Creatures of Pangea

Chapter 6: The Pièrre

They started walking into an entrance into the forest. "Come on! Follow us," they both said lightly at the same time.
"Should we?" Spirit whispered to the group as they followed behind.
"It's just something about them, we should," Arlo replied.
"I have a terrible feeling about this..." Nikita mumbled to himself.
"Wait so who, or.... what are you guys exactly?" Anna asked the witches.
"Oh well that's easy dear, we're part of the Pierre," Sunny answered.
"The Pierre? What's that?" Anna asked.
"Oh! I've heard of the Pierre before!" Akita announced, "Aren't they some sort of witchy tribe that lives in the forest?"
"Witchy tribe?" Sunny asked, laughing. "We are a strong witch tribe that keeps to ourselves in the forest,"

"Ooouuu I heard you guys had cast a spell around your village to camouflage it to the forest!" Akita stated.
"Now, that is true and speaking of that," Sunny commented as they walked up to two large trees crossed together. They are covered with moss and flowers wrapped around the stumps. Aspen closed her lower eyes and opened her top ones. She started pronouncing words that weren't of this world and her top eyes glowed pure gold. A small portal to a village starts opening up. "Come on! Let's go, everyone!" Sunny happily said, hopping over a small fallen log through the portal. Everyone followed and jumped over the log through the portal. Aspen stayed behind. It looked like she said something, and then the portal started collapsing inward. "Don't worry about her, she'll catch up!" Everyone was looking around. There were small cottages everywhere. There's even some in the trees and boardwalks all over and in the trees.

"Why does it look like everyone is celebrating?" Anna asked.
"Oh, we're celebrating the growth of the new autumn leaves," Sunny replied.
"Why do you guys do that?" asked Spirit.
"Oh, well our tribe values and appreciates the growth of the forest!"
"Oou, why so?" Akita was wondering.
"Well, we have a special connection with the forest that runs through us. It strengthens our magic. Well... the willow tree that we call "Usrani" or in other words, "The Mother Tree." It's basically what holds all life to the forest, and is what strengthens our magic. It's in the center of our village but also where we have our village feasts and festivals! Although I like to call it "The Wise Fredrickson," she said giggling.
"Wow..." Akita exclaimed while giggling.
"Come on guys! I want to show you around the celebration and show you the tree!" Sunny yelled out, starting to pick up her paste, and jumping forward.

While walking on the board everyone was dancing around and flying on these beautiful floating trails.
"Hey, who are you guys?" someone floated down asking.
"Oh! Hey Blossom!" Sunny exclaimed.
"Eeeeeek! Hey Sunny! Who are these people with you?"
"Umm, I'm not exactly supposed to say, although me and my sister brought them here,"
"ooh, alright then, can I join you guys on the tour?"
"Ya! Of course! Everyone, this is my best friend Blossom!"
"Hi Blossom". Everyone said.
They continue walking on the boardwalk. They came up to a clear, colourful path that floated up to the upper boardwalks. "Here is our sleeping courters! Oh! And this is where we collect a lot of our fruit! Ouu! And this is my favourite place to snack on or just watch the sunrise or sunset!" Sunny kept showing everyone around, while people kept throwing on flower crowns and necklaces on all of them.

"You guys have such a beautiful village," Anna commented.
"Thank you so much!" Sunny replied, smiling.
"You're welcome!" Anna smiled back. They continue walking. A few moments later they started walking up upon this enormous willow tree.
"Wow..." Arlo sighed.
"Don't tell me.." Nikita said, astonished.
"IS THAT THE WILLOW TREE???" Akita yelled out in complete shock, jumping onto Nikitas's back to see better.
"Yep! That's the willow tree!" Sunny replied.
They walked up to this enormous tree that was 5,000 times larger than them.
"That's like 2000x bigger than like 5 million elephants!"
Akita exaggerated in shock. They kept walking towards the tree. It just kept looking bigger and bigger. It had huge hanging branches and leaves. Smaller wood vines wrapped around all over. It had all sorts of varieties of small flowers and berries. They kept walking towards the tree and eventually, they walked into this huge dining hall area within it.
