"Yes, once you are done looking for those plane things they you can go back to the Great Valley." Ducky said nodding.

"I agree," Frank said continuing to help push the log.

Deimos helped push the log the last few feet. "All right, so what do you guys want to do now?" he asked.

James shrugged. "I'm going to gather and boil some water," he said. "Ducky, Frank could you help gather firewood? Dan, Cleve, Deimos, could you gather food? And Ruby, Chomper, Petrie, Littlefoot, mind watching the camp and maintaining the fire while I'm gone?" he asked.

James took off his backpack and placed it by the cave's back wall. He then took five large canteens with a large 'X' painted on it and slung them over his shoulders along with his shotgun.  Several smaller canteens for the others lay beside his backpack.

He then exited the cave as Deimos followed him.

"Me can watch camp." Petrie said nodding.  

"I can get firewood I can I can."  Ducky said nodding.  "I do hope all this does not take us long I do, I do." Ducky said as she walked outside to start looking for small sticks and such she could carry to use as firewood.

"Sure." Dan said.   Dan went to get a sack or container before setting out to try to gather some food from plants he recognized as well as fruit that looked in season.

Cleve happily took the rifles and the colt.  "I'll see if I can find any fruits," Cleve said, "I shouldn't stray too far away, but I'll bring a rifle just in cafe."

Frank started to pick up some of the larger pieces of wood after he walked outside.

Ducky gathered some wood she could easily carry.  Once she had gathered the amount she could easily carry she went back to drop some off at the camp then to head out again.  

Dan gathered some fruit and berries he found that were in season, as well as some leaves and such that were of the eatable parts of edible plants.  He put them into the container that he had.

Cleve walked into the forest near the cave and payed close attention to anything that moved.

Frank walked back into the cave and set the wood he picked up down and walked back outside to get some more.

James was filling the canteens from a lake in a nearby oasis. Deimos was catching fish from that same lake.

"So James, why can't you just drink the water from the lake like I do?" Deimos asked as he caught a fish and tossed it on the shore.

"I'm not from here, I'll get sick if I do," James replied.

Deimos did not know why he would get sick but did not bother asking. He then tossed another fish on shore.

"I'll carry these back to camp," he said. He caught some more fish and ate them as his meal. He suddenly caught the scent of something that had recently died. He then handed the fish to James. "Actually, I smell something good nearby. I'll be right back," he said. He then headed off into the distance.

James shrugged and carried the fish and water back to the camp.

When he arrived he placed the fish onto a large flat rock that served as a table of sorts. He then grabbed a pot, placed it on the rocks in the campfire and started pouring his recently obtained water into the pot. When he was done, he sat next to the cave.

"So how have things been?" he asked the group gathered in the campsite while waiting for the water to boil.

(OOC - Is it nighttime or daytime?)

"Things have been very good james," littlefoot said.

Frank returned with another load of wood. "Ah what's for dinner james?" frank asked.

Meanwhile, in the forest, Cleve saw some strange yellow fruit hanging down from a tree. Cleve grabbed a long stick from the ground and knocked it off. The fruit resembled a pear, but it was red inside and a lot bigger.

Cleve cut open one of these fruits and rubbed a bit onto this skin to check for poison. Nothing happened. Cleve put a small piece of the fruit on the tip of his tongue. It had a sweet taste, and it didn't appear to be poisonous.

Feeling glad, Cleve knocked off several more of these fruits and carried them off. He reached the cave just before the rain came.

"Try some of these new fruits I found," Cleve said, "They taste really sweet."

"Chomper," Ruby whispered, "I know I know that fruit... But I can't remember from where."

"Isn't that the same fruit that we used to defeat Redclaw?" Chomper responded.

Frank took a piece of the fruit. "This is pretty good," Frank said.

"Where did you find them?" Littlefoot asked.

"There was some forest near the cave," Cleve responded, "I found them there."

Littlefoot turned to chomper. "Does it smell the same chomper?" littlefoot asked.

James took a piece of the fruit and took a bite. "Mmm. These are good," he said. "Just in case, we'd better eat only a little bit until we're sure they aren't poisonous," he said.

Deimos returned dragging a dead Swimmer behind him and deposited it outside the cave. He was covered in scratches and bruises. He then sat down on a stone that served as a seat. "I found a dead Swimmer a good distance away, I think it's fresh so if you want, you can share with me. It's outside the cave," he said.  "In any case, what's to eat?"

James watched the water boil. "We could have fish as usual," he said. "I'll get another fire going while someone cleans the fish."

Deimos looked at the wood supply. "Frank, you go rest a bit, I'll gather some more wood and stuff," he said.

frank simply nodded his head and sat down by the fire.
