8:52pm….

I wonder, if she watches over me. It's been so long, and yet I sometimes still feel the pain, the tears, and the happiness I felt that day. It was hard for me, but somehow I pulled through, somehow….I feel like she was still meant for so much more in this world, so much more to teach me, but was taken away in the blink of an eye. I remember when we use to sneak out and hide in the grass pretending to be full on predators, but luckily the scouts didn't see us, even when we go during the day. I never found out at the time as to, why the tribes cared for cubs that were predators? My best guess is that they saw something that some or most didn't, that we were killers or carnivores…well, not some of us, not yet actually. But somewhere, they saw that we didn't want to hurt them, just as they didn't want to hurt us. But, she was forced. The last time I saw her, I saw that her whole life, she was forced to be what she was, she didn't have a choice. Worse part is, her parents didn't know what to do, but somehow I did….But…It was too late. I should head back, I wish I could stay out longer, but I don't want them to worry. I enjoy thinking to myself, I wonder if someone else somewhere, out there does the same sometimes.

With Sahadev…

We see that he was outside the tribe practicing his fighting as he was finished he then tried to drink from his canteen but saw that it was empty and thought about it as he went out to get some more water, since he was gonna be out for a little while longer. He looked around his surrounding as he saw one and refilled the canteen but drank some of the water first and puts it in his bag as he then headed back to the tribe.

''...help….''

He heard someone as he stopped walking in his tracks as he looked around but didn't see anyone for it sounded female. He looked at some of the trees and decided to look there as he walked over cautiously for he didn't know if it was a predator or not as in about a minute or so he gets to the tree to see nobody there as he looks a bit further and sees a female Gazelle holding something in a blanket. She had light brown hair, gashes all over her, a necklace made with crystals and a dagger that was close by as he wanted to check if she was alive.

Sahadev-''Miss?'' He asked her but she didn't respond. As he felt where her heart was and felt nothing but as he was about to let go he heard someone sneeze as he looked at what she was holding as he carefully unwrapped it to see a baby, a human baby. It was white, it didn't have any hair but wasn't heavy, but wasn't light either as he was shocked as to why she would be with a baby. But he looked to see that she wasn't part of any tribe, but looked like she fought off someone or something dangerous. He then looked at the baby and saw that it was still asleep as he wrapped the blanket around it in a certain way so it wouldn't get cold. He was so confused, he didn't know what to do about this, for he couldn't take the baby away, the girl was probably the only one who knows anything about the baby, or where he or she came from. He then decided to take a look and saw that it was a boy, he then wrapped it back again for he wanted to see if the Gazelle was still alive or not as he felt the females heart again while holding the baby as he felt a pulse as he sighed in relief as he shook her a little to see if she would wake up, but placed the baby near her so it didn't look like he was trying to kidnap him. ''Ma'am, are you okay?'' He said as she was stirring a little as he then looked in his bag and had a blanket that he had placed on her as he looked for medical supplies and found some herbs that would heal her wounds as he turned around and saw that she was gone, and so was the baby. He was confused for he didn't hear anything behind him, but he felt the baby, and the girl as he heard something behind him as he rolled out of the way from a branch as he got his dagger out and saw that it was the female with her dagger in one hand and was holding the baby close to her.

''Who are you?'' She asked him sounding scared, worried, and like she wanted answers as he places his dagger on the ground.

Sahadev-''My name is Sahadev, I'm not gonna hurt either of you. I know you don't trust me, but I promise I won't harm either of you.'' He said calm and telling the truth as she places her dagger back in her sheathe.

''Why are you out here?'' She asked him.

Sahadev-''First, explain to me why you have a human baby with you?'' He asked her for she knew that he was gonna ask that as she then sat down with the baby still in her arms as he did too.

''I was in Kindoroko, when I heard a human woman calling for help. I was nearby and went over to her, but was unconscious. I then heard an infant crying and I went and saw him, I went inside a house, where the woman lived and saw inside a man and another child dead, but when I walked outside, I saw a few other people dead. I was horrified to see that and ran back inside the house and saw a picture of the woman and the baby with the man and child. T-They were a family, I checked the baby and saw that he was okay which I was glad for but heard the lioness coming. I covered him in some dirt in case it could smell him and I hid him, I hid from the lioness, but when it was getting close to the baby, I killed it. As I walked out of the house with the baby, the woman woke up and was shocked to see me, but calmed down and asked me to find someplace safe for him. She said his name was Brian, I wasn't sure why she trusted me, but as I asked she passed from blood loss and I buried her and her family and ran.'' She said as a few tears escaped her as Sahadev was trying not to tear up either.

Sahadev-''What's your name?'' He asked her as he saw that she had sky blue eyes which he thought were beautiful.

''My name is Kaja, Also I'm sorry for attacking you like that.'' She asked.

Sahadev-''It's okay Kaja, you were protecting Brian, I understand.'' He said.

Kaja-''Thank you, also where am I?'' She asked him.

Sahadev-''You're in Kilimanjaro. If I may ask, how did you get here?'' He asked her.

