Seika's lips pressed into a thin line. "If I seem like I'm gonna kill something while explaining, I want you to run and call either Konton or Frenka." She hissed a warning. "Oh yeah . . . I know what happened to them alright." She growled the beginning. "They left me . . . They left me as a BCR on that cold, deserted mountain to die with only a name. I hatched there in the tree and I climbed down and you know the story from there . . . I hate them and if I ever see them again . . ." She paused. "They'll be so sorry they ever came back." She said that last sentence in such a hard, cold, grim voice that it was hard to imagine that it came from something alive.

Danag's head turned, at the appearance of another fox. 'I know I was on tribelands,' she though to herself. 'At least the first fox I've met here seems nice.' Danag examined the white fox. "I'm sorry to intrude," Danag said, bowing her head politely, "I got slightly lost while hunting and couldn't find my way off the tribelands. I somehow ended up here."

Kekkon's tail swished calmly on the ground as he listened to her story that was so much like his own. "How do you know for sure that they just abandoned you?" he asked after she had finished. "Maybe something happened to them where they were being chased and they accidentally lost you. There are plenty of possibilities as to why they would have left."

Konton glanced around nervously. Hopefully Seika was too preoccupied to come and scold this fox too to the point where another argument is roused like the one with Shadow-san. Konton gave the fox an assuring nod. "I understand. It's not a problem, honestly." She replied. "Do you want to meet the rest of us, if I can remember where I left them?" She asked with a little chuckle. "You can stay here for the night if your a traveler, or whatever you want."

"In my last days in that confined space, I saw through that membrane of the BCR. They left me and just said 'Seika' in a voice so expressionless it wasn't even possible to pick up any emotion. I hatched not to long after that and made my way in life. But why would someone leave a BCR on a tree branch?"

"I can't say," Kekkon replied with a small shrug. "Maybe they wouldn't have been able to care for you so they tried not to become attached. And perhaps the up in a tree part was to keep you from being trampled on." A vague recollection of hearing lots of footsteps pas dangerously close to his BCR passed through Kekkon's mind and he shook his head. Pretty scary times back in that thing. So defenseless...

Seika gave him a skeptical look. "Right, two full-grown, healthy modifoxes not able to care. Likely," She scoffed. "And who said that I wouldn't fall out of the tree the instant I hatched. Least I knew where I was."

"Understood." Shasdow-San quickly said, turning back to Frenka. "So, uh, like I said, sorry about tat. So, can you tell me about your tribe here? I've kinda been alone all my lif. I hate being lonley. The feeling sucks."

"Okay..." Danag replied, shyly. Oddly, she hadn't met many foxes in her life. She didn't have anywhere special to go, either. "How big is this tribe?" She asked.

"Just a suggestion," Kekkon replied. "Well, I guess that's something we have in common then. My parents disappeared before I could see through the BCR though, so I don't remember what they even looked like. Just their voices."

"Hmmm, I guess," Seika shrugged. "That sucks." She added and looked down at him. Picking the last bits of meat off the skeleton of the deformed bunny, Seika stood up and looked out at the forest. "I guess we should go find something for the rest of them back at the cliffs . . ."
Konton looked up at the sky for a moment. "Well, there's me, Frenka, Tsune, Tanuki, Seika, Koana, Sheba, Sangre, Sanura, Kekkon, and Akuma. Eleven. Well, Akuma's not really bonded to the tribe like the rest of us, but you'll hear the story later." She chuckled. "Anyways, this way then." She encouraged with a wag of tail as a gesture to follow.
It amazed her on how her quiet nature could melt down this easily. Still, her discreet nature was still there. The ends of lips frowned. How long could she continue this way? She knew she wasn't this way at all. How long could she protect herself with this wall of lies? She sighed and pushed off that issue to the back of her head.
As they approached Frenka and Shadow-san once again, her frown twisted up into a smile, which was half-hearted. "Well, here's the Elder, Frenka and a newcomer like you, Shadow-san." She greeted.

'Eleven...' Danag thought as she followed Konton. She was slightly nervous. They came to the Elder, along with the other fox, fairly quickly. Danag examined the Elder in slight amazement. He was huge. But then, most Elders probably like that. "Hello..."

Kekkon nodded in agreement. By this point he had grown to about the size of a medium-sized dog. Feh, growing this fast definitely isn't the most pleasant of feelings, he thought vaguely to himself as he stood up and stretch, ready to catch some slightly larger prey. "If we are lucky we may come across a small family of deer," he commented as the moved along through the forest, hunting anew for more prey.

Konton looked at Danag and then back at Frenka and Shadow-san. She twitched at all the company and sighed. "Why don't you come meet the hunters?" She asked and led Danag through the trees. She picked up the scent of Seika and Kekkon and smiled weakly. "There, follow this scent and you'll end up finding them." She tried to sound cheerful. "Just I warn you, Seika can be a little . . . snappy. So sorry, but I have to go . . . Just say that 'Konton sent me here'. Sorry . . ." She instructed and then padded off without another word. Her pace was abnormally quick and her strides were long as she disappeared into the shadows of the forest.
Seika laughed in a dark tone. "There's plenty here. I'm pretty sure we'll come across something." She said and continued sniffing the air. A new scent was filtered through by her nose. She smirked. "We have company . . . A new vixen by the smell of it. And she's close." She explained and started running toward the new scent.

"It's okay," Danag said. She wandered off, following the scent of two different foxes. She sniffed the air again, making sure she was going the right way. It seemed as though they were quickly approuching.
