Run Free

@Inari — Backdated before joining thread. Again, so sorry for the delay. >_> I just found out that my uncle passed away as well so...yeah....been having a rough week or two. 

The sun was high in the sky by the time she had arrived to the place where she had planned to rest from her long journey. Before her was a spring of some kind decorated with lotus and flowers. It certainly was a sight to see. Her black dipped tail happily tapped the ground as she sat under a weeping willow tree. In her mind she couldn't have found a better place to relax. Mint eyes stared at the water, her tongue running across her lips with the yearning to have a taste. She rose from her laying position and after a good stretch she walked calmly to the water's edge. Stopping just short of touching the water with her paws she brought her muzzle down so that she could lap it up with her tongue. 

The freshness of the water reminded her of how thirsty she really was and she felt that she couldn't stop any time soon. Although her stomach started to protest so she forced herself to bring it to an end. Eyes gazed out at the scenery in front of her with mer mind alive with thoughts and ideas. A paw moved forward and became drenched. A pleasant sigh passed her lips and she debated whether she should move further into the body of water or to just continue to admire it on dry land.
