George swiped all the jerky and bread bricks and carefully left the pantry. She made sure to check that the coast was clear before dashing for the back door once more. She opened it and slipped out quietly. George breathed out a huge sigh of relief. The first stage of the plan was complete, but there wasn’t much time to waste. After quickly catching her breath George stuffed her looted food into her makeshift sack and made her way back to the tree line as fast as she could.
The tree line wasn’t far from the house and George made it there relatively quick. The mist creature she had left in the shadows swirled happily around her. It almost looked like a glowing orb, but it left a trail of mist and seemed to be made of nothing but mist. Its presence enchanted George like a spell. Her mind fixated itself on figuring out what the mist creature was.
Twitter, however, snapped her out of it, “It’s a forest spirit, no need to let it have your full attention.”
“What exactly do they do?” George questioned.
“They carry messages, it has delivered a message of sorts to you and is waiting for you to tell it what to send back,” Twitter replied.
“How do I send a message back then?” George asked, turning towards the forest spirit.
“You pick a memory and focus on it, you can pick more than one, and cup it in your hand,” Twitter instructed.
George knew which memories to send back. The more recent one of being cursed and his message on the wind when she was younger. She called the forest spirit to her and cupped it in her hand. It blurbed and it cooed excitedly before racing off to the previous sender.
“I thought you said you wanted to be back by dusk,” Angel commented, “and it will soon be gone.”
“The others will be getting worried if we don’t hurry back I suppose,” George said with a hint of disappointment.
She was about to head back to the lake when she heard her mom and dad calling. Their shouts for her to come back only hardened George’s resolve, she was too afraid to run back to them. She slung the makeshift sack back over her shoulder, for she seemed to have set it down at some point without realizing it, and picked her way along the trail.
Hope you enjoyed the story, and have a good rest of your day! :D
