One In a Melon

She continued to tap on the big round green thing. Wondering if, at some point, it would crack open or something. But the outside felt thick, and she was curious to know what the hell was inside! Since she didn't have sharp claws or even sharp claw covers like her mom, she opened her mouth and was about to try and take a bite to see if she could puncture it when someone spoke up. "You ever tried watermelon before, kid?" Her head shot up, peering past the big thing, and spotted a dark...someone. "What's a watermelon!?" She exclaimed with confusion. She looked at the green-striped...things that were around her. "You mean they're not giant eggs!? Can Rue eat them?" Eat them, cut 'em open, roll 'em around...she swore she could do just about anything with them. Though she was skeptical about the eating part. She dropped to the ground suddenly and snipped one off of the vine thing that it was attached to, and almost as soon as she did it began to roll away. "No wait, come back! Rue wants to know what you are!" She shouted as she bounded after the runaway watermelon.

It headed toward the water, and Rue yelled at it as she raced to stop it from going in. She made it, but not without tumbling with it first. She practically rolled with the watermelon as she had tried to catch it with her paws. Her world went spinning for a few heartbeats before she came to a stop near the water's edge. She was on her back, and without skipping a beat, she popped her head up to try and peek over the watermelon at the stranger, the watermelon grasped firmly in her arms and held to her chest. "Rue caught it!" She exclaimed before carefully pushing it off of her so she could sit upright. Now because the watermelon had tried to run away, this one was going to be her victim! She couldn't wait to carve it open to see what was inside! "What now?" She questioned the shadow wolf, crimson gaze expectant. She was eager to see what was inside! Maybe spill its guts if it had any, though the more she considered it, she wondered if she could make something neat from it to show her mother. Oh! Or how about a watermalone helmet!? That would be cool, too!
