Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn is out and about in the mountainous trails again, seeking to follow up on the previously injured bear and her cub(s). This time she had thought to contact James well ahead of time because she knew he would want to check in on them..Plus it would be far safer to travel with him than on her own.

"Sooo..How exactly do we check up,on a mama bear who has two little Cubs and is likely in full strength now?"

Warpath has posed:
Walking quietly, not making a making a sound with his steps, Jimmy shakes his head and mutters softly,"We stay up wind and quiet." Barely a whisper. His attention stays ahead and he both listens intently and tests the air for the scent of the bears. No sense getting surprised by the momma bear. Probably Pixie isn't a consumate hunter and he does offer her a tight almost smirk, then back to the task at hand.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn pouts a bit, trying her best to shadow his moves, although she's never been good at the subterfuge. Still, only one way to learn, and James is clearly a pro at this. She drops her voice to a whisper now too, trying to be quiet as possible. "Soo how do we even know were up wind? And how do we know where to look? And..Uh.." ohhh she just has sooo many questions, and so little time! hunting is kinda intense that way.

Warpath has posed:
Looking at her, he shakes his head and even laughs softly. He raises his left index finger to put it in his mouth and then hold it in the air,"Feel where the breeze hit your finger. The wind is blowing towards us in relation to the bear's den." After a moment of consideration he adds,"If you want we can run some tracking training profiles in the Danger Room."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks a bit but nods, licking her finger, holding it into the air, feeling the rush of it against one side of her finger. "Ohh I get it, don't let em smell you, assuming you know whuch direction they're coming from.."n she smiles and nods, "I'd like that..But fir now. What are we doing, just sit and wait and hope that mama bear just stumbles across us and doesn't eat us?"

Warpath has posed:
Once she gets what he is telling her, he tests the air again and starts off in the general direction of the cave. His path isn't straight towards it however, the scent seems to be pulling him slightly east of the cave where the mother must be currently.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn isn't used to super silent types but she does her best to follow after James, about to open her mouth to make a random comment but thinks the better of it. It's pretty narrow and crowded with low hanging trees, so flying is not a good option right now. Let's hope she can keep up with him as he runs so much faster than her. But hey at least they're not heading into scary cave? right?
