, he ventured his second front paw out, and finally, his head.

I sat back dazed, but I was allowed no time to rest, the hen attacked me with a flurry of wings and pecks from her beak, In rolled up into a ball and hoped the beating would stop. Then, all of a sudden, it did, with a loud squawk of anguish, the hen was lifted off of me. I looked up to see a great big hawk flying away w! When she had finished, I expected a warm reception, but instead, I got a vicious thump on the head and many nips along my body, but I knew it was her way of saying "I was worried sick", and "don't ever put me through that again". After that day, I didn't go outside for a while, and when I did, I learned to be wary of my predators. es to adjust to the daylight, but when I did, I was awed.
