�Just great, Eques. Got yourself lost again, didn�t ya?�

Of course, the boy was talking to himself. Of course, the funnier thing was that, to anyone watching, it was no wonder he couln�t find out where he was going; he was wandering around in circles that were plain to just about everyone but him. Oblivios to this fact, he kept walking and walking until�

CRACK!

Looking around wildly, he looked downward. His eyes widened as he saw the shell of a firelizard egg.

�AW SHARDS! I STEPPED ON A�oh, whew. It�s only half a�EGG?�

He knelt down by the shell surprised. Apparently, an egg had already hatched� but there was no mother flit to be seen.

�Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooo?� He called, cupping his hands to his mouth. �Any mother flits around here?�

People passing probably stared, but no mother was to be found.

�I guess not�� he said, looking around. �Hm�� He looked around the egg, and found a few more�nonhatched this time. �Oooooo� lookit! Pretty eggs!� He thought. �Maybe I should take them home before someone eats them� or whatever it is that happens to eggs when they�re left out��

Carefully, he picked up a small and a medium� but no sooner had he picked them up than they started rocking.

�AHH!� He cried, as a little green burst from the smaller of the two eggs. She cried to him hungrily, eyes swirling red. �Uhh� food, food, food� where do I keep food�� He stuffed his hand into his pocket�and dropped the rocking medium.

�AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!� He yelled again. Everyone around was probably staring. He didn�t really know, he wasn�t looking. However, just as the medium hit the ground�it burst open into a blue fire lizard. �Phew.� He said, and then got nipped on the hand by the green.

�Oops.� He said, placing the green on the ground next to the blue. THEN he dug his hands into his pockets. �Um� don�t ask why, but� want some meatballs? Last night�s dinner��

He placed the meat next to the flits�who launched themselves at them hungrily. �Wow, wow! Stop it! You can eat them, but not each other!�

After a few moments, the flits were done. �That was fast�� The flits both wobbled over to him, and laid down, sleepy. The green yawned. However, both seemed to be waiting for him to say something. �Um.. goodnight� what�re your names?� They just blinked at him. �Oh! Right, yeah� babies�� He thought for a moment. �Hm�� As he watched, the green started to drift into sleep, while her brother looked as active as ever. �Hm. Opposites. Yin and Yang! Not that you�re evil,� he told the blue, �but� you came second, and not before Yin I guess� yeah��

After the naming, Yin yawned, and fell asleep. Yang jumped around a bit, but soon followed suit.

Eques scooped them up, and walked away. Now� if only he could find his way back�

Cirlcle� circle� circle�
