Near Whale Island/ Boat/ Deck/ Hunter contestants, Passengers, ship crew, Pitou, Emerald
The scene now showed The Boat floating along the sea while Emerald, hours after his fun with Pitou and waking in the morning, was busy mopping the deck because the captain heard all the yells and heard from Katzo that Emerald was the main reason for the screams and as a result… well… Emerald was doing chores to make up for the noise he made, granted he did try and tell that Pitou started it but the captain pretty much told Emerald that since he screamed, he was at fault for overreacting like that.
Emerald currently was grumbling while Katzo who was carrying a small box of things just chuckles lightly in passing while Pitou, who was curious about what Whale island looked like, hopped all the way to the crows nest and after surprising the lookout, she looked towards whale island and her tail wagged a bit when she saw the island actually looking like a whale of all things.
"Nya Nya Nya, looks like my favorite island already, wonder if they have good tasting fish as well." Pitou thought before she jumped back onto the deck of the boat where Emerald was.
"Hey Emerald were nearly at Whale Island." Pitou said which made Emerald sigh.
"Oh thank God, my punishment is nearly over." Emerald said made Pitou giggle.
"Well it's because you are a screamer after all." Pitou teasingly said which caused a tick mark to appear on Emerald's head.
"And whose fault do you think it is!?" Emerald growled out while Pitou looks away innocently while she had a cat like smirk on her face which caused Emerald to roll his eyes and sighs again.
"Good grief, anyway mind doing me a favor and grab my stuff from my sleeping area?, I'll meet you off the boat when dock." Emerald said while he keeps mopping the deck and Pitou giggles a bit.
"Sure, see you later Emerald." Pitou said before she shocked Emerald when she kissed him on the cheek and he froze comically from what just happened and looks to see that Pitou was already jogging away at a playful pace while Emerald's gaze went to her ass and blushed more when he still remembered all that happened last night and swept a bit faster with a surprisingly happy look on his face… seems he was a lot more happy then angry then he seemed right now.
Meanwhile with Pitou, she had gone to gather her things and with Dr. Blythe using her tools to drag things to her, it was simple for Pitou to gather her things while she made sure to place her recently cleaned nightwear at the bottom of her bag so she can save it for later.
Pitou smiles when she got everything cleaned up before she went to Emerald's room to grab his things and all he had was two items already set up, a backpack that Emerald had and a trench coat that he has yet to use in case it rains or he needed for stealth moments since it helped blend him in with the darkness.
Pitou picked up the backpack and the coat before she left the room after making sure everything was fully packed before she met with Emerald on deck as the boat was nearing the port.
"Here, hope I didn't miss anything." Pitou said when she passed the items to Emerald who took a quick peek in his backpack and smiles at Pitou.
"Nah everything is here, already packed so just needed this, thanks Pitou." Emerald said while he equipped the backpack and held the coat in his right arm while Pitou smiles back at Emerald a little.
"No problem, just happy to help, anyway since were about to dock, I'm hoping to get to eat some good fish here before we leave for the Hunter Exam." Pitou said with a small cat like smile on her face which made Emerald blush before he clears his throat to help collect himself.
"Y-Yeah… we can get something to eat when we get to port, but I'm hoping to explore the island a bit before we leave… I wonder if we can find a guide to help give a tour…" Emerald said while the boat sails towards the docks while the scene shifts to a kid around the age of 11 or 12 with black spiky hair with green tips, and hazel colored eyes, and he was carrying a large fish many times his size over his head as he had an excited grin on his face, he wore a mainly green attire that consisted of a green jacket with orange lining for the zipper and pockets while he wore green shorts and green boots, all in all he looked to be decked out for many types of weather.
Whale Island/ port/ ?
"Aunt Mito!, I caught it!" The Kid said which got many people's attention before they start to talk among one another when they saw that the kid managed to catch a very special fish on Whale Island, some called it the Master of the Swamp or the lord of the Lake in some circles.
Though for many, the kid's name was Gon Freecss and thanks to a deal with his aunt Mito, or more like his mother figure, Gon managed to get the Master of the swamp after many days of fishing to allow him to take the Hunter exam which showed when Gon ran up to his aunt Mito.
She was a woman in her 20's with a well proportioned body that was hidden by her dress.
