Tammy walked through the trees and breathed in deeply. Ever since she had come here all she could do was think about her father. Something here reminded her of him. And even worse, here in this place, she felt more alone than she ever had. Where was her brother when she needed him, where was a friendly face when she was down, and where was that boy...the one she saw passing her constantly..?

Eric hopped from branch to branch among the forest trees. He felt free and as light as a bird. Some people may think of him as a bit crazy, but life without a bit of crazyness was dull. He then leapt down to the ground, pulling the tuck and roll manuever. He grinned as he completed it. He still had it in him. He pushed his way among ferns and vines, listening to the wild around him. All of a sudden he came upon a girl. He quickley backed into the shadows, studying her movements. She didnt seem a threat, but you nnever knew in this forest world.

Tammy froze as she heard sounds through the trees. She frowned and listened hard and when the sounds stopped she kept walking shaking her head at her own stupidity. Looking up into the trees she saw a nest and smiled to herself. She slipped off her shoes and began to climb up the tree, when she reached the nest she looked in and almost laughed at the two chirping birds.
'awww.' she cooed petting one of them, then looking down from where she was she saw a shadow and frowned watching the boy carefully.. she couldnt see him clearly but she didnt take her eyes off him.

Eric moved back into the shadows more, but realized he was spotted. He hesitated a moment, not sure what to do, but then stepped into the open. "What is your business among these mountains and trees?" he asked.

Tammy jumped to the ground and almost smiled.
'My business is to get some clear air. I always find comfort among the more simple things. And you?' she asked now looking at him curiously.

Eric stood up straight and started strolling around the clearing. "I come to discover. I have found squirrels, bears, and pixies in the forest. But never a girl." He bent over to pick a mushroom, and after much inspection, bit into it. "Plus, the forest be a very delicious place." He said, laughing.

Tammy smiled.
'Surely I cannot be the only girl to ever wander into a forest?' But she shrugged and looked just beyond a grove of trees.
'There are forest berries over there.' she said pointing, a smiled evident.

Eric looked over, confirming it. "Ay, there be, but that is out of the clearing. Who knows what dangers may lurk beyond?" He said, wandering to the edge. "Maybe a person can watch my back?" He said, raising an eyebrow.

Tammy laughed and nodded.
'Ill watch your back then, and if you get in any danger ill be sure to scream as loud as a girl can.' she joked. She walked over behind him and looked out.
'Im sure it will be fine but ill protect you if you get into trouble.' she said rolling her eyes and smiling again.

Eric grinned. "Im glad im in such great hands." He said jokingly. He walked out to the bush and started pulling berrys off, gethering them in a sack at his side. All of a sudden he was tugged into the bushes.
Eric had faked being pulled in, just as a joke. Funny, he was never really for playing jokes, but he just couldnt resist it this time. He started yelling. He had to shove his fist in his mouth later though, he was laughing so hard.

Tammy's eyes opened wide for a moment and then she decided to play along.
'Oh no...what will i do? all alone in this dangerous forest!' then she crept around the bush and jumped in next to him.
'Hi.' she said smiling.

Eric turned and laughed when she jumped in. "No fair, you were supposed to go through the front. And, you didnt scream like you said you would. Im Eric, by the way. I guess i was having too much fun to introduce myself." He said, extending a hand.

Tammy laughed and held out her hand, shaking his.
'Im Tammy. And I apologise for not screaming, my high pitched girlie voice isnt what it was when i was six.' she laughed.
