2. OMFG THAT SNOWMAN IS MADE OF SNOW CHARGGGGGGGGEEEE
Barreling up the hill once again, you bark excitedly, forgetting you can speak in the heat of the moment.
The boy, annoyed, bends down once more, but this time, instead of simply rolling the snowball at you down the hill, he picks up a handful of snow, and throws it at you like a baseball.
However, you leap to the side, having learned from prior engagements.
The Boy raises an eyebrow, and stands waiting.
Happily wagging your tail, you charge toward him, stumbling a bit.
You are nearly halfway when the snow suddenly gives out beneath you, leading to an ice shoot that spits you out right back at the bottom of the hill, next to Rainbow, all spread eagled on the ice.
"Puppy, you cannot scale the hill in this way," Rainbow says, sighing.
You scramble to your feet, slipping on the ice, frantically pedaling and then collapsing again pathetically.
"Listen to my words, oh pure and brave canine," says the trout, "so that you may gain the wisdom you need to escape this place."
"That bunny was REALLY big!" you say.
"Yes," replies Rainbow. "Yes, he was. But listen. In order to escape this place, you must overcome three trials. The trial of Courage, the trial of Mindfulness, and the trial of Integrity."
You look at the trout somberly. "What does 'indegratty' mean?"
"You must discover these things for yourself, Puppy, for I am but a guide," Rainbow says.
"Oh my god, when the light bounces off your scales it looks pretty! Like a color beam!"
"Yes, this is true," says Rainbow. "You have a keen mind. And your courage and integrity are not in question. I'm sure you will succeed in escaping this place and fulfill your destiny."
"OK but I can't get to the top of that hill, because I keep falling down," you say, frustrated. "And that boy has mittens!"
"Indeed, the trials are not designed to be easily overcome, puppy. But I am confident. You are pure of heart," Rainbow says, and flicks his tail and vanishes back into the water.
"Wait! Come back! You're shiny!" you say to the hole in the ice.
Shortly thereafter, another angry snowflake drifts by your face. You stick out your tongue and catch it, gently.
"Blasted puppy!" it says, eyebrows creased. "By what right do you prevent me from joining my fallen brothers and sisters in the great expanse below?!"
"You tase lie waher," you say.
Suddenly, a snowball crashes into you from behind. The snowflake is dislodged and falls happily to the snow. You turn, yipping, to see the boy standing atop the hill, dusting off his hands of snow and snickering. The snowman is now complete, and stares over the surrounding land like a king surveying his domain.
"OH MY GOD, THAT SNOWMAN HAS A PIPE IN HIS MOUTH I AM GOOD AT HOLDING THINGS IN MY MOUTH."
The boy bends to pick up another snowball, and you begin to climb the hill once more.
