It was a snowy day and all through the house, not a soul was stirring, not even a mouse. But when the first rays of the morning light peeked through. Three little children ran down to the living room.
In there little onesies they peeked out the window, pressing their faces on the glass and looking at all-white stuff around them.
"What is it?" asked the first, dressed in a skeleton onesie. He was an anxious thing and his name was Virgil.
"Something strange," answered the second, dressed in a snake onesie. He was the responsible one of the group and his name was Deceit.
"It's snow!" the third shouted dressed in an octopus onesie. He was chaotic and had boundless amounts of energy and his name was Remus.
"Snow?" Virgil and Deceit asked. The pure white thing was called snow?
"Yes, snow! Let's go play in it!" the chaotic one exclaimed. He ran upstairs and back down again. Carrying in his arms coats, gloves, and scarves galore.
"Remus," Deceit said, "It might be too dangerous."
"What? Snow?" Remus laughed and laughed. "It's not dangerous, now put on your gear and let's get going."
Remus as quick as a mouse dashing towards its home. Put on his coat, hat, gloves, and green and black scarf. Meanwhile, Deceit helped little Virgil put on his gear and made sure he was bundled tight. Deceit then took care of himself and soon was rather warm.
"Alright, let's head outside!" Remus shouted, grabbing their hands and leading them towards the door. Deceit was cautious and Virgil was worried. They had never been in something so snowy.
Remus threw open the door and jumped outside, landing on the porch where the snow didn't seem to be. Deceit grabbed onto Virgil's hands, determined to make sure he was safe. Who knew what dangers lurked within the pureness of the snow.
Remus who couldn't hold back anymore, let go of their hands and raced towards the snow. He jumped in without a second thought and started to wave his arms and legs around. Creating what he called, a snow devil.
Meanwhile, Deceit and Virgil stayed on the porch, peeking out from beyond their fort. Virgil squeezed Deceit's hand and he squeezed back. Knowing Virgil wanted to go out and explore.
"Let's go together," said Virgil with a smile. Deceit smiled back and together they walked out.
It was crunchy and certainly cold. Deceit understood why they had to be bundled until they were warm. Virgil picked up some snow and let go of Deceit's hand, forming the snow into a ball. He smiled and threw it at Deceit who laughed and grabbed his own handful. Shaping it into a ball and throwing it back at Virgil.
Soon the two were throwing snowballs back and forth. Remus joined them and together they played in the snow. Throwing the snowballs and laughing till their faces grew red. Creating snowman and making snow devils or angles, whichever you prefer.
After their bodies grew too cold they all ran inside the house. When they were back inside, who would have thought, three hot chocolates were waiting for them. They tore off their clothes and ran to the counter. Grabbing the hot chocolates and sip, sip, sipping them down.
It had been a snow-filled day and Deceit, Remus, and Virgil wasn't complaining. As they snuggled up on the couch with their onesies and their arms and legs in a tangle. Like three newborn kittens snuggling up on a blanket. They couldn't wait to see what tomorrow would bring. But for now, all their adventuring and playing had put the three little kittens to sleep.
