Finn feels like he is about to die

The snow flakes falling down from the sky above dropping all over his body

Even though Finn is wearing heavy clothing he feels extremely cold

He breathes heavily letting smoke come out from his lips

He goes up and down as the animal he is riding is going faster

His mouth feels extremely dry as his stomach is growling from hunger

He looks around at the very white forest trying to find some food

He feels his eyes grow frantic when he sees a huge house that has trees next to it

Even though the trees were almost completely covered by snow

His range of view sees the almost covered apples by snow

He uses his leather belt to hit his horse to stop

When the animal stops Finn gets off the saddle and jumps on the cold icy floor

He takes big steps on the snow getting closer to one of the trees

He looks around at the house trying to see if anyone is there

After not finding anyone he brings his gaze back to the apple tree

He looks at the very red apple that has ice flakes on it. Making it look so delicious

He licks his dry lips out of satisfaction

He then slowly reaches for an apple and grabs it

He brings it down and looks at it. And without thinking he takes a big bite

It's rich, sweet, mellow juice spills in his dry mouth

He gets surprised on how good it really tastes and takes another bite eager to taste it again

After finishing the apple Finn wipes the excess juice from his wool long sleeved jacket and throws the apple on the floor

He sprints to his horse and gets his satchel and goes back to the apple tree

He grabs a couple of apples and puts them in his satchel knowing that he will need more since he will make it home the following day

After Finn gets back on the horse guilt starts to build on him

'It's only a few apples. I'm sure the owner won't mind' Finn thought to himself after deciding if he should return it or not

He then hits his horse with the leather belt to start moving again
