C2A4: Ka nowenta!
004: come again?
002: I believe that means: 'Holy cow!'
C2A4: hehe..yeah, my language!
004: so, why'd you cry out?
0010-: I accidentally dropped the butter knife I was using to cover my English muffin with peanut butter
004: oh..on with the story!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
That night, 005 and Pouncing Cougar were arguing.
"What are they saying?" I demanded.
"You don't wanna know," 001 said.
"TELL ME!" I cried.
"Pouncing Cougar's doing a lot of swearing, that's all I'm gunna say."
"Okay, fine with me," I said. "Goodnight! See you in the morning!" I said before going to my teepee.
"Here you go," 005 said the next morning as she handed me a bowl that had flat things in it.
"Um.what are these?"
"Flat corn cakes!" she replied with a smile. "Very delicious."
I ate twenty.
"Chief, you should save some food for the other members of the tribe!" 004 said.
"Shut your mouth!" I said. "I'm hungry and 005's a great chef!"
Pouncing Cougar muttered something as he grabbed a cake. Then 005 told him in Native American.
"What? What'd he say?" I asked.
"Nothing."
Then, Asa ran by chasing a butterfly.
"003, did you teach him that?" 005 asked.
"No, his father did," 003 said.
"Francoise! You promised!" 009 cried.
"Oh, I guess I forgot!"
"I'd teach my son to wrestle bears, not chase butterflies," I said.
"You don't want to do that," 005 said. "I can hardly win, even with my strength."
"Oh, you found out how to get the super strength to work?" Dr. Gilmore said.
"Just last week!"
"Good, good. How do you turn it on?"
"Too difficult to explain."
"Okay."
"Anyway, all bears are very tough, especially males. You don't want to wrestle them," 005 said.
"Like I said, I'll teach him to wrestle squirrels!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A month had passed. The others were still here. And Asa was wrestling squirrels.I would think he would win, but the squirrels win.
"No, Asa! Don't touch that!" I said while stopping him from touching poison ivy.
"Why?" he asked.
"It'll make you itchy for a long time," I said while picking him up and setting him on my shoulder.
"Oh," he said. "Auntie Wolf, are you and Uncle Jet married?"
"No."
"Why?"
"Well, your Uncle Jet doesn't love me in that way. We're just friends."
"Oh."
"Tell the others I went for a walk and I'll be back before dawn, okay?" I told Asa as I set him down in the village.
"Okay!" he said before chasing a butterfly.
Is it just me or are there a lot of butterflies around here?
'Something's troubling you.'
'Gee, that's obvious,' I thought as I was crouched down on a cliff.
I sighed as I looked west. Then sun was setting and the winter was coming. Now that I had more people around, it would be harder to find food that I liked. The other cyborgs had plenty of their own food, but they- especially 002-liked my cooking.
"I thought I'd find you here," 002 said while landing next to me. "What are you doing?"
"Thinking."
"About what?"
"Nothing in particular."
"Oh. Guess what Asa asked me?"
"Why you have a beak for a nose?"
"Ha, ha. No, he asked me why I don't love you."
"Uh.um.I.um.ugh." I tried to talk, but the words wouldn't come.
"Yeah, that's basically what I said."
I was still speechless.
"Then 004 kept pestering me because he was there when Asa asked the question."
"Uh...."
Then, 002 stood up.
"Hey! What are you doing?" I cried as he picked me.
He just smirked before jumping into the air.
I looked down....waaaaaaay down.
"Don't worry! I won't let you fall!" 002 laughed.
Then, just to make me scream, he jerked his arms.
"Jet! That was mean!" I cried.
"What'd you call me?"
"Jet."
"Hey! You remembered my name!"
"Wow.I never knew it was hard to remember three little letters! I also remember, 'Me strong husband, you sexy wife' and 'If you don't get off of my lap, I'll be forced to kiss you.' And then you did kiss me," I said sarcastically.
He blushed at that.
"It was your idea to kiss me, not mine," I said.
"I never said it was!" he snapped.
"Whatever," I said. "Can we please go back onto the ground? I see Snow Fur."
He took us back to the ground.
"Hi, Snow Fur!" I laughed as she knocked me over and drenched my face in drool. She allowed me to get up and wash my face in the stream nearby. "Did you have a good meal? You're fatter!" I laughed as I petted her.
She barked three times before running over to 002 and licking his hand.
He smirked as he petted her.
"How old is Snow Fur?"
"One summer has passed."
"A year.that's young."
I stood up and walked over to the two.
"I saved her from a bear," I said. "That's how I know not to wrestle an angry bear."
002 laughed.
"You've got to be the strangest woman I've ever met," he said. (a/n: gunna get fluffy!)
"How's that?"
"You're the complete opposite of Francoise. You're beautiful and strong."
Speechless.
"You're not afraid to fight, either. You just follow orders. Most woman are afraid they'll break a nail or their hair will get messed up."
"That's what the woman in my village were like.but they were kind and raised me when my parents were killed. I miss them."
"I know you do. Anyone would miss their friends."
I felt hot tears running down my face as the visions of my past flashed in my eyes.
'Come on, Soaring Eagle! You can beat Sleeping Wind!' village children cried as Sleeping Wind and I were having a competition to see who could track the best.
'Sorry, Sleeping Wind, but I'm going to win this race!' I laughed as I neared the line.
Then, I tripped just as Sleeping Wind came up behind me.
'Who won?' Quiet Water asked.
'Soaring Eagle! Her hand passed the line before Sleeping Wind did!' Little River cried.
I let out a small sob as I sat on my knees. 002 sat down in front of me and hugged me.
"I want my village back!" she sobbed.
"I know you do. But like you said, their spirits are with you all the time."
Then, 002 kissed my cheek and we heard a gunshot.
