Gale the Griffon flapped her wings to slow down and gently touched the ground with her hind paws, before sitting down. She looked down, marveling the tiny landscape around her. But for people, her arrival was another experience entirely. Her giant wings had caused so strong winds that they threatened to make trees fall down or cars to drive off the road.

Drivers saw a giant shadow fall on them just before the huge, furry paws lands, shaking the road. They saw a enormous griffon to gently sit down in the middle of the road and had to break hard not to crash into her, although Gale would have probably just barely felt the impact of the tiny cars and truck.

She let out a small giggle when she saw the traffic stop and people stepping out from their vehicles to look at her.

“Hey, could you land somewhere else, you are blocking the road!” Some of them shouted at her, but for now Gale didn’t care.

“Oh, don’t worry, little ones. I am just resting here for a moment.” She said, looking at the tiny people, smaller than her talons.

“Well some of us are a bit hurry, so if you could just move!” She heard a shout and glanced down. What caught her eye wasn’t the little man shaking his fist a her but the truck he was driving. The man had opened the door and was looking at her angrily, standing half inside the cabin when he saw her giant claw coming down towards him.

“H-hey, what are you-” He yelled.

Gale licked her beak, she had seen correctly and was eyeing the tiny ice-cream truck. Her claw grabbed the tiny truck, and the driver managed to jump out of the cabin just in time when Gale’s claw lifted the truck off the ground. Metal bend and whined even if Gale had been careful as she lifted the truck. She licked her beak again and opened her mouth a little, slipping the entire truck in whole.

“Mmm…” She sighed pleased and the people on the ground could hear crushing noises as finally a loud gulp as the giant Griffon swallowed the remains of the truck and the ice-cream. “That was so delicious, do you have more?” She let out a small chuckled, looking at the truck driver.

“Hey, you have to pay for that, the truck and the cargo, you big bird!” He yelled, waving his arms.

“Oh, gladly!” Gale smiled and leaned down a bit, reaching down with her huge claw.

“W-wait, what are you now…” The man yelled but grunted as he was pinned between Gale’s thumb and forefinger, and felt his feet leaving the ground. So powerful had been the grasp that it took a moment to catch his breath and he found himself staring at Gale’s huge eye as she held him high from the ground.

“Can you show me where I can buy more?” She asked joyfully.

“S-sure, you can buy ice-cream from any store or supermarket, but how exactly are you going to buy… Gah!” He gasped when Gale spread her huge wings and left the ground.

“Not just ice-cream, silly, that truck was quite good too.” Gale chuckled as she flew towards nearby city, leaving the man in her talons wondering where he had gotten himself.
