Akela waits outside of Deja's tent.
"Gezz did that go out the way you planned"
"shut up Kesha, I got... distracted"
"what's you're plan around this girl huh, I didn't peg you for liking the ladies"
"okay one I don't what ladies but are I like women"
"Yea that's what ladies are, but wait its not a good idea to sleep with someone we just met and we need to be good with these people"
"right and sex is the only way I know how to be close, so here we go round 2"
Akela walks into Deja's tent seeing a fairly nice setup her tent made of blue cloth lining the floor are hides of various beast Akela looks around the room Akela head deep in a box looking for food Akela would assume When she jolts head still in the chest she panics unintentionally waving her ass around.
"WHO WHO, Who said you can come in" Freaking out she struggles to get out of the crate. Akela scans the room like she did nothing wrong and she not even their. she seas a weapons rack but only with spears on the left side over to the right with her head in the chest is her sleeping bag and in the center is a chair with a sheet over it
"that kinda" Kesha says slowly says as they look at the chair because it dose seem to have odd shape.
"you need to leave!, NO ONE is allowed in my room" Deja suddenly behind Akela grabs her covering her eyes and moving her to the exit she walked out holding Akela.
"what was that" Kesha says.
"How dare you I said to wait out here" Deja lets go of her so they can face each other Deja looks at Akela blushing with arms crossed staring sternly waiting for an answer. "well" she starts tapping her foot.
"you got this Akela because I'm pretty good at"
"You're the prettiest girl I've ever seen"
"Really" "Really" Kesha and Deja surprised
"out of everyone from my village I've known none are part of you're world, I just don't get it how did you, where did you come from" Akela takes a few steps closer to Deja
"That's something"
"oh my gosh THANK YOU"
"no one"
"I dident even know you could see me"
"ever told me before so thank you"
"lick no of all time you choose to confess"
"for the complement but"
"but sista I don't mess with girls unless the price or drink is good"
"we should eat something before the circle"
"so" "so if you okay" "if you're okay"
Akela punches the side of her head.
"AHH are you okay"
(-20HP)
Kesha falls over in the mind scape like an earthquake hit she fall on her butt.
"Ahh shit what just hit us"
Akela's head down some blood starts falling down, blood drips to the floor.
"WHY DID YOU DO THAT " Deja runs and holds up Akela's head looking at her face
"tch ehh this looks bad" Akela leans in trying to kiss her while she's close making no signals, she kisses Deja, She freaks out and backing her head up holding her away at the shoulders. "I can't be with you" she says staring at Akelas lips, strong eyes and wild hair with a blonde strip, blood flows down her face dripping off her lips like cherry lipstick when Akela pulls her by the hips and kisses her again taking the wind out of Deja then after a few seconds of her eyes wide open she stops breaking of her lips slowly opening her deadpan and cold eyes.
"I'm going to the circle" she leaves the both of them with red stained faces. Deja whips her face not taking her eyes off of Akela as she walks away.
Akela on her way back use her arm to whip of the blood. "well that was a way" Akela looks forward smiling arms behind her head "do you think it worked" Kesha asks, "oh yea" "really a done dadaa"
"shur what ever that is" "oh one more thing DONT HIT ME BITCH"
"well don't interrupt when girls are talking"
they make it the big tent basically the size and structure of a larger sweat house, Akela draw the curtain and enters.
"whoa" "cool" they see the massive inside of the place with pillars all around and the ground covered with red blankets at the center theirs a big circle of pillows and people all around moving caring supplies and bottles some talk to Yanon who sits on a pillow telling them what to do.
"Oh Akela you're her every one looks at her but they smile "great dose that mean we can start early"
"surprise ruined so go put every thing outside, Akela come over here dear, tell me what happen with Deja were is she"
Akeal walks over standing in the crowd
"oh she went to the bathroom" "Classic" Kesha mutters
"well she'll have to show up we never miss a Circle epically when we have guest"
"But what if she misses out"
"OHH that's not possible a Tajal always when to show up and always do"
AAHHHHWOOOOOOO AWWWWWWWWOOOOOOHHHH First Chief Yanon starts howling then everyone of the Tajal start howling together, Akela stands their silent next to everyone howling
"God damn their loud come Akela Howl with them"
Akela rolls her eyes and give a rather unenthusiastic howl "Ahwooooo" stopping before everyone else.
"Okay everyone lets circle up Akela you can sit next to me"
"O--kay?"
Everyone holding stuff head out as the others come in it takes less than two minutes for everyone to sit down when Deja comes in last nervous her hands together in front of her twiddling her thumbs.
"Deja I have you're spot saved" Deja walks across the talkative room with her head down to her set
Akela looks at her blushing the whole time tell she sits down and Yanon stands up.
