She couldn’t help but look him over. ‘Weird..’ Her amber eyes looked back to his blue ones. She was clearly frightened and hoped her eyes still wherent puffy from crying. “I’m Willow.” She said not moving. “What do you mean, what types of animals?”

Hawk gave her a confused look. "My... tribe. Do you not have one?" He asked, nose crinkling. He smiled as he heard her name. "Well... Willow. Lots of animals. Snakes, monkeys, tigers. Any animal scary enough to enter your bad dreams, you can find it here." he gave a sassy grin. "But I assure you, as long as you have that beloved knife in your hand, they should not give you any problems." Hawk scanned her face, and he saw her eyes were slightly puffy, and he decided not to mention it, save that she did end up stabbing him. "As for my tribe, I am the Shaman. We live alongside the animals of this island, and most of us will be very wary of you. Truly remarkable. A Human of the Ocean, yes... the ancestors have said nothing of your arrival, but I am sure they will any moment!"
Or not. I have seen nothing of this.. the tribe shall be in a uproar, the warriors will want to fight... I can not let that happen, who ever they are, I am sure they need help. He told himself, giving a cheerful smile to Willow.

"I don't want to go at it alone. I'd be picked off the first night with my leg the way it is. And you, homely? I laugh, you're cool! That's way more points than looks in my book." Weston gave her a goofy grin, eyes crinkling at the corners. "Don't disrespect the sushi! The Japanese have it going right, they're as healthy as heck!" He gave a fake gag. "Though I've leave healthy food to Californians, I much rather have a cupcake, smothered in icing, topped with sprinkles... that's what life's about right there..." he sighed exhaustedly, feeling lightheaded after laughing so hard.

"I came up with on the spot if I have to be honest." Janie tittered trying to get the image out of her head of how that pairing's child would probably look. "At least we can agree on that front I mean, guys aren't bad or anything but one girl and four guys that's a bunch of awkwardness waiting to happen." She mumbled the thought of the misunderstandings making her cringe. "Maybe not the first night...okay, yeah I was trying to be nice but totally you be dead meat after the first night if you were going it alone. Hey, hey Westie are you flirting with me?" She teased her tone breezy and carefree as she gave him a goofier smile completed with crooked teeth. "I will and can disrespect the sushi! You know my Grandmother is from Japan, so I think I have the right, Westie. However, you're right about the health thing though...never eat Cheetos in front of an old Japanese woman it always ends badly..." Janie mumbled thinking of all the times her Grammy had screamed, 'Anata wa orokana amerikahito!' at her.

Weston perked up slightly at Jane's voice, yet still exhausted. "true.. very true.." he muttered. He breezily waved a hand, much like he had seen Barbie do in one of his little cousin's Barbie movies he been forced to watch. "flirting with you? Maybe... I might be doing it and not realizing it, but more than likely yes... I am," he sighed, biting his bottom lip. "Japan? That's cool....My Dad's from Australia... I've seen a kangaroo.." Weston had a look of pure, pain induced delirium on his face, and he went cross-eyed trying to look at his nose. "My leg hurts... That broken bone goes numb thing is so not true." he whimpered.

(broken leg, a sunburnt ginger, and now delirious? What am i going to have him be next? A mariachi guitar player?)

Willow narrowed her eyes a bit but said nothing. ‘Why is everyone so perky around here.’ She opened her mouth, then closed it. The girl thought a bit more then opened her mouth again. “No. I don’t have a tribe. I have a family. My family is far from here, on a different continent. I don’t even know where I am...” she stopped herself from rambling. “Your a Shaman? Isn’t that like some sort of doctor?”

She didn’t wait for his reply before she stepped closer to him and stared him dead in the eye. “I was on a cruise ship...you probably don’t know what that is..” she tried to think of how to explain it. “Cruise Ships are like boats you go hunting on but much MUCH bigger...they hold thousands of people that go on the ship to have fun....” she paused again as her voice cracked.

“Anyway...” she continued. “The ship sunk. Thousands of people where on the ship...thousands meaning A LOT of people. So far only I only found a couple other people alive from the boat. There where children on the boat...family’s..” she cleaned her throat again. “These other people...and me, we can’t make it back to our family’s, our family’s are like your tribe. We don’t know where we are-and we are hurt.”

She gestured to her cuts and scratches. “But the other people are hurt severely. One has a broken leg, another has a deep gash on her arm. I tried to stop the blood flow by ripping off some of my shirt to tie it around the cut. Can you help us? If you do I promise I can repay you...I can get you food or-something, anything just please help them.” She said looking up again. She didn’t realizie she was hugging herself until she put her hands to her sides and looked at the man in front of her.

