Here we go! On to chapter 2! Hmmm...I hope that others are reading this...I waited for over a week to update it...;

"Are you okay?" Kenai asked the white and brown bear once they were safe. The grizzly nodded her head shakily in reply.

"Uh..huh...Thank you for coming to my rescue.. I thought I was a gonner.."

Kenai smiled. "Just consider yourself lucky that my brother and I heard your calls."

"I know I am lucky..and very grateful."

Kenai decided to introduce himself. "My name is Kenai."

"I know...your brother told me." the white bear replied with a giggle.

Kenai blinked. "Ohh..well than..what's your name?"

"Yeah, you never did tell us!" Koda said as he remembered earlier.

"That's because I was attacked!" the white and brown grizzly said, sounding a bit defensive. She cleared her throat. "My name is Kia...it's very nice to meet you both."

Koda grinned. "Hi Kia!So what brings you to these parts?Are you going to the Salmon Run?"

Kia blinked. "Salmon what?"

Koda gasped. "Don't tell me you never heard of it!"

Kenai laughed. "Don't worry, Koda.I'll tell her about it..." He turned to Kia. "The Salmon Run is a big river that's filled with fish.Every year a whole bunch of bears like us gather there to fish and tell stories."

"Oh...I never heard of it." Kia said shrugging.

Kenai looked at her. "Well...we're headed there right now-"

"Yes we're on our way!" Koda interrupted, starting to sing again.

Kenai ignored the cub and continued speaking. "Do you want to come with us?" he asked with a friendly and somewhat hopeful smile on his face.

Koda stopped singing and tackled Kia from behind, startling her. "Oh yeah!You've got to come! It would be so much fun!" He said excitedly.

Kenai laughed at the cub's enthusiasm. "So what do you say?" he asked Kia.

Kia took a step backward, away from Kenai and Koda. "Well I...don't know...I mean..we just met.and this is all kind of sudden...I don't think so...not this time." she took another step backward.

Kenai got up and walked over behind her. Kia bumped into Kenai and turned to face him. "Why not, Kia?" Kenai questioned her."It's not like you were headed someplace anyway, right?" He put a friendly paw on her shoulder.

"Actually I-I am." Kia replied, moving Kenai's paw off her shoulder. "I am going home, to my cave. Thank you for helping me, but now I need to be going." She turned away from Kenai and started to walk away.

"Hey-hey-hey! Wait! Come back!" Kenai called, and ran in front of her.

Kia groaned. "What now, Kenai?" she asked, looking slightly impatient.

"Wh-what if...you run into that hunter again?" Kenai asked her.

Kia shrugged. "I guess I'll just have to walk across that log when I come to it." she said, though Kenai's words worried her.

Kenai frowned. "You wouldn't have anybody to protect you!If you come with us, I promise to protect you from anything that attacks you!" he said, a glint of hope still in his eyes.

Kia blushed and turned away from him. "Kenai, I'll be fine." she protested. "My cave's not too far away from here, and I'm familiar with the path, so don't worry about me."

Kenai frowned. "Ok Kia..." Then he had an idea. He smirked. "Koda and I were going to show you something really cool, but it's obvious that your mind is already made up, so good bye."

Kenai winked at Koda and the cub winked back. Kenai grinned, glad that the cub was playing along.

"C'mon, Koda." he said and he and the cub turned and started to walk away.

Kia blinked. "Hey, wait!" she called out. "What...kind of really cool thing?"

Kenai looked back at her. "Oh, just the coolest thing you'll ever see in your whole life...but you've already said no, so it's okay." He continued walking away.

Kia frowned and let out a frusterated growl. "Hey, wait up you guys!" she said as she took off running after Kenai and Koda.

Kenai smirked and looked at Koda. "You see? That trick works everytime!" he whispered, and Koda nodded, grinning.

"Hey guys, wait!" Kia called as she finally caught up to them.

Kenai turned and looked at her, a serious expression on his face. "Yes?"

Kia sighed. "Well...I guess...if you really want me to come, I will...I mean...it's not like I really need to get home right away..."

Kenai and Koda both just looked at her, both of them still looking serious.

"Umm..where is this "really cool" thing you wanted to show me?" Kia asked.

Kenai shrugged. "At the Salmon Run."

"Ok...than if you still want me to come..I guess I could-"

"Ok, great!Follow us!" Kenai said, cutting her off. Kia nodded, and started to walk alongside him. Koda climbed up on his big brother's back and whispered in his ear.

"Uh...Kenai?What "really cool" thing do you plan on showing Kia?"

"I'm thinkin', I'm thinkin'!" Kenai muttered frusteratedly as he, Koda and Kia walked along..
