Disclaimer: We don't own Brother Bear, we never shall. We only own Aquene, Deva, and Hakan. This is a year later, (I want some cute ideas, so send 'em if you have any).

Ch.1 A typical day, and some wrong things

'I wonder where she's going?' Kenai thought as he watched Deva go into the forest. He was supposed to be watching Aquene, but that bored him. She was too young to be taught how to hunt, fish, fight, all those things. His hiding spot, which was in the trees, was where he watched people.

"'Eni! 'Eni!" Aquene called out from under the tree. She looked up at him put her hands up, as if she wanted to be picked up.

'Don't let Sitka or Denahi catch me. Don't let. . .' He thought as he started to climb higher.

"KENAI! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO WATCH AQUENE!" Denahi hollered. He stormed under the tree and peered up at him. "Get down here!"

Damn. Caught too soon. 'Note to self: Find new hiding place,' He thought as he climbed higher.

"Kenai! Oh for. . ." Picking Aquene up, he skillfully climbed the tree. He learned to carry his sister like that months ago, but Sitka didn't approve of it. He climbed until he could reach Kenai's foot. Steadying himself, he gave a hard jerk on Kenai's ankle, sending him back to the forest ground.

"Denahi! What was that for?" Kenai asked as he sat up. Denahi climbed slowly down the tree, an angry look on his face.

"You were supposed to watch your sister, and instead you watch your girlfriend!" Denahi snapped impatiently. Aquene started to squirm from under his arm, but he tightened his grip.

"She's not my girlfriend!"

"She's a girl and a friend, right?"

"I. . . She. . . Oh, forget it!"

"Dow'! Dow'!" Aquene cried as she continued to squirm from under Denahi's grip.

"In a moment," he said softly, before turning on Kenai again. "You always seem to care about your girlfriend! If you like her so much, then ask her to marry you!"

"I just might as well do that!" Kenai snapped before he realized what he said. 'Great. Just great.'

Smirking, Denahi turned to the direction that Deva went to and hollered: "DEVA! KENAI WANTS TO MARRY YOU!"

"Shut up, Denahi!" Kenai yelled before he hit him on the arm. The hit was too low, so he hit Aquene instead. Aquene's eyes started to water, and she began to cry.

"Oh, Aquene," Denahi started to soothe her. She gripped his arm tightly, and cried harder. "Kenai!"

"You deserved it, Denahi!" Kenai snapped back as he tried to help. Aquene's sobs turned into quiet sobs, and she eventually fell asleep against Denahi.

"Kenai! You need to learn to be more responsible!" Denahi told his younger brother. "You might have kids one of these days."

"Yeah, or maybe I'll watch YOUR brats," Kenai snapped as he stormed off into the forest. "Kenai do this, Kenai, watch the brat, nyah nyah nyah!" Kenai did a high-pitched imitation of Denahi.

'Ever since she became part of our family, Denahi and Sitka really changed. They always seem to care about her more than anything, they always tell me to be more responsible, if I do something wrong, I get hollered at. If she does something wrong, she just gets told no' Kenai thought bitterly.

He finally reached the river and sat down next to it. This was where he would think about things, and to be left alone. He stared off into his thought, thinking of what it would have been like if Aquene didn't exist. He started to think about what would happen today if she weren't here, when a splash interrupted his thoughts. He turned towards the sound, and could feel his face turn red. Deva was taking a bath at the other side of the river! He started to move his mouth slowly, before he crawled behind some bushes to get a closer look.

Deva, who heard the sudden rustle, quickly hid her shoulders down under the water. She grabbed her oversized shirt and pulled it on her, standing up quickly while doing so. She held it closed, and slowly crept over to the rustling.

'Oh great. What am I supposed to do now? Just say, "Hi Deva, I saw you with your clothes off. Do you mind if I watch?"'

Deva quickly pulled the bushes away, revealing a scared looking Kenai. She slowly started to blush.

"PERVERT!" *SMACK!*

*Few minutes later. . .*

A very red Deva stormed into the village, and Kenai, with a slap mark, nervously followed.

"What happened to you?" Denahi asked.

Kenai said nothing and turned away, embarrassed.

"Your brother watched me in the river," Deva snapped before storming away.

"What does she . . . KENAI!" Kenai jumped up and started running, and Denahi chased after him.

TBC . . .

Me: The Deva and Kenai parts sorta disturbing. Should we take it out? :o

Megan: Yeah, so? You wrote worse things in your diaries that involve Denahi! ;P ;P

Me: Never mind. *@_@*
