Inside the bedroom area at Fester residents. Timber Night Wolf was still in bed sleeping, after staying up late at night studying for an important exam on Monday. Normally, Timber usually go to bed early, after studying for a long period of time, but do of his gender change from a male to female, Timber had some weird craving for late night snacks for chips, and she would easily eat an entire bag than Nightshade. Cause of that, Timber around in bed, and her body have a change reaction of gas in her sleep, which keep her up through the night. Now Timber felt calm now, and trying her best to catch some z's. While, Timber was still sleeping, somewhere at the other side of the room, a large looking female wolf was stalking down her pray who was sleeping on the bed. She smile to herself, knowing her target was going to be easy picking. The large female wolf slowly walk towards her prey, trying her best not to make any noise. She accidentally step on, Timber teddy bear, which made a noise, which echo across the room. The female wolf look at her prey, and relief she was still sleeping. Before she had a chance to make another step, the female wolf notice something on the floor that catch her eye. The female wolf saw a small rock on the floor, and it was her pet Rock-Rock. The female Wolf was stunned to see her pet fell off from her tribal skirt. The female wolf grab Rock-Woff from the floor, and kiss it to make sure if it was ok. The female wolf place her pet rock back in her tribal skirt, making sure it won’t escape again. The female wolf went back for her hunt, and continue walking until she finally reach the side of the bed. The female wolf look at her prey for a moment, seeing how peaceful she is. The female wolf held out her arms in mid-air, preparing herself for a surprise attack. Before she done anything, a familiar voice hit her ear, which was coming from her prey bed.

Timber Night Wolf: Tam-Tam, if you’re going to sneak tickle attack me in bed, you might want to be a little sneakier than that.

Tam-Tam: *she sigh to herself, knowing her sneak attack won't work* darn it, Timber you ruin Tam-Tam hunting training. How can, Tam-Tam be better hunter, if cousin ruin Tam-Tam technique

Timber Night Wolf: Timber sorry for ruin your hunting training, but Timber didn't agree of being, Tam-Tam prey practice.

Tam-Tam: *she laugh* come now cousin Timber, you always be Tam-Tam prey practice, even if you are a different species ... or different gender

Timber Night Wolf: *she didn't said a word to her, but sigh to herself knowing the fact she stuck as a big female wolf* what is it that you want, Tam Tam, other than being really annoying

Tam-Tam: aunty, Norah want me to go out hunting fish for lunch later, and Tam-Tam was wondering if you want to join?

Timber Night Wolf: Timber would like to join you, but Timber need more time to rest. Timber stay up late studying for an important test that coming up in a few days.

Tam-Tam: Timber don't need rest, Timber need to join Tam-Tam in hunt. Besides, Aunty, Norah want you to go with Tam Tam

Timber Night Wolf: why you want me to go with you. Aren’t you born, and raise in the woods, and can easily hunt wild animals.

Tam-Tam: True that Tam Tam can hunt on own, but aunty Norah said that you know the forest better than, Tam-Tam. So Tam Tam can't go anywhere without cousin being by Tam-Tam side. Plus aunty Norah mentioned about Tam-Tam of not getting into trouble for some reason.

Timber understood the last part of keeping an eye on her cousin, especially since she is new in the area, and may cause some trouble without knowing. Timber got out from bed, and speak to her cousin before getting dress.

Timber Night Wolf: alright, Timber will go with you hunting, just promise me that you won't do anything silly while in the forest.

Tam-Tam: I'm shock cousin, Timber. Tam-Tam would never do something silly to cousin. You are Tam-Tam favorite cousin, and Tam-Tam like to hang out with cousin.

Timber Night Wolf: I get it, I get it. We are going to the forest, and hunt some fish together. Timber friend showed me a nice fishing spot, where we can catch a lot of fish.

Tam-Tam: awesome, we going on a fishing hunt!

Timber Night Wolf: you mean fishing trip?

Tam-Tam: but that what Tam-Tam said, fishing hunt.

Timber Night Wolf roll her eyes to herself, knowing that her cousin going to be a handful to deal with all day. She look back to one of her dresser, which she kept some of her undergarments. She would had some of her old boxer shorts, but thanks to Nightshade shopping spree, she got nothing more but lacey like panties, and bra that she had to wear. Timber sigh to herself that she going to have a chore trying to put on a bra, then she would with a panties. Before she even put one on, Tam-Tam stood by and grab the pair of panties from her cousin hand. Tam Tam look at the lacey, and was curious of how odd it was.

Tam Tam: cousin Timber, what is this strange thing I’m looking at?

Timber Night Wolf: that a pair of panties, Tam Tam. Most girls usually wear them.

Tam Tam: are they some sort of armor of kind?

Timber Night Wolf: not really an armor, but it help protect you from the bottom. Now would you mind hand them over, please. It already weird talking about panties.

