Hoshor Plains the animals inside came out to play

That clump of grass was brought alive by recognition. Orochi perked up and held his breath. He wouldn’t move any closer until he knew who that was. It could very well be a stranger, because anyone would jump up if someone called out to them. If this wasn’t Hide, he didn’t care about them.

It felt like an eternity before he got any kind of answer. Finally it comes: 
Orochi?

He took a few more steps closer, more hasty than before. This must be some sort of trick. He must be delusional! Orochi’s trot turned into a sprint. He was practically tripping over his own feet. The closer he got, the more detailed Hide’s features became, or at least an apparition of him. He had to touch him to believe he was actually there.

Once he was close enough, he leaped towards him with his front paws extended.
