First steps toward the light

Tojima held up his arm to shield his eyes from the merciless sunlight that rained down apon him in the warm summer afternoon as he stood in a forest clearing. A shadow above him caught his attention. The flying creature swooped down quickly, coming directly for him. Tojima held out his arm, allowing the creature to land. The large, great horned owl picked at it's feathers as it rest on his arm. "Junko, spot anything?." Tojima asked. The owl turned it's head sharply, pointing north west as it "Who'd" loudly. Tojima nodded before heading in that direction with the owl resting on his shoulder.
