The three kids made their way out of the house in no time flat, wanting to have their super secert meeting as soon as possible. Of course they can't have their secert meeting where outsiders other than Keya could possibly hear them. That just wouldnt do. As soon as they three ran out the house they made their way a distance from said house. The trio came to a halt when they were under several trees right at the edge of the woods.
Keya followed after the kids once they rushed out of the house. She wasn't entirely sure where they were going to go. Honestly with these kids it could be anywhere on the island. Nonetheless she had no problems catching up with them, really if she knew where exactly they were going she could outpace them by a long shot. Once at the edge of the woods she assumed this was where they were going to discuss things. "Alright then kiddos. What's the plan?" The dwarf asked with a wide grin on her face, eager to kick some ass and save some animals. Provided of course the animals DIDN'T actually migrate...but even Keya was smart enough to know that was quite the long shot.
When they were all together Mac looked around once more to make sure they really were alone before she sat on the ground and looked at Keya. "We think, that someone is taking all the animals here. We dont know exactly where however!"
"They might be in the deep part of the woods." Teri siad before Mac could finsih which made her glare in his direction. "What?"
"I was going to say that after a dramatic pause. Do you know nothing of being an agent?!"
".........Anyway. We aren't really sure. Its just once when we were on the look out we saw a ship come to the island some time ago."
"Several weeks, numerous days, not recently at all." Alex mumbled as he played with his hands. "But um...we haven't seen it leave since then. I mean we could have probably missed it. Especially if it left at night....but its dangerous to sail at night and ya um..."
"What makes it weirder is that was the last ship to come to our island, well, not including the one you were on."
"Will you guys let me speak!!!" Mac shouted as she crossed her arms. "I'm the leader I'm suppose to give the mission briefing..."
"Then give it already."
"I would! If soooooome people would stop talking over me!"
"Oh...um..sorry I just wanted..okay then."
"Mac come on we need to hurry this up. We finally have someone who will listen."
"I know!" Mac snapped before looking back at Keya with a smile. "Anyway, I think the last ship to come here was about, four weeks ago. And, maybe a bit longer. It was around then more animals then normal started to just vanished..."
Keya sat still for once as the kids started explaining what they THOUGHT was the issue. Though it likely was, and honestly she had nothing to argue against it that it wasn't, so she was inclined to believe them. She giggled as they started arguing, which of course was always pretty funny to watch and listen to. They reminded them a lot of the kids at her old village, always arguing and fighting though really still best friends. When they mentioned the ship she arched a brow. Mysterious ship, animals disappearing, no other ships for a while?
Yeah that definitely sounded suspicious to the dwarf. When they finally finished talking she nodded slightly to herself. "Well in that case I say we, well...case the ship and see what's up." She replied. "It's the most logical decision, and well since I'm tiny it'll be easy enough. You guys are fairly small too." She explained. "We snoop around, ask some questions, spy on the ship a bit, then come up with a better plan if that is where the animals are." She said. "Sound good..?" She asked.
At the suggestion the kids went quiet for a bit before exchanging glances. After a moment Alex spoke up. "It sounds good, but....we aren't allowed past the fence. Its dangerous over there and we aren't good fighters." He said softly as he poked his fingers together.
"And Ms Rosa will get pretty mad at us...." Teri continued.
"And if there really are bad people hurting the animals, I don't know if we could help, assist, be of use. I mean I would love to help! But.....i know i cant do much."
"As leader it's my job to keep these two safe. We can show you the fence in the forest, but that's as far as we can go," Mac added.
Keya listened to the kids, understanding of them. They were indeed just kids even if they did want to help the animals with everything they had. Whilst she wasn't the BEST fighter, she did at-least have training and she could outrun really any human unless she was trapped or tricked. It was likely for the best that she did go by herself as they said. She didn't want them getting hurt, not actually caring if they got in trouble, but if they got hurt or even killed because of her she wouldn't forgive herself.
She smiled brightly at them and nodded, "That's fine, I understand!" She told them cheerfully. "You guys are kids after all, I don't mean that as an insult or teasing or anything either. It's best you don't get mixed up in fighting." She said. "Lead the way to the fence and I'll do what I can do~" She told them, ready to kick ass and figure out just who had been stealing the animals.
Alex, Teri, and Mac each gave Keya a determined nod before the trio began to lead their dwarf friend to the gate. Once there, the kids quickly noticed the adult sized hole in the fence the gate was in. "I hope that was made by your friends, allies, comrads...," Alex said.
Keya followed swiftly behind the kids, eyes curiously scanning her surroundings. Everything was much different than the island she grew up on but she wasn't actually that concerned by that, no. She was looking for any kinds of clues she could use to maybe solve this mystery. Before long they reached the gate and she stared blankly at the hole left in it, "..I hope so too." She replied. She sighed gently before giving them all a bright smile. "If I'm not back in a while tell everyone where I went alright?" She told them, waving before dashing off and out of sight, also being careful just in-case there were any traps. Whatever was going on, she was determined to figure it out or probably get captured trying. Either one.
