The River
This river runs through Moonpack territory and tumbles over a ledge into a waterfall. It is overrun with salmon during Newleaf and very early Greenleaf, and presents a temptingly juicy place to find prey. Beware, though. The river narrows into a rather deep gorge near the middle, and poses a threat to any wolf who might accidentally slide in.

She races in and splashes into the river, easily resisting the flow. Amber then starts rampaging through her jaws snapping in hope of catching a fish but she wasn't really trying, just having fun and waiting for Sky.
ReplyDeleteHe jumped out from the forest laughing with amusment. "Having fun?" Laughs more and splashes into the river laying down in the shallow end.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber races past Sky in leaps and bounds making sure she gets as much water on Sky as she can.
ReplyDelete(From the Nursery)
ReplyDeleteGentleheart led Honey through the water until they reached a small bend. "Look here, now," she told her friend's Pup. "If you stand here, the salmon will run right towards you." She demonstrated and quickly caught a fat salmon.
"Cool!" Honey wagged her tail and bounded in the water. A baby salmon swam slowly through the water.
"Now!" cried Gentleheart. Her heart swelled with pride when Honey scrambled up the bank, her mouth full. "Well done!"
He jumped back as water splashed him. "Bleh!" He tried to clean the water from his pelt. "Hmm..." He shrugged. I will get wet anyways! He bounded into the deepest part of the river and paddled threw.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She bounded ahead to what she thought was the river. "If this isn't the river, then i'm not a wolf!" She laughed and splashed threw the shallow part of the river as she saw Sky and Amber together. Im happy for him. Im glad he has someone. She watched her friend for a minute longer and waited for Thunder to show her the shallow part for 'beginners' as he called it.
~Alado
(LOL)
"Hey Alado! Over here!" he called to a small section of river that was cut off to make a small clear pool. "See its not that bad, the middle will probably go over your shoulders." he waded in "C'mon! Not scared are you?"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Gentleheart led Honey up the bank. The two of them crouched over the salmon, and then Gentleheart saw Sky, Thunder and Alado. She nudged the larger salmon towards them.
ReplyDelete"Hey!" she called. "Want this salmon?" She wasn't hungry and she wanted Honey to have her salmon.
Sky looked over to Gentleheart. "Maybe! I will see if I can catch one myself first! If I can't which I won't be able to because i'm such a bad hunter then yes!" He laughed.
ReplyDelete~Sky
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She looked over to Gentleheart. "No thank you." And splashed her was towards Thunder. "Of course I'm not scared!" She laughed and waded in a little deeper til the water reached her chin.
~Alado
"Do ya know how to swim?" he said paddling around the tiny pool hradly big enough for both of them. He smiled and swam circles.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
She smiled. "Yes I do. Well a bit." She swam to the deepest part of the pool and ducked under coming back a few seconds late with a small fish in her jaws. "Do you want some?" She swam towards Thunder and dropped the dead fish infront of him.
ReplyDelete~Alado
He swam some more "Then you wouldn't mind going to the actual river?" he taunted "And no I don't want any fish, you can have some if you want some though, I mean you caught it!"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
She laughed. "Ok!" Eats the small fish and licks her lips. "I'd love to try the real river!" She smiled and looked at the rushing water where Sky, Amber, and Gentleheart were.
ReplyDelete~Alado
"Great!" he climbed up a short rock that jutted out into the river. "In coming!" he yelled running and flying into the air. He plunged into the deepest part of the river. He kicked out strongly paddling underwater for a bit, flaunting his talent of holding his breath. Finally his head bobbed up and he paddled to the shallow parts giving his pelt a good shake, looking quite like a sodden squirrel.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
"Thunder?" She called as she seen him dive under the water and not come up for some time. "Oh! That's cool!" She laughed. "Trying to impress?" She teased and launched herself off of the rock and diving into the cool water. She was underneath to cool blanket and paddeling underneath and soon came up beside Thunder. "That was fun!" She laughed again and shook her pelt.
ReplyDelete~Alado
Amber smiled and nuged Alado playfully, "Who is this alado?" She barks indacating Thunder veiling the true meaning behind the words, Thunder and Alado sitting in a tree KISSING...
