Into the woods we go

Kite watched the way her sister's eyes moved to follow the path of an owl. It was harder to track the eye patterns of the two crystal girls, but to Kite this was all she had known. She knew what to look for beneath the strange layer of colour. She wondered what it would be like to be able to take to the skies. Her poor, light sensitive eyes would do well looking down at the earth, with the moon behind her. In fact, that sounded perfect. She would be able to see everything. She let out a wistful sigh, then laughed as she realised Vanta was on a similar train of thought. Her sister however had already thought of a way to give them some height. “I wanna climb!” she agreed, extending her retractable claws and bounding towards the tree.

“After you” she said politely, holding out a paw to let Vanta go first. After all, this had been her sister's idea. She deserved the honour of getting to experience it first. She giggled as she stood there. “Maybe we’d get to catch an owl?” she whispered to her favourite sibling.
