"You know, I don't need to be lead back, though. I can find my own way back. Besides, I'm a little bit worried about how Nadia and Roxy will react if they see you with me. They're rather protective." Abby said.

Tangath shrugged. "Eh, let them see me." He said, walking with her to her cabin. "I'm sure I can tell them they have nothing to worry about."

Abby sighed. "You obviously don't know them like I do. They can be as bad as overprotective parents, or worse. Convincing them you're a nice guy will prove to be a challenge."

Nadia and Roxanne were still unpacking their things. They were nearly done, and were mostly just setting up the cabin the way they like it. They noticed Abby wasn't there, and it worried them. However, for the moment, they just assumed that she went exploring around the camp. They figured she would be okay for now and would return soon. They just wouldn't expect her to be with anyone.

"Eh, I'm persistent." He says, laughing. "As for the overprotective-ness, eh, I can handle it. Plus, if they don't believe me, you can always back me up." I joke. "Plus, I like challenges." I say, a smirk on my face.

Abby smiles a bit. "Well, there's sort of more to it than that. It's kind of hard to explain..." She muttered, not sure of how to word it.

Suddenly, Roxanne's keen senses picked up on something. A strong tuna smell, and she could hear voices outside. She recognized Abby immediately. "Nadia, she's back!" She called to her friend.

"Finally! Come on, Red!" Nadia called back. She headed out of hr bedroom and met up with Roxanne in the hallway. "Oh, yeah, I can smell the tuna from here."

"She better not have had too much fun without us, or else I'm going to be very upset."

"I don't care about that. I just hope she didn't run into any trouble."

"I'm sure she's fine, Nadia. You worry too much."

She scoffed. "Like you worry any less."

The two of them approached the door. They didn't even wait for Abby to approach the cabin. They just immediately opened the door and headed out to her.

"Where have you been?" Roxy asked, as if scolding her. "You know better than to just disappear like that and run off on your own. You should have taken me with you, I wanted to explore the camp, too!"

"Roxy, I was going to ask you to tag along, but you didn't even let me finish my sentence."

"Who is that?" Nadia snarled, pointing to Tangath. And why did he copy my outfit? She thought.

Tangath turned to look at the two ladies coming out of the cabin. "My name's Tangth, my lady." He said, bowing. "And I was just showing her around the camo nothing to worry about." He said smiling.

Ugh, I hate the fake gentleman type. But of course Abby will fall for his tricks. She's so naive. I swear, if he hurts her.... Roxanne thought. Her hands balled into fists, but she stopped herself from growling. However, she still narrowed her gaze on him with a stern look.

Nadia folded her arms and glared at Tangath. "I'm Nadia, a hunter, and Abby's older sister." She stated firmly, as if a warning.

"And I'm Roxanne, a scout, and her best friend. I also have perfect aim with a bow." She added, hands on her hips now.

Abby sighed and lowered her head with a slight frown. Do they always have to do this? I mean, really, I can take care of myself. Besides, it's not like he's going to even do anything. I really wish they wouldn't be so difficult. They make it almost impossible for me to make any friends.

Tangath looked at Roxanne clenching her fists. Dang he thought to himself. She's really overprotective of her best friend. He clears his throat. "Um," he said "I may just say that I managed to get the warriors to back off of her after one grabbed her tail while reac-" Tangath stopped himself short. ****. he thought to himself Now they knew what happened at the warrior's cabin.

"WHAT?!" Nadia roared. "Where's the warriors cabin?! I'll set things straight right now!" She growled as she walked off. Of course, without knowing the layout of the camp, she was going in the wrong direction. She was actually heading towards the scout cabin instead.

Roxanne, however, didn't chase after Nadia. She folded her arms and stayed put, watching Tangath carefully. Nadia doesn't need my help to beat up a few warriors. So I better keep an eye on this guy. I just wish I hadn't left my bow in my bedroom.

Abby sighed and started heading inside the cabin. Goodbye camp. You will be missed. It was fun... While it lasted. At least we're not setting a record this time, though. But I still didn't even unpack my things.

"Where are you going?"

"To go get my things, Roxy. You know the routine by now. It's only a matter of time until the leader throws us all out for what Nadia is about to do. I'm just getting prepared for it." She replied.

Tangath looked after Abby, then towards the direction of where Nadia went. "I'm gonna make sure she doesn't get you kicked out Abby!" I say, running after Nadia.

Abby's eyes widened and she whirled around. "Wait!" She cried out, but he had already run off. "Oh, no, he'll probably just make things worse..." She muttered.

Roxanne gave her a sympathetic look. "You just go inside. I'll go after them. I know how to deal with Nadia."

"Just don't aggravate her further. You have a habit of pushing her buttons."

