Beachfront Property
Cicero!

As tended to be the case, Cicero had followed her siblings wherever they went. Most times she was right on their tails. This time it was in the same general direction. She'd ended up wading through muck and getting wet and dirty. It wasn't what she wanted to do with her time, so she found her way onto a beach. At least sand was a little less blech than muck and mire. With a growling stomach, the little, dark lady got to work. She inspected the various tide pools and found one that would suit her needs. Being Cicero though, she couldn't make it easy. She needed to experiment. How malleable was the mind of a fish? She'd set about digging a channel in the sand that stretched from one sandy edged pool to a place several feet away where she sat. Cicero collected a pile of rocks, placing them near the head of the channel. Then her experiment began. One at a time, the young woman threw the rocks into the tide pool. They made an audible splash each time. In a panic, a few of the fish escaped into the channel that she'd dug. Ooh, interesting. Again and again she tossed rocks, leading the fish closer and closer to her awaiting jaws. In time, she had not one, but two fat fish sitting on the sand beside her. Well... it had been time consuming and somewhat boring, but she knew that fish were stupid. Blinking silver eyes, Cicero shielded her gaze from the sun as she noticed a large shape moving across the pools. Ahhh, "Hey, Percy!" the tiny lady crowed. Maybe he'd want to eat one of the stupid fish with her. "Speech" |
