Emily nodded good-bye to Xavier as he turned to head to the boy's cabin apparently. She smiled at the ground and began walking to Shannon's house and sat on the bottom step. Her mind was wandering off as she gazed at the land with a smile.

Esmeralda, having sneaked by them successfully, was almost at the point of congratulating herself when she stopped dead, staring at the doorstep of Shannon's house.
She cursed softly. How had Emily gotten from where she'd just been to the doorstep? More to the point, how was she going to slip by her when she was right in the doorway?
Well, it would be good practice, she thought.

(Nar gar zar, bump!)
Xavier finally gave up on his search. Frustrated and hungry, he went to the closest cabin he saw. He knocked on the door loudly, trying to look inside at the room. Did somebody inhabit it? He pondered this as he waited for an answer.
Kahlilia woke up from her nap when someone began to knock on her door. She grumbled and cursed and yet somehow managed to open the door looking at least a tiny bit happy. She saw a tall, slightly intimidating man staring down at her with piercing gray eyes and couldn't hold back her gasp. In fact, she barely heard him when he spoke to her in a low, deep voice. After asking him to repeat it, which he did, she nodded and quietly led him to the mess hall, biting and chewing on her bottom lip. The man strode beside her, looking straight ahead. She shrieked when he suddenly wrapped his arm around her waist, which he laughed at. She glared at him and was about to punch him, but decided not to. Along the way, the two passed Shannon's house, where she saw Esmeralda and Emily. "Hi you guys!" She said in a happy sounding voice, as much as she was dismayed to have a scary and apparently rude man standing next to her. She did not see how the man reacted to them, but she heard him make a low grumbling noise. She shrugged to herself and continued to walk, hoping that the man next to her had not tormented the two girls in any way.
When Xavier could finally see the mess hall, he slapped her behind as his own means of saying "Thank you" and walked away from her.
Kahlilia shrieked again when she was slapped, making the horrible man snicker again. When he wasn't looking, she gave him the finger and trotted out angrily.

Esmeralda cursed under her breath again when Kahlilia spotted her. Well, she thought as the girl and her companion left, since her cover was blown, she might as well just go on in and--
A shriek interrupted her. Frowning, she walked briskly past Emily with a quick "Hey" and hurried down towards where the sound had come from. As she crested the hill, she frowned down at Kahlilia and came to stand next to her. "What's the matter?" she asked.

MiserysStoryBookEnding ((Crap, sorry guys! Can someone give me a quick recap?)) (Well um. I think Emily is infront of Shannon's house chilling out, Roman is in the barn, Xavier is in the mess hall (fooodddd), and as I type Esmeralda is asking Kahlilia why she shrieked - Xavier smacked her tush, what a gentleman. - )
"... Huh? Oh, nothing. I'm sorry. That man - " Kahlilia pointed towards the mess hall, where Xavier was eating something. "Hes very rude, I guess I can just leave it at that." She was still biting her lip a little, a little shocked from Xavier's behavior towards her - and the other girls in the camp, as she would learn later. -
After a short hesitation, Kahlilia smiled apologetically at Esmeralda. "Thank you though."

Nanina sat in the corner of the kitchen, a bowl of sew cupped in her hands. She was facing the doorway, but no one would be able to see her where she sat unless they walked around the small table. Blowing the steam from ehr spoon, nanina took a careful bite.
Keith was saddling up B getting ready to head home. The day had seemed to fly by and soon they would be having free time. Shannon would more than likely be taking four of the campers into town.

Emily had gotten tired of sitting around and headed into the stables and saw Keith saddling up B. She smiled and grabbed a halter and lead. It was about time that Apollo had some exercise besides standing in his stall must've made him bored.

((OOC: No one sees Roman in the barn? *sad face*))
Esmeralda rolled her eyes. "Oh. Mr. Smooth? Yeah, he seemed that way to me, too." She gave the girl a friendly grin. "But he's pretty smart, you have to admit. Sign up for a horse camp, and nine times out of ten he'd have been the only male in a sea of women."
She glanced over her shoulder towards the barn, blinking a couple of times as the world went in and out of focus. "Speaking of which, I wonder where Roman's gotten to."
~
Roman stepped back, pleased with his work. Phoenix all but shone now, his black coat finally showing through all the dust and dirt and mud. However, the stallion's pawing warned him that the horse was reaching the edge of its patience. For now, he decided not to test the animal - he could always ride later. He had all summer.
Untying the horse's rope, he and Phoenix walked companionably back towards the paddock.

Kahlilia laughed at the nickname Esmeralda had given Xavier. "Yeah, thats true. Maybe he does have some brains." She looked back at the mess hall for a split second. No, she could'nt see Xavier. Phew.
"Roman?" She asked when she looked back, looking confused. He was probably the man she had seen earlier by Esmeralda. Maybe they were related? Yes, they looked very alike, as siblings would.

"I'm figuring. He didn't seem too scuzzy to me, but then I only talked to him peripherally," said Esmeralda cheerily. Then she blinked, realizing that Kahlilia had asked her a question. "Oh. Roman. He's my brother," she explained. "He's okay - a little overprotective, but it's sort of expected in my family that the older sibling takes care of the younger one." She shrugged, still smiling. "He takes it a bit far sometimes, but he means well."

Nanina rolled onto her stomach as she continued to eat her stew in the corner. She kept her eye on the door to the messhall as she absentmindedly stirred her food.
Keith flashed Emily a smile and finished saddling B. How are you today, Miss Emily? His voice was conversational as he spoke.

Emily returned the smile warmly and sighed.
" To tell you the truth I am in a state of depression" She replied tying up Apollo and leaning against the door.
At the moment she needed to tell someone and not keep it bottled. Her hane came up and brushed through her hair as she felt the wave of sadness hit her again.

Keith stepped over to Emily and looked down at her, making eye contact as he took his hat of and ran his hand through his hair. Well, tell me about it. Mayhp I can help.

" I found out my mother is in the hosipital due to the fact that her illness had become severe. There is a fifty-fifty percent chance that she will live." Emily replied tilting her head and gazing up at Keith with glazed eyes.
She could feel the tears coming up again and tried to fight them back. Yet Emily knew she couldn't fight them away for long.
