An easy friendship
If she remembered correctly this was one of the first places she had visited upon her arrival, or maybe not? She couldn't remember. But either way, the trek to the top of the cliff had been exhilarating, and exhausting in the heat of the day. As dawn rose, so did the temperatures much to her dismay, though it was still cool and enjoyable. The russet queen would lounge in the grasses, dozing occasionally, listening to the soothing sounds of the waves crashing below. It had been a few days since her run in with the albino King, but the only thing on her mind was Odette. She wanted to know that she had made it home safely. She committed it to memory that she needed to seek the girl out. Being from Valhalla would make it much easier on the red woman.
Tail thumped against the grasses as she stretched. She would need to go find some breakfast before it got to hot to do anything and yet, she was reluctant to move. It had been so peaceful here, no one bothered, the crashing waves soothed her busy mind. She had not seen her family in weeks, maybe even months. they had all vanished with her brother. A sad sigh slipped off her tongue. She should return to the island and seek them out. Her thoughts were interrupted by the soft approach of another, rocks slipping from beneath their paws as they made the climb. She would roll to her side, looking over her shoulder to identify the stranger. |
The cliffs was an area Odette had yet to explore. She was afraid of heights as a pup, for she had climbed a "large" grassy knoll in order to meet Baskilisk's eye level and couldn't climb down. In the end, the large purple male had helped her with a nip to her scruff and a quick descent was made to the sand. Just thinking of the purple brute made her close her eyes as she tried to remember his face. She knew he had grown already, perhaps into a more twisted and daring male than that first meeting. Oh, if only she knew!
When she remembered where she was, she stopped reminiscing and continued to concentrate. Odette was halfway between the ground and the top of the cliffs and she didn't want to fall to her death just yet. With determination, she continued to face upward and spring herself into each open crevice she could place her paws in. Strength waned in her front legs as she started to get tired, but she pushed herself with her hind legs until she felt the flat surface of the mountain appear. She had made it! |
A slow smile tugged at her lips. What were the chances? Her name rolled off the girls lips as she heaved herself onto the grassy ledge of the cliffs. The russet woman would pull herself up into a sitting position. Amusement glittered in her eyes as she watched the girl lay in a tired heap, jaws parted in a pant. "Hello, Odette, its nice to see you again." She would remain where she was, waiting for the girl to collect herself and come join her. It was undoubtedly an exhausting trip for those not in shape and evidently the girl was not. Her plume would curl around her, coming to rest on her toes. She would wait until Odette rose and came closer before speaking. "Climbing mountains still I see?" A small bit of laughter rolled off her tongue. Talk like this |

Odette had reached the top of the cliffs, and now she was splayed out on her belly. She couldn't help but pant as she tried to regain her breath while laying in that awkward position. As she rolled her head to the left, she opened her eyes and looked up at Sibelle's smiling face. The female was obviously amused by how out-of-shape Odette was and that would only fuel the desire for her to do better. Once the yearling recovered, she moved her paws under her stomach and rose to stand before taking a few steps forward. Laying down again, she shook her head all over and let her fur loosely ripple. A smile appeared on her face as she answered Sibelle's question. "Yes ma'am, I sure am!" She giggled in response to Sibelle's own laugh and she couldn't help but have her grin widen. "The challenge is definitely worth the work, even if I want to stop and lay down after awhile." She gave a light sigh and moved her front paws so one crossed over the other. "What brought you up here this morning? I am definitely curious." I speak |
She would move closer before settling down once again. As always, she spoke with such enthusiasm. It was contagious. She couldn't help but be in a good mood around the girl, she was always so happy and carefree. The girl was determined, wanting to improve.

"Enjoying it is definitely a good thing, I suppose," Odette said once she regained proper stepping before rolling on her back. "If I didn't have the motivation, I would look like a potbelly hog...and I don't want to look gross." She wiggled her nose in disgust with the image of her being heavily laden down with a round and swollen belly. Such a thing was astounding to the girl and she wondered why she would want it to happen. Her thoughts were erased as she cleared her throat and looked at Sibelle with an upside down gaze. "There is plenty to see up here," Odette commented. She let her ears perk as she caught the gentle chirping of birds that were starting to wake up. "Do you ever wish that you could be another animal? I wonder what it would be like to fly..." I speak |
