It’s Off to Work We Go
“These guys again?” Lea complained. He was hiding behind a tree, or at least standing behind it, because basically nothing in the Dwarf Woodlands was big enough to actually hide him.
“Aw, they’re nice!” Ventus protested from his spot kneeling behind a bush, only half listening as he dug around in his backpack for a spare Ether. “What’s your deal with the dwarves anyway?”
“I’m always afraid I’m going to accidentally step on one of them or kick one halfway to the moon,” Lea said, making a face. “And they sing that creepy song! It always gets stuck in my head.”
“What song?” Ventus asked, face the picture of innocence.
“The song!” Lea said. “You know!” Ventus blinked at him blankly. “The…it goes like ‘Hi ho, hi hoooo…oh, you little jerk.” Lea broke off as Ventus burst into giggles.
“I can’t believe you actually started singing it,” Ventus snorted with laughter. Scowling, Lea shoved Ventus with his foot, tipping him over.
“Serve you right if I kicked you halfway to the moon,” Lea grumbled, looking over his shoulder at the woods sprawling out behind him. “And where the heck is Isa? Why do I have to suffer this indignity alone, huh?”
“I’m here,” Isa’s voice came from their left. He appeared a moment later, his usual deadpan expression somewhat ruined by the leaves stuck in his hair. “Have the small men started their disturbing song yet?”
“No, that was Lea,” Ventus explained, climbing back to his feet and dusting grass off his pants. Lea threw his hands up in exasperation. “What took you so long?”
“There was some sort of possessed tree,” Isa reported blandly. “It slapped my rear.”
“Uh….huh,” Lea said, while Ventus broke down laughing again. “I guess that’s how they say ‘hi ho’ here in the enchanted forest.”
