Dash turned to Lilik with a smile. Dash could tell she wanted to say something but didn't really want to ask. Things were getting a little awkward so maybe he should be the one to start a conversation. Dash had never seen a Mammoth before in his whole life but it was always nice to meet someone new, " Hi, my name's Dash and you are"? I have never seen eleaphant's in this part of the forest before" Dash said getting a little bit confused since Mammoth's and Eleaphants were kinda related and him not really knowing what a Mammoth was.
Dash smiled as he saw Koda run past him. This was the first time he had seen a cub his age for miles. He'd have to meet him later. He turned back to Lilliak with a smile.

Kenai laughs. "Well, excuse me! You could let me know when you're going to hitch a ride, too."
He's glad to see the mammoths already making conversation with the locals, though he can't make out what they're saying. Some of the nearby bears are looking at them like they're a trio of talking trees, but as soon as someone spots Kenai, their confused murmuring takes on a more understanding, amused tone. There's some pointing and laughing, but not of the unfriendly sort -- they mean well, anyway. Someone shouts, "Welcome back, Keno!"
"Eheh..." Kenai waves back awkwardly, but he's saved by the bell when Koda challenges him to a race. "Whuh--hey! That's not...!"
He takes off after Koda, glancing back at the mammoths a little guiltily. He notices a small, black-and-white shape near Lilik -- a cub? -- but it's too late to turn back and say hello right now. Kenai needs to watch where he's going...

((All right, here I go! I'm sort of changing my character's past a bit for this RP.))
The sounds of small paws pattering on the muddy soil are the only things this pair of ears can hear. For days he has only walked, never stopping for food. But he's growing hungry, and berries and some roots could only hold him for so long. Luckily, he remembers the stories of the Salmon Run. Unfortunately, he has never been to it before. If everything had gone as planned, this would've been his first time attending it.
The young bear narrowed his eyes a bit as he stepped into the sun, his black fur riddled with dirt and mud. He took a sigh and sniffed the air, the scent of water and a few bears caught within his nostrils. Other bears...He's been told to keep a distance from them...No, why should he? He's a grizzly bear, a strong one! He shouldn't be scared! It's not like this is their territory or anything! He hasn't seen any slash marks on the trees or any markings, this territory is free.
His stomach complained for food. He knew he couldn't ignore it any longer. Taking a deep breath the young cub continued his way forward, the sound of water running and bears fishing filling the air. Salmon...His mouth was watering already...

Lilik turns as the young bear introduces himself, glad to be making friends so soon. Lylo, on the other hand, frowns "We're not elephants, we're mammoths...elephants are...bald" he finds for a way to explain the difference.
Lilik giggles, "Hi Dash, I'm Lilik and this is my twin brother Lylo and the bigger mammoth over there is our older brother Miko" she indicates to where Miko is scrounging some of the greens from the side of the river to see if they taste good.

"Wow , you have a big family" Dash said. He felt a little embarrassed about calling them eleaphants. "I'm really sorry about that mistake I have just never reallt seen a mammoth before. It's really nice to meet the 3 of you." Dash said.

Koda darts through the trees and up the rocky hill as fast as he can, narrowly avoiding the other bears trying to get up the slope as well.
"HA!" Koda gloats as he reaches the top of the waterfall before Kenai. "I win again, slowpoke!" He giggles, turning to watch Kenai clamber up the slope. "Hurry up, Kenai, there's almost a line!" He calls out, indicating the other bears coming up the slope. "I'd like to go down at least once before we have to hibernate!" Koda mocks an exasperated sigh and rolls his eyes playfully.

"That one doesn't count," Kenai protests as he struggles up the slope. "I wasn't ready! Try running a fair race if you don't want to get stuck waiting for me."
Grumbling all the way, he reaches the top and gets in line beside Koda. As they near the edge, he stops his pouting; something in the distance seems to catch his eye. "Huh. Now that is a lot of salmon."
Should Koda fall for the ruse, Kenai will be poised and ready to push him over the falls -- otherwise, well, he'll look rather silly.