Mito is a young woman with fair skin, hazel eyes, and orange, shoulder-length hair, She wears a red, long-sleeved blouse that partly exposes her collarbones over a long cream-colored dress, she wears brown shoes and as for the accessories, she has a blue torc around her neck.
She was a bit confused when she barely heard Gon but when Mito looked, she had a shocked look on her face when Gon dropped the massive fish near her while plenty of fishermen were gathering around the catch to admire it while Gon ran up to Mito with a grin on his face while some fishermen talked with one another.
"Holy crap… even five men were not able to catch the master of the pond…" One fisherman said with a bewildered look on his face when he wondered if Gon was even human.
Another hums and looked thoughtful.
"I've fished here for 10 years and I never thought we would see it." An old fisherman said while some admired Gon's strength.
Gon however ignored them to look at his aunt when he got to her and held out some kind of card like object.
"I fished the pond's master like I promised, you turn to keep your promise Aunt Mito." Gon said while he grins at the woman who looks at Gon with a worried look on her face but a couple fisherman gave Mito amused looks.
"Come on, accept, let him pass this exam." One man said while a more amused one had a grin on his face.
"Yeah I'm sure Gon will be a very good Hunter." the amused man said which caused Mito to glare at the two.
"How careless!, pay attention to what you say!" Mito growled out at the two which caused the two men to walk away in a rush to avoid Mito's anger.
Though Gon, still feeling happy just grins and said this to the two men who were still in earshot.
"She's right, words are important." Gon said before he looks at Mito.
"And wasn't it you, Aunt Mito that taught me to always keep my promises?" Gon said which caused Mito to look at Gon for a second.
"Wasn't it?" Gon said while he gave Mito a curious look which caused Mito to sigh when she knew she couldn't stop this and took the card like object and after a moment with a beep from the card, Mito passed it back to Gon and walked towards her and Gon's home.
"Do as you wish." Mito said which caused Gon to smile at his aunt.
"Alright!, thanks!" Gon said before he ran off while the scene went back to Emerald and Pitou as they leave the boat and heard the captain talking with the crew.
"Alright men!, we're going to be spending one week here to rest and restock on supplies and make sure the boat is in tip top shape from bow to stern!, after this island were shooting straight to the mainland to drop off the applicants for the Hunter exam and other passengers we have!" The captain said while Emerald who heard that rubbed the back of his head.
"Guess we're stuck here for a week Pitou, wonder what we should do now, look for an Inn or something?" Emerald said while he and Pitou walked away from the boat and nearly crashed into a kid with some kind of card in hand as he rushed by and while he did not stop, the kid turned while running backwards said this loudly.
"Sorry about that!" the kid said while Emerald, who nearly got angry got a confused look before he looks at Pitou.
"What do you think the rush is for?" Emerald said while Pitou shrugged, however she did get a glance at the card in the kids hand and smirked.
"Seems he's about to take the hunter exam if that card is an indicator." Pitou said which shocked Emerald.
"Seriously!?, that kid?, damn guess the rumors about being able to apply when you are really young are true." Emerald said while he had his hands in his pockets.
"Well unexpected things all across this world so you never know what to expect." Pitou said which made Emerald grin a bit more when he felt excited for that.
"Yeah, maybe after I get my license, I'll go across this world for one grand adventure." Emerald said with his eyes glowing a bit thanks to his aura reacting to his excitement which made Pitou giggle a little.
"Well we should find a place to bunk at but unless you and I are willing to pay some gold, why not ask that kid when he gets back to see if we can crash at his place." Pitou said which made Emerald blink a few times.
"Uh… pretty sure two strangers asking to crash at a kids place would be all kinds of red flags Pitou." Emerald said while Pitou gave a cat like smirk.
"What, afraid of a little ol kid nya?" Pitou said which caused a tick mark to appear on Emerald's head.
"*Growls*... ugh fine, if we run into the kid again we can ask but don't be surprised if he shoots us down." Emerald said while Pitou smirks when her plan for a free week in a place to sleep was working so far, now to see how the kid will react.
"Well if you want, we can follow the kid, I have a good nose for tracking and I have a pretty large En after all." Pitou said while her nose twitched adorably which made Emerald blush somewhat before he rubbed the back of his head and sighs.
"Fine, lead the way Pitou." Emerald said which made Pitou smirk before she ran after the kid with Emerald in tow.
