right where you are

Faria stated that her siblings were around but from the way her voice trailed off it was clear that it had been awhile since she'd seen them. Aksel tried to offer her a reassuring smile. The would probably turn up sooner or later. Aksel shook out his coat, eyes turning skyward. The sun was rising and the moisture was rapidly evaporating increasing the humidity as well as the heat in the air. It was going to become unbearable pretty soon but at least they could enjoy the environment for another hour or so.

Aksel grinned. Perhaps he'd found some potential traveling companions? To be honest he'd never really considered it but why not? Although… he would feel a bit out of place next to these brightly colored beauties. Next to them he was such a drabby little creature.

"Oh sure, I've got loads of stories! I bet you have some to. I'll tell you one if you tell me one." He grinned, tail waving like a banner as he trotted along next to Faria.

"I'm not really the best story teller but I'll give it a shot. One time I was wandering the Algoma Prairie when I ran into a little bobcat. He was pretty scared of me, holed up in this little den but I went and caught him a prairie dog and we got to talking and had a great time. Well the whole time we were talking I started getting a weird feeling in my gut. There was a stirring in the air…. well it was evening and the sun was starting to set, as I turned there was a wall of clouds to the west of us. A gleaming, leering tower of sickly yellow clouds stretching from the horizon to the top of the sky where the disappeared into this black anvil."

Aksel paused for a moment to catch his breath before continuing. It was starting to get really hot. "Well… I don't want to drag this out to long but long story short it was the craziest storm I'd ever been in in my life. I thought I was going to die. Hail the size of prairie dogs was falling out of the sky, the wind nearly blew me over. So this bobcat and I ducked back in this den and it was the craziest thing being shacked up with this kid while all hell broke out around us." He smile faded for a brief moment before it came back even brighter. "Man what a rush…. how about you, any stories?"
