A Chilly Rescue

 

It was a very chilly day coming home from Linnea's dance recital. Pauline and Hayden insisted on going to pick up their little sister today, since they haven't had a chance to ride their bike all winter. Linnea was excitedly chattering about her role as the Snow Princess when something happened....
THUNK

The bike stopped moving.




"Oh no!" exclaimed Pauline. Distracted by their sister, the siblings weren't paying much attention to the path they were traveling on. A large ice chunk had stopped the bike from moving, and they couldn't get it to budge.
"It's too heavy and I forgot my gloves!" cried Hayden. Attempting to move the ice block was starting to hurt his paws. Linnea started to cry...for such a small pup she sure could wail!


In the distance, at their ice cream stand, the penguin triplets could hear Linnea crying. "Quick, to the rescue!" yelled Rocky, "Someone needs our help! Hop in!"


They zoomed off as fast as they could in their snowmobile, towards the sound.



The triplets reached the Huskies quickly. "Are you guys okay???" asked Rocky.
"Oh gosh, yes? I mean no. We got stuck..this ice chunk is too heavy to move! Our paws keep getting too cold!"
Kippie stumbled over a few minutes later, "WE CAN FIX IT EASY PEASY" he yelled. But what he meant was his siblings could fix it, he didn't want to drop his ice cream.



"Okay. Hop on your bike and get ready to take off!" said Pearl. 
"One. Two. HUP!"
Rocky and Pearl picked up the ice chunk with ease and shuffled it over to their snowmobile.



"WOOOW...we can make a lot of ice cream with that!" Kippie said in awe.
"you silly, we don't make ice cream with ice! that's snow cones" laughed Pearl.
"Oh...WOOOOOOW we can make a lot of cone snows with that!" Kippie attempted to correct himself.
"you silly goose" laughed Rocky.
"I'm not a goose! I'm a penguin!" exclaimed Kippie
"It's just a phrase, Kippie, it means you're silly" explained Pearl
"hmmm....but I'm not a goose!!"





They continued bickering, oblivious that the Huskies were trying to thank them for their help.
Linnea sighed "can we just go? I can thank them at school tomorrow...they can bicker for hours! I've seen it!"
Pauline and Hayden chuckled.."yeah, let's get home before we find more ice!"

Thankful for their rescue, the huskies headed home, ready for some hot drinks by the fire in their warm and cozy home.

They also called the triplets' parents, to make sure they get home before dark....because like Linnea said, they can bicker for hours!

It was a chilly day indeed, my fingers almost froze off trying to pose these cuties for photos. I know it's been a long while since I've wrote a story...the creative brain hasn't been great. But I'm hoping to make a habit of it again. I hope you enjoyed! <3