Whale Island/?/ Emerald, Pitou
After a few minutes of tracking with Pitou leading the way thanks to her nose, Emerald and Pitou land behind a bush and saw the kid fishing from a nearby stream while a massive creature was next to the kid and it looked like it was just… relaxing near him… the shocking thing to Emerald though was that creature was a Foxbear, a creature that was somehow a mix between a fox and a bear.
Though the main thing that surprised Emerald and Pitou was the fact that Foxbears are normally hostile to humans.
For Emerald he was concerned that them being here would get the kid attacked by accident while Pitou smirks out of Emerald's view when she examined the Foxbear and after taking a bit to think, surprised Emerald when she got up and walked out of the bush before Emerald could stop her.
Emerald jolts at that while the kid with the foxbear jolts as well when he heard the bushes shaking and when he and the Foxbear looked over to the shaking bushes, they saw Pitou exiting the leafy foliage right before Emerald exits the bush as well while the kid looked a bit confused.
"Who are you?" The Kid asked which made Pitou smile her cat like smirk at the kid while Emerald rubbed the back of his head.
"Well first off I am Pitou, and this is Emerald, you ran into us on the way here at the docks and we noticed the Hunter exam card that you had and we wanted to ask you something since you are also going to where the Hunter exam is being held." Pitou said which caused the kid to blink before he smiles quite a bit.
"Oh yeah I remember you two now!, sorry about that... my name is Gon, Gon Freecss, and this is Kon, the Ruler of the Forest, I was just saying goodbye to him." The Kid now identified as Gon to Pitou and Emerald said while he looks at the Foxbear next to him who looks at Gon with a kind look on his face which caused Emerald to get a confused look on his face.
"Why say goodbye though?, you'll see him again when you get back right?" Emerald asked which made Gon shakes his head negatively.
"Kon is the Ruler of the Forest, while I helped raised him, Foxbear females don't like humans and if Kon was seen being friendly with humans, it would undermine his authority here so this is my goodbye to him." Gon said while he looks at Kon with a smile on his face.
Kon in turn had a happy look on his face when he saw Gon smiling at him and though he knew that he couldn't go near Gon again after this, he would always think of him as a good friend which caused Emerald and Pitou to smile a bit since this was a pretty big requirement for a Hunter… for a Hunter to be well liked by animals… or at least that's what Pitou read and what Emerald was taught before Gon looks at the duo.
"So what did you want to ask me?" Gon asked with a smile on his face before Pitou clapped her hands together for a moment.
"Well we need a place to stay until the boat gets ready to leave, it's going to take a week to get things ready and while we could stay at an Inn, were pretty sure with how many applicants from Emerald's village alone coming here would pretty much cause it to be filled to the brim… so… think we can rest at your place?" Pitou asked while she tilts her head a bit while Gon looks thoughtful while Emerald rubs his head a bit more.
Gon then smiles before he got to his feet.
"Sure, we would have to check with my Aunt Mito though." Gon said which confused Emerald a bit.
"Aunt Mito?, don't you live with your parents?" Emerald asked which caused Gon to chuckle a bit while he rubs the back of his head.
"Well I just live with my Aunt Mito, My dad is a Hunter and he pretty much abandoned me to do what he loves and well… I'm not sure who my mom is but as far as I'm concerned, Aunt Mito is the only one who I can think of when I picture a mom." Gon said which caused Emerald's eyes to widen a bit while Pitou blinks at what Gon said.
Though Emerald bowing deeply to Gon did surprise the kid.
"I am so sorry if I brought up bad memories or something!" Emerald said before he bows again and again at a rapid rate while Gon tries to get Emerald to stop.
"O-Oi it's no trouble, I have no memories at all of either so I'm fine you don't have to keep bowing like that." Gon said while Pitou laughed a bit at Emerald and his constant bowing.
It took Gon a couple minutes to get Emerald to stop before he and Gon laughed a bit nervously while Pitou giggles a bit and spoke up which got Emerald and Gon's attention when the tension that seemed to have been there had vanished.
"Anyway Gon, if you can speak to this Mito person, I think Emerald and I could stay at your place until the ship leaves?, you can even have Emerald and I help around with things around your place so were not freeloading." Pitou said which made Gon look thoughtful.
"Well like I said, we would have to check with my Aunt Mito, then there is my grandmother, her name is Abe Freecss." Gon said which made Pitou smile.