ReplyDelete(XD)
"Not trying to impress. . . Just showing you what I can do!" He shook his pelt some more send droplets of water raining down on Alado and Amber. "Oh hi Amber!" he barked friendly.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Gentleheart nodded and nudged the salmon away, before tucking in with Honey.
ReplyDelete((XD *facepalm* Lol Amber. Wolves don't kiss.))
ReplyDeleteAmber wagged her tail happily,"Hi"4
ReplyDelete(XD I know I mean the little song:
______ & _______ sitting in a tree K.I.S.S.I.N.G!)
(Lol)
ReplyDelete"Hi Amber!" She smiled happily. "Oh this?" She looked at Thunder. "Is Thunder. You know him!" She laughed and sat down while she got splattered by water drops. "I don't care! Im already wet!" She laughed again and shook her own pelt.
~Alado
_______________________________________________
He walked up to Amber, Alado, and Thunder. "Amber leave them alone!" He laughed and pressed against her with a smile.
~Sky
"Wait what? What do you mean by 'them'?" he shifted from paw to paw the smiled "Did'ya see how far I went down?! I almost touched the bottom!"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
She laughed. "Thunder. I think i know but I don't think so. And yes I did see how far you went now stop bragging!" She laughed and cuffed him lightly over the ear.
ReplyDelete~Alado
"What?" he said throughly confused. "And I am not bragging! I am just telling you what I did"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Amber laughed and licked Sky on the cheek, "You where showing off for Alado!"
ReplyDeleteShe laughed.
ReplyDelete~Alado
Sky smiled. "Well I don't watch other wolves so I don't know!" He laughed.
~Sky
(Sorry I'm not typing a lot! I'm REALLY sore :( )
"Hmm?" his murmur was slightly part of a growl.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
She flinched. "S-something wrong?"
ReplyDelete~Alado
Amber nuged her friend gently then gets up anf flicks Thunder with her tail, "Oh lighten up Thunder, we are only teasing!"
ReplyDeleteHe crinkled his eye brows "Hmm I guess nothing! Wanna go do something else?" he skipped around Alado and Amber.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
"Sure." She muttered half-heartedly. I knew he didn't like me in that way I didn't know he hated me...
ReplyDelete~Alado
He rolled his eyes. Why is love so dificult? He sighed and sat down next to Amber. "Is something bothering anyone?" He glanced at Alado, and then Thunder. "No need to be snippy."
~Sky
"Snippy! Gosh! I just wanna do something, maybe a nap. . .My paws have been aching actually for awhile, mostly from being lazy!" he laughed his eyes gleaming, not at all getting what Alado was worryied about.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
He rolled his eyes and sighed. Even the he could figure out Alado's mood. "Are you ok Alado?" He asked with worry.
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Huh? Y-ya.." She shook her head to get rid of her thoughts. "I'm fine." She looked at Sky with a smile. "Thank you." Atleast some wolf is nice... She sighed and padded away from the other wolves. "I'm going to sleep." She walked to the hunter's den without looking back.
~Alado
He frowned and his tail drooped. "What did I say?"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Amber frowned and nudged Thunder forcefully in the direction of the hunters den where Alado had gone, "Don't just stand there like a stunned mullet, go after her!" She urged.
ReplyDeleteHe held in his laughter. When Amber did something, she did it. "I don't know but you better make it right."
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Wait but why? Whats wrong?" he said confused stumbling to a stop after the nudge.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
He rolled his eyes. Could this wolf be less blind?! "You don't get it do you?" He turned to Thunder.
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Thats what I have been saying!" he muttered.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
"Well you need to talk to her. Maybe you will figure it out." He replied sharply.
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Figure what out?? Why dont you just tell me?"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Amber rolled her eyes and this time niped thunder on the shoulder, not to draw blood or to hurt too much but just to give him a shock, "You made her upset I bet she thinks you don't like her, GEEZ do we HAVE to spell it out?"
ReplyDelete"Well done." He chuckled and trotted over to Amber. "I don't understand she-wolves a lot because i'm not one," he nudged Amber. "but she's one and im sure she knows!" He laughed again.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber gave a purfect wolfy smile despite just biting Thunder.
ReplyDelete"Ow!" he jumped up his back paws landing in the water then he jumped back up from the shock of getting wet. "I don't like why wouldn't I like her?"
ReplyDelete~Thunder
"I don't know. Ash her not me." Sky challenged.
