Fae continued to say her name, reading it was one thing but
speaking it out loud was another one altogether, using this oddly shaped mouth
with the skin around it that moved in all matter of directions was going to
take quite some time to get used to. She was about to head off deeper into the
forest when she stepped on one of the yellow balls that had fallen from the
tree, it squished between her toes and had a tangy smell." FOOD!" she
thought with excitement as she bent and picked one up which blew apart in her
hand as soon as she grasped it, it sprayed yellow juice everywhere. Her eyes
stung, the juice had got into her eyes and she danced around awkwardly cursing
to herself until the pain subsided and she could see again. Fae carefully
picked up the remaining yellow balls and took a big bite out of one of
them...it was good but then her eyes squeezed shut at the aftertaste and her
mouth puckered, she continued on despite the taste, forcing herself to finish
the insanely sour fruit one by one.
With a full belly Fae walked further into the forest and
found herself awestruck by the beauty of it, all sorts of different shades of
green sprouted everywhere with sunlight from the sky shining through the leaves
in strong beams of light. The wind rustled through the forest and it seemed to
have a life all of its own. She almost felt bad for all the forests she had
burnt down in her life, if she had known what they looked like inside she might
have tried to save them instead. She kept walking, paying attention to where
she was going so as not to run into anything and as she walked she thought to
herself" Where am I going exactly?" She pondered" Its not like I
can speak human yet, what happens if I run into one of them? All I really know
is that a human is behind this cruel joke and I am not amused. I don't even
know where I'm going and even if I did I have no way of knowing how to get
there. This walking is much different from flying, there are no landmarks that
I am used to seeing, and everything looks the same. I guess that if I keep
moving the answers will eventually reveal themselves to me.
She kept walking and
as she did she urinated without breaking stride, it came out in a steady stream
and splashed against her legs and hissed when it hit the ground, the grass
decaying where ever the liquid landed. She stopped and looked back, "Well
that was annoying" she thought. she had never urinated on herself before
and now she was a little disgusted with herself. Fae smiled, and then guffawed
soon afterward. It was the only thing she could do, she knew she was trapped in
this body and it was going to be awhile to get used to it. She carried on
while shaking her head at the ridiculousness of her situation.
The speed at which
she was walking soon slowed and Fae found herself confused at the burning
sensation in her stomach. She checked herself over and found no bruising or
cuts but there was an intense pain she was not used to and had never felt
before. A low rumbling sound came from somewhere and she froze in her tracks.
Something brushed by her foot and she jumped with a little yelp. There was
something under the soft ground! She could see it moving, and again she heard
the low rumble it sounded like it came from right below her just after her
stomach spasm clenched again, the pain was getting worse now.
