Silver Creek Bon Appétit

Laurel just woke up and smacked her lips sleepily when she heard the voice. It was a familiar voice, and Laurel got to her feet to go meet it. Ears perked forward and she scrambled out of the den at high speed, nearly colliding with one of Spring's legs as she did. Laurel looked up at Spring with a haughty, disturbed expression on her face and screeched: "NO!" which was the first word that Laurel had learned and the only word that she presently used at all. How dare Spring stand in her way?

Yet soon Laurel noticed the fish and her expression changed, the hunger rumbling in her belly taking over and the scent of the fish telling her this would take care of the hunger. Laurel greedily looked at the fish, giving Spring a second or three to hand it over before she would try to take it herself.
