Springing Forward

Úlfr moved as slowly as he possibly could, taking one step and then another but it was just too hard to move that slow. He eventually got impatient and sprang toward the cricket, front paws diving down at the grass, but just as before he was too slow and the cricket bounded again out of his reach. Hmm… there had to be a better way to do this. He eyed the cricket perched on a branch when another woman approached. He glanced up, looking at his mother who didn't seem that bothered by the woman's presence.

"Hi!" He chirped, before turning his attention back to the cricket.
