Chapter 64: Is This The End?

A/N: As always, bolded words are spoken in Trigedasleng. 

She woke up and looked at the sky. It was the brightest, bluest sky she had ever seen. There were little clouds that resembled little animals prancing in the air. As her eyes adjusted to the light, she looked at her surroundings. She was in an open field, wildflowers danced with the light breeze that flowed through the field. The grass was more green than she had ever seen and the smell of fresh, spring air filled her lungs. When she stood up, she looked down and felt as the swaying grass tickled her paws.

As Sky began to walk around, she was entranced by the wonders of nature; the air, the sky, the sounds of nature. She saw the little woodland creatures running past her. One of the racoons looked at her and nodded. He took a nut and threw it at her. She shook her furry ass and bit the nut, savouring its taste. It was green and it tasted almost sweet and nutty. It was the only way she could describe it.

"Thanks, little dude," she said and the little raccoon nodded again before scampering off into a hollowed out tree trunk.

Sky took her time, looking at everything around her, hearing the call of the birds as they flew in the sky.

Sky looking at the sky, she mused and chuckled to herself. She continued walking, having no idea where she was heading. She knew she needed to go home but when she saw the long branches of the tallest, greenest trees she had ever seen, she began walking towards it, her head lifted as high as she could stretch it, taking everything in. The tree was stunningly beautiful; actually everything was beautiful. When she brought down her head to look at eye level, she realized she had entered a forest. The grass was a luscious green colour, it tickled in between her paws. The trees were so beautiful. Tall, mighty, strong green leaves and brown bark. At times, in between the tall trees were wildflowers of different colours; red, violet, blue, pink, yellow and white.

The tall trees formed a canopy that shielded her from the sun but the rays of light that made it to the ground lit the grass to form a crisp golden light. She walked for what felt like hours until she came upon a river with the clearest water she had ever seen. It wasn't deep but it wasn't shallow either and she could see the fish swimming around. They had different colours on their scales as well; red, yellow, white and gray markings and the size! They were big, almost enough to feed three or more persons, she thought to herself. Even the water smelled sweet and when she began to lap some of it in her mouth she groaned at the fresh, crisp taste of the cool water as it quenched her thirst.

Suddenly, she heard a noise and when she lifted her head, she saw a moose on the other side of the riverbank, looking at her curiously and having decided she wasn't a threat, began to drink water as well.

"It's delicious, isn't it, Mr. Moose?" She asked and the moose nodded, as if it could understand her. She tilted her head from side to side and started chuckling. "Oh, I must be going bloody crazy."

She continued walking until she saw two large trees about eighty feet tall with graceful, arching branches that when the breeze flowed through, it seemed to set the entire tree in motion, swaying from side to side. It was a beautiful sight and Sky had a toothy grin on her face. The two trees formed an arch, something like a cave of branches and it offered shade from the sun. On the ground, just below it, was a patch of green grass and wildflowers, in their pretty colour of reds, violets and yellows and so, Sky decided to rest under it. She made her way towards it and walked around in circles, until she settled her tired body and placed her head on her front paws.

This is nice, she thought to herself and closed her eyes.