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Okay then?" he cocked his head to the side and pranced along the small patches of grass and to the camp, then to the hunters den.
ReplyDelete~Thunder
Amber rolled her eyes, "Finally! Can't beleive it took him THAT long to figure it out!"
ReplyDeleteHe chuckled. "I know. But I wonder what's going to happen.." He turned to Amber. "Do you know?" He asked.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber smiled, "Well, I am going to sit here with you while Thunder tries not to mess things up!"
ReplyDeleteHe smirked. "Good idea!" He chuckled and sat near Amber.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber laughed and layed down staring to the rast running river, watching the fish swim through it.
ReplyDeleteHe smiled and pressed to Amber. "I don't wanna swim anymore! I wanna sit in the sun!" He grinned.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber smiled up to Sky and lookss back down to the river as something big catches her eye, it was a large cat-fish and on impulse snaped at it, to her surprise she caught it hauling it up as it thrashed around trying to get back into the river.
ReplyDeleteSky saw Amber's quick movement with amazment. He spotted the fish still alive and quickly slapped it's head with his paw hard enough to kill the fish. "That was fun!" He laughed and pusehd the fish towards Amber. "Your fish, your food." He offered.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber smiled, "Thanks! It's really big, wanna share?" She says, nudging the fish between the two of them.
ReplyDelete"Sure." He licked his lips hungerily but let Amber have the first bite. "You caught it, it's yours."
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber smiled and took a small bite out of the cat-fish and let the juice run down her chin.
ReplyDeleteHe chuckled. "We have a messy hunter here!" He barked. "Oh. I know how to get you clean." He smiled mischieviosly and pushed Amber into the river. "Look she's clean!"
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber yelped and leaped out laughing and shaking herself then she grabs Sky and pulls him in, "Now you try and catch a fish!"
ReplyDelete"No way!" He gasped and splashed into the river.
ReplyDelete~Sky
"Yes!" she yelled and leaped on top of Sky but not pushing his head down.
ReplyDelete"Oof!" He muttered as she landed on him. He swm under the water and came back up splashing Amber. "Hah!"
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber leaped up and down, creating wave after wave, "HA! Can't beat me!"
ReplyDeleteHe rolled his eyes and swam towards Amber. "How about we get out of the water and do something else?" He asked. "Maybe hunt, explore, anything! Maybe Three Tree Cliff." He suggested.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Amber waded out and shook herself, sending sheets of water in every direction, "We could explore somewhere, isn't there a swamp on this territory?"
ReplyDelete(There is Ash and Twister at Three Tree Cliff, would be kinda weird)
His eyes twinkled. "The swamp? Yes I've heard of it! Lets go!" He smiled.
ReplyDelete~Sky
(Lol okay)
Gentleheart and Honey had finished eating. The two of them padded back towards the nursery.
ReplyDeleteAmber laughed and raced to the swamp leaving a trail of water behind her.
ReplyDelete(next post at the swamp)
Skeet skidded to a halt flicking his tail to the river. "Ladies first!"
ReplyDeleteTwister trotted up behind him.
ReplyDelete"You got it!" She made a quick jump, purposefully splaying out her legs so she would make a nice smack on the water, and splashed in. The water sprayed everywhere - a bit showered onto Skeet. Laughing, Twister lifted her chin slightly and dogpaddled as the water flowed around her. "Your turn!"
Skeet shrugged off the water, letting it drip down his chin and tail. "Your doing to wish you didn't say that!" he growled playfully bounding down a small rock jutting out of the water. With a couple of quick steps he leap out his damped fur streaming behind him. He curled into a ball mid-air and SPLASH he landed in the water with a giant wave of water that reached up and surged around Twister.
ReplyDelete"?!?!?" Twister was bowled under the water for a moment. Suddenly she refurfaced, hacking water. Her ears, weighed down with all the water, flopped into her face.
ReplyDeleteShe made a note to herself to try jumping like that next time.
"Raar!" She cackled, still coughing up a bit of water. She gave her ears a shake, sending them out of her face, only to have them fall back again.
"Hah!" Skeet howled with laughter "You look like a sodden rabbit!" he paddled over to her giving a quick lick to her ear. Skeet quickly plunged back under the water swimming under the water.
ReplyDelete"You're one to talk!" Twister yipped back. "YOu look like a rat! A soaked, gray rat!"
