Cara and Milly looked up to see a neon green figure looking down at them. The figure held his hand out, gesturing for the girls to shake his hand."Humans?" He asked, his voice welcoming yet unsure, "it has been a while since a human has fallen down, a decade, perhaps." Milly nodded. The man proceeded to invite them in.
