"Okay, I'll repeat it," she replied, sighing under the pressure of her foot. "I'm a Botanist/Zooligist, and I study different plants and animals, focusing mainly on Korona. I came here to learn to do sketches of the animal and plant life here, and I did some sketches of your friend here, until she chased me down and started threatening me."

"Yes, I do," she replied. "It's in my sketchbook, over there by the tree."

Niki reached down and grabed the girls arm and pulled her up walked over to a tree and tied her wrists together behind the tree. (like hugging a tree backwards). "You really thought you could get away that easily?" She asked picking up the skechbook that sat at the girl's feet.

"Well, at least I'm telling the truth, and at least you're not stepping on my face anymore." Elena gestured towards her sketchbook, that was now in the hands of the halfling. "Go ahead, look. The permit is inbetween the first two pages."

Niki slid her fingers through the first two pages and sure enough there was a resherch permit. It had been granted for the next week. The signature was her own deplying officers and all was well. "Well... Everythings here you better be happy that Rini found you first over me, unlike her I follow the rules of basic halfling war code; kill any intruders on site ask questions later. I would have done it anyway your human." Niki said before taking an arrow out and cutting the human free.

Elena fell forward as the ropes were cut, as she was not prepared to be released. She caught herself, and picked up her sketchbook, that was opened, face-down in the dirt. Bending down, she picked it up and brushed the soil away from the permit and notes. "Yeah, thanks for the hospitality," she replied in a slightly sarcastic voice. "I appreciate it."

Elena's expression went soft. "I'm sorry..I-I didn't know." She looked down to the soil in disgust of her people. "But please realize," she continued, "I was a probably just a mere child when that happened."

Rini needed to lighten the mood. She couldn't handle all the pressure in the air. She playfully flopped her elbow on Niki's shoulder, making a simple peace sign with her left hand.
"Lets let Bi-Gones be bi-gones, eh?" She said happily, closing her eyes and smileing (AH! THE TRADITIONAL ANIME POSE! FEAR IT! FEAR IT!!) "You wanna sketch us? You can't get any anger from a wolf like Niki can generate!" She said, laughing. Please don't hate me Niki. She silently begged.

"Okay. Bi-gones, Bi-gones." She laughed a little, and sat over on the sand. "Sound okay to you, Halfling two?" she asked as she slipped off her shoes and grabbed her sketchbook. She opened up to a new page, and grabbed her small piece of dark charcoal.

Niki was deep in thought. Her fake smile stayed but inside she was crying. Rini could probably sence this but it didn't matter. She would never trust a human after what they did to her, it didn't matter to her who they were or wether they had anything to do with her family; it was a sin in her book to be human. A small tear fell down her face and suddenly she couldn't stop them anymore, she burried her face in her friends sholder wimpering softly.

Elena looked up from her sketches and notes to see halfling two crying against the other. As she was about to get up, she remembered that that halfling treated her like scum, and thought of her the same. She decided to leave them be, and sketch some of the oaks by the pond.

Rini smiled softly, her protective nature taking over. "It's ok." She whispered, wrapping her arms around her freind. "It's ok." She murmmured again. I'll protect you Niki. She thought silently, making a vow.
A wave of truth wrapped around the two halflings, the vow being finalized. The only sign that it had actually happen was a momentary ripple in the air, then it was done. "I'll protect you Niki."

Elena tried very hard to understand what they were saying, but she wasn't very good at reading lips. So, she finished her sketches of the oaks by the pond.
The sketches she made didn't take very long to complete, and the human was soon bored of sitting down and letting the sun bake her, so she decided to take a dip in the pond. In a moment of time, she had slipped out of her hand-croched sweater and green dress, and dived into the pond.
