We Can Be (Almost Anything)

It didn't bother the cream colored female in the slightest that Pripyat had decided to change directions. It was natural to follow where he led, and just as the wind sometimes changes directions, he would follow her too, when she had reason to lead. They had a natural energy that shifted between them, but always seemed to remain in balance. She twined her own fingers with his, setting her palm against the ashen boy's own palm, just as easily. She followed him, golden eyes keen and sharp, looking for whatever might have pulled his attention this way.

It did not take long for that to reveal itself. Looming against the horizon, seemingly larger than life, a cylindrical building seemed to dominant her entire field of vision. When Pripyat stopped just short of the towering structure, it confirmed that this was what he wanted to show her. "This is amazing," Arye breathed. The cream colored girl had seen a variety of human structures, from the broken down old ranch house to the buildings of the city, but to see this stand-alone tower against the picturesque backdrop of the sand and sea was truly inspiring.

"Have you ever been here before?" Arye asked, turning to regard the ashen, blue-eyed boy. Mindful of their linked hands, her ready smile reappeared and she pulled him toward it. "Do you want to go inside?" The gray boy had always accompanied her on new adventures before; now he posed a new, tempting adventure that would unravel before them, and she was intent on taking him up on this offer.
