Coco made her way through the snow storm as quick as she could. She had to get out of there soon, or she would freeze and get hypothermia or die, in any case, she had to hurry. She pulled the blanket tighter on her body and pulled her hood forward more, in an attempt to keep her body heat. She suddenly heard a faint crying in the near distance, making her stop for a few seconds as it suddenly went away the same time she stopped. She shook her head a couple times and began running again, hearing the same crying from the same area. She paused again as the crying went on, coming from the west side. She quickly ran to it, her black hair blowing in the wind as she ran in the direction the soft crying came from.
She saw a large tree in front of her path, definitely where the noise was coming from. She ran faster to get to it, as the soft crying suddenly turned into wailing from a baby. She looked under the roots of a tree, where a small light blue bundle was making a noise that you would have to be deaf not to hear. She quickly pulled it out, huddling it close to her body. She tightened the cloth around herself, then the baby's own light blue blanket, trying to keep the heat in for both of them. She ran back to the castle, where the Kewolens lived, quickly bringing her inside where there was warmth.
"Coco! Where have you been? We've been waiting for you forever!" Kyra yelled, running to give her a hug, but suddenly stopped, staring at the light blue bundle.
"What the hell is that doing here!?" Kyra suddenly shrieked, getting the attention of everyone around them.
"Shut up and come" Coco put her finger on her friends lips, dragging her into her bedroom.
They eventually got to the room, as she closed and locked the door, keeping everyone who was following them out.
"I think it's a human baby, not a nymph baby" She replied calmly, unwrapping the now silent baby from it's cold blue blanket, giving it a soft-colored purple one instead.
"But, what the hell?" She asked, poking it's nose
"Stop that!" Coco hit her friends hand. "I'm not sure how it got here. But I wasn't going to leave her in the cold alone"
"Dammit Coco, you know what everyone is saying about you and your research about humans. This will only add more rumors" she looked at her friend worriedly. "How do you know it's not a nymph?" She asked, her worried stare going to a glare
"Look at it's ears and face color" She replied changing her clothes to one that weren't frozen.
Coco looked at the babies ears and face with Kyra, some what stuck in an awe.
"See? Nymph bodies can't change color to blue and they have the same ears as we do, not rounded ones." Coco touched the baby's ears with her purple finger.
Nymphs had the same skin color as humans, but are a lot paler, unlike the Kewolens, who have pure purple skin and usually have the darker hair colors.
"Okay, fine. It's not a Nymph. But how are we supposed to keep her away from everyone?" Kyra humpfed, crossing her arms and turning away from the baby. Coco rolled her eyes.
"Look, if you help me take care of her, you can name her" She offered her friend. Kyra looked back at the baby, then at her friend.
"Well.. I can't let you handle this on your own.." Kyra smiled as Coco smiled back.
"Thank you so much" Coco pulled her friend into a hug
"So what do you want to name her?" Coco asked letting go of the hug
"Let's see.. Do you mind if I name her after my sister?" Kyra asked looked down at the baby. Coco shook her head and smiled
"Okay. Pheobe it is."
