The dark before the dawn

He had had the most wonderful talk with voltage the day before and had warned his brother a little of what he was planning to do - and of course his brother would be a vital part of what came next.

It was some god early hour of the morning, the sun had not yet risen and he worked quietly under the cover of the night to set his plan in motion. He picked the sturdiest sunflower he could find for phaze one, and a softer toned and pretty one for phaze two.

With the sturdy one he started from the end point and made his way towards her fen, gently pulling off the flower petals as he moved. He couldn't help but add in under his breath with a soft laugh "she loves me... she lives me not" as he gently pulled off petal after petal and finished at their temporary prairie den. He then gently laid the husk of a flower at their door, putting a little blue stone on top (this was inspired by voltages love for collecting stones and to help Anais realize the flower wasn't there by accident)

He winked conspiratorially into the darkness knowing volt was out there somewhere waiting for the right time. Glacier then turned from the den and vanished back up the trial he had made, thankful for the total stillness of the night.  There wasn't even the hunt of a breeze and he knew his little trial would be safe. His part over for now,  he settled himself onto the cliff top that adjoined and was accessible to both the beach and the Prairie... and he waited.
