Maybe it's another chance to mock myself again

It wasn't often that the brute could say that he was completely unobservant. As a general rule, the earthen hued brute was very aware of his surroundings and was always on the lookout for danger of any sort. Today though he was so lost in his thoughts that he almost walked clear off the ledge. One moment he had been padding trudgingly through the woods, worrying over his lost sister, the next he was looking down a cliff into a deep ravine. His paws got so close to the edge that he could feel the every edge of the dirt crumbling under his step. He gasped and scrambled backward, tripping over his paws and landing on his back. He panted lightly as the adrenaline coursed through him, his heart racing from the sudden scare. He rolled back onto his paws, looking out over the ravine with wide, sea-foam green eyes. It was hard to see the drop if you weren't paying attention, thanks to the tall grasses and trees. He sighed and sat down on his haunches with a soft thud. "I really need to pay more attention..." he thought, cursing himself for getting so lost in his thoughts. The search for his sister was getting to be all consuming for him. This was just one example of why he needed to hurry and find her or accept that he was never going to see her again. He was starting to believe the latter. He stood and turned away from the ravine, walking back to one of the nearby trees and flopping down under it in the shade. What was supposed to do now? He looked around the area, seeing absolutely no one. He sighed and rested his head on his paws, letting his pale green eyes close. He didn't know what to do now. Life had thrown him a curveball and he had no idea how to catch it. Everything was slipping through his paws. He just hopped maybe, just maybe, life would cut him a break and make something turn his way. Thought Speech Others Companion |
