David landed abruptly on the claw tips of Nick's fingers and slid down into the palm pad of his hand which was now full of blue berries.
"That's enough, Nick" said Becky.
He felt a wave of vertigo as the cub stood up. The ride was rather bumpy and Nick lost a few berries as he walked. When they arrived hen to their camp (which was really a tent made of an old cloth) they crawled in through the door and sat crossed legged on the grass floor. A huge furry face loomed into view. David didn't think he cold see him since David was buried under some blue berries. What cloths he had been wearing were already stained blue from the juice as was his naked upper body.
The other hand/paw came into view, It passed David and descended. The enormous fingers poked and prodded at the berries until David saw it rise upward with a berry grasped between thumb and forefinger. He watched as the cub placed it in his mouth and hungrily ate it.
The hand descended again this time it picked up a berry very close to David. It suffered the same fate as the first one. David got to thinking, how would Nick react if he found him? What if he freaked out? A worst thought came to mind, what if he doesn't notice? What if he ate the human simply because he wasn't paying any attention?
He didn't like the idea of that happening. He had to get out of his palm. And when Nick picked up the berry that was just on top of him, David knew he had to do something soon.
