The wind blowed softly, pushing clouds across the dark sky as the chirpbeasts buzzed in the background. A small olive grub clung under the belly of her lusus, the snow-white fur intertwined around her podomeres securely. She could feel the purrbeast's heart thumping above her. She nuzzled into her guardian, making a quiet squeak of affection. The gentle sway of the purrbeast calmed her as they walked farther and farther out from the caverns they had emerged from not too long ago.
Simply being above ground with no other caretakers besides the lusus, the grub felt a tinge of nervousness every so often. However, she knew that she was safe. Her new caretaker would never hurt her emotionally. Her new caretaker would teach her fun things and she wouldn't ever be bored. Her new caretaker wouldn't abandon her in the dark, so deep that the lights from the sky would never shine down to meet her. Her new caretaker would be her friend, and that was everything she could ever have asked for.
As the purrbeast stalked onwards, the gentle swaying caused the grub's eyelids to droop. As she drifted off, she wondered lightly what her new life would be like... hopefully something fun.
