Taking the High Ground

I needed high ground to watch over the perimeter. The wooden chair beneath the window gave me my path. I gripped the rungs, hauled myself upward, and stepped onto the broad wooden sill. Outside, streetlights cut through the dark across Green Hills. Next to me sat a heavy cast-iron bookend. I drove one fist firmly into its side to test its anchor. It did not budge an inch. Satisfied, I planted my boots and began my watch over the quiet street.#SonicTheHedgehog #SonictheHedgehog #KnucklestheEchidna
