Carlos wandered through the forest. He knew he’d seen a cave somewhere – it looked like an old bear cave, though he hadn’t gone in it before. He wanted to be as far away from his camp and the summer camps, in case the children had an idea to wander around at night to hunt for snipes. The full moon would make visibility perfect for it, so it was a reasonable concern in Carlos’ mind.
He finally came across the cave he was looking for. And not too soon either – the moon would rise probably within the next ten minutes. Carlos ventured forth, holding his flashlight up to search the inside of the cave. Hopefully it was empty. Could a werewolf beat a bear? Maybe?
the
beast huffed slightly as he shifted out of his sleep, tiredly looking
around the cave before stretching and yawning. dispite being told the
night before, he was still suprised to see a human sleeping in the
cornerCarlos took a little bit to finally wake up. When he did, he was sore all over. The floor hadn’t been very kind to his back, and the cold hadn’t been of much help either. Carlos was almost shivering as he sat up and tried to rub the sleep from his eyes.
he sat up when he noticed the other did, getting up before curiously sniffing and nunging him
Carlos jumped in shock, staring at the creature with wide eyes. But as memories of the night before came back he tried to relax. “Oh. It’s… it’s you.”
he chirped softly, tilting his head as he sat beside him
Carlos made a small, awkward smile. “I, uh… hope you slept better than I did.”
he looked at his sleeping spot before chriping again and looking down at him
Carlos blinked, uncertain. “Uh… I don’t… is that a yes?”
he huffed slightly as he realised they couldn’t understand each anymore, wings twitching slightly
Carlos felt bad. Drake was clearly disappointed by… something. Probably the language barrier.
“Um, well… okay. I, uh… need to get dressed so…” Carlos wasn’t sure how to ask for what he needed. He held one finger up and twirled it in a circle, hoping Drake got the idea to turn around for him.
