Feeling Lonely

[starlingshour]

She clung to the side of the large tree. The hand holds on the trunk made the hang easy on her muscles. Elisha was still quite new here and she had few aquaintances. Hopefully she would be able to change that within the next week or so because when you are lonely and sad depression isn't that far away.

The female sighed. She hadn't expected it to be all this hard to make her way in the new world. It had all seemed like heaven from 'over there'. Scampering up the tree she was able to move out onto a horizontal tree limb. Finding a comfortable spot she sat and scanned the forest floor below.

It was amazing how much activity you could see when you just took the time to look. Elisha seen ants lined up charrying food and a flower about to bloom. Mothers ran about with there kits and males tried to swoon the femmaes. It was all very serene.

It was about noon and her stomach began to rumble. Lazily she looked around for something decent to eat. Finally she was able to find some nuts and a few pieces of fruit. Holding them in her small paws. Taking a bite she smiled. The nuts were an excellent entree and the fruit made a wonderous desert.

☼Hazel Nut☼


Hazel entered the Riverdreys to find the place packed with activity. He looked over the usual "town square" of all squirrels in Vinidictive. "Apparently," Hazel thought to himself, "some new squirrels came over from the other lands today. I sure hope they're friendly." He fell on all fours and ran over to the huge oak to get a look around the place, after stopping to pick up a nut or two to stick in his mouth of course. It was a beautiful day outside, which was the reason Hazel was out in the Riverdreys.

He started putting paw after paw up the tree, climbing up it. He stopped at a nice strong branch and sat near the end of it, holding on a branch for balance and to get the best view of the place, all the while eating the nuts he found. He would usually come out here on sunny afternoons, like today. He watched all the natives talking to the new squirrels. "Well these new squirrels seem to be different then others, especially some of these squirrels that look so different." He mumbled to himself through the nuts.

He watched as one squirrel tried showing off to one of the strangers by trying some acrobatic tricks and ended up falling. Hazel chuckled to himself, he liked to think that most of the squirrels needed a teaching on acrobatics and agility, he knew that his father would probably have him doing the same thing over and over again until he got it right.

After finishing his nuts he started going back and looking for the best way down when he spotted a lone squirrel, that looked like one of the strangers, sitting on a branch. Hazel, being the good, kind type climbed down unto the branch the squirrel was sitting on. "Good afternoon. So I take it your one of the new squirrels that came from over the seas. Are you liking it so far here in Vindictive?"
