The lean tawny female took her walk and gave it speed. Her small paws flew over the new soft ground of springs awakening. Feeling the morning’s wet grass beneath her toes Anu consumed herself with the plant life that was waking with dawns first light. Such early moments in the season brought only the smallest flowers that were the quickest to life after the frost of winter. They were yellow, small glowing suns dotted against a bright green background. She named then silently, and then moved to the purple stalks that contrasted against their golden sisters so perfectly. Her blue eyes took in the scattered flowers as they became nothing by blurs in her vision while she ran.
The sun broke the cloud cover night had left. At first only a hint of blue could be seen in the tears, but as it grew stronger the warmth and light broke them into white round cotton balls. Anu felt the warmth on her back, the sensation filtering into her pelt and skin. So distracted, Anu hardly noticed when she passed through the invisible boarder that surrounded the foreign territory. |
