She tripped over the roots of the huge tree and landed flat on her face.  Not bothering to check for major injuries, she looked up at the big tree.  It was as beautiful as ever.

Birds rested on the delicate branches, flowers swayed in the wind, leaves dropped every time a bird landed on the branch, and the branches created a beautiful scenery of light.

She leaned against the tree and closed her eyes.  She had been doing the exact same thing for years.  No one bothered her, and no one bothered to bother her because they respected her.  She was the most respected woman in the village.

She whispered to the tree gently, "Hey there.  I'm back."

"I know, and I missed you," the tree replied.

"You know, I wish you could turn back to human, Riley."

"Yeah.  I want to play with you again."
