Yui new found herself in the forest area. The forest was full of noises and wonder. She spun around, enjoying how the light filtered through the leave and how it dances in the wind. The light shuttered on the floor of the forest with every wind and it seemed like the wonder was never ending.
Yui brushed her fingers against a leaf, feeling it's smooth surface. The leaf shuttered under her touch, gently flickering when her fingers left it. Yui smiled, enjoying the cool surface of the green leaf. She bent down, touching a brave little forest flower who competed tirelessly with the trees for sunlight.
The damp earth felt nice as it sunk down with every step. Yui removed her shoes and began to walk barefoot, finding the shoes constantly stuck in the earth. The ground was cool under her feet and moist enough to break apart easily. The rich scent of earth filtered through the air with every step, the fresh air surrounding her. She let the air flow through her, causing her to grow tired. After being cooped up for so long it was hard not to feel drowsy from all of the fresh air. She enjoyed being outside- it remended her of her family's shrine which was connected to nature itself.
The forest almost seemed magical it was so calm and lovely. She continued down the path, wishing to see more that this wondrous place had in store for her. She walked farther in, not caring if she couldn't find her way back. She didn't actually need anything to survive after all. So she kept up her pace, every once in a while feeling some rock under her foot on the mostly dirt path. Yui couldn't help but wonder why barely any plants grew on the path in front of her, since there was nothing to stop them from growing anywhere they wanted too. She was surprised when she noticed that some plants on the path had been pulled up recently, meaning that this place was well maintained. Satisfied with that answer, she kept up her pace.
Soon she found a big pile of rocks on the side of the road, trees growing out of them in weird and bizarre ways. Drawn to the weird tangle of wood and rock, she walked over to it and began to skale the pile. Sticking her feet into holes on the rock, she quickly climbed the smooth surface, digging her fingers into roots to pull herself up. She wiped some sweat, not use to physical movement after being dead for so long. She reached the top and sat down leaning against a tree that leaned back as well, allowing her a comfortable seat. The tree was not rounded on the side she was laying on, rather flat actually, as if it was made for someone to sleep on. She breathed heavily, tired from climbing the large rocks. Still, it was oddly easy to get up and it seemed like there was an easy escape route. A long rock lay on the side, looking just like a slide and landing right into a swept pile of leaves.
Yui leaned forward, suddenly finding it rather odd. The rock almost looked like it had been carved out, but was smooth as possible. Perhaps she wasn't the only one who loved this rock. Perhaps someone else had slid down that rock over and over again. It was rather nice ther. Turning away from the path you could see that there was a small, open field beside it. In the field wandered a doe, looking straight at Yui. It didn't seem to care too much about her, just curious who she was. A small fawn bounded towards her. The doe bent her head down to dazzle the young deer, licking it lovingly on the head.
The fawn turned to her and flicked it's ear, taking a few steps towards her. Yui, now fully rested, slid down the rock, ready to take back to the path. The fawn however had different plans for her. Yui nearly fell to her feet as it head butted her. She turned around as the curious fawn began to praud her. Nervous, Yui turned to the mother. The mother didn't seem to care one way or another, eating grass in the field, even going as far as to turn away from Yui.
The fawn began to lick her chin, causing her to giggle. Carefully, she placed a hand on it's head and began to stroke its fur. It continued to lick her, slowly moving up her face. Yui tried not to laugh as it began to lick over her easy, keeping them clenched. She tried to pull her face away, but the little spotted deer wasn't letting her get away.
It began butting her chest, biting her clothes and pulling at them. Yui let her fingers brush down it's neck and soon began to pet it's spotted back, fully enjoying the loving treatment. The fawn's muscles twitched naturally, as it trying to flick a fly off of it.
Suddenly the fawn turned, seeing it's mother begin to leave the open field. It suddenly bolted away from Yui, jumping across the long grassed field. It caught up with it's mother, happily jumping around her. Yui smiled, watching as they disappeared from her sight. She shook her head, a smile forming on her lips.
Yui turned back to the path, wiping her face of any drool the deer left on her face, a smile coming onto her lips. She had never touched a deer before, since they were mostly wild animals, but she always loved how the fawns played, running around crazily.
She headed back on the path, hoping for another happy encounter. She had no idea what animals lived in this forest, but there had to be lost of them. Birds chirped around her, fluttering wildly through the trees. A squirrel rushed through the trees, jumping from branch to branch, squealing in delight.
An acorn fell from a tree, landing on Yui's head. She picked it up, inspecting it. She smiled, enjoying the sudden coincidence. However, her thoughts were interrupted when a squirrel bounded down from a tree nearby. She squeaked in surprise when it bolted towards her, climbing up the side of her dress. It rushed along her arms and reached her hand, grabbing the nut that laid idly in her hand.
Yui laughed as it began to eat, feeling joy bubble up. Today was full of surprises involving animals. She had never seen a place with so many friendly animals before. It was as if lots of people had been there before, causing the animals to grow use to people. Yui smiled as the squirrel flicked around on her shoulders, finding a comfortable spot on her head.
She walked down the path, squirrel in tow, finding it's little paws ticklish with every step. A big smile found it's paw to her lips as it crawled down onto her shoulder, suddenly jumping off and crawling up a tree. It disappeared quickly and left Yui alone once more. But before she could move again, a bunny popped out in front of her. Hopping to her, it put it's pawn on her leg, staring up at her. Smiling, she picked it up as if it was a pet. She placed it in her arms and it sniffed her face. Soon it too began licking her chin and eyes. She laughed again, loving the animals of this forest. Soon she found herself surrounded in bunnies. She fell to her knees to put the first one down but soon found them all over her lap.
She laughed and smiled, petting all the bunnies the best she could. But there were just too many, maybe 15 of them. A few of them were very young, one tripping over it's feet and quickly grooming the dirt from ti's paws. Yui smiled. She loved it here.
