After the rescue....

Luckily, it's not too dangerous in this area. Avalon takes off with his spear and knife and is gone for a good bit, hunting for anything that might be unlucky enough to come across his path. He returns as the sun is finally starting to sink lower in the sky, two small rabbit like creatures already cleaned and ready to be roasted. He made sure to get them ready out of Josh's view out of respect for the healer.
When Henry returns, he's got a large stack of wood he's managed to chop to pieces with the hand-axe he brought. He's hoping it should be enough to keep them going through the night. He's got the fire going, with other pieces off to the side to be fed to the flames as needed.
"We'll probably want to sleep in shifts," Henry suggests. "That way, we've got someone awake in case of predators, and keep the fire going. I don't mind taking the middle shift."
Josh is gone the longest of the trio. He stopped to enjoy the feel of the planet, heal a broken tree, and very carefully examine the plants. When he returns, he's got an armful of edible plants and even some berries.
"Okay, Henry. I can take the first shift," he volunteers. "Make mine double too. I can last longer without sleep."
Ava nods to what Henry says, and leaves his kill with the other teen as he ventures just into the brush to find what he is looking for.. sticks about an inch wide and long enough to stake the rabbit-things on. When he returns he starts to ready their meal for cooking, his eyes turning between the two others. "Alright.. if that's what you guys want. I am usually up early any way so it won't be hard for me to get up a few hours before dawn and take the last shift." he agrees.
Soon he has the rabbits angled over the fire and settles down next to it, his wings pressed against his spine. "So.. here we are.." he says with a small little smile. "I almost miss Rock Band."
"There's something to be said for camping, and getting away from Rock Band for a bit," Henry notes. He glances at Josh. "I mean, as long as you can go home afterward... right?" He leans back, looking up to the sky.
Josh blushes at the mention of Rock Band. "Well...I can still sing if you guys want me to..." he offers bashfully. "And yeah...having a home to go back to makes things good." |
