Timeline: Morning after Camping out
ON:
Serena woke up from a well rested sleep, she rubbed her eyes and she sat up. There fire was long gone and birds were chirping in the distance. She saw Daniels passed out in his sleepingbag. Seren got up and strached out before she started packing her things. After she was about done, she walked up to Daniels with LoLa and allowed her to sniff him in the ear, hopeing to make a funny situation happen.
Daniels smacked at the creature, then mumbled something about 'just five more minutes, mom.'
Seren pulled LoLa away as fast as she could before Daniels swatted at her. She laughed as Daniels started to freak out. But soon judging by the look on his face, he wasn't at lest bit happy with her.
Jolting awake, Daniels leveled a severe glare. "Not funny." He said, with a scowl. "I'll forgive you, strictly, because you are cute."
Seren blushed a little before she got up off from the ground, "We need to get going Daniels. If we are to be saved then we can't acomplish things if we just lay her for another five minutes. Now can we?"
"Sure we can." Daniels said. "They can wait a few minutes."
Seren rolled her eyes as she started putting her satchel on and placed LoLa on her shoulder. As she started walking in the direction they were to go, she turned around and started to walk back wards and stated, "I have no problem leaving you Daniels keep that in mind." Then arched her eyebrows and smiled devilishly. Then she streched her arm and moved her index finger for him to fallow her before she turned around and slowly started to walk; allowing him to catch up to her.
Daniels caught up, and gave her a quick hug. "No! Don't leave me alone, cold, and defenseless out here! Why, I'd be unable to take a shot for you, if we came across nasties!" He said, with a mock-look of fear on his face.
Seren started to laugh and told him to get off from her as she started to push him off. "I wouldn't have left you," she stated with a big smile, "But it did motivated you to get up and going." Then she chuckled once more as she continued walking down there path. She wasn't sure of what was going to happen but all she knew was she needed to get back to civilization and soon. She had wondered if the Calypso crew were looking for them or if they knew what was going on. But then it popped in her head is the crew the only things currently on this planet. Or is there something else rumbling about something bigger and more dangerous. She tried to put that out of her head as she continued to walk.
Daniels looked about, as they walked. "This place is so disorienting." He muttered. "Can't seem to get my bearings."
Seren shook her head slightly as she started to climb up hill, once they reached the top Seren noticed foot tracks infront of them. Big enough to were they couldn't ignore it. She bent down and hoovered her hand over it. It was about the size of her hand. Her eyes widen to the freashly made tracks on the ground. She looked up at Daniels soon after wondering what to do next.
Daniels noted the tracks immediately. He drew his phaser. Following the tracks, he found the telltale sign of a Starfleet campsite being set up here: An empty ration pack.
"You know, if we follow these tracks, we should be able to find the others." Daniels said, his phaser still in hand.
"Perhaps," she stated looking at the prints closer, "But these aren't human and are phaser's don't work here I thought." As she looked at the phaser in his hand.
"It's a projectile. I intend to throw it. Real hard." Daniels clarified. "Besides, if the others are in trouble, there's strength in number. But how the heck to you think it's not human?"
"Well first off, this being dosn't wear shoes and second off," then she pointed out the abnormal print in the ground, "I normal human or such is feet don't look like this." Then she looked up at Daniels, "I don't think were the only ones here?"
"Probably not."
Serena sat back for a moment and studied it. Standing back up and looked at Daniels and said, "Lets just keep an eye out. Hopefully the people here are friendly."
"No joke, there." Daniels said, nodding.
She nodded her head and begain to walk down the beat path to the site. Things started to look famillar as they kept walking by but the foot prints worried her more then what she could bare. She kept a cool collective demenor about herself as she kept walking. After ten minutes or so, Serena spotted something shinning in the distance. She smiled and started running towards the object.
Daniels followed suit.
