*Alexis' pov*
Thailand day 3

Today we get to hang out with Elephants. I've never been so excited my whole life. We get to the place we had to meet the elephants at and we get put with two elephants. I stick by Daniel's side and I could feel Corbyn's eyes on me the whole time.
"This is Men-Ya and this is Niena" the worker smiles at us
Daniel and I hang out with Men-Ya along with Zach and Jack while Corbyn, Jonah and Adalyn hang out with Niena. We start walking down to the river which was a long walk but half way we stop at a little water hole and the elephants spray themselves with the water. The worker continues to explain why they do it and gives ya each a bag of fruit to keep the elephants in a good mood. I place some rockmelon on her trunk and she puts it in her mouth. We get ahead of the other group and Men-Ya stops.
"She is waiting for her friend" the worker smiles placing another piece of fruit in Men-Ya's trunk
"It's so cute" I smile
Daniel chuckles and watches Zach and Jack muck around with the bags of fruit hitting each other like idiots.
We get to the river and the elephants go straight in. We all go in after them with buckets and we start to help put water all over the elephants. All the sudden a worker walks behind me and lifts me onto the elephant. Men-Ya stands up and starts to walk around in the water that only reached her underbelly.
"DANIEL" I squeal and the group continues to laugh
"It's fine Lex" he chuckles
"Stand up!" The worker yells and I stand up on her back shakily
Men-Ya starts to get further into the water and I decide to jump off. I backflip off her landing in the deep water and then I swim to where I can stand. Men-Ya walks over and wraps her trunk around me as a canoe goes by. All the sudden she runs at the canoe and the people in it scream and raise their arms trying to calm the elephant.
"MEN-YA!" I yell and run forward as she continues to throw water at the people in the canoe
The workers try to calm her and my group starts backing out of the water. I step in front of her and here everyone yelling for me to get out of the way.
"Men-Ya calm!" I yell placing a hand on her trunk and push her back lightly
She wraps her trunk around me and lifts me up onto her back. Everyone watches in shock and it gives the canoe people time to paddle away. Men-Ya walks out of the water and kneels down letting me slide off. She wraps her trunk around me protectively and hold me to her side.
"She has imprinted" the worker whispers
"Imprinted?" Daniel frowns
"She is now the protector of Alexis" Corbyn steps forward and Men-Ya lets out a low growl
"Calm girl" I laugh and rub her side
She unwraps her trunk but grabs my hand tightly. I start walking and she follows close behind. We get back to the area and she lets me go running towards the food. The workers pull me towards a little shack and one disappears into it coming back out with a necklace. The pendent was clear but had a little bunch of black in it.
"We have waited to give this to someone. This is a lock of Men-Ya's hair. Someone already has Niena's and now you must have Men-Ya's" they hand me the necklace and I look at it in shock
"She will protect from now on" the worker smiles
I walk towards Men-Ya and she looks at me and then between her legs. A little elephant calf runs out and tries to eat some of the food. I kneel down and the calf runs to me diving into my legs. I fall down and the calf lies on top of me. I laugh and the workers watch in shock.
"Keena never does that" they all gasp
Men-Ya makes a low noise and Keena runs back to her. Daniel helps me up and I walk to Men-Ya.
"See ya big girl, look after the little one" I smile rubbing in between her eyes and she places her forehead on mine.
I step away and she goes back to eating and the workers wave.
"Holy shit" Jonah stares at me in shock
"I can't even think straight now" I let out a little laugh
We sit in the car talking about the day while I look at the necklace in my hands. I pull out my phone and find a photo from me saying goodbye to Men-Ya. I post it and smile at the comments.
