The frozen lake glittered under the winter sun, a rare calm for Hikariro, Ryuichi, Hiroaki and Adolfo, Ryuichi watched Adolfo, playing with a red ball on the ice like a little toddler. Despite the serene scene, Ryu's anxiety was evident; the ice seemed deceptively dangerous. Knowing that Adolfo didn't feel the cold and loved it, but still was worried that he may get injured.

Hika, leaning against a tree, offered reassurance. “You’re doing great, Ryuichi. Adolfo's got it."

Ryuichi added, “Haha..yeah, just hope he don’t get too adventurous, Captain.”

Hika chuckled lowly, “The wolf got energy. Let’s hope he doesn't take a dip.”

Hiro silently listened in and looked at them with a small hint of softness in his gaze, then back to the ground covered in snow.

Suddenly, a sharp crack shattered the calm. cracks surrounding in the ice and Adolfo. His laughter stopped. The ice beneath Adolfo gave way, and they fell into the dark, freezing water with a cut off loud yelp/wolf yelp. Ryuichi's heart dropped. “Adolfo!” he screamed, racing to the edge. Hika and Hiro's eyes widen.

“Hiro, rope and blankets!" Hikariro ordered. Hiro quickly grabbed the rope from their emergency supplies.

Hika then ran after Ryuichi behind him, very worried for his teammate.
