Welcome to Gaia! ::

Frost left his cold snowy forest to see what else he could find and learn. He had seen so much ice and snow over the years that it had crept into his heart. Frost was now in a much warmer place with all different new scents he had never smelled before. He looked around at all the trees and things that were there. The plants were all new and he touched them gently wanting to see how they would feel. Some more soft and some weren't so soft. He walked for a long time and was now by a swamp. But he had no clue where he was. So there was a swamp here and yet he had no clue what else was around here. It was so unfamiliar and he had no clue where in the world be was.

He stayed calm and calculating as he tried to think about what he could do. There had to be something that he could do. He sat down as he thought.

Frost sat there as he thought and listened to all of the sounds this swamp had. There were some very nice sounds but none of them helped him figure out where he was. His tail swished as he heard a sound that didn't seem to fit in with the other sounds. He wasn't sure what it was but it really didn't fit in there. He frowned as he tried to figure out what it meant. He batted at a leaf that sat there by his paw. He sighed and huffed not in a mood to be lost. He really hated being lost and wished he wasn't lost. He spun as he heard another sound.

He bared his teeth in a snarl and growled. He saw the black fume standing there and kept his teeth bared. He didn't know if this was friend or foe. But if this was an enemy then he would fit and keep himself safe. But if it wasn't then he would relax and not harm anyone.

Frost looked at the dark fume. "Well someone just snuck up on me so yeah wrong side of the swamp. Nope no thorn in my paw."

He felt something watching him and stilled. He had no clue what it was but he could feel the hungry eyes on him. He looked over at the black fume. He saw the wide eyes and slowly began to walk forward. Being very careful to move slow and not look like prey. "Yes I value my life. I'm not sure if I trust you or not. You've done nothing to show a lack of danger or hostility."

He heard a crunch behind him and walked more then he burst into a sprint and avoided the jaws that tried to snap around him. He ran over to the black fume and winced as a thorn slammed up into his paw. He looked back at the green creature that looked at him as if he where lunch. He growled at it.

He looked over at the crocodile. "So that's her name?" He yanked the thorn out of his paw and licked the wound clean. "And you'd have to catch me to feed me to the crocodile." He smirked and kept cleaning the wound.

He continued to watch the crocodile. Nope he would not be dinner or any other meal to the crocodile. He looked back at the black fume his hackles still up a bit. He wasn't used to being around others much. "I came down from the snow just to see what else was around. I wanted a change of pace from the cold and snow. And this isn't the worst place I've come across on my travels." He shrugged "Alright well that's good to know."

Frost nodded as he heard the reason for the name. It made sense. He looked at the crocodile more and arched a brow. "That old?" He rolled his eyes at the comment about observing. "I'm used to paying attention for ambush predators. I've got good senses to not get caught by things." He nodded. "Thanks. You need them to stay alive."

He listened to what this black fume had to say about snow. "It's not miserable. I like it a lot. It's cold and fun. It gets wet at times but wet is just fine. I don't think it's miserable." He stood there licking his cut more as he heard all of the questions. "Well you are a very inquisitive little fume. Careful you know what they say about curiosity." He wasn't sure he wanted to talk about his travles with some stranger. "And no I didn't have to eat a cactus." That sounded so silly to him.

He shrugged and carefully put his paw down. "Sure I could eat something."

Frost tilted his head. That sounded interesting he hadn't had they before and he did want to try it. Maybe they would taste really good. Or maybe they would taste bad. He wasn't sure. "Sounds good. If you are willing to share then I would love to have some. But if you don't want to share I can always go hunting to see what I can catch."

He saw his deflate and felt a twinge of guilt. Maybe he would tell this guy some stories. Maybe. He wasn't sure yet. He didn't know this guy well enough for that. He looked around this swamp. Maybe they could swap stories. That sounded like it would be fair.


"Nice to meet you Drako. I'm Frost." He followed the other fume to the cache of food that there apparently was here. "Plump is always good and clever prey is far more fun to catch that slow dim prey." He chuckled and watched this guy.

Frost smiled and chuckled. "Oh? Why would you be worried about a complete stranger?" He walked over and watched the black fume wondering what was up with this guy? He was so strange. "Yeah I've seen all different kinds of things here that you can eat."

He looked down at the rat that was nudged over to him. "Thank you very much." He nodded his head. "Ok I promise to never eat the bottom dwelling fish. That doesn't sound like something I would want to eat." He watched the guy scrunch up his face.

Frost looked over at Drako as he heard that and wrinkled his nose. "No I've been really hungry before but it takes a lot for me to eat something I know tastes bad." He smiled. "I'll stay clear of those fish."

He chuckle and looked over at the dark fume. He sighed and waited for all the questions to be asked. "No I had no pack, no mate, and no family there. All I left behind was my territory and my friend the rabbit." He laughed and nodded his head. "Oh is a girl what you want for a mate? And yeah I can see why some wouldn't want to live here and with that crocodile."

He tilted his head. "Wonder why she hasn't eaten you yet." He winked at the guy to show he was only teasing.