"I know, I know. But ticking her off isn't the only thing I can do. At least I know her better than that guy. He won't have any idea what to do. Anyway, I better catch up to them." She said. Then Roxanne shifted into the form of a common red fox. She then ran off after Nadia and Tangath.

Nadia arrived at the scout cabin and immediately kicked down the door. It didn't occur to her that was in the wrong place, even as a ball was thrown at her. She caught it easily. "So you want to play? Then let's play ball!" She growled as she threw the ball. She threw it hard at someone's head, and would have easily knocked them out if they hadn't ducked in time.

Rayan looked at Matt. "A, I did try to get him in the arm. The shoulder is just more stable. B, the shoulder isn't deadly. Just close to a deadly spot. There's a difference. Also, we're hear. She calmy looked at the sleeping were. Hopefully he's not as desteuctive as earlier.

"So you want to play? Then let's play ball!" She growled as she threw the ball. She threw it hard at someone's head, and would have easily knocked them out if they hadn't ducked in time.

He arrived a minute after Nadia walked into the cabin. "Nadia!" He yelled at the were. "You're in the wrong place!" He yells, seeing her holding one of the scouts up by there shirt, ready to toss them into the wall. "This is the scout cabin!"

"What the heck happened?" Lucy asked as she opened the door to the healer's cabin and rushed out to greet them.
"No time to explain now, just get the tools! Rayan, help me get the bear inside. We'll have to put him on the table in there so I can work on him." Matt said. Lucy hurried off to grab tools and things.

ooc: Nadia wasn't actually doing that at the end of my post, but it's something she would do, so it's fine.

Nadia paused, looking at the fearful scout she was holding. "Oh." She muttered. "Whoops. Wrong place. Sorry about that." She said as she dropped the scout. She then turned to leave, and pushed Tangath out of the way as she headed out. When she stepped out of the cabin, Roxanne ran up to her and shifted to her human form. "What are you doing here, Red?"

"Stopping you. Abby doesn't want to get kicked out of this camp. It will upset her. You don't want to upset Abby, do you?" Roxanne questioned, knowing that trick would work.

Nadia sighed and lowered her head. "Well.... No.... Of course not...." She muttered.

((Eh, I figured the same thing, so..))

Tangath got up. "Man," he said, rubbing his shoulder "Abby was right when she said that you were strong. Please, just leave the warriors alone. I don't want Abby to leave." I say, pleading with Nadia.

Rayan continued to lift the man's feet, and brought him into the infurmary with Matt. She then patted the slu.bering werebear's side. She stepped right out the door so she wadn't in the way.

ooc: Yeah, once you get to know Nadia, her actions are pretty easy to predict.

Matt and Lucy went to work on the werebear. The procedure went as usual, getting out any piece of weaponry or poison, cleaning the wound and patching it up, supplying pain killers, etc.

Nadia glanced back over her shoulder at Tangath. She then glanced back at Roxanne before turning to face him fully. She snarled and got right in his face. "I got a better idea. You know your way around here, take me to the warriors cabin. As a hunter, I should introduce myself. If they're smart, they'll leave my sister alone. If not, they'll find out why they should." She growled.

"You should do as she says." Roxanne told him. "A warning or threat is as peaceful as she's going to get. It doesn't mean she'll go ballistic, although it's a good chance, but she's going to set them straight with or without your help. But don't worry, I'll tag along to make sure she doesn't go on a rampage."

He nodded "Follow me." He said, getting up and walking towards the warriors' cabin, worried that Nadia will practically destroy the cabin.

Nadia and Roxanne followed him to the warriors cabin. "You know, Red, you don't have to tag along. I can handle this myself." She whispered to her.

"Of course I do, Nadia. If I don't, you'll start beating people up. I'm here to make sure you don't go crazy."

Nadia scoffed. "That's funny, considering you're the one that makes me crazy most of the time."

"Oh, yeah, like that's very hard to do. You have a short temper, Nadia. Anything sets you off."

Nadia growled and balled her hands into fists. "Watch it, Red, or you'll be first on my list to attack."

Roxanne chuckled. "I should always be first on your list. You haven't thrown a blow yet that I can't avoid." She grinned.

Tangath stopped. "Here we are." He said, opening the door for the two ladies to walk through. Man, he thought I hope they don't go crazy in here.

Nadia huffed and walked inside. Roxanne walked in behind her. Upon entering, Nadia let out a mild roar to get everyone's attention. Roxanne stood next to her, with her arms folded.

"Listen up!" Nadia roared. "You all remember a certain brunette werecat that was in here? Well, I know what happened here. I'm Nadia, her older sister, and a hunter. This is Roxanne, a scout, her best friend, and an excellent archer. If any of you try a stunt like that again, you'll be answering to us. Leave my sister alone, or you'll find out what will happen to you if you don't. Any questions?" She growled.

