At the first thing Magno said, she just nodded absently, thinking about Elizabeth. She was so young...
At the second thing he said, Bailey perked her head up and nodded. "Genius! Magno, you're a genius!" she exclaimed, "We could use our claws to scratch things in the trees. We'd have to scratch them on the side of the tree that they have to go. If there aren't any trees, then we can use claw marks in the dirt. They could get deeper and deeper as they get closer to the camp.
But at the third thing Magno said, Bailey's eyes flashed. She walked over to Magno and nudged him. "Me too," she murmured. She sat there for a moment, then sighed and lifted her head. "They'll be wondering about us..." She gently nudged Magno and walked by him as they returned to the camp. There was a fire going, with large stones surrounding it.
Laysa looked up and shivered. The sun was beginning to set. "We need to build ourselves some dens," she complained. She looked around and found the biggest tree there--an old oak. She ran over to it and dug as hard as she could. Finally, there was an opening where the trees roots sprawled around. Laysa had made a den beside and beneath the tree. It would keep her warm, and, once she rolled a big rock over in front of it, it was hidden. She lifted her head up proudly.
"This is mine. Make yer own," she stated and curled up in the tree den.
((Okay, for now we'll wait for Gamma. She needs to be able to keep up.))
