Let Sleeping Bears Lie

[Koda]

Koda looked at Kelila, as she comforted him, standing between him and the wolf up ahead. Koda looks around her legs, trying to get a glimpse of the wolf, the first one he'd ever seen.

"Wow, he's really cool, Kelila."

Koda says in awe. Kelila turns to the wolf and Kenai, then pads up to them, and Koda watches as she says something to the both of them. She gestures down to where Koda and Kanoa were sitting, and Koda figured that she was introducing them to the wolf. Koda waved his paw, not afraid anymore, but full of excitement.

[Kadzait]

Kadzait looks to Kelila with a warm smile, nodding as she anylizes him. She introduces herself to Kadzait, then begins to spout out many questions. Kadzait grins at her.


"I'm Kadzait."

He says, introducing himself to Kelila.

"And no, I wasn't hunting, just simply passing by. And that howl, was merely a 'hello' to the great spirits."

He smiles again as he walks with Kelila down to the river, chuckling at her comment on Kenai.

[Kenai]

He listens to the wolf's words quietly and carefully, giving him a chance to speak. Watching Kelila greet the wolf, he shifts on his paws, feeling slightly more at ease now knowing the wolf is alone. He senses something different about this wolf, yet he's not quite sure what it is. He shrugs it off, and offers a smile to him.

"Well met, Kadzait. You are welcome to join us if you like."

He picks up on Kelila's comment, and smirks, although taking it very lightly. He glances up at the northern lights before he turns to join the others

[Kadzait]

Kadzait grins and nods at Kenai as the three proceed toward the river where Kanoa and Koda sit. He hopes the two bears will accept him as well.

[Kelila]

Kelila looks over to Kadzait before introducing him to her little bear-ish family.

"Kona, Koda this here is Kadzait. He's going to join us, that is if her still wants to."

She looks over to him, and waits for his answer.

[Kadzait]

Kadzait looks toward Kanoa and Koda as Kelila introduces them. Then he looks to Kelila.


"So, I can really join you?"

He asks, eyes wide, a grin from ear to ear. It had been so long since he had been rejected from his pack, that his heart was full of joy at Kelila's offer. How he longed to be part of a group again. Even if it wasn't his own kind, he didnt' care. With bright eyes, he turns back to Kanoa and Koda.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my friends."

He says with a bow of his head.

[Koda]

"Hi, Kadzait!"

Koda exclaims, rushing over to the wolf with wide eyes.

"So you're gonna be part of our group? Ah, that's so cool!!"

Koda is so excited that he's jumping all about the place in front of Kadzait.

"Oh boy, you're gonna love it! Kenai, Kelila and Kanoa are the greatest! Kenai over there, he's my big brother, and he's the best big brother ever!! Where'd you come from? Why were you howling? Is that how wolves talk to each other? Can you show me how to do it? Can you do it again?"

Koda begins again his non-stop talkative manner, asking all the questions he can think of.

"I've heard that wolves can run really fast. Can you run really fast? I can run fast, even faster than Kenai. One time me and my friend Bucky had a race, and I ran so fast, I thought I was gonna start flying! The only way I could get myself to stop was by running up a tree and grabbing onto a branch!"

Koda is all hyped up now, and he waits excitedly for the wolf's answers.

[Kadzait]

Kadzait grins at Koda's non-stop jabbering, and hopping around.

"That's right, Koda. I'm going to be part of your group!"

Kadzait says, then smiles again at the thought of being accepted.

"And you're right about the howling, that is how us wolves contact each other. I was just howling to the Great Spirits. As for where I came from, lets just leave it at somewhere far from here."

Kadzait pauses uneasily, then shakes his head and smiles.

"And sure, I'll teach you how to howl if you want."

The wolf listens to Koda's tale of his fastest run. Kadzait smiles.

"I can run pretty fast, but from the sound of it, I bet you could beat me!"

Kadait sits down by the young bear cub and looks again at the Northern Lights.

[Kelila]

Seeing that Koda is quite taken with Kadzait, Kelila looks around and sees that Kenai has made himself rather comfortable by Kanoa. She walks sleeply over to him and drops her large fluffy body right beside him. She looked up into his eyes and give a slight smerk. Then in a sort of sleep-talking way she says...

"It seems that you and Koda have gained quite the family today."

She nuzzles closer to Kenai (if at all possible) and falls into a deep sleep, safe and sound with her man-bear

[Kanoa]

~OOC~: Gahhh..I'm so far behind..O.o...My exams are here, thats why i was lokced away from my computer, but im at my cousin's house today..:)Welcome Kadzait:)

[Kanoa]

Kanoa shook his head and He turned his head and saw Kadzait

"Hi Kadzait! Sorry for not greeting you earlier. I over-heard what you guys were talking about. It would be great for you to join."

After that, he smiled at Kadzait

[Kadzait]

Kadzait nods his head toward Kanoa.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Kanoa., thanks for accepting me!"

Kadzait lays down, looking at his new family.

"So, what do you guys like to do around here?"

Kadzait asks the bears.

[Kelila]

As Kadzait asks his question, Kelila began to dream...She seemed to be wrestling something, and begins to talk int her sleep.

"NO!.....stop.......please............mom................"

Breathing heavily, and paws thrusting furriously. Kelila awakes with a sudden shock and in panic. She looks around at the very unusual furry of friends, embaressed and ashamed Kelila stands up onto her large fluffy paws and struggles to get words out of her mouth.

"I...I......going to get.......something"

She then runs off down the river, she comes to a stop when she knows she out of the others sight and alone. Kelila sticks her head into the water to cool off, and lays down beside the water and watches a fish swim by as a single tear falls from the tip of her nose and into the water.

[Koda]

Koda grins as Kadzait asks his question.

"Aw, we do tons of stuff around here, we play games and--"

But before Koda can start talking everyone's ears off, Kelila starts shouting out in her sleep. Koda hops to his paws in surpise, as Kelila swipes her paws about. Koda thingys his head, wondering what kind of bad dream she might be having. Just then, Kelila jumps up and says she has to go get something, running off.

"Gee, I hope she's okay..."

Koda says with a worried look on his face. Being the caring cub he is, he wants to make sure his friend is okay.

"I'll be right back guys."

Koda says, then pads off in the direction Kelila had run to. He sees Kelila by the waters side, her face dripping wet, as though she had just stuck her head in it. Koda slowly walks over to Kelila's side, and softly speaks up.

"Kelila....are you okay?"

He asks with a worried expression.

[Kadzait]

Kadzait is startled by Kelila's sudden outburst, and the wolf's ears prick toward her direction. As Kelila runs off, with Koda following, Kadzait turns his green eyes toward Kenai.

"What's the matter with Kelila, Kenai?"

Kadzait asks the bear, concern in his eyes.