"Nice name, think you could take Emerald with you so he can help explain things?" Pitou said which confused Emerald.
"Uh… what about you Pitou?" Emerald asked which made Pitou smirk.
"Considering Gon caught a lot of fish here, I'm going to catch a few tasty morsels for myself so I maybe a few hours if they take awhile to bite." Pitou said which made Gon smile from the fish talk.
"Oh if you want I can show you a good fishing spot later, this one is good but its hard to catch fish in the afternoon." Gon said which made Pitou smile as she pats Gon on the head.
"Nice to know, but there is another reason… you see I'm curious about what a Foxbear is like up close and since this one… Kon was it?... is pretty calm even as we stand here and talk, he seems to like humans so before he leaves for good, I'm just wanting to get a close up look, I study medicine as well so this should be a good learning experience." Pitou said which made Gon look confused.
"Well… alright?... just don't take too long though, Kon's mate doesn't like humans… though for some reason you don't smell like one for some reason?" Gon said which surprised Pitou and Emerald.
"Pitou doesn't smell like a human?, what do you mean Gon?" Emerald said when he hoped Pitou wouldn't call herself a Chimera ant right now.
"Well I'm a magical beast if that helps, were a classification of beasts who have free will and intelligence, mean do humans have parts like these?" Pitou said when she removed her hat to show her cat ears which made Gon's eyes sparkle from the strange person in front of him before he gasped when he saw Pitou move her tail from around her waist when she had it act like a belt to keep people from wondering about her.
"WOW!" Gon said with an excited look on his face while pitou smiles at Gon's happy attitude before he looks at Emerald.
"Anyway I'll be here for a few hours so can you go with Gon to make sure things go well when I get back?, I'll catch quite a bit of fish for us to eat so you can say I'm getting lunch or dinner depending on the time on this island." Pitou said which caused Gon to grin before he moved to the edge where the thicker woods were that lead back to the village.
"Come on Emerald!, I'm sure Aunt Mito would be surprised to see you and Pitou if she heard about all of this." Gon said before he ran off which caused Emerald to chuckle a little as he starts walking away from Kon and Pitou.
"Well Pitou, see you later, I'll explore the island after I somehow deal with Gon's aunt, good luck with the Foxbear here." Emerald said before he ran after Gon which left Pitou with Kon while she and the foxbear were pretty silent for a few minutes before Pitou looks at Kon when she didn't hear Emerald or Gon near them.
"So… now that we are alone…" Pitou said while she gave the confused Foxbear a catlike smirk as she approached Kon.
"...why don't I see what makes you the ruler of the forest up close and personal." Pitou said with a smile on her face when she confused Kon more when Pitou starts to strip in front of the foxbear.
Though while Kon did pick up the scent of Pitou being turned on or something, Kon was more curious about Pitou's odd looking joints which made him lean down and sniff various parts of her body like her elbows and knees which made Pitou giggle when she lets Kon sniff her body for a bit more before she stepped back from Kon who just looked more confused than ever since he was pretty sure Pitou smelled like human… somewhat.
"Now then… let's see if this can get you worked up, I need to work up an appetite after all." Pitou said when she starts to rub her folds and she groans a bit when she could feel herself getting a bit wet while Kon watched what Pitou was doing.
A moment later, Pitou pulled her dripping fingers from her folds and moved to touch Kon's nose with said fingers which got Kon's nose covered in juices which caused Kon to blink a few times while he used his long tongue to lick his nose clean but the smell of the juices and the juice being swallowed started to get Kon excited which showed when his cock starts to get erect and appear from his sheath between his legs which made Pitou lick her lips when she saw it was around 15 inches long and 3 and 1/2 inches thick and from base to tip, it looked red in color.
"My my… so massive." Pitou said when she purrs a bit when she saw the massive dick get fully erect before her, unlike what most Humans would consider depraved or immoral, Pitou was only part human and part cat so her more animal like side came out a bit when it came to wild situations which resulted in her getting a bit of a wild look in her eyes when she moved to get on all fours in front of Kon who looks at Pitou as she crawled cat like towards his cock.
Kon watched as Pitou brought her head to his cock and sniffed it a few times and had a slight blush on her face when she licked the musk it produced before she starts to lick the tip of his cock which made Kon growl in a pleased way but Kon was wondering why Pitou was doing this, granted she didn't smell human fully, but couldn't she smell that he was already claimed?
