Lupe caught the fish midair, and the entire thing as well. She chewed, swallowed, then spat out the bone of the fish. "So then, when do we shove off, navigator? She stated with mocking sarcasm. She had no intention for letting him lead her.

Jax slowly went into the water and went far enough in so his head was the only thing showing. "Follow the coast until we reach Zoulae... If anything happens to you, yell for me and get my attention..." He ducked under the water and after a quick moment, he reappeared farther down the coast. "Come on!"

Lupe started following, even though she was planning to walk down the shore from the start. She did not understand why her brother always ended up leading her, was it because he was born a few seconds before her? She continued walking, even when the sand ended and the edge to the water no longer was shore, but a slight drop from a stone where rocks were in the water below. She looked ahead, where the stones turned into higher climbs with a cliff on the side to the water full of rocks below.

Jax stopped to see the large rocks blocking him from continuing. He quickly swam his way to the edge of the land to where Lupe was. "I can't get past this... I don't want to separate from you." He crawled up and stood next to Lupe. "What do you want to do...?" The water was too dangerous to pass and the cliff will be an easier choice to pass.

"Simple. Keep going with whatever's available." She stated with a tone that was making it sound obvious. She started walking up the higher ground near the coast still in wolf form. The ground was rough, compromised of stone and rocks. There were no plants growing, but only slight amounts of weeds growing.

Jax slithered behind Lupe and made sure he didn't cut himself on any of the rocks. They both reached the top of the hill and up to the cliff. The view was of a forest with small town hugging the edge."That town is a halfway point from Zoulae. I remember Dad taking me here to sell some fish..." It was noon, and the sun was starting to slowly move down.

"We better keep moving." Lupe stated as she started heading for the forest. "Or would you prefer to stay in that village?" She asked.

Jax looked up at the sun then back down at Lupe. "We'll keep moving... It's not too late..." He carefully made his way down the slope to the side and walked beside Lupe who was heading towards the forest. "Hey Lupe... I have a question for you.." He tilted his head as he asked the question. "Why do we hate each other...?'

"Well, why do you insist on always trying to lead me when I can lead myself?" She snapped back as she walked a little faster, pulling a little farther from Jax.

"Because last time you tried to "Lead yourself", you ended up getting both of us far from home and in the hands of bandits!" Jax was getting a bit irritated by Lupe. She didn't realize that she put them both in danger by not being careful on her own. He sighed and caught up to Lupe. "Why did this have to happen...?"

"Oh, and you think I wanted to get kidnapped, knocked out, chained up, taken from home, caged, and kicked across the face?" She growled back. "Tch, why did it have to be twins? Why did both of us need to be born?" She muttered under her breath. She continued through the forest.

"Gods... Forget it..." Jax was too angry to continue his conversation with Lupe. To him, she was acting like an immature child. He sped up his pace to get ahead of Lupe and head home. Overall, the journey from where they were to where Zoulae is would be a day and a half.

"Whatever." Lupe growled as she kept walking. The forest was dense, dark, and humid. Soon, there was a large crater that stretched to both sides out of view with an old wooden rope bridge connecting the two sides. "Looks precarious." Lupe stated as she changed forms and put on the clothes she was carrying. She changed forms so there would be less weight to cross. She carefully walked across the bridge, a few of the sodden planks across it having fallen off from someone using them after many years. "Well, come on!" She shouted back when she reached the other side.

Jax changed back to human and stopped at the bridge. "I'm coming...! Just calm down...!" He walked up to the edge that was next to the bridge and looked off. "That's a long drop down..." Slowly taking step after step, he took his time as he walked over the bridge. The bridge creaked as Jax walked. It was definitely old and the wood on it was rotting. In a quick reaction, a few ropes snapped and Jax started to run across. "OH GODS!!" Every time his foot hit a piece of wood, one would break. The bridge finally collapsed as Jax leaped for the edge. He disappeared from Lupe's sight as the bridge fell to the large crater.

"Jax?" Lupe asked. "JAX?!" she repeated, starting to freak out. She peered over the side. She caught a glimpse of something moving.
