The meadow was about 100 football field in a giant oval. It dipped in the middle. Complete with a pond and mini Island.
"We need to head for the island. bout 300ft to the woods and a 3 days walk to the Woods you're looking for." Warren said over her shoulder pointing to the otherside of the meadow, where a vast trendline was.
"You've got to be joking!?". Tara was not built for this kind of thing.
'But you are sweetie' Mom. Tara look around. She felt watched, and not in an good way. She shivered for the second time in twenty minutes. "Are you cold?" Warren asked a breeze had blown up wind. He inhaled.
Tara realized she an inch from his skin contact to him. Blushing and took two steps forward turning,
"No, I just felt like something was watching me." She pulled her bag to her and picked it up to put the straps on. Since it was like an overnight suit case. She had bought it at a flea market. When she got it home it had treasures in ever pocket, a bunch of pins in it. some said 'rock on' or had little chatters on them. another bags had pokemon pins too. She giggle out loud. She wonder if her pokmon Go would work in this place?.
"I'm ready if you are." Warren said as he sealed the door. No one could get out the door but him or her.

The man watched them. He had moved closer to the tree line. A UniWomen although she still had her humen feet. Hmmm strange. The bump on her forehead gave her away she couldn't be more then 19 maybe 20, with a horn so small. UniPeople did not age fast so a full horn where maked by decade after 10 years of age. Soon a sharp point would come from the skin soon. She was worth a fortune Double if untouched, he thought. He would take her 2 days in. As For the Wolf Decendet, it was against the law to kill one. 'mmmmm.... But not to maime' thought the Man in shadow. He left them to there chatter and destination.

"you've got to be joking!?. Why do we have to sleep on the island!?" Tara didnt want to be dreanched in the middle of the Island, and the drenched the next day while walking.
"The meadow is dangerous to sleep in." Warren stated. "You'll see. You seem to take thing better as they come."
She couldn't deny that one. She sighed and kept walking, eyes on where she stepped. Warren watch the land scape, and tree lines. He sighed. One must have come threw, the air still smelled burned. Tara was going to feeak. He chuckled out loud. Making Tara look at him, with a small frown.
"You better not be think dirty about me" Tara demand.
"Welp, now I am. Thanks" Said Warren rubbing the back if his neck and looking at the sky.
"I ment it Warren."
"What, That we cant be together. I dont see the p..."
" I don't Plan on staying Warren" Tara said in a rush.
"And what kind of Person would I be if I did that? A selfish one." Blushing at her confession, She looked away.
"You must stay Tara this is your home." Warren heart was breaking.
"No Warren this is my parents home and your home. I have nothing here." Tara with drew then in a whisper told Warren something that down would make him just want to weep. "And I wont have Moose when I go back, I'll be alone again."
"Tara I won't leave you, I promise."
Tara spun and jabbed him with a finger "You cant promises that!"
Warren grew quiet as he watched the storm in Tara white eyes.
they both walk in Silents.
They reached the edge off the pond. It went from. 6 ft deep to 150 ft deep back to 6 feet to 1 foot deep as you hit the island. Warren had held up a finger. Then pointed, about 10 to her left was a log bout 3ft wide and 7ft long, He waved her over. As she grew closer she relished there was only room for her an the cooler. She looked at Warren.
"Its okay, I'll push you to the other side, while I swim." he watch her nod and say 'thank you' and climb on boots getting wet.
The swim took 30 minute and the sun was just about to set. Warren Built a fire in a pit that was already there.
-----
The Island was about 50 by 100 feet it also housed a small shack
20ft in. Warren had said once they eat ,but out the fire an head for the shack.
Tara had a walkie over to that shack she hadden went in but looked threw the dirty window. It smelled l, her nose crinkled. You can sleep in the shack I'll stay outside, it nice out here." Tara said. "plus it smells funny."
"I bet it does seeing as the owner has been gone of over a decade."
"This is your Warren? Why are you out here in this meadow?" A breeze blew past the and Warren in hailed, Tara see him do this did tge same. It smelled like some thing is burning.
"Warren. is some thing burning?" Tara voice was alarmed.
2arren pointed to the distance, a dim light shown in the tree line, I looked like it was weaving in and out. the dim light got closer aluminting trees with fire.
Warren what the hell is that.?"
A Burnlipede, they grow up to 1o0ft tall and there body with 14, and can have anywhere up to 150 legs. they act like termites thou, eat the trees they burns, but dont get to close territory, They get mean." Watten warned, arms folded across his wide chest watching the meadows.
"It will rain in about an hour. So the fire does not take our the forest and the Burnlipeped can eat. We mark the places in the morning and someone welcome and take what left for soil."
"You home land is Eco friendly. Wish Earth was better at it." said Tara watching some kinda Cat slink threw the meadow. Her Tail bone hurt alittle, and was starting to ireatate her.
Tara looked a Warren from the side.
He seemed bigger in this world. Bout a foot taller. and serval inches wider, she was a dwarf compared to him. his embrace always felt safe, She thought. Looking back to the meadow, To see the cat catch a round Rat.
"You got to be joking, City Rats have passed to the humen world! That shit is bigger here!!" Tara blanched. Rats scared her with their sharp teeth and their worm like tails.
Warren chuckled. " Look how big the beast catching it is." He pause an look at a drake mask forming o mcat the meadow.
"Come Tara, we start early."
Tara Thought how nice it was going to be, to be dry, until went into the shack to see a vary naked Warren co wrote himself with avlenjet and roll over. Moister pooled. Damnit a maybe the rain would do her good. so she went to stand in it.
She stood until she was soaked and numb and to tired to be turn on her tail bone was killer her and the cold rain numb the pain away.
---
Warren timed her she stood in the rain for three hours. He Broke her. he new she did want him. he would ask his lordship, when the time came he promised he wouldnt bbn leave so he was going have to show her.
Tara walked back it flushed and hot. "F*co, Tara are you okay?" Warren Sat up.
"Tara." She looked at him not seeing, knee buckling and started to fall, Warren caught her. She was so hot. " Tara can you here me ?"
She mumbled an sc faded again.
Warren the striped and saw her tailbone extend, her tail was growing. She started to show violently, he warped her up in a fur. and the held her, when she disnt warm uo fast and enough,He screamed 'f*ck it' in his mind, and hugged his nakedness to her .
Stopped shivering and feel into a deep sleeping. Sighed thinking she fit jyst right and they'll be hell to pay in the morning.
