Head Over Heels, Picture Perfect.

[Masie]

They were going somewhere today and Masie was so excited! Most days, Owen and Delta were intent on keeping her near the nest or scolding her for wandering too far. Little feet pattered across the ground as she ran swiftly to catch up to Delta, stopping to let the other get ahead a little bit, continually playing this game as they traveled. Masie was so excited to be going somewhere with Delta as most of her trips were with Owen or both of them. Getting to go somewhere alone with her big sister for at least a little while? Made the little creature so happy she was chittering the whole way as they went along, bouncy in her movements. "Food?" were they going to get something to eat, Masie would beyond love that, her stomach was grumbling again even though she had eaten roughly an hour ago. Considering she spent all of her time running, the infant raptor rarely stayed full for any decent length of time, unlike her sisters she could not just lay down, she had to keep moving. This instinct was to strength her long legs which were currently far weaker than the others.


"Delta! Delta!" she chittered her sisters name happily, running circles around the larger raptor as they walked along, occasionally ending up chasing her own tail like young animals sometimes did. Masie loved the larger female very much, and couldn't contain her exactment at this solo trip with Delta, it was the best thing ever. Sun filtered all around them, the tiny raptor pouncing on any sun spots she could catch moving in the forest, entertaining herself as they went along.


Little Masie had no idea what was coming, no idea that they were heading towards something dangerous. The sound of running water could be heard as they went towards a strange wooden pathway, nothing on either side of the wood expect for some ropes. At first? The infant was hesitant to follow her sister onto the bridge, but she trusted and loved Delta so it took only seconds for her to run in order to try to get next to Delta on the path. No clue what was coming.
