Hello~.
Saffron's p.o.v.
"You get your ungrateful ass back her Saffron!" Was the last thing I heard my stepmother say to me as I was running out the door.
Having fought with my father earlier that day my patience was already running thin therefore I was not within the right mind set to deal with my stepmother.
"Not happening Minerva, I'll be home later!" I called back dipping into the woods and running the path I memorized when I was ten. That was when my mother died and father married Minerva six months later. That was when the fighting started.
Hitting the end of the path I walked into a clearing where the ancestral ring was. It had become my happy place so to speak.
A place where I could sit and dream, dream of all the ways I could get out of the camp, the places I could see people I could meet. Where I could dream of how life might have been had my mother not died.
Hearing the ring start to dial I ducked back into the woods to watch.
Four people came out, Three men and a woman.
Not able to hear what they said I just watched as they headed towards camp. Running as fast as I could I made it back to the camp to warn father of the new comers but a welcome party had already went to bring them to us.
As the group came into camp I recognized the woman as Teyla.
Running forwards as I called out her name I crashed into her,
arms rapping around her neck in a hug.
"Saffron" She said as her arms came around me one had resting on my head in a jester of comfort "How have you been my friend?"
"Counting down the days Teyla." I responded headless of the surrounding people watching our exchange.
Pulling back at a cough from one of her team I looked closer at her group.
"These men are not Athosian Teyla I never thought you would leave your people" I said in a questioning tone.
"No Saffron they are not but they are friends, They have saved my life more then once I trust them… But we are only here to trade." She answered my unasked questions
"Then why do you bring weapon's?" Someone from the crowd asked.
"Just a precaution, You never know" The man I assume is in charge spoke up.
"Saffron this is Major Sheppard, Lieutenant Ford, and Doctor McKay." Teyla jesters to each person as she goes.
"I am Saffron Regan" I say shaking each person's hand "But if you are only here to trade then I should take you to my father" I say leading the way before anyone could say anything.
Leading the group into the tavern where they sit down with father I can feel Major Sheppard's eyes on my back the entire walk.
"Ill be at home if anyone needs me" I say heading to the door.
"We won't Saffron." Minerva snaps at me.
"Watch your mouth Minerva just because we have company does not mean I won't speak my mind!" I toss back as I walk out of the tavern.

Its was an hour and a half before Teyla came to speak to me.
"You know" She said as I put our tea on the table "you are welcome to come with me anytime you like, the offer still stands"
"Teyla I appreciate the offer I really do my friend , But as much as I hate it here this is my home and my father is a good man despite what Minerva would have people think"
"I understand Saffron But please remember if you ever change your mind you only need to tell me and I will make it happen" Teyla said as her radio went off calling her away.
"I know my friend I know" I whispered to no one as I watched Teyla walk out of the room.
