Isabella nodded and smiled at pretty much everything she had just said before giving them the food and shifting into a leopard and running of through the woods with out saying anything.She returned a few moments later with the wires and fishing rods, she shifted back "No pay needed!" she said and then said "bye see you round!" before shifting into a leopard and running off into the forest boredly.She ended up running back into Synn and Taylor "Oh no not use two again!" she said in a joking voice before sitting on a branch and shifting back into her human form once more.

Arthes |Female|Rogue|Grizzly Bear|Open

Arthes just stared at the food. "That was... odd", she finally said, looking over at Winter. She picked up a rabbit the leopard had brought for them and inspected it. "Well it's good food. No point in wasting it. You want this rabbit?", she asked her pup, who barked and wagged her tail. Arthes handed it to her and then looked at the rest of the food. She gathered it in her arms and put it on a smooth rock. She then got some of the wire and wrapped it around Winter. She tied the food on her pup, then started to climb the ladder. "Winter you pup, come on up! I need the food", she yelled down, holding on to the ladder with one hand, her hair flowing in the slight breeze. Winter barked and started to climb her way up the ladder. Arthes helped her get up the branches, and lifted her up to the porch. Winter walked into the room while Arthes pulled herself up the rest of the way. She untied the food from Winter, and set it on the stone counter she had worked on for so long. "Perhaps we could make pemmican, like Natives used to", she said aloud. Winter barked and wagged her tail. Arthes laughed and carried her pup down the ladder again, picking up one of the fishing rods. She cringed as the handle hit a bruise she got the other day.

(So sorry for long posts!)

Kenton -- Panther -- Aerona, Angelia

A boy? Kenton almost snorted. He'd never acted like a child, despite looking like a rather cute one some time ago. He'd been a normal height once, with a mop of hair so untameable the hairdresser had nightmares. Blue eyes big on a round face....things were a lot different now. The cuteness had....evaporated.
I'm a fool, he thought. An idiot. Why can't I just talk to people normally? He knew the reason....but was he just making excuses for himself? It was easier to be mean and brooding than making an effort to be reasonable and approachable.
He couldn't decide if he wanted friends, or would rather push them away. Oh the conundrum. Kenton took a step back, a normal one for him, large for a normal person.
He blinked once, his equivalent of 'sorry', and turned around, returning to the moose. He grabbed it by the antlers again and started moving. All his emotions channelled from his hand, knuckles white and muscles pulsing as he dragged the creature with enhanced strength. Panther were, after all, formidable creatures. Not as strong as tigers, of course, but still impressive creatures. Kenton wondered how he would do against a tiger all of a sudden.

Lillian -- Horse -- Loki

Lillian scratched her head, intrigued. She brushed her hair from her face and scanned the area. Humans, hmm. She saw a fighting opportunity, and the thought was the first to immerge. Fortunately, rational thought kicked in and she decided not to be stupid and stay put. Silently she watched, calculated with surprising thoughtfulness. Most people wouldn't expect a person like her to actually think something through and make a wise decision.
She too was too curious to leave. "We shouldn't stay long, unless this is a serious problem. I'm getting chills," Lillian explained quietly. "I don't like this, but they aren't doing anything that merits a punch in the face. Which I will gladly do if things get out of hand, mind you."

The owl watched from above as the leopard lady left, but seeing her fake smile, one she tried to pass as genuine, she let out a soft sigh, thinking they might have been just a tad to harsh on Bella... Or a bit more than a tad, as she thought more about the brief conversation. Her ears rotated as she listened for any signs of prey that she could take down while traveling alongside Mister Buck, when she picked up the sounds of him speaking, once again to herself. She lowered her flight slightly, so she could hear him clearly, and when she did, he just happened to stop to check another trap, so she landed on a branch above him, watching his movements carefully. "If you do not mind, I would enjoy tagging along for your morning ritual. Being an owl, I can only catch small rodents, fish and reptiles, and that does not feed a family of three too well," she hooted quietly, her eyes drifting towards the earth floor.
True, Loki was also in charge of hunting, and bringing back food for her den, but they all, her entire remaining family, knew who took their job seriously, and who didn't. So, because of it, the owl was the one who had to bring home the majority of the family food, and on days when hunting was light, and bad luck followed her everywhere, she normally would not eat, letting the other two enjoy their meals while she watched, or sat at the entrance, deep in thought.

