Shiny nut was shiny. Nibble nibble nibble CRUNCHHHH. And hard. Hmm. The squirrel paused in his biting of the orb and started banging it on the ground in an attempt to crack the thing open. Surely something so shiny had a tasty interior...

Jez was walking along minding her own business, innocent (if you'll believe she ever was that) and carefree (well, almost). Then she heard the crunch, and saw a flash of light. She stepped closer, and saw a squirrel trying to break open a shiny ball. She raised her eyebrows. What, did it think it was a nut or something?
Whatever, now Jez wanted that orb too.
"Hey little weird forest creature," she whispered, getting down on her hands and knees and shuffling closer to the squirrel and the orb. Her free hand dug around in her satchel, finally coming out clutching a small paper bag. Without taking her eyes fully off the squirrel, she took some almonds out of the bag and laid them out in her open palm. With a flick of her wrist, she threw them a little away from the squirrel, close but far enough away that he'd have to abandon the orb to get them.
She looked at it hopefully. Go get them, little guy! And let me have your shiny thing ...