Pitou however did notice the scent but didn't care when she just wanted to have fun right now which caused her to lick more of Kon's cock which showed how scratchy her tongue was and Kon growled more as his dick twitched from Pitou's licks.
Pitou then used a hand to lightly grip Kon's cock and starts to stroke it from base to tip which made Kon growl more in a pleased way and Pitou keeps on stroking Kon off while the Foxbear starts to forget about worrying about his mate for now, she was on the other side of the island and he could wash his body in the river to get rid of Pitou's scent.
Though Kon would have shuddered in fright if his mate ever found out about this but instead he shuddered in pleasure when Pitou opened her mouth and starts to suck on the head of Kon's cock while she used a hand to fondle his massive furry balls which made Kon pant a little when he could feel his orgasm getting closer as time went on.
Pitou then adjusts her body to get a better angle with sucking Kon's cock which allowed her to take a bit more into her mouth, about 5 to 6 inches and her tongue rubbed along the underside of Kon's shaft which made the foxbear growl more while his dick throbbed more and more as Pitou keeps on pleasing Kon.
A couple more minutes pass before Kon gave a low growl of content when he starts to unload his semen into Pitou's mouth who's eyes widen a bit at the amount before she tried to drink it down while making sure to stroke as much of Kon's cock as best she could.
Kon keeps on growling in a pleased way while he rides out his orgasm before he tapped off with a light pants and shuddered when Pitou keeps on licking his dick to clean it off before she pulled away with a grin and saw that he was still erect.
"Hehe, nyaot bad… hope you have more for the main course." Pitou said before she got to her feet and turned away from Kon much to his confusion before he saw Pitou get on all fours and raised her tail and Pitou looks back at the foxbear.
"Hehe… now… show me how intense you can get big guy." Pitou said with a slight purr while she shook her ass at Kon the foxbear which caused Kon to blink while he licks his maw when he got onto all fours and approached Pitou with his dick throbbing a few times.
Pitou purrs more when Kon got over her and used Pitou her tail to help aim Kon's dick to her folds and when Kon felt that, he pushed his hips forward with a slight growl and his cock went deep into Pitou's pussy which made Pitou groan loudly when Kon went very deep into her while her claws dug into the ground to keep her steady before Kon starts to thrust his hips and his dick bashed in and out of her folds.
"N-Nya!, t-talk a-about a wi-wild fucking d-dick!" Pitou moans out while some of her strength leaked out which caused her pussy to really squeeze Kon's cock which caused him to growl deeply while he fucked Pitou harder and harder as time went by.
For a few minutes, and Pitou grits her teeth while she could feel Kon thrusts his hips faster and harder, and as time went by, his dick throbbed more and more before Kon made a few more thrusts and pushed himself as deep as he could and threw his head back and roars loudly when he fired a surprising amount of foxbear semen into Pitou which made her cum hard on Kon's cock with a loud nya while she squirts on the ground while her pussy milked Kon's cock for all he had this round and thanks to how sturdy Kon was, his dick wasn't ripped off while his nuts worked to unload everything in him.
Kon keeps on cumming hard inside of Pitou before he tapped off 15 seconds later and with deep pants, pulled his cock free of Pitou's pussy which caused Pitou to groan as she felt Kon's leak from her abused but strong hole.
Kon then moved to lay on his back to pant for a moment while Pitou leaned up to stand on her knees and used a couple fingers to finger her pussy and pulled them free to show semen and juice covered fingers and she starts to lick the digits clean for a moment with a purr.
She then got to her feet and walked over to Kon and got his attention when she climbed onto his stomach which confused him since he thought he was done while Pitou gave a slightly fanged smirk when she could guess what Kon was thinking.
"Oh but I'm not quite done yet big boy, got one last hole to fill…" Pitou said while she used her tail to play with Kon's cock which caused the foxbear to growl weakly while his dick became erect again after a few minutes of playing.
Kon growls weakly which caused Pitou to giggle before she angles the cock to her asshole before Pitou moved her body back so that she takes the cock up her ass which made her groan quite a bit while she keeps on taking more and more inside of her.