May half listened, have dazed through the conversation between the two chilling humans. She knew, considering what had already been said, that she should be listening to her, but...that didn't mean she necessarily had to. She picked up on a few bits and pieces of their conversation, mainly their low lying threats and their very odd 'conversational' chat. She had begun to completely fade from the conversation, seeing as how she was only a third wheel at the moment, when she felt chilling eyes on her, making a small shiver run across her spine, though, luckily, invisible to all watching. She slowly brought her eyes up to look at the slightly frightening, slightly more so confusing female, and blinked her own eyes, showing she was listening.
Hearing what she said, her brow furrowed, though she let out a low snort like growl. I though all munies were locked up in communities like ourselves?! How did this one escape? What makes her so different from everyone else?! All these questions ran through her head after the female had admitted to being a shifter, though she did have to agree with her on one point; there were hardly any normal 'humans' these days. She carefully eyed her over, thinking, examining, before slowly coming to a conclusion. "I speak with a Bald Eagle or a Wolf," she said carefully, her own eyes becoming slightly dark. She narrowed down to the two options by her speech and personality traits that she currently knew of at the moment.
She shifted her attention as Kenton suddenly returned towards the moose, and, sighing, she did too herself. She blinked at the stranger once again, saying, "Well, I imagine Ill be seeing you around," she said quietly, flicking her ears. As she leaned down to pick up her half of the moose, she shifted mid bend, grabbing her hind legs in her powerful jaws once again, latched on tight, and snorted as they began to make their way back.

I had just got the trap all set up when Snap, it went off again as a leopard came running in. She did not hit the trap or anything but hit a stick that ended up having the trap go off. I nearly got my hand out of the way in time before the thing when off. All I did was stay there breathing in an out as I calmed myself. Today was not a good day for me, it was the anniversary of my mother's death. Most people don't remember thing like that more for the fake it happens often, but still I remember, after all I was only 7 at the time when it happened. Only the night before has she told me of that story about this world, and then she was gone. So I was on edge today, and really just wanted to rip something apart but I had duties to do and so I held it in.

After a moment of being silent and staying there I looked back to the two females. "Hello again Isabella." I said to the leopard as she made herself at home on a branch. It appeared she had no idea what she did and well it was ok. I watched as she shifted to her human form and sat there. That was when I turned back to Taylor, "If you would like, after this I can help you catch something. Or I can help teach ya how to use a bow if you want." I said to her.

I watched the creatures, there was about four of them. They seemed to stumble a little, also seemed to attack each other if they got to close. Just something about them was too off, to be normal, even for a human. If I was any adult I would know right away that what I was looking at was actually a group of Flares that manged to make it all the way out here. My ears twitched as I heard the soft whisper of Lillian. "Somethings not right with them." I said to her as I kept watching them very closely. That was when she spoke again. I looked over to her this time, wondering if she thought these things were human. As I looked at her I got a very bad feeling.

Instantly I snapped my head back to look down at the four creature and see them staring right up at us. I even locked eyes with one of them. A cold chill ran down my spin as I jumped to my paws and was off, even with out a skipping a beat. I really did not mean to run and leave Lillian so suddenly, but I was a fox after all and instinct really did kick in.

Taylor's head lifted hearing the footfalls of a running four pawed figured, and as it neared she knew exactly who it was. She watched as Bella ran right over the trap that Synn was working on, and opened her mouth to caw a warning too late. Gasping, she quickly flew down towards the trapper, eyeing his hand with a tilted head as she landed on the ground. Hopping to investigate, staying as far away as possible from the trap, she sighed with relief, seeing he was alright. Cawing angrily, she transformed to human, a glare fixed upon the leopard. "You could have just lost a foot and made Synn loose his hand!" she said angrily, eyes scrunched as she glared.
Growling, she turned towards Synn and squatted, mumbling quietly, "You alright?" she could tell something was wrong by the look in his eyes, but what she could not be one hundred percent sure. She eyed his hand, before hearing his question, and she laughed quietly. She adjusted one of the sides of her shirt to reveal her belt, and to reveal a long bladed knife tucked within it. "I always carry something with me in case I do find an opportunity to help out the cave," she said, nodding her head, her smile fading slightly as she thought, though it reappeared when he spoke once more. "Oh, you don't have to do that for lil' ol' me," she said with a small smile, nodding her head softly.

