What a surprise! We went!!!!

Didja notice? I said "we." Yep. BOTH of us! Fleur and I. I think it's some kind of miracle and Fleur is blown
away.

But I'm getting WAY ahead of myself.

We fell asleep in each others arms. I think we were both exhausted from the stress of trying to hard, and I was
starting to go through another bout of depression worrying about Johnathon and I think Fleur knew it. She
always does. She has a sixth sense about these things.

I woke up staring into Bahoogie's laughing and leering face. "Me show you stuff! Help you know what not do."

I smiled at him, as I touched the belt around my waist. It was the bright leafy green I'd originally seen.

He smiled when he watched me rub it. He absently ran his hands across his own belt and nodded. "Belt good.
Says you good prey. Follow me!" he told me, moving away from me in an odd hopping motion which was his
method of "walking" along the branch. Kind of like watching one of those monkeys I've seen on the Discovery
Channel bouncing along the ground. No, I think it was a lemur, not a monkey. Ah, I've forgotten! Something
else really weird, too. His backside pulsed slightly, as if that's where his lungs are.

Anyway, I followed him UP the long root/branch thingie, trying to catch up, the phrase "good prey" still in my
mind.

"Hey, wait up! What do you mean by makes me 'good prey?"

He turned and looked at me, his antennae bobbing and his head tilting. "You really not know?" he asked with
some concern in his voice.

I stopped in front of him and shrugged. "I'm sorry, Bahoogie. I don't know what you mean by being prey."

He grinned hugely at that point. Then he pointed to his chest. "I SHOW you how to be good prey. You not
LOOK to get eaten, but if you get caught you be good guest. You make self taste good. How you taste?" he
asked me curiously

I stepped back. He'd was pointedly looking at my, um, pubic area.

"Taste?" I squeaked out.

He nodded, still smiling and stroked his heavy penis again. "Taste! I taste like salt fruit and the tasty hrazg
fruit." (I think that's how it's spelled. That's how it's pronounced anyway!)

"You taste like what you eat?" I asked, fascinated but still worried.

He nodded proudly. "I find you hrazg fruit. You like it I bet! Follow me!"

Excitedly he made his way quickly along the branch and when he was sure I was following he rose up and
hovered, no longer hopping. He turned in mid air and flew slowly backward.

He stopped a moment, darted up into the trees and then came back down, carrying two oval globes of fruit. They
resembled something between a guava and an apple.

"Not hrazg but good anyway. You taste!" He bit heartily into his, juices dribbling down his nonexistant chin.

I worried a moment about noncompatibility of fruit and my digestive system and then shrugged. If it's a dream,
well, heck, it won't hurt me. If it's real...oh hell. Maybe it won't be harmful. I bit into it.

Oh, my god.

Ever bite into a piece of fruit and have your mouth explode in delight?

I think my whole head exploded. The damn thing tasted like, oh...a peach/apple/orange. My mouth could NOT
make up its mind.

I smiled widely. "Wow. This is GOOD!"

He nodded proudly. "Is very good. Better than hrazg but I wanted to see how you like. I like. Hard to find, but is
good bunch above us. I found it because I found you. You good luck!" he grinned and took another bite, settling
down on the branch as he nibbled. I took a few minutes and nibbled on mine until it was just a stem and one fat
pit.

He took it from me and examined it. "Is good nut." He looked at me again. "No pouch. I hold onto it for you.
When it dry it good to eat, too!"

"Really?" I asked, fascinated. "The center is edible too?"

He nodded. "I go get more for us to carry while I show you stuff. We might not find again." He hovered backward.
"You want to follow?"

I looked up at all the branches I could crawl up and decided to take the chance. He pointed out an almost ladder-
like affair of vines and I decided to climb that. I climbed easily while he hovered just a couple feet from me,
grinning.

"Just there," he pointed. Past fat green heartsy leaves."

I looked at huge thick leaves shaped like hearts. (Duh.) I could see a few of the globe shaped fruit hanging behind
them. "All right. I think I see what you mean."

My heart stopped.

It was Fleur's voice!

Fleur was here!!!

My eyes searched frantically. I heard crashing as

I saw her naked body come rushing through foliage

toward me. "Danny! I'm here! I'm here! Damn it

but it's REAL!" she exclaimed.

She climbed up quickly beside me and I looped my

arm around a vine to hold me in place and embraced

her tightly. "You're here?" I practically whispered,

unable to believe I was touching her, here, in my
dream.

I shook myself. "Oh! Let me introduce you to my friend. This is

Bahoogie!" I turned to gesture to him.

He wasn't there.

"Bahoogie!" I called out. "It's all right. She's a friend. She's good.

Not predator!"

Nothing.

Then I heard a muffled sound.

"Come on," I told Fleur. "Maybe his arms are too full of fruit to fly!"

I said, smiling at the imagery.

Bahoogie hung upside down, his legs wraped together by

some white substance, his big abdomen/fanny hanging

down. Vulnerable. Exposed. And his penis was erect.

In front of him stood a very odd figure. She---yes, "she."

She had rather full breasts--was jerking on his erection and

making him groan loudly.

Bahoogie's tongue stuck out of his mouth, fat and swollen,
as if from some kind of allergic reaction. He wiggled hard

and a deep groan escaped him each time she stroked his

penis.

I grew afraid for him. Very afraid.

"What the hell?" whispered Fleur.

At the same time, I watched the creature--I'm pretty sure

it was a spider--spread her chilecera, exposing long black

fangs as she started to bring them down on either side of

his erection!

"NO!" I yelled, rushing in. (I definitely did NOT think about the consequences of my actions. I have been told in

the past that I'm sometimes a bit too impulsive...no duh.)

"Danny! NO!" yelled Fleur, reaching out to grab me and missing.

"Don't hurt my friend!" I ran toward the creature, ducking and shoving at her hard, idiot that I am.

The female spider creature easily side-stepped me, hissing loudly as she grabbed one of my arms and easily

tossed me sideways, over the branch to fall below. In one fleeting moment I realized that the area was literally

covered in an amazingly huge orb web. I also realized something else.

It's a loooooong way down.
