The Way of the Deer: Chapter 3: The Deer's Arrival

When Lila got home, she went to her room. She set her school bag down and plopped down on her bed face first. She rolled over, then put her hands behind her head. She closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them again. While she looked around the room, she briefly spotted a small box on her dresser. ‘What the-?’ Lila thought. She got up, went to her dresser, and picked up the box. She looked it over. ‘This wasn’t here before.’ Curious, she opened the box. There was a flash of light that was tan in color. Once the light faded, a small deer-like creature appeared. “Hello.” the creature said.
