For most of my short life I never had known what I was exactly, still not completely sure. I have feathers and can fly, I have heard the term bird tossed around but still, I’m not sure. Living most of my life behind a strange, nearly invisible wall with other feathery, flying things, I had seen all kinds of strange other birds. Two legged, fur and featherless, giants with smooth, hole-like beaks would often walk around the area outside of my home, which I must say was a weird forest indeed.
These giants seemed to somehow trap part of the sun in little rounded and cylinder like objects that they hung on the solid sky; some birds lived in water, I tried to call out to a small one that was seemingly made of gold, but it just replied by swimming to the other side of the rounded wall.
Often the giants would walk wingless birds with exclusively fur and no feathers, their chirps far deeper and they walk with strings around them that the giants held. One day a giant took me to a new forest, put into a large metal… thing. My new man-slave opened up an even bigger bird that we seemed to ride inside of to my new home. The rest was history, everything was perfect, I got to play, bathe, and eat delicious food from my giant-slave, other giants when they come into my forest, make a repeated noise to get my slave’s attention, because of this I call him Dan
.
It was all nice… then a new bird came. HE PUT IT RIGHT IN MY CAGE! It seems to like to stay in one particular place, in front of a tiny plastic house set next to my FOOD CUP!
The feather-head mimics all of movements, everytime I try to put him in his place he has the nerve to do the same to me, I WAS HERE FIRST, IT IS MINE, THEMS IS THE RULES!
What is weird is when I screech at him to show my dominance, his beak moves but I only hear my voice, I don’t understand what game he is playing.
Took a long while before one day, Dan opened up my metal wall and I got to fly around my forest; perching on strange refined, flat trees, some had a weird type of leaves over it that when I tore off some white fluffy stuff came out!
Dan also keeps calling me things… for awhile it was Carrie, than it was Mary, now it's Frosty the cutest lil parakeet in da world… that’s been the name for a good thirty moons!

I was reading to my parakeet (Leliana) when I got this idea (also helped I was reading her Black Beauty) consider this just a bit of a draft. I would love to hear what you guys think!
