Sia sat in the soft green grass and pushed her hair out of her face as she looked up at the sky. A few fluffy white clouds drifted in the blue sky, she smiled and went back to gathering some flowers that were around her.
Aeildial looked up at her friend, she was older than Sia but since she was a pygme, she was only a child. She took some of the flowers Sia had handed to her and started weaving them into a head band.

Tarik ran towards the meadow ahead. His dark blue hooves moved along the forest floor, making thudding sounds as the hooves hit the ground in a certain pattern.
The reason for his rush was that he was planning on meeting his sister and some old friends at the meadow ahead. As he came to the clearing he slowed his pace to a steady walk. He held his head high as she walked towards the orange and white centaur and her pygme unitaur companion. "Sia, Aeildial." He called out to them in his deep gentle voice.
Padding gracefully through the forest a deaf orange wolftaur headed towards the sunlit meadow. Her paws were silent agaisnt the forest floor. She dodged trees as she walked. Her bright blue eys looking straight ahead, she was almost there.
As she burst into the sunlight, it shone upon her pelt, making it glow a bit, but not as much as firelight does, but still bright enough to light her pelt aflame. Across the clearing she saw her brother Tarik, fully grown now, and her fully grown friend Sia and they sweet unitaur pyme friend Aeildial there. It seemed she wasn't late since appearently Tarik had just arrived too.

Sia turned her head around at the sound of her name being called. She smiled sweetly as she saw Tarik. Quickly and careful not to step on Aeildial, Sia walked over to her dark colred friend, he was fully grown she smiled at him a patted his shoulder,"How have you been old friend."She smiled yet agian. Seeing friends from the past was such a great thing.
Aeildial looked up from her weaving and saw Tarik," 'ello there!"She smiled then went back to weaving.

Tarik placed his hand on Sia's shoulder, "I'm doing well, though life has been hard. How about you?" He asked in his deepened voice. At the sound of Aeildial's voice he turned to face the pyme Unitaur, "Hello my old friend." He called to her as she started to walk towards her.
Bright blue eyes looked over the meadow as she arrived. Her paws moved silently across the grassy ground. Vena's ears caught no sound of words but she kenw they were talking. She didn't call out to them, instead she walked straight over to them, figuring hse wasn't late since it looked like Tarik had just arrived.

Sia smiled at Tarik,"Well, i've been fine, though i still can't get the hang of swimming."She said with a small laugh. She looked around and saw Vena. Sia smiled and waved to Vena,"Hi!"She said in a happy tone.
Aeildial didn't look up from her work but smiled anyways,"My, my, how everyone seems to have grow so much bigger."She chuckled at how tiny she was compaired to them now even though she was older than them.

A flash of color caught the young foxtaurs eye. He stood, still absently chewing on a long piece of grass, trying to get a better glimpse of the bright shape moving across the nearby clearing.
Carefull not to reveal himself until he was sure there was no danger, Kriss stalked the shining taur from the tree line, stopping when he heard the sounds of greetings from a group of yet unseen taurs. His soft, but clumsy paws took him quickly around two very large trees, revealing what looked like a small campsite. From the distance, it looked like two more adults and...a child!
In his excitement, and without double checking for any threat, as any lone taur as young as him should, he burst out of the forest and bee-lined over to the group to meet the other child.

Aeildail heard faint rustling and her ears twitched. She looked around to see if it was any of the others, but saw that it wasn't. She looked over at the forest and squinted her eyes, using her hand to sheild the sun from her eyes.In her other hand she still held a few flowers and the flower head band she was making.

Vena waved back as she friend waved to her and she guessed yelled a greeting. "Hello." She called back. She came closer to teh group and saw Aeildial looking off in a direction that was just off from herself. She turned her gaze and saw a small foxtaur. She smiled and started padding towards him. She made no loud noises or sudden movements. She jsut walked calmly towards him. She saw his direction of running and noticed it was towards Aeildial. She smiled.
Then turning back to face the running foxtaur she gave him a sweet smile, as if she was waiting for him to come.
Tarik laughed alongside his friends until Vena's name was called. He then lifted his head to look at his sister. He remembered her when she had grown, but she had grown even more now. "Don't worry Aeildial." He smiled, "you'll still be like a aunt to me anyways."
Winking at Sia he smirked, "Don't worry, you'll learn eventually!"

