The depression saving incident

Titus soared through the sky to take care of the rain clouds that were cluttered about from his sorrow. As soon as he finished up, he made a landing in the nearby woods to rest his wings. He hung from a tree upside-down as his species was notorious for doing, and soon closed his eyes.
Chop, chop, chop.
Titus stirred for a moment before the unpleasant croak of a tree collapsing startled him awake. He swung himself around the branch he was previously perched on, and clung to it upright.
The sound intrigued him, so he flapped off to investigate what could have possibly been going on. As he drew closer, the echoing of broken sobs filled the air.
He made his landing in front of a tall, slender character known as Jacques. He looked like he was a sentient shadow, broken apart from the person he cast himself from, but of course Titus was not going to make this direct comparison verbally.
The noise from Titus's wings startled Jacques, and he whirled around with surprise painted on his face.
Titus spoke softly to the mysterious being in front of him.
"I am Titus. I came to investigate the noise of what sounded like a tree being cut down." 
Silence filled the forest as the shadow creature studied the flying fox in front of him, considering a response that sounded reasonable to the given statement. 
Jacques begun to speak. "Yes, that was me you heard." He continued, "When I am lonely and sad, I go into these woods." 
Titus watched in suspense.
"I vent out my frustrations by cutting down these trees."
Titus's face of suspense fell into a frown.
"Cutting down trees is destroying the environment for many other animals," Titus argued.
"The trees are my friends, too," Jacques defended, raising his voice. "I release them from their underground chains and I take them with me." 
Titus had to take a step back from the situation and analyze it. 
If he wasn't careful, Jacques could act out in frustration and hurt everyone around him.
Titus remembered that he could relate somewhat, so he started with that.
"I am a spirit that was trapped inside of this body during the eye of a storm." He spoke softly, relaxing his position so he did not appear threatening. "And now my emotions are influenced by the weather, and if I'm not careful, things become dangerous quickly."
Titus paused his speech to let Jacques think for a moment.
"I understand how it feels to be lonely. I've been on my lonesome for the longest time after the aforementioned occurred."
Jacques looked at Titus with a teary-eyed expression. He didn't quite understand how it felt to be heard in person until now. 
For the longest time, the creaking of trees being cut was what he deemed as the world letting him vent.
"I'm sorry you're going through this situation," Titus concluded, gently approaching the sorrow-stricken friend in front of him. 
"We may befriend one another so that you have someone to talk so you don't continue to hurt our environment," Titus suggested.
Jacques nodded in compliance to the idea that was proposed.
"Now, what do you say we start by composing better habits?" 
Titus led his new-found friend from the woods and from there, they embarked on a new journey!
(The end :D)