ReplyDeleteShe kicked her legs a bit and paddled after him. She dipped her head under the water too.
Suddenly a fish smacked into her face.
"Aaaaah!" She thrust her head above the water. "What are the odds?!?!?"
Skeet re-surfaced "Hah! Why didn't you catch it, it was right their IN your face!" he fell backwards laughing and howling. Then couched at choked as water filled his mouth.
ReplyDelete"You just got your answer!" Twister barked back, now cracking up.
ReplyDeleteReally, that was only half the truth. She hadn't been paying attention, either. Water in her face was a small issue.
He looked back at Amber. "I'm wierd? Where is the little white wolf behind that mask of dirt?" He chuckled and dove into the water.
ReplyDelete~Sky
Sleet coughed up the remaining water "Ugh, it tastes like dirty fish!" he swiped at his nose to stop the burning off the water.
ReplyDeleteTwister cackled. "It has fish IN it! Whadidya expect?" She plunged her head under the water again, only to resurface quickly to avoid being slapped with another fish.
ReplyDeleteThe water was starting to chill her a bit. Soon the sun would be setting, and being wet during the rather cool night wasn't a nice thought.
Twister started for the bank.
"Leaving so soon?" Skeet yipped plunging into another wave, paddled around Twister always out of reach.
ReplyDelete"Gah!" Twister choked on the water again and spat out a tiny fish. "Yes! I'm cold!" She kicked her legs a bit and soon could feel the edge of the bank at her pawtips.
ReplyDeleteSkeet smiled a tugged on Twisters tail, making her slip a bit "Whats wrong? The bank a bit slippery?" he asked innocently.
ReplyDeleteTwister lost her footing and smacked into the water with a comical ker-splash.
ReplyDelete"Slippery! Bah humbug!" She cackled again.
((I really need to find a different word. 'Cackled' is getting old, but it's the best word to describe her weird laugh. XD ))
Amber smiled at sky and sliped into the water feeling the dirt and grime fall away.
ReplyDeleteSkeet smiled innocently "Why don;t we go up a little ways and see if their is a less slippery way for you" he flashed a crooked smile, only one part of it up and the other part down.
ReplyDelete"Sure, sure," Twister barked over her shoulder, scrabbling out of the water and onto the bank. She caught a glimpse of his smile, and her heart just about melted. How cute...........
ReplyDeleteSkeet nodded and hauled himself up onto the bank "Now what do we do now?" he said gruffly, his fur already beginning to fluff out.
ReplyDelete"Dry off!" This said, Twister flopped onto her side, rolled onto her back, and squirmed and wriggled around. Her back had an itch and she was desperate to get rid of it. Not to mention that she enjoyed doing that anyway.
ReplyDeleteSkeet eyed his with his crooked smile "Er, what are you doing? You look like a worm!" he laughed poking her in the ribs with a sharp jab.
ReplyDelete"Itching my back...." Twister mumbled as she rolled once more.
ReplyDelete"Eh!" She let out a quick breath from a sudden jab in the ribs and scrambled up. Grass covered her black and white pelt, making her look rather comical.
"What was that for?" She barked, although her grin proved that she really wasn't that annoyed.
Skeet shrugged and looked over her, the grass sticking up and out of her ears and fur. The still wet patches stuck up in untidy clumps "Just wondering if you were okay"
ReplyDelete"What, it's not like I'm allergic to water! That's for cats." Twister giggled. She gave her fur a shake, sending damp bits of grass everywhere.
ReplyDelete"Bleh!" Skeet growled flicking a damp glob with his tail "Could ya puh-lease keep your wetness away?" he flicked the glob towards Twister ad it landed with a plop on Twisters front paw.
ReplyDeleteTwitching one paw, Twister shook it off.
ReplyDelete"Same goes for you!"
"Fine fine, I'm not getting you wet anyways!" Skeet pointed out, laying down on the grass, his wild grey fur pointing out in all directions.
ReplyDelete(OPPS Im sorry I didn't comment here LOL)
((Lol it's okay. XD ))
ReplyDeleteTwister chuckles. She stretched her paws out in front of her and flopped on her side again. "What now?"
"Hmm" Skeet murmured "I don't know . . ." he yawned, his eyes closing and tongue lolling out. "What would you do if . . I weren't here?"
