She felt like they could be great friends if they all just played with each other for a while first. So right now she was trying to get Sno and Snowy to play with the ball! She watched as they got closer and closer, each one clearly trying to be the one who got there first. This would be close!
Snowy put on one last burst of speed and pounced on the battle, catching it between his front paws! Sides heaving after all that running, he rolled over onto his back with his paws and the ball up in the air. He'd done it! He chased the ball with two other pachee but he got it first! Maybe they weren't so bad if he was the fastest. That way, if he ever got scared, he knew he could still run away. He looked at the other two pachee who'd caught up to him by now, tilting his head at them curiously.
Sno slid to a stop right alongside Snowy. He was lucky he didn't slide into him, but he did his best not to because that would probably be mean. He flopped down on his belly, tired from all the running and chasing, and watched as Snowy lifted the ball into the air like a trophy. Haha, that was kind of funny. He waved his tail at the other pachee and gently nudged their shoulders together to congratulate him for a job well done. They both did their very best but Snowy got there first.

Sadie bounced over to Snowy to gently nuzzle against his head, pleased that he'd caught the ball! She was only a few steps behind the boys, but she'd stopped once she noticed one of them was about to get it. Now she could congratulate him! She was very happy they were all having fun and couldn't wait to play more!
Snowy seemed startled by all this attention. He didn't shy away or try to run and hide from it, though, which was good. He even nuzzled Sadie back a bit. Then he rolled around onto his belly and from his belly onto his feet, holding the ball up high. They! Could chase it again. But really that had been kind of stressful to chase the ball around like that, being worried he wouldn't get it back. So instead of just throwing it across the room, he dropped it gently right in front of Sno. It was probably his turn.
Sno bounced up to his feet in surprised when the ball bounced in front of him. On instinct, he pounced on the ball and held it down so it couldn't get away. Then he looked up with wide eyes at Sno, then Sadie, then back to Sno again. He... he got to play with the ball? He was so happy! He grabbed onto it tight then jumped to nuzzle Snowy again, so happy he had such a good friend that let him play with the ball! It was really a very nice one.

He wanted to play chase with it again! They had fun with it last time. So he tossed the ball! Not quite as hard as Sadie had, but hard enough.
Sadie was ready this time. The moment Sno threw the ball, she was on it! She pounced right on top of it and hide it under her, looking at the boys very proudly. She was so very please with herself for getting it first. She lifted the ball up shook it in the sky, then she gently tossed it to Snowy. She really liked chase and watching everyone run after the ball, but she wanted Snowy to show them how he liked to play with it! He was really nice and smart for finding this great toy for them to begin with.
Snowy watched as the ball bounced around a bit, jumping when Sadie caught it right away. He hadn't even had a chance to jump at it! She was really fast right away, but he was still sure he was a faster runner. Oh! And she was nice, too. He grabbed the ball when she threw it to him before it could bounce away. He looked around at the other pachee and wondered if this was what having friends was like. Maybe pachee he didn't know weren't so bad and he'd been scared for nothing earlier? Well. It was his turn to toss the ball and this time he bounced it HARD on the ground to it would go up very high.

It was one of those tosses where the ball would go up high, but it wouldn't go too far away because it was too busy going up and down to go all across the room. Unless it hit something, of course, in which case it would go on a mad dash ALL over the room.
This time? It hit the side of Sno's paw. He might have been trying to catch it, but instead of pouncing on it he tried to catch it in his paws and his paws weren't very good at catching bouncing balls. The ball bounced right off him and started bouncing across the room. Sno looked at the other pachee then took off after the ball, determined to be the one to catch it this time! He knew he could do it if he had a head start! Sadie hadn't even been close before!
Sadie, however, had wings. And she'd been holding back last time. This time, she spread her wings wide and took off after the ball as fast as she could, flapping all the while. She quickly overtook Sno and almost had it, but it bounced off Kadin's shoe and went off in the other direction. She slide across the floor before finding the traction to change direction, too, then she was flapping after the ball all the harder. THIS time she'd show them how fast she was! They were all friends now so it was ok if she showed off a little bit. They wouldn't mind.

Snowy was also going to try and get it! But since he was the one who threw it he was the furthest away when it started bouncing away. This actually turned out to be in his favor because when it changed directions on Kadin, he was able to turn around the fastest to go after it. And Sadie WAS fast, she might even be faster than him, but he was very good at chasing after this toy! He picked it out all by himself and it was his favorite so he was going to do his best to get it.
Sno was panting a bit to catch up. With his mane and antlers, he was actually heavier than the other pachee and it was harder for him to run after the ball all over like this! But he was doing his best. He didn't want to be outdone by Snowy and Sadie every time. So he lowered his head and charged as fast as he could after the ball and after Snowy. Sadie was in the back this time, but she was gaining on him fast. He could hear her wings flapping behind him.
Sadie actually did gain on Sno and actually got past him. Snowy was still in front, but if they just kept going for a little bit longer she was sure she could catch up! Though it was looking like she wouldn't get that chance. He was almost on the toy! Shoot. She wanted to show off this time.

But it looked like he would get there first. Oh well, that didn't bother her too much. Once she saw Snowy get the ball, she pounced on him playfully and rubbed her face against his, trying to playfully wrestle the ball away from him. He wouldn't win that easily!
Sno picked up on the same idea. It took him a few more strides to catch up, but once he did, he jumped in with Sadie and Snowy and rolled around with the other two, having a blast. Chase and running and jumping were all some of his favorite things, but wrestling was a lot of fun, too! Especially when there was a prize when you won. So he tried to get the prize from Sadie and Snowy, going for the ball even though the other two got there first. They might be fast, but he was strong!
Snowy, meanwhile, wasn't sure what to do under these TWO pachee. They weren't hurting him. Actually, they were being very nice and playful. They didn't try to step on his tail or pull on his ears. They were really just nudging him and each other around trying to get to the ball. So, of course, he couldn't let them have it! He tucked the ball under himself, tucked himself down low, and shook his tail around to try to way them off. It was his ball! He got it first and he would keep it! They were playing a fun game but HE wanted to be the winner!
