Hooked on a feeling...

​Something big was going to happen.  Acorn could feel it in his wings.  It was the type of feeling that makes one shiver and itch.  An itch that can't be reached that drives one crazy trying to find some way to scratch it.  The problem was that it couldn't be scratched with rubbing up on a tree or even using a branch.

Now Acorn is an easy going type of Fae and loves living in his woods.  He is familiar with all the creatures... from the buggle beetle to the bushy tail squirrels and even a tree frog or two. Of course he knows that he has a reputation of having a kinda of impish personality, but can he help it if others take his "I am thinking" look to mean something more?

Acorn is hooked on this feeling!  Something is stirring the air of magic around him!  These tingling feelings have to be investigated.  He has avoided some sticky situations in the past because he didn't ignore them.  Acorn reaches for his vest and puts on his shoes.  Even though the shoes might have a hole or two in them, they will hold up for the adventure he is setting out on.  Placing his acorn hat on his head and then securing his bag of "necessities", he starts out to search for what is pulling at him.  The little knoll that hid his house is soon left behind as he sets out to see who else might be feeling this "itchy" feeling in the air.

​At the edge of the forest Acorn spotted Tad, a tree frog, on his favorite hangout, a mushroom.  "Hi Tad.  How's it hopping?" asked Acorn.

​"No frog jokes Acorn."

"Come'on Tad - pull yourself off of that mushroom and talk to me."

"Don't you have somewhere to go Acorn?"

"That's why I am here to ask you if you have been getting an 'itchy' feeling pulling you somewhere?"

​"No.  I haven't been doing anything but sunning myself here on my favorite spot.  I have heard that the fish are avoiding the pond by the caves though.  Something about some kinda of ripping affect going on there they tell me." 

"Thanks Tad."

"I wonder if what I am looking for is at the caves?" muses Acorn.  "I think I will head that way..."
