Kagome hummed as she leaned against the trunk of a tree, it was nightfall, and everything was peaceful so far. She hadn't been able to contract anyone as of yet, but she knew she was safe where she was. Safe wiith the viperwolves.

Her soft humming echoed lightly through the forest, mostly everything was quiet so it was easy for it to travel. Kagome smiled as she felt more pressure lean against her, another one of the viperwolves pups' curled against her. The majority of the pack of viperwolves set out to hunt, or so she assumed. She had been at the viperwolves den for hours and none of them had eaten. She could only understand animals so much.

She knew that she would have to leave at daylight and try to find her way back to the others...they wouldn't leave without her...would they?

She wasn't entirely sure. She had only known them twenty-four hours, if not a little more. She didn't' know them well enough to know how loyal they were. That and she didn't know if she was the only one that was lost out here, from what she gathered when she met the others...she would say Jake would be one of the lost like herself.

Jake to her seemed like the type to jump into something more than think it over, and she was a pretty good judge in character.

Most of the time.

Kagome was jolted out of her thoughts when she smelt smoke. Furrowing her brow, Kagome gently maneuvered the pups so she could stand up. If she smelt smoke that could mean one of the others could be close by.

She gestured to one of the older viperwolves, "I am going to go investigate. I smelled something and I just want to make sure it isn't coming from one of my companions that I got separated with." She paused looking at the female viper, "Is that alright?"

The female viperwolf looked her over before turning to another female, then turning back to her giving her a slight nod. Smiling Kagome gave a nod in return, "I will be back when I can." With that said Kagome jogged off into the forest, letting her nose guide her to the smell the smoke came from.

Kagome walked as quietly as she could thru the forest, she wanted to make sure it was her companions she was meeting and not the Na'vi she had learned that inhabited Pandora. She needed to be careful, she didn't want to end up meeting the Na'vi along...that would probably end very badly.

From what she heard, the Na'vi hated humans, or as they called them Sky People. It was a weird name to give them, the humans, but she wasn't complaining. It was an interesting name, better than what they could have called them.

It only took her a couple minutes before she made it to a small clearing, she could hear the viper-wolves running around. Looking closer she saw something that relieved her. It was Jake! At least she now knew she wasn't the only one who got lost!

Before she could move another step, the viper-wolves attacked him. It seemed like they didn't like him very much, she smirked a bit and got ready to move towards him so the wolves would stop attacking. She didn't want the wolves hurt, she loved them already and they didn't deserve to be hurt because they were defending their home from intruders.

Kagome stopped when she saw a female from the Na'vi jump down in and save Jake. She used her bow to hit he viper-wolves out of the way, and ready to fire the arrow. Kagome moved as fast as she could and put her hand on the weapon and arrow making her look at her in surprise.

"Stop" Kagome whispered, and all movement in the clearing stopped. She could hear the whimpering of the viperwolves, some were hurt, but none of them were dead. Which was a good thing. Moving into the clearing Kagome clucked her tongue and the head viperwolf came forward.
