Lost Creek Hollow A hollow place

A squirrel this time. She pointed out its ears and tail, trying to show him the image.

Surly as he might have seemed, Stormpup merely believed that the girl was a loon. She must have had something wrong with her to find animals in the skies. No matter how he tried, he could not squint an image into the clouds. It welled frustration in his stomach, twisting his face into a more sullen expression.

Yeah, a squirrel, he echoed, hoping that she wouldn't think he was dumb for not seeing her imaginary friends.
