Alarm

Todd and Penny remain at the top of the pine tree. Todd is nestled under Penny's wing. He sleeps in comfort, relative comfort. Penny is roused out of her slumber by a faint noise. It doesn't wake Todd , but it is as clear as day to her. She knows she is needed. Her sense of duty causes her to forget about the sleeping man beneath her wing. As a result he wakes up, alarmed. "Morning already? " Penny ignores Todd and prepares for her take off. " You going somewhere? " Penny still does not respond. Instead she raises her mighty wings. "Well, can I come with you?" Penny squawks loudly in Todd's face. The noise nearly causes him to fall out of the tree. He rests on the branch and watches Penny fly away.
