Roodi 28

Continuing story Flying Red

After Roodi had finished his story,
Roodi asked his mother if it was true what the nasty spider had said,
if he was a red firy monster, getting tears in his eyes...

His mother lifted him high up in the air,
and looked him straight in his eyes....

She said:
'You are the most beautiful delightful red firy bird of the whole universe'.!

One moment later Roodi's mother embraced him with everything in her, under her wings.
Holding him dear to her heart.
She was so happy to have her Roodi back!
She had been so afraid...where he was...not coming back...fearing...the worst.

Roodi was so happy, he was back home in her warm embrace...
When she held him for a long time in her arms,
Roodi told her all that had happened...
about the nasty scolding spider,
how he had snapped the spider...
how he had learned to fly...

Doddi was so proud on her flying Red.

Instantly Roodi's mother saw that the red blurr coming at her was her Roodi !

Surprised, full of relief, she opened her wings wide open,
so that Roodi flew right into her loving arms....!

Roodi flew as fast as he could fly,
within seconds he was near his home.
where he saw his mother on the look-out.

She was waiting & staring in the blue...
suddenly seeing a red blurr coming near

Roodi 24

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi noticed that his wings...could lift him in the air..
Would it be possible he could fly like he had seen his mother doing?

He tried to not only go up and down...
but also to go straight on, flapping his wings as fast as he could flap!

Roodi 23

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi could not believe his eyes.

To make sure,
he jumped up and down,
meanwhile flapping his wings, more than ten times...

Roodi 22

Continuing story Flying Red.

Hey what's that?
Roodi looked astonished at his wings...
which had grown a little more...

It was as if his wings had lifted him up...,
as he was jumping with surprise and relief.
He kept looking, wondering, at his new wings and
he flapped them some more times up and down.

Roodi 21

Continuing story Flying Red.

Seeing the the spider had tumbled & fallen.
Roodi jumped with surprise and relief in the air.

I did it! he cried out...
I did it!

Roodi 20

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi walked boldly towards the place the spider sat.
In a moment he saw the spider sitting,
still dangling on his thin line.

Roodi took a deep breath...and stepped forward more closer...
Inwardly saying...All or Nothing.

When the spider saw Roodi coming...
the spider said:..Hey look who's there...!
The firy red mo n...ss ..
but before he could finish his scolding
Roodi snapped the thin line apart
and said: seeing the spider shrinking...in total panic.
It is you who is the nasty black monster!

Roodi 19

Continuing story Flying Red.

Finally a watery sun came through and melted all the snow again.
Roodi warmed himself for a while in the warm sunrays,
thinking meanwhile what's up next....
Climbing the tree or going down, or...going back...
Both were all scary.

He decided to make a U-turn, to go back to his mother
and going back to face the spider again,
who was a black monster himself, he said under his breath, to get more courage.

Suddenly Roodi got a bright idea....What ifff....

Roodi 18

Continuing story Flying Red.

The snow became more and more.
Roodi was completely hidden under the blanket of snow.
Only his red tail peeked out.

In a way Roodi liked it to be hidden for a while, for no one to be seen.
It was kind of safe.
Though he was still hearing the scolding of the spider...
being a red monster!

Roodi 17

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi walked a little, till he reached the end of the branch.
Not knowing where to go next.
He wanted to go home, back to his mother,
but he didn't dare to go back, because of the nasty spider,
who nicknamed him red monster.

It started snowing...
only a little of his red feathers were showing through the white.

Roodi 16

Continuing story Flying Red.

After Roodi had rested enough, he stretched himself.
took a deep breath and continued his way.

Roodi 15

Continuing story Flying Red.

He crawled on the branch again
and rested for some time
because he was quite confused by all what happened.

Roodi 14

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi was so frightened by this nasty, grumpy, scolding, angry spider.
In his flight, Roodi had ran so fast,
that he nearly tumbled down,
and nearly fell off the branch he was running.
He could grasp himself just in time to one side of the branch.

Roodi 13

Continuing story Flying Red.

Roodi paniced with fear, because of the outburst of the spider-creature.
He did not know what to say or do.

Then the spider went on blurting out, scolding...screaming...
Ýou stupid red monster!
That's what you are; The most stupid red firy monster ever saw!
I will....... ...!
Roodi did not wait for what the spider wanted....
He ran away as fast as he could run.

Roodi 12

Continuing story Flying Red.

After Roodi had walked for a while all by himself,
he suddenly bumped in on a creature dangling on a thin line.

The creature reacted very disturbed, because he was busy taking a nap.
and started to scold and scream...
What manners are that!
can't you look out!
While he almost exploded by his anger.

After a while, on a monday morning,
Roodi's mother had gone out to collect some food for the day,

Roodi thought it might be a good idea to go out.
Exploring the outside all by himself,
to see what's going on some place else.
