Chirping
Shimmer crept into the middle ranker's den and over to Axel. "Wake up, sleepy head," she whispered in his ear. "Huh? Bella? I don't wanna play right now, I wanna sleep..." Axel mumbled, his eyes still closed. Shimmer chuckled. "Open your eyes." Axel rolled over. "Bella....not right now....I'll be up in an hour..." "Silly, I'm not Bella. Just open your eyes." Shimmer smiled. Axel groaned and opened one eye. Immediately he jumped up. "Shimmer?" he said in disbelief. She embraced him with one wing. "How did you escape?" "A human let me go." Axel just stared at her like she'd gone crazy. "That's impossible! Humans don't do things like that!" "Well....apparently they do sometimes," Shimmer responded. "Now, what do say we go get some breakfast?" She grinned. Axel's face lit up. "Yeah! Breakfast!" He shot out of the huge cave and toward the food pile, with Shimmer close behind. Silly fledglings, she thought, giggling to herself. I wonder where Spyder is..... thoughts of Spyder and their chat earlier that morning returned to her mind. 'I like you Shimmer.....I need you to know that' echoed through her head as she made her way to the food pile, where Axel was busy eating a rabbit.
