First Sunrise (open)

[rivit]

It was early in the morning, very early as a matter of fact. The sun was only just starting to rise, the great ball of light only starting to peek up on the horizon. Of course the creature inside the nearly ready to hatch fruit-egg was not able to see the beginnings of this sunrise. After all, the creature was yet to hatch. But it was not be that way for long. No, the egg itself was not completely ready to give way. No, the creature inside was not as large or strong as he could have been. But man, he was restless! The creature inside the egg had become aware a little earlier than expected and thus wanted out earlier than expected. Like a early birth in creatures that would give live birth this one would be a early hatching.

The egg on the annab tree let out a slight tapping sound. Of course of was not the egg itself making this sound but the creature inside the egg. For one brief moment the tapping stopped and the egg fell silent. Suddenly there was a loud crack and the side of the egg ripped open to reveal a white paw. Another paw soon joined this one, enlarging the hole as much as possible. Once the job was done a head poked out, taking in the surroundings.

What the newborn Jiro say was rrather alarming to him. He had hatched early, early as in before his egg hit the ground. A sinking feeling entered the feline's stomach as he stared down at the ground, the ground so far below him. Although he would deny it if even asked in the future in that moment he was scared, very scared. So with a small mewl of fear he pulled his head back in and attempted to curl back up in his egg.

[atrb=background,http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y272/silentwoods/samples/hazel_table2.png] ♥♥ We're Leaving Together ♥♥ Gwen scurried around the orchard for a time, searching fervently for a mouse he had seen among the roots. The clumsy occult canine tripped over its own paws and lay in a sprawled heap across the ground under a tree. A quite familiar tree. The annab tree. Gwen put its paws on the tree and stared up at the pods which hung by tendrils to the tree's branches. The still young canine wagged his tail as he saw that one of the pods seemed quite close to hatching. It pulled itself from the tree and collapsed in a heap ready to strangle the new creature with unbending friendship. Click! Tap! Crrrraaaccckkkk! Gwen lifted its head from the leaves when it had been making fun shoving his nose under a pile then shaking its muzzle and watching them fly around. Oh how immature for anyone to be doing this, not that the under-educated Gwen cared. A white paw emerged. Gwen scurried backwards a few steps, wagging its tail in excitement. Gwen laid down in the leaves and waited for the newborn to find a way down from it's pod. Wait. Before its pod hit the ground. Gwen's eyes widened and it bounced forward underneath the pod to see a pitiful mewling figure huddling itself inside of its own pod. "Hello, hello! I am Gwen, I am here to rescue you from your precarious perch!" The genderless canine woofed, his red eyes hardening into concern and his black and white furred back tensing in alarm. Unknowingly the immature Gwen transformed from his erratic state to a calmer and more mature state only because someone was in danger. Even though he had never seen this creature before in his lifetime, however short it has been. ♥♥ But Still It's Farewell ♥♥

Zumarra strolled through the Orchard at a leisurely pace, her tail waving gently behind her. A particularly compelling thought in the back of her mind had led her here to see if she could find her birth tree again. Maybe she might also have the chance to greet some newborn creatures as well. But so far, although she had spotted a few broken pods, the young feline had yet to come across anybody.

Eventually she spotted the tart cerasus tree from which she was born and would forever recognize. She sat at its roots to watch the sunrise, remembering fondly watching it set the night before leaving the Orchard. It was then that she heard a cracking sound somewhere nearby, followed by a small, frightened mewl. Her ears pricked up and Zumarra snapped to her feet, searching for the animal who had apparently just hatched. It took several moments for her to look up and spot the hole in one of the pods on a nearby annab tree, and more importantly, the terrified feline inside. She started running over, about to call out, before seeing a large canine come rushing in from a different direction. "Hello, hello! I am Gwen, I am here to rescue you from your precarious perch!" This canine would probably be a lot more capable, with its larger size. Instead Zumarra stopped not to far away, still standing and ready to move, just in case.