Kaja-''I walked here, and I was really tired from the fight, and from running that I laid near that tree and I was asleep. But I made sure there were no predators around, thank god there weren't any.'' She said as the baby then started to stir and woke up. ''Hey Brian, Shhh it's okay, go back to sleep.'' She said cradling him as a few seconds later he then went back to sleep. ''Sahadev, do you know anywhere or a group of people I can find to take care of him?'' She asked.

Sahadev-''I'm afraid I don't.'' He said but thought about it. ''But I know someone who can, his name is AD. For the past few days he saved some of our scouts from hunters. I'll explain the rest on the way.'' He said as he backed up and walked with her back to the tribe as in about 7 minutes later they get there as some of the tribe finished getting the bon fire started but some who were a bit far started using their lanterns as Sahadev asked one of the guards if he saw AD and said that he was looking for him at his place and asked who Kaja was as he said he would talk in the morning as they both went to his place to see AD was walking out. ''Wait AD.'' He said as he noticed him and saw that he was with someone and was carrying a baby. ''Hey AD, this is Kaja, Kaja this is AD, and this is Brian.'' He said for AD was a bit surprised about the baby.

Kaja-''It's nice to meet you AD.'' She said.

AD-''It's nice to meet you too but, W-Why does she h-'' He asked but Sahadev stopped him.

Sahadev-''I know, and trust me I was as confused and shocked as you are. But we'll explain on the way to my house.'' He said as they all then entered and saw that Hiya was gone.

AD-''She said that there was an emergency and that she had to leave.'' He said as they both explained to AD the situation as he thought about it, he was sad about the attack as he agreed to find help. ''Maybe, I can go to Snake to see if she can contact anyone yet, but if not, then maybe I can go back to where Kaja found the baby and see if anyone came to help.'' He said. ''I can go right now if you want.'' He suggested.

Sahadev-''It's your call.'' He said.

AD-''Alright, ummm Kaja, I need you to come with me so I know where I'm going.'' He said.

Kaja-''Of course, umm Sahadev.'' She asked looking at him as he responded.

Sahadev-''Yes?'' He asked.

Kaja-''I wanted to say again, thank you for helping me and Brian. I really appreciate it.'' She said with a small smile as he smiled back.

Sahadev-''No problem, also, are you gonna stay here or keep going?'' He asked her.

Kaja-''Well, I've seen only a bit of this place, and it looks amazing, but i'm afraid I'm gonna have to leave when Brian's safe. I usually don't stay in tribes; I've always been traveling with my mom. I hope you understand.'' She asked a little sad but she looked at him and only saw a warm caring smile. ''Also what is the name of your tribe?'' She asked him.

(Play ''Most Emotional Music Ever: Joy and Sorrow by Stefan Grobmann)

Sahadev-''Of course, but your welcomed any time if you change your mind. If not, then I hope you have a safe journey. Also if you want, I can get you some supplies you might need. Also this is the Kilimanjaro tribe.'' He said as she thanked him. As AD got done getting ready, Kaja was given food, water, fire crystals, a map, some blankets, a tent, pillows, and blankets to keep her warm in really cold climates. Kaja and AD then both left as 2 hours go by and they see that people were still at the camp alive but only a few were injured as he then entered the home as Kaja said goodbye and took her necklace off and had placed it around Brian for him to remember her for Brian was upset to see her go but had cradled him to sleep as they both left and someone found Brian. Kaja then said goodbye to AD and asked if he could say goodbye to Sahadev for her, and he said he would as she then left as AD went back. He couldn't ask for help or else it could reveal the tribe's as he kept going.

2 hours later….

We see that AD made it back to the tribe as he saw Sahadev outside the tribe and saw him and asked about Brian and Kaja. AD then told him that Brian was okay and that Kaja said goodbye as they both then went in the tribe and told them what happened while they were there.

Sahadev-''Say AD, Where do you sleep? I mean I'm just curious and a bit concerned is all.'' He asked.

AD-''Oh, well I sleep in Rehzi's tent. Usually in a chair or a sleeping bag on the group so I'm fine.'' He said. ''I got a sleeping bag from Snakes plane the last time I went there.'' He said as Sahadev wondered why he slept in a chair but decided to let it slide. ''I'm still recovering from the fact that a few people died, I probably won't sleep for a little while.'' He said.

Sahadev-''If you need anyone to talk to, just ask me or the others.'' He said to him.

AD-''Thanks, i'll need it.'' He said to him.

Sahadev-''Say, why didn't you go to the people for help?'' He asked him.

AD-''Well, I was afraid that they would see you and reveal your world so, that's why I-''.

RING!

Something sounded as Sahadev was surprised a little by that for it was AD's phone.

Sahadev-''What is that?'' He asked curious looking at it as AD explained to him that it was his phone, he was shocked since before it didn't have a signal as he answered and it was friend asking him how he was doing.

AD-''Oh, great actually. Say I was wondering unless you were busy, why didn't you just call?'' He asked for his friend actually got hit by a car and had to go to the hospital for him. I'm talking about AD's friend, friend. After about 2 minutes he then hung up wondering how he got reception from where he was, guess it was a really good phone.