ReplyDelete"Absolutely nothing, like I am right now." Twister stretched her paws out in front of herself.
ReplyDelete"Nothing?" Skeet murmured barley lifting and eyelid to look at Twister.
ReplyDelete"Well, just lying here." Twister flicked the end of her tail lazily.
ReplyDelete"Lazy" Skeet muttered closing his eye again, curling his legs under him.
ReplyDelete"Hmph. You should talk." Twister grinned slightly. "Nice day, isn't it........"
ReplyDelete"Yeah sure, whatever" Skeet grunted pulling up into a sitting position, his crooked grin flashing across his face.
ReplyDeleteTwister did her best to keep her heart in a relatively normal shape as it melted again. She too sat up, stretching her body upwards and tilting her head so that her nose pointed at the sky. It felt good to stretch in that odd position.
ReplyDeleteOff in the distance, there was a faint rustling in the bushes.
Skeet ears flicked towards the sound but he didn't take his eyes off the weird expression Twister seemed to have "Um, er, prey?"
ReplyDelete"Huh?" Twister looked over at him sharply. "Whaddaya mean?"
ReplyDeleteSkeet looked at the bush and narrowed his eyes "Can't you hear that?"
ReplyDelete"Hear what?" Twister tilted her head slightly at him. Suddenly one of the bushes at the egde eof the clearing moved violently.
ReplyDelete"YIPE!" Twister positively jumped at least three tail-lengths in the air. She pressed close to Skeet, quivering slightly. "WHAT WAS THAT?!?!?"
Skeets eyes widened and he stepped back "I don't know. . . ." he murmured his eyes wandering to his pelt where it touched hers then back to the bush. "Let go!" he stepped back two pawsteps not taking his eyes off of the bush.
ReplyDeleteThe bush rustled again, and a pair of dark, malicious eyes gleamed from it's branches. There was a low, grating, rasping sound, as if it was a growl from a creature that hadn't had anything to drink in a moon.
ReplyDeleteTwister turned tail and fled.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S GONNA EAT US ALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!! MAYDAY! MAYDAY! LET'S ALL DANCE AROUD THE MAAAAYPOLE!!!!!!"
Still yowling nonsense at the top of her lungs, she glanced over her shoulder once to see if Skeet would follow.
Skeet jumped back "Clam down Twister!" he growled. He turned tail and fled after her then an idea occurred to him.
ReplyDelete"Don't lead it to camp! Even if it doesn't follow us, it might sent for us later! Head to the swamp!" he growled, knowing this wasn't the best plan.
Twister didn't give any evidence that she heard him, except for the fact that she made a sharp turn and headed directly for the swamp.
ReplyDeleteStarting to feel a bit more relaxed now that the evil thing in the bush was far away, she slowed her pace and glanced back at Skeet, She suddenly realized what exactly had just happened, and what she had just done, and started feeling like an absolute idiot.
((XD))
Skeet felt relaxed also as he skidded to a stop by an old and muddy tree. Panting heavily, he flicked a glob of mud off of one of his paws.
ReplyDelete"Um, well, now I know never to surprise you,eh?" he chuckled and drew in another long breath.
If a wolf's face could turn bright red, twister's would have. She shuffled her paws uneasily. "Ahem..........yeah......................."
ReplyDeleteSkeet shrugged then turned around "Thats just fine with me, now are you too afraid to turn and go back to camp? Or would you like to dance around the Maypole?" he snickered looking back at Twister with a smirk on his face.
ReplyDelete"I'm not afraid!" Twister retorted. She put on a fake scowl. "And actually, dancing around Maypoles is quite enjoyable if you watch what you're doing."
ReplyDeleteShe stuck her tongue out at him.
(Whooops! Sorry for not replying!!)
ReplyDeleteSkeet shrugged and stuck his tongue back at her. "C'mon, Twister. Lets head back, umm. Where'd ya want to go right now?"
((Lol that's okay))
ReplyDelete"Prey-pile?" Twister suggested. "I'm kinda hungry.....course, we could always catch something here." She wagged her tail. "Bet I can beat'cha back to the camp..."
Skeet laughed, a deep bass. "Sure sure you can!" he laughed again, a low rumble this time. "Lets hunt around for a bit, then we can head over their. Sound like a plan?" he asked, tongue lolling out of his mouth.
