"So what exactly are we hunting?"

Scar and Lex were sitting in the bush completely hidden from any animals grazing in the near by field. Scar lent some weapons for Lex to use on this hunt. Scar tried to explain exactly what he wanted to hunt. He drew a picture, tried to show which his hands, anything to explain. Finally he just popped the image on his gauntlet.

"That's a grizzly bear." He nodded.

He led the hunt. A young looking male bear entered the field. It just meant to cross on by but the duo had other plans. Scar charged out taking most of the bear's attention and allowing Lex to flank it. Once in striking range Lex took her spear and rammed it into the bear's side. Scar finished the kill with a death blow to the heart.

"I ain't carrying it, big man..." Lex crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow. Scar huffed and threw the bear over his shoulder before heading back up the mountain with Lex trailing behind.

Checking her watch Lex cringed, "Looks like I need to head off. I'll have to see you later." Scar nodded. Lex grabbed her stuff and with heavy steps left back down the mountain. Once she reached the town at the bottom, she got her cab and headed home.

It was a month later when Scar showed up at her little hidden oasis. Lex had been relaxing on her deck, just letting the sunshine warm her, when a dark shadow fell over her. Lex kept calm. Her hand, which was hanging off the chair, gripped the gun underneath to be prepared. Then when she opened her eyes, she brought the gun up to fire.

The predator before her, clicked with laughter at the little weapon she "threatened" him with.

"It may not kill you but it'll still hurt won't it?" Scar sobered quickly. "Yep, that's what I thought."

Scar clicked about before pointing to her, then him, and lastly the woods.

"You want to take a walk in the woods with me?" Scar nodded and the two headed off.

"Why'd you come here? How'd you even know where I lived?"

Scar pointed off into the distance and began to form something in his hands.

"You found me using your ship?" Scar nodded vigorously. "Alright... Where are we going?"

Again Scar formed the shape of his ship with his hands. They were heading to his ship. When they finally arrived, the field was empty. With a few buttons from his gauntlet, the ship's cloak vanished. The ship itself was of medium size. It wasn't like a pod but perhaps could be compared to a sailing boat.

The ramp came down and the two boarded. There was a light fog that surrounded Lex's ankles and the humid air was already dampening Lex's clothes.

"Damn it's hot in here.." Scar clicked in amusement before slowly pushing Lex forward. The ramp came up and the door closed behind him. The only real light was the light glow from the walls. The glow was a mixture of red, blues and purples. If one was to look closely it almost seemed as if it was pulsing.

Lex stopped to trace her hand on the patterns it formed. Scar waited until she was done before leading her to the kitchen. There he ate some some meat but Lex had already ate and refused a bite.

Suddenly a few more predators entered. They stopped in their tracks as they spotted the new guest. One was angered by the fact a human was allowed on board. He roared and began to throw things about the place. Lex jumped from the sudden aggression. She expected this reaction but wasn't prepared for pots to be thrown at her head. She dodged the alien devices and tools while keeping the table between them. Scar stood as well and tried to stop his comrade.

The other two stood by the door and watched. Finally the shorter one came forward and caught the pan like object that would have hit Lex in the face. He spoke to the rest of them and everything settled down. Once everything was put back, they sat, once again, at the table. Lex sat in between the short predator and Scar.

The shorter one had reddish hues that made his gray skin almost glow. It almost looked like molten lava cooling. Molten... I'll call him Molten for now.

The predator across from her who had been offended (she could only guess) by her presence had more of a jungle tone to him. His skin was a blend of green and brown, very earthy like. Jungle Man would be soo original... Not. Um... How about I call you Jag? Yeah I like that too.

There was the last predator to deal with. His skin was quite different. While everyone had more of a dark or earthy tone. Scar even had a green and gray mix about him and, from what she remembers, Celtic, though had more green than Scar, had the same green and gray mix too. This predator had a pitch black skin all around but the blue hues were clearly visible about him. Night... He reminds me of the night. Perhaps Knight would suffice... Nah Night will do.

The predators talked among themselves. Their favorite topic was about Lex. The uncomfortable air in the room heightened when Jag began to growl and it looked like he was ready to reach across and strangle Scar. Casually, Lex checked her watch. It was almost seven and that meant that the sun would be going down. If she didn't make it back before night fall she was going to have a difficult time finding her house. Plus her tv show comes on at nine and it's the season premiere!

Nudging Scar lightly, Lex pointed to her watch to let him know she needed to go. Scar slumped his shoulders before growling at Jag. Grabbing the rest of his meat he escorted Lex out the door and back outside.

When the cool air hit her skin Lex breathed freely.

"Good God. It's like a sauna in there. I can't go back in there without fear of a heat stroke," Lex went to wipe some precipitation off her forehead when Scar's hand beat her to it. "Thanks." Lex smiled at him.

The door to the ship reopened causing Lex to jump. Another predator joined them outside, it was Night. He stood silently by Scar as if waiting for something.

"He's coming with us?"

Scar nodded. Lex turned to address Night.

"Um... Okay but I'm not sure what to call you so can I give you a nickname? It'd be easier for me."

Night turned to confront Scar and Scar explained exactly what Lex wanted. Night nodded.

"Okay cool. Not sure if you know but I'm Lex and I'll just call you Night. Cool?"

Night nodded again and pronounced Lex's name to see if he could.

"Lax...L-Leax... Lex."

"Awesome. Let's go cause I'm going to miss my show."

They all headed back through the woods. Once they reached her house, Lex said goodnight and they in turn waved.

Once safely inside Lex sat at her computer. She began to write a message.

Dear Miana,

I realize it's been a while but

Lex quickly stopped writing and deleted everything.

"Tomorrow. I'll try to write again tomorrow..."
