Fifi slowly awoke to the gentle prodding and voice of chomps, the Cronocaw she met at the barn the night before, and spoke softly as she rose up in a hazy confused sleepy state. [color=00a99d]"Da...daddy? did you find me?"[/color] she asked aloud, her thoughts still of her father figure even now as she only just awoke, but as she quickly returned to her senses she immediately noticed the concerned looking Cronocaw that was watching over her. After a mere moment, Fifi remembered that she had met him the night before and quickly hopped up onto her two back legs and lent forward to rest her front legs on him, standing upright balancing on him as she gave him a tight sudden hug. [color=00a99d]"YAY! You escaped too!"[/color] Fifi spoke misunderstanding the situation [color=00a99d]"Are you try'na find your parents too? ooooh! We can look together and be a team! But you have to promise to never leave me! And if you promise that then we can be friends, ok!"[/color]. Fifi then suddenly turned her head around, not dismounting off him as she forcefully kept the hug going, and nodded her head towards the stream next to them. [color=00a99d]"I think-y that if we can cross this huge river then we can find our parents! But I dunno how to cross it, I don't like getting wet and the river is tooooo huge to swim"[/color]. Fifi's belly then loudly rumbled from hunger which caused her to feel a little shy, shy enough that she abruptly ended the hug and hopped off of him and looked down to the floor wistfully [color=00a99d]"hehe... Mornings are hard... always hungry, and my belly goes ROAR until I find food. Hmmm... Wanna see if we can find food as a team?"[/color]. It would seem Fifi has already designated Chomps as her friend and teammate before even getting an answer from him about his parental situation whatsoever, and as she looked back up to him she smiled empathetically, as if he was the first friend she felt she had in a long time [color=00a99d]"Thank you for helping me... no one ever believes I will find them and it makes me sad! But now we can find them as a team, and when I find daddy he will find yours too! Promise! My daddy was taken by those meanie nasty GRRRR HUMANS! They are soooo mean! They took my parents away but we will find and save them and oh oh, I bet those meanie humans did it to you too! PARENT STEALERS! Bu...but my parents are not meanies, my parents are the only nice humans that give lots of cuddles and tickles and food... I never have food now as those meanies... Hmmm... ok ok, I have an idea! we can find food and our parents! OK?"[/color]. This time Fifi actually waited for an answer from her new friend, and she even sat down as she waited for him to speak, gazing trustingly into his eyes seeing him as the first friend she could travel with. Of course this dream of her's would not come true and she needed to be convinced to head back somehow as the farm was miles away from anywhere else and without food or safe drinking water her stable but undernourished condition would get worse.
