I saw a flash of light.
Eight lithe, long bodies soared across a dark space—Eddard and Elaundra, the weasel Forefounders. Percy and Priscilla, the otter Forefounders. Lester and Lula, the ferret Forefounders. They were soaring after Markus and Milette, the mink Forefounders. All of them were transparent. All had wings behind their backs.
Lester and Lula stopped to look in my direction—Lester was a sable ferret wtih a mild smirk on his face, while Lula was a white ferret with a childlike, yet calm and serene, smile on her face. They soared over to me and began to circle their swirling bodies around me, releasing sparkling yellow dust as their wings flapped.
Then the images began to fade.
I opened my eyes to the sound of Wendy's voice.
"Hey! He's waking up!"
I groaned, realizing I was lying on a hospital bed. Wendy, Wayne, Jaden, and Mildred were at my side.
"Oh, thank goodness!" Mildred clasped her hands.
"Ugh...." I sat up. "How long was I out?"
"Yo man..." Wayne was giving me a grimace. "It only took a few seconds for the doc to heal your wounds, but you still ended up sleepin' the entire afternoon!"
I shook my head. "I...I was caught up in a really weird dream." I felt a wave of relief as I looked outside to see Industrialized Weasels cleaning up the mess from the wolverine attack earlier.
Wendy gave me a hearty shove on the shoulder. "Well, it's a good thing you woke up in time—our camping trip is tonight!"
After I was discharged from the hospital, it was already twilight. We camped out at Mildred's favorite spot in the forest, where most of the Primitive Weasels lived in their tribes.
Mildred loved to go on nature walks on a regular basis. She made friends with many of the Primitive Weasels throughout her young life, so she spent most of our trip hanging out with them.
While Mildred was busy hanging out in the Primitive Weasels' dingy teepees and petting Feral Weasels, Wendy, Wayne, Jaden and I summoned a bunch of beer bottles and partied around.
I must've drank too much, because soon, I found myself passing out again.