Once she got quite a bit into her, Pitou starts to raise and lower her hips while she moans from the feeling of the dick in her ass pretty much reshaping her insides while Kon keeps on growling in a pleased way while he enjoyed Pitou's tight asshole.
For a bit, Pitou keeps on riding Kon's cock while she could feel her orgasm getting closer and closer to approaching which caused her to bounce much harder on the Foxbear's dick while Kon growls deeply as he could feel his own orgasm getting closer.
A few minutes later, around 3 minutes, Pitou made a few more drops before she took around 8 to 10 inches of Kon's cock into her ass before she came hard on it which caused her to climax from her pussy and into Kon's body while Kon roars loudly right before he blew another large load in Pitou's ass before he and Pitou ride out their orgasms while Pitou's stomach bloats a bit from the amount.
The two rides out their orgasms before Pitou and Kon tap off 15 or so seconds later and Pitou rests on Kon's stomach for a moment while she had a content look on her face.
"Nyahaha… talk about some good fun." Pitou said while she sat up and pulled herself off of Kon's cock with a groan and his semen flowed out of her ass a bit and onto Kon's dick before she got off the foxbear with a simple swift jump.
Pitou then stretched while her tail moved to and fro for a moment and Pitou sighs a bit with a smile on her face.
"Ahh, now I feel relaxed after a fucking like that, and that was a good one time thing to do with a friendly foxbear to boot… but now I'm a bit hungry so… time to get some fish!" Pitou said while she dived into the water nearby while Kon was just shocked at Pitou still having energy to go into the river like that while he himself was winded and could only lay there.
Nearly a minute later, and Pitou came out of the water with a large amount of fish seemingly floating next to her much to Kon's shock but in reality, Pitou was using her Puppeteer ability to have the fish come to her and she used the strings to make a faux net and when Pitou got to shore, she showed that her body was cleaned for the most part but would need an actual bath later for a really clean body.
Pitou then looks at Kon before she used her Puppeteer ability to use the strings to loop around Kon's dick which made him shudder when some kind of invisible force starts to stroke his cock and gets the semen off of it and flicked it onto the ground while more of the semen was flicked away from him and when Pitou saw that Kon was decently cleaned somewhat, she set up a campfire near the foxbear and starts to make some fish.
As a result, When Kon recovered, Pitou cooked a few pieces of fish and she sets one on a rock near Kon while she smiles at him before she dug into her own meal while Kon blinks when he barely managed to sit up and moved to eat his own meal, it wasn't the first time he ate cooked fish thanks to Gon but this was one of the first times that he enjoyed eating a fish so much in his life and when he was done, Pitou had cooked another fish and sets it in front of Kon while Pitou starts to cook her own fish while Kon went to eat his second fish.
A bit later, Pitou and Kon ate their fill and thanks to how dry Pitou got, she was able to dress herself without much issue and she managed to save some of the fish that she caught in large sack before she looks at Kon who napped nearby.
"Hehe, good luck with the misses Kon, doubt we will have fun again but if we do then hopefully you'll be more aggressive thanks to the extra fun that you and I have." Pitou said before she starts to leave the area, thankfully she used a special perfume that she made on a whim which could hide scents from pretty much anyone and used it on Kon so Pitou's scent wouldn't be known which would help Kon later so he wouldn't get in trouble with his mate.
Pitou then used one hand to hold a small notebook open while she jots down something as her Puppeteer's strings carried the bag of fish next to her while she jots down some stuff like how powerful a Foxbear was and how large the male she was with was but considering his lack of stamina, Kon was good only for short lays.
She closed the notebook and pockets it before she took the bag of fish from her Nen ability and starts to jump back to the village and thanks to her nose, she managed to locate where Gon and Emerald were and they were in a decently sized house a bit away from the town.
It looked to be around two, maybe three floors big on one side since the house looked like it was made on a hill and could have a basement out of sight.
Though Pitou didn't care when she went to the front door and knocked a few times and with her ears twitching a few times, she heard a pair of footsteps approaching the door before it opened to show that a beautiful orange haired woman had opened the door.
When the woman saw Pitou, she smiles a bit when she saw the ears on Pitou's head.
"Oh you must be Pitou that Gon and Emerald talked about, it's nice to meet you, I'm Mito Freecss." Mito said with a small smile on her face before the scene fades to black as Pitou shook Mito's hand and entered the house after she introduced herself.