ReplyDelete"A pretty loose plan, but it'll do anyway," Twister giggled. Suddenly she piped, in a slightly hushed voice, "Squirrel!" and darted away into the undergrowth.
ReplyDeleteSkeet rolled his eyes as he watched her disappear into the brambles. What have I gotten myself into he almost growled out-loud. Then a slow smile spread across this face.
ReplyDeleteAt least he wasn't Rouge! He almost laughed, his eyes twinkling. That old bag of bones was far worse then him!
With a last chuckle he set after Twister. "Hey! Did you get it?"
The bushes rustled suddenly, and Twister emerged from them, head held high as she proudly carried a pair of squirrels by their tails.
ReplyDelete"Mm-hm!" Her voice was muffled by the fur. "Hungry?"
"Wow, that was quick!" Skeet looked at the two squirrels while his belly snarled in hunger. "You eat first, you caught them"
ReplyDeleteTwister dropped the squirrels at her paws. "I'm a hunter, genius. This is what I do!" She grinned. "One squirrel is good for me, you can hork down the other one."
ReplyDelete"And hork I will!" Skeet grumbled taking a giant bite of squirrel, still thinking deeply. He sat down then soon slid down until he was laying down on his belly.
ReplyDeleteTwister got ahold of the other squirrel by the base of its tail and shook it violently, making little growling and yipping sounds as she did so.
ReplyDelete"Die squirrel, die!"
((XD))
Skeet raised his eyebrows watching her shake the squirrel dangling in her mouth.
ReplyDelete"Hasn't any on told you not to play with your food?"
Skeet smiled, a more complete smile then the others, and grumbled a low laugh.
"Huh?" Twister looked up, the squirrel still dangling from her jaws. "Oh....er...." she shuffled her paws. "The squirrel was...." she lifted her chin, still gripping the tree rodent. "The squirrel was mphl mph!"
ReplyDeleteHer last words were muffled by the tail in her mouth and couldn't be understood.
"Uh, huh. Okay" Skeet nodded businesslike "I see." he laughed again picking up his squirrel taking another giant bit out of it.
ReplyDeleteTwister went back to shaking whatever life was left out of the squirrel
ReplyDeleteSoon she had torn it apart and was eating with gusto.
Skeet eyed her again but didn't comment this time. Instead he started thinking to himself, deep rooted questions.
ReplyDeleteHe stared blankly at Twister, buried in his own thoughts.
(Grr! My 'h' key isn't working good! LOL)
((Lol XD))
ReplyDeleteTwister finished off the squirrel with a flourish. She looked up to see Skeet staring at her.
"Hi?"
Skeets eyes refocus "Oh, hi. Were you talking to me? Did I miss anything?" he blinked again, his brows furrowed in concentration.
ReplyDelete"You didn't miss anything except me eating," Twister replied. "What'cha thinkin' about?"
ReplyDelete"Nothing that you need to know of!" Skeet said cheekily. "Well, actually, I was just thinking about Rouge and Moonshine and Clawface and. . .you I guess" he added the last part nonchalantly.
ReplyDelete"Mmm..." Twister replied thoughtfully. Then she giggled. "Rogue and Clawface. Ha!"
ReplyDeleteShe flicked one ear. "Moonshine's certainly an interesting character, huh?"
"Yeah, I guess. . . ." Skeet murmured, his eyes still blank.
ReplyDelete"Anyways anything else you want to do?" he shook his head, dazed.
((WTH?! my post disappeared!!!))
ReplyDeleteTwister shrugged. "I dunno..." She grinned suddenly. "Race you back to camp!" With this said, she took off into the trees.
"Hey! Wait up!" Skeet mock-growled as he started off towards her. Heart thumping un-evenly, he was soon tired out. "Wait up! Twist-" he wheezed "-er!"
ReplyDeleteTwister slowed her pace slightly, hearing the unusual breakup of the sound of her name.
ReplyDeleteShe glanced back over her shoulder. "You all right?"
"Fine, just tired. I've been chasing you around all day!" Skeet wheezed again.
ReplyDelete"Good point." Twister stopped completely. "Okay, I'll give it a rest if it makes you any happier."
ReplyDeleteSkeet blew past her, surprised with her sudden stop. In a few heart-beats he trotted back slowly to where she stood. "Thanks!" he coughed.
ReplyDelete
