Where are we?:

Daine opened her eyes. She was out in the middle of the woods. She felt like throwing up all of a sudden.

'Well, at least we you you're okay.' She said to her stomach.

'Who are you talking to?' Kaddar asked.

Daine looked up at him. He was looking at her like she was going crazy.

'The thing inside of me.' She replied putting her hand over her unborn child.

'You're talking to an unborn child. Why?' he asked raising an eyebrow.

'Because.' She replied.

'Are you going to finish?'

'I don't have to have an answer to you. She's my child I can do what I want.'

'How do you know it's a girl?'

'I don't. Why are you asking me really dumb questions?' she snapped.

'Never mind. Can you tell where we are?' he asked.

'Mr. High and mighty can't?' she mocked.

'I've never been in woods before.' He replied.

Daine got up and walked around the clearing. She asked all of the animals where the closest town was. A lot of them didn't know, but a few did.

'Will you take us there?' she asked one of the birds out loud. Even though she wasn't in the best of moods with Kaddar.

Yes, the bird said.

'Led the way.' She kissed the bird's beak.

Is he your mate? The bird asked. Daine laughed out loud.

'No.' She laughed. 'My mate's at home.' Probably worried out of his mind too, she thought. Daine replaced her hand over her stomach.

Are you having a little bird?

'A baby.' She laughed.

A two-legger?

'Yes a two-legger.' She laughed.

'What are you talking about?' Kaddar asked.

'She wanted to know if I was having a baby.' Daine said simply.

Daine conversed with the small bird for a while. When they got to the edge of the trees she stopped.

Right through there. She said happily.

'Thank you very much.' Daine said.

The bird flew a way as fast as its wings would take it.

'Going home to its family.' Daine said under her breath.

'I've never met someone so content on a baby.' Kaddar replied.

'You've never met a mother then have you.' Daine replied shortly. Kaddar was really starting to get to her.

Daine pushed back the branches and walked though. She had to keep a strait face when she purposely let the braches hit Kaddar.
