Seasonal: Pumpkin Spiced Submission #1

The leaves rustled as a gentle breeze rolled through the forest. Shades of greens had softened into dim yellows and oranges. Even the air itself had a different smell to it. Helian took in the sights and sounds of this autumnal landscape. While most people found these sights pleasant, it was one of the worst times for the lone hunter. Fall season meant that wild animals were few and far between. On top of that, the ever present stillness of the forest made stealth much easier for the prey and twice as hard for the hunter. Most woodland animals blended into the environment very effectively. And the crunch of fallen leaves gave away the hunters location every time he approached. He was certainly skilled, but the forest creatures lived this life of survival every day. It had been a few hours and the hunter had only seen 2 rabbits. Both had fled long before he could get into position to deliver a swift death. With a heavy sigh, he resigned himself to a fruitless day and started making his way into the city. Sure, professionally he hated what these changes meant. It would only get worse with winter following suite. But he had to admit that aesthetically it was simply beautiful. As he made his way through the forest he walked slowly to admire the scenery. A serene peace washed over him. It was only a 30 minute trek back to the city where he made his way towards a large black/brown building. The large circular green logo adorned the top of the building making it unquestionable that this was the place. He entered and was surprised to see a rather short line. After 10 minutes of waiting, he made it to the front of the line and meekly asked "One husz shawl frappuccino please. Extra pumpkin spice".