(This is her outfit (just the outfit not the purse and such) But the bottom of the shirt is ripped and there are rips everywhere and such

Hawk smiled. "A cruise ship does not sound like very much fun to me. And I am very sorry that you lost so many people, it is a very hard thing to get over." he gave his shoulder a light shift, going from one foot to the other. His blue eyes sparked with interest as she mentioned the hurt members of her group. "Your friends are injured? I am most likely not supposed to help... but yes. Take me to them, and I will help." he reached through the bush for what herbs he could reach, and grabbed his canteen. "If you need fresh water, there is a spring in a clearing nearby. It is a bit of a walk, but you can usually make the journey in a half day. I will show it to you sometime. But not right now, we need to get your friends healed." He pointed in the direction of the beach. "I assume they are at the beach?" He asked. "Oh and, Willow? A Tribe is not just your family, it is a group that you care about deeply. So I am just going to call your friends your tribe, because that is what is most familiar to me." He added. He gazed gently at Willow, his expression one of understanding. "It is going to be hard, knowing your families are alive yet so far away. I hope the ancestors bless you," he muttered.

Willow nodded, she picked up the sticks and rocks she got and lead the way, walking rather quickly. “Thank you.” She said very quietly before they reached the beach. “Guys?” She asked not shouting, but loud enough so they could here her.

“I found someone. To help you.” She looked to the people on the beach and to Hawk. “This is Hawk, he is a Shaman....” ‘Feels Weird to say on the tongue..’ She nodded to Hawk and then dropped the supplies and looked around where to start making the fire. She ignored the grumbling of her stomach. ‘I need to make the fire first.’

(Notice how she doesn’t call them her friends.)

Janie nodded starting thread tenderly through Weston's mop of red hair with her uninjured hand. "Westie, how about you take a little nap? Considering your fair skin it plausibly won't be the best choice for you to sleep here so how about you and me walk over to where the treeline is and find a nice shady place for you to take a snooze?" Her voice was gentle and with a maternal quality to it as she tried to get him up. "I know it hurts, Weston, but let's just focus on getting you out of the sun and to someplace cool, okay? I heard ginger is a great pain remedy and I'm sure a tropical island like this is just covered in it!" She mused trying to stay on the bright side as she continued to use her Girl Scout knowledge. That was until she heard Willow's voice and snapped her head back seeing a strange looking man, "O-o-okay, hi Mr. Hawk...I'm Janie." She said before seeing Willow with the materials needed for making a fire all ready, "Oh! Willow, let me! I learned how to make a fire in Girl Scouts."

(Janie will forever always be mentioning her Girl Scout training.)

Willow blinked at Janie. “You should focus on getting Weston to the shade. We don’t need him to be hurt more than he already is. I’ll make the fire.” She said pretty bluntly. She picked up the supplies and moved it closer towards the forest/jungle area but not too close to start a forest/jungle fire.

She started making a circle with the stones after she found a place where the rain wouldn’t hit it. After piling all the sticks and making a little tent like structure in the middle of the fire she started adding dry leaves and moss and started attempting to make a fire.

Even though she was failing miserably she was to stubborn to let Janie help her. After a while she accidentally cut herself in the hand with the rock that she sharpened. “Shi-“ She hissed then whispered the rest of her curses (a thing she does when something doesn’t go her way-she speaks almost all of the curses she learned over the years.)

She held her bleeding hand and groaned. She was still was going to make this fire one way or another. She grabbed her knife and looked at where the sun was positioned. ‘Maybe if I could reflect the sunlight off of this..’ She doubted her idea but started trying nonetheless, ignoring the pain from her hand she held the knife to where the sun would relfect off it.

Willow prayed that this idea would work. She whimpered as her hand hurt more but didn’t want to move as she saw that her plan just might work.

Weston said nothing as he let Jane lead him over to the shade, glancing curiously at the so called 'shaman' following them. "Thanks Jane, and you too Willow!" he said louder, allowing his voice to carry to the girl. He glared at Hawk. "You better not cut my leg off," he grumbled.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Hawk smiled, shaking his head. "Oh no, It will not come to that, I can assure you of that. Hmm, it seems to be a clean break, a splint should do you just fine." He grabbed two sticks, wrapping them around the pale boy's leg with a piece of fabric from his pocket. "And...Jane? Might I ask to see your arm while your friend is getting the fire going?" He held out his canteen. "It is fresh water, and I can tell you that it's safe to drink." he gestured to the pouch. "Go ahead." he said, more firmly.
__________________________________________________ ________________
Weston settled in a more comfortable position. "You can drink first, Jane. I don't mind waiting." he said, scowling at the shaman. "Doing great Willow! Keep it up! It should burst into flames soon!" he called. @Tavvi

"O-o-okay." Janie mumbled taking off the d.i.y bandage to reveal a deep gash on her forearm and taking a few steps closer to Hawk, "I'm fine, I really am just a little scratch nothing major. And Westie, you can drink first I'm not even thirsty." She fibbed, biting her lower lip as the cut stung and tears pickled her the corners of her eyes. Janie started to get more and more troubled thinking of her Grammy back home and how ashamed she would be of her for not doing her part...she had to do her part. "I-I-- gotta go!" She then yelped deciding to run into the jungle and hopefully find supplies that would be useful to the other survivors.
