River was enjoying the moonlight and stars and wind and quite. People were so noisy, even when they weren't talking. She asked Chris to bring her here under that pretense, and it was a true enough one. In reality, she wasn't sure why she wanted to come out here. She just had a feeling that she and Chris needed to be here around this time. So, she waited until her hunch revealed itself; wasn't the first time.
Chris also seemed to enjoy the quite, too. He didn't really want or need to talk. He was good company.
So she waited patiently for about an hour when she heard it.
"Chris" She spoke low. "Heads up and heads down. The stars are falling out of the sky and we must be careful." Just then, a huge thorn-dart whizzed past River and stuck several inches into a nearby tree.
