I sat down so I could think about it. "Highest peak is where you seek," I repeated. I thought hard and hard, until it began to frustrate me. I buried my face in my hands. Until I felt the fox crawl onto my lap. I began to calm down and pet the fox's soft fur. I looked up through the trees and up at the red orange glow of the sun set. I looked in the direction of the sun set and could see it slowly going behind the mountain top. My eyes widened, "I get it now," I muttered. "I get it!" I jumped up and the fox jumped off, "Highest peak is where you seek, highest mountain peak." "But the highest mountain would be..." I let my brain refresh for a moment. "The one here!" Filled with excitement, I began to run towards the mountain trail. The fox ran beside me. Together after a lot of running, we made it to the trail. I looked around to see if there would be any faster way to get up there without having to walk all the way. There was a little dinner near by, and parked there was a moped. I sighed and took it as it was my only choice. As I drove away with the fox in my lap, the I.O.U I had left drifted into the air and onto the floor in the dust and dirt.
