This Time

[Ebony Adara]

Taromaru, barely able to see. He flopped the tiny wings on his back and let out a yawn, Fera watched over him with careful eyes as he tottered out of his bed and made way out of the cave.

She knew what he was doing.

She scooped him up with her wings and sprinted towards the dryad. This will be his first time ever experience with the Dryad, though he wouldn't remember coming from the Dryad.

Fera pushed him on ward, he tottered a little, he still had gross skills. When he gets older he will learn higher skills.

He fell when he got into the Dryad, and was frightened when it got dark.

When he woke up, his eyes scanned the area. "Ow," He whined and flapped the wings on his back. He backed in terror.

What the heck?

He sniffed his fur and shook his head. He felt more bulky and big.

"Mad-daee?" He called, Fera giggled and stepped out from the forest and approached her son.

"Wow, you look so much like your father." She cooed and snuggled him. He pushed against her and kept his face away from her. Fera giggled again.

"Not Fairy!" He groaned.

"Taromaru, you should go make friends." She pushed him forward and he grunted.

"Obay!" He wanted to protest, but walked forward.

Nakao let his mind wander around while Nova led their little expedition to no where. He watched the flitter flutter around. Her mind off into the world of pretty leaves. Nakao just thought Nova was a hopeless day dreamer, not really paying attention to anything that happened around her.

"Hey look! I spot green and pink!" She said, startling Nakao in the weirdest yet slightest way. "Let's go check it out." She said, running off into the clearing where she was viewable. "Hi! I'm Nova and I'm well, Nova."

"I'm Nakao." He said, pressing himself past some tight bushes then ending up next to Nova. "Hey."

[Ebony Adara]

Taromaru smiled lightly when two pykiin came out and greeted him.

"Hello, Nova and Nakao. I'm Taromaru." He beamed.

[Silentmoon]

"Taromaru? Can I call you Taro? Much shorter. But you don't have to like that name. Cause, it was just a suggestion. Sorry for talking so much. And fast. Habit." Nova gushed out, seeming hopeless to stop herself.

Nakao looked at the little kiin oddly. Boy can she talk fast. "Taromaru. So, I haven't seen you around before. New?" he asked calmly, not paying much attention to Nova.

[Ebony Adara]

"Taro is fin," He nodded and stepped back a little, the voice ringing in his ears as she spoke fast. It was going in one ear and quickly going out the other in a hurry.

"I just grew up, I hatched from my gemfruit," He thought. "My wommy and waddy are somewhere..." He looked around. "And Hima!"

[Silentmoon]

"Ok! Taro it is! Did you know taro is a kind of potato? It's all purple and sweet." Nova added, making her sentences become somewhat extranios.

Nakao nodded and sat down. "Me too! But, I hatched a while back and my mom should be back at my den. My dad... well, I don't see him very often anymore." The green male shrugged then tilted his head in puzzlement. "Hima? I've never heard of her... or him." Nakao said, very much unsure if the name belonged to a girl or guy.

[Ebony Adara]

"Potato, what's that?" He looked to the side, feeling a bit curious on what a potato was.

"Hima is nickname for mah sister." He nodded. "I supose most pykiin start out as gemfruits?" He shifted his postition(sp?).

[Silentmoon]

Nova looked shocked at Taro. "You mean, you don't know what a potato is?" She nealy gasped with wide eyes. "But if you don't know, they are veggies. Brown on the outside and either orange, white or purple in the inside. Very tastey if you bake it over a fire. Or atleast, that's what the humans always give me." She smiled happily.

"Oohh, I see. My sister is Lee or Leelee. She's a little know it all sometimes." He said laughing, thining about his younger sister. "Well, not all atleast I don't think so. My mom never knew where she came from. So like most of my other pounce members. Me and Lee are pretty much the only one with known parents."