The werewolf that had grabbed Abby's tail looked up. He started running out the back door.

"Hey!" Tangath yelled out after the werewolf. "Should I go get him?" He asked the two girls.

"Hey, you!" Nadia growled, already running after the werewolf. "Get back here! I'll pound you flat for touching my sister!"

Roxanne sighed and rolled her eyes. "Well, that was a world record of about two seconds. At least she's only after one of them." She muttered. Roxy wasn't properly prepared for battle, and didn't feel like trying to stop Nadia from beating up the werewolf. "Oh well, guess I better do something." She sighed again. She then shifted to her fox form and ran after them. "Nadia, wait!"

Tangath sighed. "I'll go another route." I say, turning into my jackal form, and running out the front door me around the back of the building, down the road I knew the werewolf would take, already level with Nadia.

"Nadia, stop! We'll be in so much trouble if you attack him!" Roxanne yelled as she chased after them in her fox form.

Nadia had shifted into the form of a Siberian tiger and continued chasing after the werewolf. "You are so dead!" She roared, hunting him down like prey. She was ignoring her surroundings at the moment, only interested in taking down that werewolf. She didn't notice Tangath and wasn't paying attention to Roxanne.

Tangath looked at Nadia. "Stop!" He yelled "Or I'll have to make you!" He yells, ready to tackle Nadoa to the ground.

"Oh, yeah, like that'll work." Roxanne scoffed. "Let's see, how should I stop her..." She muttered to herself.

Suddenly, a white cat darted out in front of them, and Nadia came to a dead stop. Roxanne stopped as well, bumping into Nadia from behind. Well, that works. At least she stopped. She thought.

"Abby, what are you doing here?" Nadia asked her sister. The white cat stood her ground and gave her sister a stern look.

"Nadia, just let it go. It isn't worth getting kicked out of camp. I'd like to stay in one place for once, instead of traveling all over. I'd like to have a camp to call home, wouldn't you?" She smiled.

Nadia sighed and then smiled a bit. "Yeah, that sounds nice."

Roxanne sighed in relief. "Great." She said, coming up beside Nadia. "Well, now that that's settled, what should we do now? I do have some pranks I could try out." She smirked.

"No! Geez! What are am I going to do with you two?!" Abby laughed.

Tangath stopped, relieved that he wouldn't have to get maimed by Nadia. "Just in the nick of time Abby." He said, turning back into his human form. He turned to look at the two girls. "Now, will you please leave me alone?" He asks in a joking manner.

The three ladies shifted back to their human forms. Nadia and Roxanne shared a glance before turning to Tangath.

"Nah." They said at the same time.

"As long as you're hanging out with Abby, we're keeping a close eye on you. A VERY close eye." Nadia said firmly, narrowing her gaze on him.

"Plus, sharp and pointy objects, pranks, traps, and various other tricks." Roxanne added with an almost devilish grin.

Abby sighed and shook her head. "Great..." She muttered. "I get to stay here, but you two will scare off all of my new friends."

Roxanne snickered and put an arm around her shoulders. "Ah, but that is our job, Abby. We may be crazy, but we keep you safe. You can complain all you want, but you know you love us."

Tangath sighed. "Well, can we at least get an hour away form you guys?" He asked, practically begging. "Or at least keep your distance for awhile from us." He looked at Abby. "Nah, I wouldn't leave you because of these two." I say "Od is it try to get to talk to you when they aren't around." He said smirking.

Abby giggled. "This isn't odd at all, but separating us isn't going to be easy. I remember back when we were teenagers--well actually Nadia was a teen, Roxy and I were barely teens--anyway, Nadia was dating this guy, and Roxy and I used to follow her around everywhere, bugging her and interrupting dates. It was so funny, because--"

"Abby!" Nadia shouted, causing her to stop rambling. "What have I told you about rambling, especially in public, and telling stories like that!"

Abby lowered her head and frowned. "Sorry.... Habit...." She muttered.

"Oh, yeah, I remember that." Roxanne snickered. "The poor guy, he could like never have a moment alone with her because of us."

Tangath burst into laughter, but stopped when he saw the look Nadia was giving him. He coughed. "Hmm, not funny at all." He said, slightly chuckling.

Nadia just growled as she turned away from the group. She then started walking off towards their cabin, grumbling things under her breath.

Roxanne snickered and started waving to her. "Bye, Nadia! We'll be sure to talk about you more and tell Tangath all about your past!" She called to her.

Nadia glanced back over her shoulder. "Don't even think about it, Red!" She roared back. Ugh. Those two are more embarrassing than parents. She thought.

