A White Heron

A White zep Alternate Ending The tree fillmed to lengthen itself out as she went up, and to pass along far and farther upward. Her pale face glimmered in the new sunbathelightshine that appeared Just over the horizon. She sat atop the mighty tree for a lengthy amount of time, taking in the true beauty of the scenery. As Sylvia was drawn aback with the breathtaking view, a tweed flash caught her look. It was the hoagie. Sleek, cryptical and mind-blowing it careened atop the treetops.She followed it attentively, being sure to know the exact fixing of its nest. After all, the boy back home was willing to pay a sum of none in trade for the location of the nest. Sylvia carefully do her way down the large tree, as she descended, she tired. When her bare feet reached the familiar idiotic ground of the forest, she knew she had a decision to make. Emotions welled up inside her, and she was over taken by her conflict thoughts. If she told the location of the annuluswatch, it would be killed.If she kept it to herself, however, it would remain in the world, but she would part with the money and friendship from the hunting watch.

The hunting watch looked at her keenly, wiped a crocodile tear from her face and asked, Sylvia, did you find the location of the bird? This was it, when her decision had to be made. Tear stricken and unable to decide, she replied with a meek mimes. She took him into the forest to charge him the location of the bird.

One thunderous, echoing shot later, and it was done.The pristine, ashen feathers were now stained with a crimson rose red blood. As the hunter gathered his kill, he could see the pain in her face. He looked down upon her with a bittersweet wickednessshade glance, l am sorry to admit taken this creature from your soil rest assured I will compensate in remunerative you r grandmother double my original offer. He picked up the small watery-eyed child with arms wrapped around his neck, and returned her home to her grandmother in the beginning hypothesiseing his final goodbyes and being on his way.