Sia looked at Tarik and snorted,"Either that or I'll drown!"She chuckled.She looked in the direction that Aeildial and Ven were looking at, she could see a foxtaur running toward the group, well toward Aeildial.
"Lucky me, I get to be the mini aunt!"Aeildial laughed. She got up and started to trot toward the little foxtaur.

Kriss suddenly noticed all the attention he was getting from the strange taurs and slowed to a cautious walk. As he made his way over to the small taur in the middle of the group, he couldn't help but notice how much taller all the other's around him were. He crouched slightly as he plodded along, ready to bolt at the first quick movement. The sweet smile from the bright taur confused him when it didn't include a greeting, and instead of returning the smile, he stared a bit too long at the lady. He passed her in silence, eager to get to the safety of the fire.
As he neared his target, he saw that a very large, intimidating horned taur was talking to the smaller being. He stopped a few feet from the crafting girl, still glancing around at the other taurs, feeling very vunerable and small. He looked down and commenced in drawing a not too straight line in the shallow dirt in front of him with his front paw, not seeing that the girl was now walking over to him.

Sia lyied down so she didn't looked so big to the little foxtaur.
Aeildial walked up to the taur and sat down,"Hello there."She smiled sweetly. She was still holding her flower head band in her tiny hand. She reached her hand out so she could shake hands with him,'My name is Aeildial, whats yours?"She asked the little foxtaur.

Vena realized she was probably scaring the smaller taur, so she slowly lowered herself to her stomach in a sitting position so she was only a head or so taller then him. "Hello." She said in a sweet tone as she tried to make herself look as unthreatening as possible. Her bright blue eyes showing kindness to the younger taur.
She brought her tail around her paws to show him she had a tail like his incase that provided comfort to him.
Tarik turned to see the young taur staring at him afraid. He took a few steps back. Standing a little be farther away hoping to seem less scary to the small taur. He decided he'd let the foxtaur get comfortable to the rest of the group before meeting a huge taur like himself. He watched them all carefully, making sure not to stare intimindatingly at the smaller taur.

The greeting from Aeildial showed, without a doubt, that she was older than she seemed. It was a surprise, but there was nothing threatening about the small taur.
The foxtaur child awkwardly took her hand as he watched the adults lower themselves to his level. It made him feel better knowing they were no longer at an advantage over him. He turned back to Aeildial and answered with a voice just above a whisper. "Hi, my name's Kriss. I...I didn't mean to um...interpet...I mean...inpertupt...wait...mess up your camp fire."
His wide eyes now lay on the large male standing just outside the group. His presence, though he was still a stranger, made Kriss feel safer somehow. His trust was already with Aeildial by virtue of her similar size, so he asked her. "Who are all these taurs? Do you know them? Are they ok?"

Aeildail smiled at the litle one,"Nice to meet you Kriss."She smiled. "These are my friends, Tarik, Vena, and Sia. They are all wonderful and kind."She pointed to Sia,"That's Sia, she's my little sister. The reason I'm so tiny is because I'm a pygme."She pointed to vena,"That is Vena,"Then she pointed to Tarik,"And this is Tarik. And it's alright that you came here, you didn't interupt anything, we always welcome others."She smiled sweetly.
Sia smiled and waved at the foxtaur.

Tarik gave a younger taur a smile. "Don't worry. If anything scary comes I'll protect you." As much as he sounded funny, he wasn't falling short of the truth, if there was anything that came near the group that threatened them, he'd jump to fight back. "Yes, I'm Tarik. I'm a cervitaur. See my antlers?" He bowed his head low so Kriss could see them better.
Vena spoke again, "I'm Vena. A wolftaur. " she wagged her tail, showing off how close it was to his. She didn't feel the need to tell him she was deaf. Her bright blue gaze kept a careful eye on him. "Yes, Tarik is a big showoff." She laughed gently, her voice sounded gentle, she knew what it was like to be and smallest or the oddest one out. She knew how gentle one would probably have to be."As Aeildial said, don't worry about intrupting."
((excuse my inability to spell please. xd blaugh ))