Lillian -- horse -- Loki

Lillian growled and let Loki run off. She stood up in plain view of the person making eye-contact, taunting. "You want some?" She grinned, lifting a hand. "I'm game. Well, not really," she brushed her hair from her face again, ready to jump into action and run, or fight. Her eyes met readily.
(sorry it's short)

Kenton -- panther -- OPEN

Oh please, Kenton thought. He was done with this. The moose made it to the caves, where he left it. His mother stalked out and grabbed him by the hair.
"Kenton Patrick," she said in a growly voice, barely able to reach his head. "Why on Earth did you do something so dangerous as to hunt a moose?! It could have killed you! And leaving early? You're such a prick."
Kenton twisted free painfully and prowled passed her. "Going out," he said, needing the silence and to finish his journal entry. He vanished into the woods, leaving his mother shaking her head.
Kenton sulked in the tree tops, and pulled himself together. He sighed and relaxed and all the muscles in his body unravelled. His limbs dangled over the branches. What was wrong with him? He needed to sort himself out. Why was making friends so hard?
Maybe he would go on another hunt, just to get it out of his system.

Arthes Grizzly Bear☀Rogue☀Female☀Open

Arthes turned the rod over in her hands. It was finely crafted, something she had never seen before. Winter barked, disturbing her silence, and she turned to look at her dog. "Well, perhaps I won't scare everybody off now while fishing", she said to Winter, and Winter wagged her tail. Arthes set it down and walked over to her part of the rabbit. She lifted it to her mouth and took a bite, lost in her thoughts. Why did the girl help her? She didn't know her, and she was from the village. Arthes sturggled to think it over. She wasn't used to people helping her, or finding her at all. She sighed and took another bite of the rabbit.


Piper Chipmunk✩Community✩Female✩Open

Piper smiled at the sunlight. She hadn't meant to oversleep, she kinda just did. Humming, Piper got a small pouch and fastened it around her neck. She put on her backpack and headed out the door. Peanut was just sleeping on her shoulder. Piper trekked to the forest to check her snares. The first one, set up next to an oak tree and baited with nuts, was empty. "Nothing here", she said to nobody in paticular. She walked to her other one, which was quite nearby, and smiled. It had caught a large rabbit, that looked like it would feed her family well. Humming some more, Piper bent down to unfasten it. She took off her bag and put the rabbit inside. Peanut had woken up and was chattering on her shoulder, and Piper couldn't help but laugh. She looked over to see Kenton. "Hey Kenton!", she yelled, waving her arm and smiling.

[stormy tom]

Kenton -- panther -- Piper

Oh please no...he folded his arms resolutely over his chest and set his scowl. Kenton pressed himself closer against the tree branch. In all the forest, he had to choose somewhere near people....there was no escaping them. Maybe he should become a rouge and do whatever the heck he liked. Many rude things to reply came to mind, but he controlled himself and resorted to snorting and closing his eyes.
Whatever, he could block out human beings and nap quietly while unravelling his mind, no problem. He did an automatic file scan inside his head, and fished out a name: Piper. Great. At least it wasn't Lillian. She enjoyed picking on him. One day he was going to clobber her.
What did Piper want? She obviously knew little about him.....although everyone knew little about him. Even his own mother. Some things weren't meant to be shared, or maybe they were. He could never tell. Emotions like that were too confusing for him.
He did not wave back. Kenton hadn't waved to anybody. Ever.
Well, maybe once, to his sister at the airport.....

May had helped drag the moose carcass back with the male, and by the time they reached the caves she was barely breaking a sweat. Blinking her tiger green eyes, she sat at the den entrance, leaving the two members to speak, while she groomed her now messy coat. She was slightly disgusted with it's condition, having twigs and leaves, and, obviously, blood from her kill, and a few scratches she got on the way back.
She had just finished doing a basic grooming, and had begun to start her face when she witnessed Kenton storm out, and she blinked, her paw still hovering by her muzzle. Sighing quietly, she stood, and slowly walked to the mouth, peering in. Transforming, she knocked twice on the slate 'doorway', waiting for an answer. She hated doing this part when she hunted in pairs, which was normally /never/, but the few times she did she didn't appreciate having to do this. "Miss Kenton's Mother?" she called, not sure where she may have gone that quickly. She knew that the lady may not have known she had assisted in the hunt, and may not have known that she may have to share the kill with another.
