This is a small teaser for my upcoming fanfic. I will write it simotaneously with my other fanfics but this is shorter so it may be finished before my other ones. Hope ye likes it.

Bankrose jumped down from the supple oak limb and landed with a splash in the water. A squirrel looked up and walked across the mixed oak and elm boughs as easily as if he was walking on land. He peered into the river waters and looked long and hard. "Sight an otter?"

"No. I heard a splash."

"Did he steal anything?"

"No. But I haven’t checked the chestnut trees."

"This is out of hand. I wish what the elders said about peace was true."

"Aye, I’d rather be friends with an otter than kill one."

"Kill one?" the second squirrel asked.

"Aye. The council decided yesterday to kill any more otters caught trespassing."

Bankrose never heard the reply that the second squirrel made because the little otter kit was swimming speedily toward her father’s holt.
