"Being an adult is the best!" I say to myself. Soaring through the air, being able to pick your nest spot, being friends with whoever you want to be friends with. But you have to be careful, a couple of days ago a carnivorous plant almost ate me! I hear the sound of a jump charging, and immediately fly out of range. Thats the sound of either a managarmer, or a shadowmane. Soon after I left the nest, i learned that not all shadowmanes are nice. I decide to turn around and see which on it was, and to my suprise, it was a human riding a quetz, holding a shadowmane. It was the pride trying to jump up and attack. I decide to carfully follow the quetz. But when they had to land, it turned around and looked right at me! I flew to the ground just in time so they didnt see me. But once they take off, i hear a noise behind me. I turn around and see the shadowmanes pride! Im about to take off, when i hear one of them say "Wait! We're not here to hurt you!" I land carfully, still worried. "You arent?" I ask. "We just want to ask where that quetz went." He says. "oh, they went straight ahead." I reply. "Thanks!" He shouts while running. I start flying home, when i feel something stick to me. I quickly turn around and see a bloodstalker! I start frantically flying up, trying to losen the web. I hear it repeating "Foooood, fooood, foooood, foooood." I can feel the strand loosening as i fly, and then its off! I start flying straight up out of range of its webs, when i hear "come back, i just want to heeeelp you!" I may have gotten in its web, but im not dumb enough to fall for that! After all of that, I need to get home! But then i think of that shadowmane pride, what if they get lost? I decide to hang around for the rest of the day. I find a good spot to wait, and dose off.
