There is the joy that cuts into the air with squeals and chirps. The pinched, heightened cacophony that bounces from the arena’s harsh edges, and the bare skin of the perches hovering above. Presumably lifeless, have now taken the forms of sharp talons. Hands that waver with the wind, every intention to rip and pull the yearling apart!

She jumps to avoid the fingers that nearly graze her wing tips, kicking out in a hurried protest. Moving, always moving before they honed in on the vibrations of your pause – from the heavy pounding of your heart, to the elastic reverberations of the lungs. Move Ru, move! Another racous laugh escapes her darkened lips with a loud bark. Believing that mother was also chasing her. Nearly holding on to the delight of what that life had been; Ru continued to drift farther away from reality. Embracing its warmth like an old, worn blanket. Savoring its scents, the fluttering of memories that pass by with the sound of ‘mother’s voice’. The rush of excitement fills the adrenaline with the drive and desire to pulse, and amplify the girl’s solitary fun. She is alone but not lonely – for the time being – she could savor the silence, and the hunger for company that only loneliness could absolve.

There is a shadow that she cannot ignore; rather, it sends a shiver down her spine. Caught in-between the fallacies of her mind, and the ground reality inhabiting the world around her. Bright coral eyes sway, scanning her playing field. It was then, as she cringed at the idea of having been caught that the yearling raised her gaze sky-wards. Slowing her pace, she catches the other making their descent upon the earth. The flutter of feathers, and the gaze of one who might be appraising an ancient relic; either way, it was uncomfortable at the foreign voice greeted her. Especially as the pretend world faded away, and all her insecurities seemed to be crawling back with a vengeance. Ru simply nods back, though; finds the other girl’s pursuit somewhat alarming.

Without realizing that she had, her ears flattened for a moment, as she turned to face other. Ru seems to ignore their similarities for the time being, shuffling backwards with a sharp, warning trill. She was beginning to feel belittled by the gaze that ran wherever it wished. Wondering if the girl found her hairless neck amusing, or odd, or… ugly and grotesque. The youth would have rather had the fluff of her previous mane, then the absence of; the throb of the white feathers poking out from her skin seemed to burn, underneath the guidance of two dissimilar orbs. Like a dog caught underneath the scrutiny of his master, the hairless tail pressed close to her.

At least she could sense that the stranger may have been somewhat older than her, or nearly the same age. Gangly limbs just about filled out with that robust nature of her stride. A purpose, and an unknown desire appeared to guide the stranger closer to her.

Before allowing the stranger to get any further, Ru had had enough. She squirmed within and raised her wings up, leaning back on her hind limbs so very briefly, as her forelimbs kicked out in a flightly warning. Harmless, with no intent of injury.  

What did she want? The girl snorted, tossing her head as she fell to the ground. Raising a quizzical brow at the other.

[just as a note: her mane and tail are molting XD so no forelock/mane/tail, just hairless and little feathers poking out. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. Must work on that >< .]
