The Snake and the Wolf

Jay White 5 stories

Summary

The trees were especially talkative this time of the winter..Brittle,stiff and naked from the colder elevations,the wind would cause them to make unearthly sounds that echoed through the forrest in all directions.Its like they were whispering sometimes,almost sounded more like hissing snakes at times so it was smarter to look just to be sure,just in case.The wolf considered snakes to be more dangerous than anything else in the Forrest. There were many other predators the wolf had to worry about,of course but most of them were bigger than him and easily seen or at least heard so he could escape or attack or even evade if need be.Not a snake.It moves so stealthily and sets so low,you can barely hear them coming usually and ones on this side of the mountain were highly venomous and prone to attack,Whether it be from hunger,self defense or just because it knows it can. The wolf knew not to underestimate those slithering bastards..