Abby giggled. "Well, that's one way to get Nadia to leave."

When he was absolutely sure Nadia was out of earshot, Tangath burst into laughter. "Man!" He yelled "That was hilarious!" I look at Roxanne. "Is there anyway you would leave of your own free will?" He said hopefully.

Roxanne chuckled. "Not likely. I have nowhere to go, nothing to do tonight. Besides, I am a prankster, you can't fool me so easily. You can't outsmart a fox." She smiled with a wink. "I know you're up to something. You're planning to do something the second I leave. I am on to you, pal." She snickered, apparently joking.

Abby sighed and shook her head. She does have a point there. Roxy is very hard to deceive. On the other hand, she may seem like she's joking, but she's serious on some level. I'm sure she doesn't trust this guy. She never trusts any guy. Then again, Nadia isn't one to trust people either, and she left. But she was annoyed. Plus, Roxy's still here. And Roxy might stick around, too.

Tangath nods. "Eh, worth a shot." Tangath says disappointed "I guess you can join us for the rest of the tour." I say. "Also, I wasn't going to do anything." I say, winking at Roxy.

"Right. I'm sure you weren't." Roxanne grinned a bit, but her tone suggested that she didn't believe that. "A tour, huh? A tour of what, this camp? There isn't really much to see. Besides, we've been in several different camps, and they all have the same basic lifestyle. We get the idea by now. Let's do something more fun than a tour."

"Such as?" Abby asked.

Roxanne smirked and put an arm around her shoulders. "Like a prank. Come on, Abby, it's been a little while since you helped me cause a little chaos. I got a bag full of dye bombs and my sling-shot. Care for a little target practice? Or we could go big and really have some fun." She grinned.

Tangath looked at Roxy and sighed. "So much for a night alone with Abby." He muttered under his breath. "I guess I'll join." He said wanting to hang put with Abby anyway he could. "I say we go big."

Rayan noticed thr group of people that Nadia was leaving. "I'll be back!" She shouted before she rushed toward Tangath, Abby, and Roxy. "Hello!"

"Just a question, Roxy, do you plan on pranking Nadia?"

"What makes you think that?"

"Because you always plan on pranking her."

"I don't al--" Roxanne stopped when Abby gave her a look. "Okay, I do." She sighed. "But it's just so much fun!" She chuckled.

Abby sighed. "We just got done calming her down, you can't tick her off now."

"But ticking her off is half the fun." She smirked. Roxanne then turned to face Tangath. "You wanna see what happens when you prank a weretiger? It's a blast." She snickered with a devilish smile.

He chuckled. "Well, considering it took Abby to stop her from almost destroying a werewolf," he said, chuckling to himself "I don't want to tick her off."

Abby noticed Rayan. "Oh, hello again!" She smiled.

Roxanne chuckled at Tangath. "You obviously don't know how to deal with her. Abby and I know how to stop her. I personally know how to manipulate her. You see, Nadia and I have a bit of a rivalry going on. That's why I bug her."

"Hello!? I would like to know what you're doing...." Rayan stated nervously. She was hoping to be friends with them, bithos was just as likely as not. "I believe I heard the word prank!?

Tangath shrugged. "Eh, fine by me." He says, "I'm ready to do whatever you need me to do for this prank."

He noticed Rayan. "Hello." He says.

"Yes." Abby nodded to Rayan. "It's Roxy's idea. She is quite the prankster, after all."

Roxanne shrugged. "Eh, I'm not one to brag. Actually who am I kidding? I totally am!" She chuckled. "Anyway, I like pranking all kinds of people, but Nadia is always my favorite target."

Tangath laughed at Roxy's "modesty" "So much for trying to be modest." He said.

"Modesty? Nah, I have none." Roxanne chuckled.

Abby giggled. "No, not really. You usually go on about how 'perfect' you are."

Meanwhile, Nadia wasn't back at their cabin. Sitting around doing nothing would be too boring. So instead, she headed out of the camp to go hunt. She loved hunting, especially the thrill of the chase. It was an adrenaline rush for her. She had a habit of always giving her prey a chance to run first, as she preferred to chase them down instead of killing them quickly.

Tangath chuckled also, at both Roxy and Abby. "Well, let's get on with the prank already!" He yelled.

"I love pranks! And this one sounds awesome. The target is Nadia right?" Rayan asked. It had been awhile since she ast pulled a prank. She really missed pranking, and this was her perfect chance to re-enter these antics.

"Of course. My target is always Nadia." Roxanne grinned. Then her grin faded. "Unfortunately, though, all my supplies are back at the cabin. I'll have to get them first. Hold on." She said. Then she headed off towards the cabin.

Abby sighed. "I just hope Nadia doesn't go too crazy over this."
