I have returned from Little Rock. I also got some story ideas from the trip. Remember to review.
Tree climbing
Daniel and Larmina were exploring the woods and talking. Suddenly, a giant tree caught Daniel's attention.
"Hey, Larmina, what kind of tree is that?" Daniel asked the Arusian.
"That's actually a tree imported from Earth. It's a Bald Cypress tree. It looks fake in my opinion." Larmina informed him.
Daniel walked around the tree, feeling the rough bark and knocking on the wood.
"No, it's real." Daniel clarified.
"What makes you the expert?" Larmina demanded.
"I climb trees for fun. And, I'm gonna climb this one." Daniel said confidently.
"What?" Larmina asked.
"I'm gonna climb this tree." Daniel said.
He backed up, and charged towards the tree. He jumped several feet and latched his body onto the trunk.
"Daniel! You'll hurt yourself! The branches are still like six feet up!" Larmina yelled.
"Don't. Care." Daniel grunted.
He started to shimmy his body up, moving at an extremely slow pace. Larmina frantically called the pilots as she watched Daniel. When the pilots and Vince arrived, Daniel was almost up to a branch.
"Daniel Chandler! What are you doing up there?!" Allura screeched.
"Climbing." Daniel answered.
"Get down before you hurt yourself!" Keith ordered.
"No." Daniel said.
Daniel took a deep breath, and jumped, twisting his body away from the trunk. His calloused hands gripped a sturdy branch. Daniel hung there for a few seconds before bringing the rest of his body onto the branch.
"How did he do that? I've only seen cats do that before." Lance said in bewilderment. Everyone shrugged.
Daniel was now smoothly bringing his body to the very top. In a matter of minutes, Daniel was there, staring over the trees.
"Whoa, you guys need to check it out. It's amazing." Daniel said into his voltcom.
"Daniel, we can't see you anymore." Lance said in concern.
"It's awesome up here." Daniel just said, memorized by all the colors of the sky.
"Daniel, you need to come down for dinner." Allura said.
"Okay." Daniel said and looked around. That's when he realized something...
"Guys, I'm stuck." Daniel said frantically.
"Use the way you got up to come down." Lance told him.
"I can't remember how I got up!" Daniel exclaimed.
"So you're stuck up there?!" Larmina yelled.
"Yes! Get a ladder or call the fire department! I can't get down!" Daniel screamed, clutching the branch he had been standing on earlier.
Down below...
"I'll get a ladder." Hunk said and walked off.
"I told him not to climb the tree." Larmina grumbled.
"It's Daniel. He'll get stuck in the tree again in less than twenty-four hours." Keith sighed.
Okay people. Tell me what you think. This idea came while I was walking a trail, and I saw the extremely tall Cypress tree. Remember: if you want me to make a separate story on Daniel's family, tell me.
