Hello again
@Exoplanet @Adge @Oaktree @Shaz51 @HenryX @Flax
Lovely to see a follow on to one of the story suggestions.. Little Bee busily gathering harvest...knowing where to find the more exotic tastes within the forest...
What a smorgasbord available to her..
Unbeknownst to Little Bee....Red brown dog always had one eye open ...keeping an eye out for all going ons in and out of the castle....some rather unusual visitors..
He was off chasing the latest visitor across the green grassed area surrounding the back part of the castle...the front of the castle overlooking the waves of the seas weaving in and out with tides...sometimes spraying water high up on the rocks...
He followed the little bee deeper into the forest or woodlands....he was on an adventure...not thinking about where he was going...who was following him...who was still observing from afar..
He skidded to a halt as he came upon a Golden Wattle.....this species of plant caused his eyes to itch and without any warning ...he began sneezing incessantly...
This sneezing heard from the library window opened to let huge realms of dust out as a very heavy book was being lifted down by the little girl and her friend Horrace the bat...
On hearing the sneezing she slammed the book shut quickly...left it lying on the huge antique desk...
Hurrying outside running as fast as she can to locate the source of the sneezing...
She did not have many visitors and was so excited...curious but anxious at the same time...
She did not notice a black creature crouched low on the ground ahead of her....
She ran like the wind and promptly tripped head over heals over the black crouched creature....
She lay there shocked unable to work out what had happened...
the black creature moved and sprang on top of her ....paw extended....claws showing....he swatted her and sprang away meowing ...sounding like a wailing..
The little girl looked back in the direction this black creature sprang off to and recognised it to be a sleek black cat..
at this moment the cat must have felt her fixed stare ...turning around their eyes locked...
Vivid green slanted eyes locked into the darkest wide brown eyes ...a stand off.....
The cat was lost and sensed this wide dark brown eyed little girl might befriend him..
Slowly the little girl picked herself up off of the ground ...gently approaching the vivid green santed eye cat with a shiny black coat..
She reached him...speaking softly to him all the while during her approach...hand held out..
He promptly jumped into her arms and they cuddled each other...
Now a rumbling from within the shiny black cat emerged louder and louder....the little girl found so warm and safe inside as she felt and heard the purring of her new friend...
Sooty was delighted....
Was he genuingly wanting a new friend?
Or was he scheming?
How would he get on with red brown dog.....whom he had noticed frolicking around without any sense of direction...
Little bee held herself back between the foliage of the wattle tree...waiting...
Your turn Sooty...
Professor X..
Gumnut are piano lessons happening yet or has the little girl missed her lesson?
Horrace did you fly out of the open library window?
Where is Megs hiding ? Is she burying her treasure elsewhere for now?
Can I hear welsh singing in the background? The Cook? Might the Cook be @Shaz51 who is often to busy stocking the larder with food which seems to disappear so quickly.....Let alone cooking meals..
Who is stealing the food?
Little Bee might want to come closer?
Will this merry troupe of characters who are doing their very best to get along....go off on an adventure exploring the castle and beyond where ancient history remains can be found?
