Brightly colored wings fluttered excitedly as Mystic bounced up and down, hoovering slightly at the height of her jump. Her bells jingled merrily as she bounced, filling the morning air with an almost palpable joy. The adult unicorn fox was in a particularly good mood this morning. It was the morning of the start of her adventure. Her first real adventure. With friends!
She had talked to Sarah a while back and they had decided to split up so that Sarah could find her brother. Then they would meet up on today's date in the forest to go on an adventure. Mystic had reached the forest early and danced around the meeting spot to release her excitement as she waited for her friend Sarah to arrive with her brother.
She was still dancing and bouncing around when a noise caught her attention. It wasn't very close, but it wasn't very far away either. Mystic ceased her joyous bouncing and stood very still, her ears up, straining to hear where the sound was coming from. After a moment she decided it was coming from a little ways up the path. And it sounded like... footsteps.
With a jolt of realization, Mystic sprang into action, dashing and fluttering in a big circle around the clearing. The energy of her excitement almost overpowered her. THEY'RE HERE! She screamed in her head with delight. After relieving herself of most of her energy, Mystic made her way to the center of the clearing and waited almost anxiously for Sarah and her brother to appear.
