A six year old Olette was playing in the forest when she heard something rustling in the bushes.
"W-who's there"Olette asked. Then she heard a branch snap which made her start to cry.
"Don't cry I wasn't trying to scare you"a skinny and short boy said stepping out of the bushes.
"Well you did"Olette said sitting on the ground pouting.
"Sorry I was just trying to have fun"the boy said. When Olette didn't say anything he continued.
"I'm Aeleus"the boy said.
"Wanna play a game"Olette asked.
"Sure what game"Aeleus asked.
"Hide and seek of course you count i'll hide"Olette said before running away to hide
"Count to what"Aeleus yelled but Olette was already out of sight so Aeleus started counting.
"One..two..three..four..five...six...seven...eight...nine...ten"
Olette could hear him counting and she still hadn't found a she saw a tree with huge roots and when she went up to it she noticed that there was a hole under the roots.
"sixteen...seventeen..seventeen..uh ready or not here I come"Aeleus yelled. Aeleus walked around the forest calling her name until he came to the tree Olette had found. He walked up to it and right into a hole.
"Ahhhh"he screamed as he slid down the hole. When he got to the bottom he found a laughing Olette.
"What are you laughing at"Aeleus asked trying to seem tough.
"You scream like a little girl"Olette said laughing.
"Do not"Aeleus said crossing his arms as his smile was replaced with a scowl.
"Do to"Olette said sticking her tongue out at him.
"Where are we"Aeleus asked.
"I'm not really sure I thought this would be a good hiding spot"Olette said.
"What if we can't get out"Aeleus asked.
"Don't say that I don't wanna die here"Olette said after they both heard footsteps and a low growl.
"We're gonna die"Aeleus said starting to cry.
"I'm too young to die"Olette said hugging Aeleus and crying.
"Why are you crying"A white wolf said.
"Ah don't eat me"Aeleus said hiding behind Olette.
"I'm not gonna eat you"the wolf said.
"Why can you talk"Olette asked.
"I was a woman but after I died my soul found its way to this body you see me in now"the wolf said.
"Do you know how to get out of here"Olette asked.
"Of course child but first I will get you something to drink you both look terrified"the wolf said.
Olette just nodded and let the wolf lead her and Aeleus further into the tunnel and into a small room with tea.
"Wait in here my children and I will be back soon"the wolf said.
Aeleus and Olette waited but they got bored so Aeleus took a rock and started drawing on the wall.
"What are you doing"Olette asked.
"I'm bored"Aeleus said.
"What are you drawing"Olette asked leaning to see his picture.
"It's you but its a surprise and you can't see till i'm done"Aeleus said covering up the picture.
"Fine then i'll draw a picture of you to"Olette said.
"Alright i'm done"Aeleus said moving his hands for Olette to see.
"Thats funny"Olette said laughing.
"Alright let's see yours"Aeleus said.
"Close your eyes"Olette said.
"But I didn't make you close your eyes"Aeleus whined.
"Close your eyes"Olette said again.
"Fine"Aeleus said closing his eyes.
"Alright open um"Olette said moving to reveal her picture.
"Hey how come i'm so short"Aeleus asked.
"Because you are"Olette said ruffling his hair.
"Stop that"Aeleus said pushing her hand away.
"Children I can show you the way out now"the wolf the kids got up and followed the wolf who lead them to a ladder which led them out.
"You are welcome to come back any time you want"the wolf said.
"Thanks"Aeleus and Olette both said before walking off.
"Alright its your turn to count"Aeleus Olette could answer a woman came running up.
"Princess Olette my dear there you are I have been looking everywhere for you"the woman said.
"Your a princess"Aeleus asked.
"Of course she is and who are you"the woman asked getting in his face.
"That's Aeleus he's my friend"Olette said smiling.
"Friend? With a peasant ha that's preposterous. My daughter will not be friends with such a low life"the queen said.
"But mother"Olette whined.
"No buts young lady it's time to get home"the queen said grabbing Olette's hand and dragging her along.
Olette turned her head and waved goodbye with her free hand saying goodbye to her new friend.
