Dragonfly Fen The place of the Pines

The boy hurried behind the older agouti, his brows narrowed in determination. They were almost there—he could feel it. A smile tugged at his lips as they crossed the gully between the slop and the line of viridian trees. The blue pines. The ones he had promised. His smile widened at the realization. Tikhon had kept his promise. He nearly squealed with excitement, but he remained composed, only his wide smile giving away how he was feeling on the inside.

We’re here.

Coming up at the agouti’s side the little Leigh stepped past the older male, his head falling to the side as he drank in the sight before him. The trees before him were not quite green, but they weren’t quite blue either. Closer to denim, maybe, but the colour… he couldn’t find a name for it. But he did not mind. It didn’t make it any less spectacular. The boy turned to his companion, the smile still pressed to his dark lips as his tail wagged gently behind him. “Thank you for bringing me here,” he said, finally, in a small voice. This was a place that he would keep tucked in the corners of his mind—where he kept his favourites.

With only a short distance to cross before they finally reached the trees that Tikhon had been so eager to show to the boy it felt like they had traveled so far. He made sure Sachiel kept up with him as they made their way to the trees but the dark agouti wanted to see the look on the young Leigh's face as he took them in. Then finally the reached the trees and for a moment Tikhon looked up at them before turning to Sachiel and announcing they had they had made it.

He watched the boy quietly giving Sachiel time to take in the trees and their color. The agouti man was curious what was going through the Leigh's head at that moment but he waited. Tikhon smiled when he saw the smile on Sachiel's face, “I am happy to do it,” he stated, “So what do you think?” He asked letting his curiosity about the boys thoughts get the better of him.

The Artemieva was glad to be able to bring a smile to Sachiel's face and most of all he was glad he was able to keep his promise.

So what do you think? He didn’t really know what to think. The colours were soft; muted. They didn’t make his head ache or his thoughts jumble together. For the first time in a long time the boy felt like he could actually breathe. There was no suffocating orange—no extravagantly striped trees. He stepped forward, his nose reaching out toward one of the lower branches, his nostrils flaring to familiarize himself with the new scent. “It’s… it’s,” he stumbled, the left corner of his mouth pinching in a small frown, “good.” Sachiel couldn’t think of anything else to say. Turning toward the older agouti the boy flashed him a wide smile, his tail wagging gently behind him. “Hunt now?” His stomach rumbled as the words rolled off his tongue, his smile only widening.

Faded and archived.

He waited for Sachiel to answer the question of what he thought of the trees. As he did so he looked up at them once more, they were certainly different than anything he had seen after he'd left them before. When the boy's voice reached his ears he turned his head to look at his as he spoke. Tikhon had learned quickly that Sachiel wasn't a pup of many words so he accepted his 'good’, wagging tail as a sign that he was rather happy about the trees. A smile crossed the agouti’s maw when Sachiel asked to hunt. “Yes we can hunt now,” he said turning from the trees, “I'm sure we can find something around here,” he added before leading the boy off for a hunt.
