Entry 21 – October 26, 2012
I had a bit of an issue tonight. The rest of the day was almost perfect. It was just tonight that where I had a problem. I went up to the tree-house and waited for the creature. It didn't take too long. I think it's starting to arrive faster than it previously did before. When it arrived, it jumped on the branch of the nearby tree (the one it seems to always go to) roughly again. I said to it: "Be careful! You're going to break that branch if you aren't". I heard a snort from the tree. I guess the creature didn't like me mentioning that again. Suddenly, the tree (that the creature was in) started to shake. I saw it was bending to the side the creature's branch was on. It was bouncing on the branch! I didn't say anything. I was just thinking "What is it doing?!". The creature just kept jumping on the branch. I was just about to say something until I heard a large snap. The branch had broke. Right after it snapped, I heard the creature scream. That was a sound I never heard before and one I never want to hear again. It scared me enough to where I fell out of my desk chair and onto the deck. I expected to hear a loud thud, but no, I heard something else. I don't even know how to explain the sound. I jumped up and heard another nearby tree shake. I quickly looked over at it and saw the creature's tail. I then noticed something new. The moonlight revealed a large wing, protruding out of the leaves of the tree. Wings?! What is this thing?! I've been wondering this ever since I started this journal, but seriously, What am I dealing with? The sight of a single wing disappearing into the dark cover was shocking. If anything, it is a good thing this creature has wings. It would have been pretty hurt if it fell from the tree. That would be something I would not want to attend. Even if it meant I could see all of what the creature looked like, I wouldn't want to see it in pain. After all this, I sat back down in my chair, breathing heavily. I asked the creature if it was alright. It sounded like it was. I was then pretty much speechless. After I bade the creature a good night and went back to my house, I just felt confused. I still feel confused. This wasn't something I was expecting at all. I guess maybe the idea came across my mind once or twice, but I thought it was a crazy idea. So, a winged reptile? Am I on earth or is this some other planet? I really need to rest my mind. I've been thinking way too much recently. I just need to let this day expire. Tomorrow might bring some serenity.
