Catching Dragonflies
"C'mon girls! Keep up!" Temp shouted at the two ladies who seemed incredibly far away...
"Ugh! Do you
know what it's walking through the forest in heels!?" Penelope shouted back.
"Yeah! You're going too fast anyways Temp!" Lulubell Whined.
Temp sighed. "Okay I'll wait!" She chuckled and said under her breath.
"Slowpokes"
Finally the two girls caught up with her.
"Why do you want to be in the forest anyways? We could be shopping in my town right now. I heard Gracie's new season is in today." Penelope asked as they started walking again, all together this time.
"Or we could get some food in mine!" Lulubell rubbed her stomach "I'm kinda hungry..."
"
Or we could got to the beach, where there are a ton of cute boys..." Penelope added again, with a dreamy look on her face.
"Penny, we just came from the beach! Look! I caught this football fish, remember? And you caught that Barred Knifejaw and I guess you decide to make into a uhhh... Purse?"
"Isn't fabulous? I'm starting a new fashion trend" Penelope said proudly as she flipped her brown locks.
Temp rolled her eyes "
Anyways, I wanted to catch some dragonflies and add it too my collection, they're only out during this time."
"I love dragonflies!" Lulubell said, just a bit too loud. "I'd love to help catch some for you! C'mon Penny! Let's see who can catch the most!" Lulubell took off running, determined to catch a dragonfly for her friend.
Temp and Penelope watched as she excitedly ran through the forest.
"... And she says
I'm too fast ..." Temp shook her head in disbelief and cracked a smile.
Penelope gave Temp a smirk
"I'll help you, but after we go shopping and
you have to help
me find a new outfit"
Temp laughed "No problem! Now lets go get Lulu!"
Eventually they caught up to the small redhead as she was crouching down looking at a flower that had a small yellow striped dragonfly perched upon it.
"Shhh!" Lulubell shushed as they approached
"Look, I found one." She said in her "quiet" voice.
"I believe that's a Darner Dragonfly" Temp whispered back looking through her encyclopedia.
"It's absolutely gorgeous... It'd make an amazing hairpin." Penelope said in awe.
Temp shook her head and swiftly got out her net and caught the dragonfly.
"Awww! I wanted to catch it!" Lulubell whined
"But you didn't bring any of your supplies Lulu!" Penelope said laughing at her pouty face.
Lulubell smiled big "Well! I always got my hands!"
Temp laughed as well and promised her that she could try with the next one.
"Thank you for helping me! See this wasn't so bad, right...?"
All of a sudden she spotted a huge dragonfly flying above them, the two other girls seemed too as well.
"WOAH! Look at that one! It's GINORMOUS!" Lulubell exclaimed, jumping up and down trying to catch it.
Penelope tipped her sunglasses to get a better look "...
Wooow"
"I wonder what that one's called" Temp asked inquisitive.

Lulubell tried her hardest to catch it with her hands, but the big dragonfly was too fast and flew out of her grasp.
"Here! Use my net!" Temp shouted throwing it to her.
Lulubell caught the net and chased after the large insect.
"Get it Lulu!" Penelope shouted after her.
After a few missed tries Lulubell finally was able to catch it!
"Woohoo! I did it!" She put it in her pocket so it wouldn't escape.
"Good job Lulu!" Temp cheered as she hugged the girl. "The encyclopedia says it's called a Giant Petaltail Dragonfly!"
The redhead smiled brightly. "Let's go get some more!"
After hours of successfully catching dragonflies the three girls made their way out of the forest.
"Thank you guys so much! I couldn't have done it without you!" Temp said smiling to both of the ladies beside her.
"Your welcome, I think I found some great ideas for some new trends." Penny replied happily. "... But next time we choose hot boys and shopping trips." She added in her sassy voice.
"I had a ton of fun! But before we do anything else can we stop at my town and get some food? I'm craving hotdogs!" Lulubell said, putting on a puppy dog face
Temp laughed and smiled widely "Okay! Next stop HotDoggy Town!"