Ears twitched to the sound of two bears racing. The cub was finding himself dangerously close to the run, and catching sight of two bears, a big one and a little one, running closer to his hiding spot. Great, if they're going to finish on the rivers ending at the waterfall he won't be able to catch anything. A low growl escaped his throat, why do other bears always have to get in the way.
They apparently were in the middle of a race. Father and son? Regardless, it brought back a stinging memory to the black cub hiding in the bushes. His eyes narrowed and his muscles tensed. If only he...Bah, what does it matter now. The cub turned to leave, maybe find another place to catch his salmon, away from other bears. But he couldn't help but to look back at them...The apparent happiness between them...

Lilik giggles, "That's ok, it was an easy mistake to make" she admits, "wasn't it Lylo..." she turns to her twin. "Yeah" the calf shrugs, "Sorry for getting all offended by it, also".
"So, you been here before?" Lylo asks Dash.

"Well no ya see I'm not really from around here. Ya see it's a long story but I am originally from Canada. I traveled here when my parents d..................... so tell me more about your family. " Dash said changing the topic real quickly.

"Yeah, well, you shoulda been paying attention!" He tries to excuse hims unfair advantage.
As Kenai mentions food Koda rolls his eyes at him. "You're always thinking of your stomach!" His own hunger getting the better of him, he stands up on his hind legs, the top of his head about even with Kenai's, and looks in the direction Kenai's looking.
"Where? I don't see any salmon."

Lilik is a bit thrown by the change to a request on telling about her family, but not unwilling to give facts, since it's not directly related to having to tell about her parents death...yet.
"Well..." the calf starts, "It's just me and my brothers, Lylo and Miko, of our family left; We have a herd, they're off feeding last we left them, but nearby enough to get back to, we're just taking a break from...well being smothered in by them".
"Yeah" Lylo adds, "Instead we tagged along with those two" he indicates Koda and Kenai, "to escape a crowd of mammoths just to come hang out around a crowd of bears" he grins. "Uh...I don't mean that wrongly of course, just making a funny observation" he shrugs, afraid Dash might mishear what he just said.
"We didn't really escape a crowd, but still I think this crowd is easier to deal with".

Kenai ignores that little gibe; he is hungry. At least the ruse seems to be working. He leans closer. "You don't see it? Look, it's right...there."
Grinning, he gives Koda a push, then jumps in himself. The water is soothing, the speed is exhilarating -- and the satisfaction of pulling one over on Koda makes it all the better.

"We didn't really escape a crowd, but still I think this crowd is easier to deal with". "You are friends with those 2 bears? Ya think you could introduce me?" Dash didn't really trust a lot of people so it was hard for him to say this but, since these mammoths seemed to be the first friends he ever had he sighed and began. "The truth is My parents were killed by Hunters. That's the real reason I traveled her the forest I grew up in, in Canada was soon taken over by Hunters. My best friend, my parents all of them gone. I needed to find an escape because if I didn't I would have been next"Dash said wiping a tear away from his eye quickly, He sighed again."That's why I changed the topic so quickly I don't really enjoy bringing up that memory."He said

Lilik and Lylo frown, they completely understand where Dash is coming from with not wanting to bring up the topic of his parents, and friends and whatever he had of a herd it seems...
"Y-yeah, we understand..." Lilik says, "we recently lost our parents too, it's why Miko's all we got to watch out for us now". Lylo nods.
"But don't worry, I'm sure you'll make friends quickly here too" Lilik trys to cheer their new friend up, "after all, you already have us".
"Yeah, and come on, we'll introduce you to Kenai and Koda too" Lylo adds, also wanting to cheer Dash up. He starts over to where the two brothers have just jumped into the water.
"Hey Mr. Kenai!" he calls, "we made a friend with a new comer who wants to meet the two bears we already told him about".
