The lake seemed to morph into a pool of fire as the sun began to set beyond the bountiful mountains to the west. Urctos gazed solemnly into its surface, eyes shimmering as his mind was somewhere else other than there. His scar was slowly starting to heal and it was now a dull pink zig-zag rimmed with yellow pus. It was still infected a tad, and he hardly bothered about it anymore.. Oddly, he really couldn't feel the pain at all, not even an ache, but when annoyed, agony seemed to pulse in his face.
Tilting his head up, Urctos stared blankly from across the lake. "Why did I come... here?" He shook his skull as he suddenly felt light-headed. "I-I think I'm still... tired or something...."
A twig snapped behind him. His ear cocked to the back towards the noise.. It probably was some animal coming for a drink. He creakily rose to his feet and reluctantly began to walk away...

OOC: Hey Urctos! Long time no see! Mind if I join?
BIC: Walking through the forest like a shadow, Ken'ichi pads toward the lake to refresh his throat, stepping on a twig along the way. He reaches the lake, lowers his head and begins to drink, feeling the cold beverage going down his throat. As he finishes drinking, the cub raises his head and looks around, watching a few birds here and there flying around...

OoC: Hey Ken'ichi. Glad to see you again! The sound of a tongue lapping against water made him curious. As he craned his neck back, a familiar scent filled his nose. It was that bear cub Ken'ichi, his friend. Urctos turned fully and inched a bit closer.He blinked his wounded eye a couple of times, his vision on that side strangely becoming blurry and it was hard to see the cub. "Ken'ichi... is that you?"

Ken'ichi's ears perks up as a familiar voice echoes through his ears, "Ken'ichi... is that you?"
The black cub turns to see a black figure in the distance. "Uh...Yeah, that's me."
Ken'ichi squints his eyes to see who it was, though the scent already gave it away, he had to make sure. Ken'ichi's eyes widen a little and he pads closer to the black bear in the distance. Ken'ichi realizes who he is.
"Urctos!"

Urctos allowed a tiny smile to appear. "It's nice to see you again..." He kept a steady pace as he lumbered closer to the cub.
The bear's eyes glanced left and right as if doing a quick search along his surroundings. He remembered seeing more bears around Ken'ichi, they were his other friends. Sniffing the air briefly, Urctos stopped close to the cub and stared out across the shimmering waters ahead once more. Birds twittered and gave their calls and from somewhere in the forest behind him, he heard creatures shifting through the undergrowth... in other words, it was quite peaceful. Urctos turned to the trees behind them, then back to Ken'ichi.
"It's pretty quiet here..." he mumbled.

"It's nice to see you again..." Urctos said as he pads steady to Ken'ichi.
It's nice indeed, Ken'ichi has missed seeing Urctos, one of the bear cub's first friends after the incident that doomed his family. And if it wouldn't have been for Urctos' friendship, Ken'ichi wouldn't have stayed in the forest.
"It's pretty quiet here..." Ken'ichi heard Urctos mumble.
"Yeah...It is..." Ken'ich replies as he looks around, "This place is always peaceful like this, it's my favorite spot in the whole forest."
Ken'ichi looked around at the beautiful lake, then back at Urctos, "So, where have you been all this time?"

Urctos shuffled from paw to paw at the question. "I've been... places, I guess."
Most of the time he just wandered and never really took track of where he was going. He just walked wherever he felt was the path that was the easiest. Just being there all by himself was the most difficult... no one to talk or laugh with.... Urctos was glad he found Ken'ichi before he was about to go crazy with the lonliness he was feeling. His eyes glimmered a faint orange as he glanced at minnows dancing in the shallows, then returned to the cub.
"I've never seen this place before. But... I think I'm... glad I did."

Ken'ichi smiles as he hears that Urctos is glad of finding this place, the beautiful lake... Ken'ichi looks at Urctos and immediatly notices the infected scar.
"Geez, that wound doesn't look so good," Ken'ichi says with a worried tone, "why don't we treat it before it gets worse?"

OOC: I'm not sure Kia...maybe it was deleted for a particular reason? I don't know. I didn't get the chance to see it. The only solutions I can come up with; One of our mods deleted it because it was either: Off topic Didn't make sense Was very very small and did not hardily take the proper influence of the RP (1 or 2 sentance posting sometimes causes that you know...) Or maybe YOU deleted it on accident. Who knows? Like I said, I didn't see it

OoC: That's what I was wondering about... I thought you deleted it on purpose... so I just continued on after Ken'ichi. You can jump back in again if you'd like, though.
-
The cub's smile shifted to a worried gaze as he noticed Urctos' seething wound. Trying to turn his cheek slightly, the larger bear listened as Ken'ichi began to speak again.
"Geez, that wound doesn't look so good," he cringed with a twinge of anxiety for Urctos, "why don't we treat it before it gets worse?"
"Uhm... but.." The bear's face went tight with pain as a dull throb felt like it went through his skull. He bit his lip as an attempt to dull the sudden pang and looked down at the cub. ".... Okay... I guess..."

OOC: Yeah, I thought the same thing.
BIC: Ken'ichi gave a relieved smile as Urctos agreed to get the wound treated.
"OK, wait for me here while I go and get some herbs for it."
With that, Ken'ichi turns and pads into the forest, he pads through some bushes and around the trees. Over some stumps and into a clearing. There Ken'ichi found some blue herbs, which it's known by this cub for its juice for killing infections and healing wounds faster than ordinary herbs. This is why these herbs are rare to find, as many animals tend to look for these herbs more frequently than ordinary herbs. Ken'ichi grabs some of the blue herbs and pads back to Urctos, hoping the bear wouldn't hesitate in using them.
"Here we go." Ken'ichi says as he returns with the herbs.

"Here we go." Ken'ichi arrived with the healing herbs, laying them out before the bear. Urctos wrinkled his snout and took a few small whiffs of these strange plants and berries. They looked useful..... He glanced towards the cub.
"I hope they'll work..." he mumbled, rubbing his scar with a paw. Urctos gritted his teeth at the searing pain, but kept silent as he continued to stare at Ken'ichi.

Ken'ichi sees the bear's pain from the scar, he decides better now than later.
"OK Urctos, just lay down."
As Urctos does so, Ken'ichi grabs the herbs and pads closer to the scar, he huddles them together and pops the berries to let the juice fall on the herbs. He then places an herb on the wound, with the berry juice facing the scar. The herbs stick, thanks to the berries' juice. Ken'ichi does the same to the other herbs, slowly putting them together to cover the scar. After a little bit, Ken'ichi is finished with his job, the berry juice should seep into the wound and cleanse the wound, killing infections and healing it, though the process will be slight painful.
"There, just keep it on and the infection will go away, and the scar would be healed more."

Picking a claw around the treated scar, the bear gave a gentle sigh of relief... much better. He sniffed the air once more, then looked to Ken'ichi again.
"Where are all your other friends...?" Urctos questioned, cocking his head to the left slightly. Last time he had talked with him, the cub had introduced him to many different bears. It scared the bejeezes out of him... but it was pretty nice to know other bears besides himself and Ken'ichi. He didn't remember most of their names... but he could think of what some of them looked like.