"WELCOME ALL FAMILY TO THE CIRCLE" everyone cheers as the y sit next to their wolves.
"This circle is special because for the first time we have a guest so the after party will be extra special' so with out further delay" two people from the circle walk to the middle of the circle were a bunch of stones lie in a closed of pit carrying a bunch of big leafy branches setting them on top when on woman come with a bucket of water when she pours it out steam comes up filling the room.
"Ahh dont worry Akela it's just the start" Yanon empty's his pipe refilling it and passing too Akela.
"Smoke it, It's our peace pipe"
he pulls what seems to be a match but not he squeezes' it and suddenly fire poofs at the top of the wick. Akela looks around the pipe like a child enthralled Yanon reaches over to lit the bowl for her she puts it up to her lips.
"This piece has been in the Tajal Clan for ages" Akela inhales deep "its said we grow close sharing our expect with everyone its touched like it's alive remembering every connection its help make" Akela still inhaling "Dang Is this not you're first time" Akelas spits all over the place coughing out the smoke. "Ahhh no" she continues to cough hard.
"Fantastic Akela you're family now so now pace the Peace pipe to you're brothers and sister"
"OH yea let me do that" She hands the pipe to the person left of her "This two" she grabs the match from Yanon and hands it over.
"YES everyone lets really start the circle" from his side Yanon pulls out a hand full of rolled up cigarettes' and ask to pass them around, one at a time a near every other person was holding a lit joint and then as the room becomes hazy with steam everyone starts singing and chanting in rhythm but fun and not forced their just filling the room with noise when Akela begins to feel something she sees the smoke in the air curl and wind she feels really good and calm she leans back on her arms.
"shit akela are you feeling this" "hmm a little but my tolarance is pretty highhhhhh, high oh my gosh im starting to feel it" in Akela's mind scape clouds start to form around the floor and pass by like their in the sky.
Before she knows a joint was passed to her. "Shit Akela don't be bitch and smoke" Akela takes a small puff choking on that alone and she passes it.
"Woah this is not good I've never felt like this" "whoa its you're first time smoking" Kesha bust out laughing "Ahh shit then this will be great"
hit after hit smoking in that giant circle Akela is far past high, the room is so smoke and steam filled you cant see you're hand five feet from your face everyone is sweating and still singing and taping along hearing all the dogs painting hell Akela is Paining like a dog. When things start to get weird Akela suddenly feels a cold breeze hit her and all the smoke seems to be moving past her like she going really fast through it but she's sitting still. "Whoa what's haaappppening" "HAHA this is so coool" They bith feel like their moving a Hundred miles per hour in a car their faces warped by the force. "ISSSSSSS THIIIISSSSS GOOOOONA STOP" the smoke parts to Akela reveling a wide open sky with clouds she looks down to see theirs no floor just more clouds and sky honestly kind of of wet she attempts to stand up trying very hard but manages after looking like a new born deer.
"Wow what is this place" "not my first words but close"
Akela pauses because this time Kesha's voice feels different like she's really behind Akela, Looking behind her Akela see a beautiful black woman standing before her naked.
"Holy shiiit" Akelas eyes grow wide and smoke comes out her nostrils "who are you"
"What don't you remember my voice, I'm Kesha" Busty and beautiful with long swirling hair that covers one of her eyes.
"Hollly SHHHHIIIIIIIT, you're real!"
Akela smacks Akela upside the head "YOU STILL DIDNT THINK I WAS REAL"
"HEehekaha" Akela starts cracking up "oh course I knew you where really but this is something very different" They walk around each other looking each other down. "You're enjoying this aren't you"
"What can I say you're body is insane" "Yes I know" they stick out their hands slowly mirroring each other touching their hands together. Both waiting and scared to touch but they do staring with their finger tips slowly to their palms flat against each other "wow I touch" "wow Kesha we're holding hands, HEEH" she smiles but something happens with their sight Akela sees her self smiling at Kesha as Kesha sees Kesha looking at Akela with wonder suddenly flipping back and forth with a blink their hands still together tell one blink Kesha's upside down.
"What the heck is happening" Suddenly Kesha is floating to the sky and Kesha is pulled down they fly apart from each other clouds closing off her view of the flying away Kesha.
"KESSHHHHHHA, Damnit" Akela try's to claw swim everything to stop falling when the clouds envelope her and she stops in a place that looks exactly like where she just was only sky.
"Ahhh what is this I touched her This whole time talking to myself was real she cared for me looks after me, Damnit I treat her like shit"
Akela slams her fist against the floor as the clouds start coming together combining and rising to the shape of a person.
"Our Freedom is not alone, but always shared"
