My ear twitched and my eyes blinked open. At first I didn't know where I was, then I remembered as the yellow and pink grass swished around me; making a sound I quite liked. A giggle left my throat as a small bird landed on my head just for a moment; as if startled by the fact I was a living thing.

I stretched.

My legs still aching some for the ordeal hours before... or was it hours? I couldn't tell. It was still the same light of day as it was before; for all I knew I could have been asleep for only a few moments.

My ears searched about me; sounds of few around flowed into them. A bit of dread rushed in my veins, but that was soon over taken by the low growl in my stomach.
I walked forward a few steps and stopped as the long grass ended leading out into the short grassed, tree shaded part of the forest. I searched with my eyes before stepping out into the open; the smell of the soft grass as it was being lightly crushed under me, the sent of the fresh water spilling from that strange stone and the red flowers that flourished around them; all entered my nose as I walked further little by little.

My stomach growled yet again, as if to tell me to move faster. I shook my head not knowing what I was looking for; then I saw something on a tree; I remembered from the other day, the deer I saw playing were eating something off the trees in this area. I quickened my pace; strange little things grew off the dark barked tree, but if others ate them then they must be safe... right? I swallowed hard before taking a small nibble; it tasted, tasted very nice, better then I thought it might. I nibbled more at it; a strange feeling came over me as I continued. I stopped as it grew more; it wasn't a bad feeling, just a tingle, a fuzzy feeling that I rather enjoyed. I ate a bit more only to find that the sensation I was having before wasn't the same; it felt like it was almost bitter, luster lost.

A feeling came over me as if compelled by some unseen force to expel this feeling; like little whispers told me it was what had to be done, that was the reason for the feeling in the first place. I found myself drawn to a near by sleeper; I hesitated at first before slowly moving closer. There was a change; a strong pulsation at my head and soon I forced it out in the direction of the sleeper. A bright light came from me and enveloped them; shock, fear, amazement; so many things flew through my head as I watched a beautiful covering adorned their face.

I left; feeling bad about what I did. I knew if it were me I really wouldn't like someone doing that to me. I gave a deep sigh as I waked on, not watching where I was going nor watching out for others around me; that was until the sounds of running beats made me jump. I looked around to see a large deer running up ahead of my near the very large tree. I coward back hoping that it did not see me; I loosened when I saw another appear and both ran off away from where I was.

I thought today was going rather well, that was until I was run down. To them it seemed like a form of 'play', laughing at me like they did, but it was a play I did not like on bit. I ran off as fast as I could, hoping they would not follow and thankfully they didn't.
I found myself at a large stone place; vines covering the pillars and crumbling walls. A tree caught my eye; behind it being a small spot I thought would be a good place to hide and rest for the time being.

La is a new little fawn. Having woke up in a strange world there are many things that both awe and frighten her.

She has a fondness for the purple flowers already and has found the feeling of safety in the yellow and pink grasses in the birch forest.

She shy's away from deer now, being that from the word 'go' she has had only scary encounters with them. Slowly however she is venturing out and slowly trying to reach out into the world around her.

But for now the brown and silver fawn isn't truly ready to be among many of her kind.

My eyes blinked; the light streaming in blinding me for moments. I gazed out with blurred vision that soon cleared, to look on a world I did not know.

I was in awe and wonder at the new sights, smells and sounds. I gazed out; beyond the trees, seeing what I could. I had wish to see more, but my legs, they didn't seem to want to move. I struggled with them; to move them under me. So wobbly they were; I stumbled a few times before they started to hold. Now I was free to set forth into this new place.

I heard the sounds of encroaching beats as one like me nearly ran me down. Not even a look; not one glace to say that they even saw me, nearly mowed me over. Shaken now; the wonder losing grace over my heart.

I walked more tentatively now; watching around me; my ears flicking about with speed. As I looked I saw something stand out of the greens and browns around; Black and white fur bundled up, sleeping. I slowing crept up to it not knowing what would happen. Closer still I came, but not a move did it make. Sniffing at the air around it I felt it was best to just leave it be; don't want to make a mistake.

Turning away I was startled to see a little one like me, sleeping in a bundle near a stream; I was so tunneled on the black and white one that I had lost sense around me it seemed. Sounds drew my attention from the sleeping one to a field across the stream; others running, jumping, prancing about. Part of me wished to get closer; see them up close; join in play, but as I neared fear took hold as one rushed past me from behind. The only think I could think was run, run as fast as you can; and so I did.

I ran past them, dodging as a few crossed over my path. It almost seemed like they wanted to run me over. Fear was the only thing I knew then; pure fear that gripped my heart; a heart that felt like it was trying to beat right out of my chest. My new legs ached, not having enough time to adapt to such movement and yet I still ran.

Instinct told me to find cover; I looked for a place to hide, but everywhere I ran there seemed to be others there. My legs were weakening with every fall and rise; I needed to find haven soon.

Colors of yellow and pink came to view; thick, tall grasses; seemed like a place that I could blend into easily. By that time I didn't really care; it looked safe; there was no one there but the birds that fluttered about overhead.

I collapsed.
Safe, for now... I hoped.
