Your own Friend ~ A somewhat wholesome story

01

You walked through the forest to get your mind off of the pain of home, a crunch of some leaves beneath your feet being the only sound around you as the trees pass you by. The lingering thought of running away eating away at your mind as you approach something.....

...

....

.....

Walking up to a sleeping animal, a big dormant animal that was white and brown, it's massive wings folded at its sides. It looked like an owl, but it had the body of a cat...you couldn't help but stare at the creature, scared to move. What if it woke up? Thoughts raced through your head, you took a step back, crunching another of the few leaves with a crisp crunch. You wince, scared that woke the scary big creature.

A sigh of relief leaves you as the creature was still dormant and turn to leave, walking away from where the creature was resting.

You suddenly hear a leaf crunch behind you and freeze in realization that, it wasn't you...

The anxiety hugged you tightly, a shadow loomed over you. You look up and make eye contact with the massive creature that was once sleeping and fell to the ground. The creature tilted it's head at you, it didn't seem aggressive...it seemed more curious than anything.
