“What the fuck?!”
Cloudhawk jerked and scrambled to sit upEyes wide, his sudden moveh frightened the creatures didn’t flee farThey gathered a dozen or so feet away and continued to watch this stranger who had tumbled from the sky
What fresh hell did he find himself in? It wasn’t the desert, there were no ruins… it was some sort of forest
Cloudhaas stupefied by the viewCreatures were everywhere, thousands of theathered in one placeHe sat a them naked as the day he was born and covered in sticky fluidA pungent medicinal scent wafted off of him, probably what attracted these creatures
They weren’t largeThe shly half the size of his palh a couple of poundsThere were birds too, owl-like ones that watched hireesThose were a little larger than his fist
Big or small every one of them was adorable and interacted peacefully with each otherIt was a shocking reversal from where he’d cos that would sooner kill you than look at you
Cloudhawk stood and noticed the ground was littered with nutshells and fruit husksThe forest had to be rich with food, no wonder there were so many crittersPerhaps that was also why they were so docileAt least for the moment he didn’t feel like they were a threat
“The hell are you doin’? Go! fuck off!” Once they saw that Cloudhaasn’t violent several s on his backHe swatted at the fuzzy things to keep the little shi+ts! Keep fuckin’ with me! See if I don’t have you for dinner!”
You could take the boy out of the wasteland but never the wasteland out of the boyHe was as crass and grouchy as ever, and the woodland creatures had never encountered a beast so orneryThe offending critters bounded away a few feet then sat back on their hind legs to stare at him
This place eird!
The forest was lush and croith plant life, so fruitOne tree in particular caught his eye, an ancient of the forest with creatures cli in and out of holes in its trunkIt must serve as a home for many of the ani around Cloudhaasn’t just oneMany enor the area, every one of them at least a hundred a fifty feet tallTen people couldn’t surround one with their arms stretched around itThe distance between theht wasEach tree’s croas perfectly round and hung over hirass and foliage, but as Cloudhawk spread his eyes toward the horizon he could see hundreds of these treesThey looked aliant mushrooms
Each one the same shape, the same size, and evenly spaced…
What natural forest had such neat arrangements?
Animals crawled in and out of holes that, to Cloudhawk, looked a lot like old s set in the tree trunksHe io where intelligent creatures livedFor some unknown reason society had disappeared and animals moved inOver time the place became a forest
Cloudhawk’s skin still burned and itched, residual das were they’d kept him inHe absently scratched but paid the sensation littlea couple enormous leaves off the trees to fashi+on hily bits before the critters mistook them for berries
Thankfully the denizens of the tree village proved harmlessThere were plentiful nuts and fruits for theh he could relax around theilant, for just because he didn’t sense danger right away didn’t ht around the corner!
Each tiht hi they all had in coent life, or used toBut for reasons he could never tell they all seemed abandoned for thousands of years and left behind ruins that ine what life ave up control, the wilds crept back in to lay claie, Cloudhawk noted, he didn’t see anyaniy keep in balance?
After wandering for a little while Cluodhawk caround with tufts of furIt see out here was the natural enemy of the peaceful forest crittersWhatever the case he had to find somewhere safe to hide outUntil the sedatives wore off, out here unarmed and defenseless he o back? Unacceptable! He refused to get caught up and becoain!
“Move! C’mon, out of the way!”

A flood of animals had poured out of the trees to look at this bizarre newco from tree branches and skittered around his feet like a tideEverywhere he looked were bobbing heads, no open pathClearly they did not fear round without resistanceHe felt like if he weren’t careful he’d crush a bunch just trying to walk around
Just then a faint pulse caught Cloudhawk’s attention