Tam Tam: sorry cousin, Tam Tam never seen panties like these before. Since female wear them, does Tam Tam need to wear one?

Timber Night Wolf: need to wear one, but I thought you already wearing one?

Tam Tam: *she laugh* silly cousin, where Tam Tam from, we don’t wear those things. In fact, Tam Tam been not wearing any panties under this trial skirt. Do you want to see?

Timber Night Wolf: *her face blush* I believe you, Tam Tam, Timber already had enough view, when dealing with my friend Nightshade.

Tam Tam: what do you mean by that cousin?

Timber Night Wolf: … sigh, never mind. Let just get ready please.

Tam Tam was still confuse of what her cousin meant by that, she was plan to say something else, but caught in mid-sentence, after Timber toss a spare panties at her cousin face. Miles away from, Timber Night Wolf home. Somewhere inside the deeper part of the forest, a female forest demon dragon named Qarle walking through the forest, while carrying a family of duckling in her arms. Qarle enjoy helping small animals that can’t protect themselves from the danger of the forest, it also give her an excuse to leave her tribe for a while. Qarle carefully walk through the forest, making sure that she doesn’t drop the ducking from her arms. She look at her arms, and see that the mother duck, and her children’s were staying close to her dragon scales, knowing that she can be trusted. Qarle smile to herself, happy that her new friends are doing alright. After walking through the woods, Qarle was able to see the lake from a distance, which mean she wasn’t too far to bring the duck family to their home. Before she had a chance to make another step, Qarle magic aura sense something in the air, which draw her attention to see what it was. Part of her already know what this magic aura was, but the other part knows she need to drop the family of ducks, before things get worst. Qarle reach the lake without any problems, she look around her surrounding, making sure that aura she felt a moment ago wasn’t there. Qarle felt the ducklings were moving around her arms, excited to go swim in the lake. She giggles to herself, letting them know she going to take them soon. Qarle walk by the edge of the lake, and gently place them on the ground. The mother duck escorted her children’s, and all of them swim away to a safe place. Qarle was relief that she saved the family from danger, and was ready to head back to the woods. But when she was about to get up, her magic aura was active again, but this time a lot stronger. Qarle didn’t make any movement, since she felt someone was standing behind her. The magic aura was familiar, and it indeed belong to another forest demon dragon. Qarle slowly look by her side, and she was right about the person being a forest demon dragon, but this dragon was standing a lot taller than her, and their scales was pitch darkness that make it hard for anyone to see them. Qarle look at the forest demon dragon eyes, but they were covered by their very long hair, which long enough to touch their pillow size breast. Qarle know who this forest dragon was, since their magic aura was very familiar. Qarle see the demon dragon move their hair, showing their pure moon eyes staring at her. Qarle stood still knowing that she seen those eyes before, which made her wish it wasn’t her she meeting. Qarle lower her head out of respect, and speak to the forest demon dragon.

Qarle: good morning to you, Queen Diana Draco

Diana Draco: come now, Qarle, you don’t need to show any proper towards me, especially when seeing your own mother.

Qarle: ….. Sorry mother, you did raise me to show proper respect.

Diana Draco: which is why I’m very proud of you my daughter. Now then, you know why I’m doing here?

Qarle: no, but I’m guessing it had something to do with me being gone so long.

Diana Draco: it is, Qarle. You were meant to come back home a while ago, but so far you haven’t so up. Care to tell me why.

Qarle: I was busy helping my friend’s mother. Most of the animals here can’t protect themselves, and all I’m doing is.

Diana Draco: not another word young lady. Qarle, do you know what we are?

Qarle: …… we are forest demon dragon.

Diana Draco: good, and do you know what our main purpose?

Qarle: …. To survive

Diana Draco: that right my daughter. Our tribe main purpose is to survive, and show no mercy towards the weak. If anyone from our tribe find out that you been busy helping animals instead of hunting them, you know what they will do.

Qarle: I know mother, but I’m not like the others, I prefer to make friends, and help animals the need it the most. You of all dragons know that I’m different.

Diana Draco was meant to say something to get her daughter to understand, but when she look at her eyes, she know her daughter is very committed to what she wanted. As a mother, she want to support her daughter, and all she can do for now is give her a hug. Qarle felt her mother hug, which made her hug back. They didn’t say anything, until finally free from the hug.

Diana Draco: Qarle, you are a special dragon that different from the tribe. You have a sinister look in your eyes like us, but a pure heart that willing to change. I won’t force you to change, but at least try to hunt a little food, before coming home.

Qarle: …. Sigh, for you mother.

Diana Draco: that my daughter, and don’t forget to disguise yourself, I sense some strangers in the forest, and I don’t want you get caught.

Qarle: do I have to disguise myself mother?

Diana Draco: yes young lady, no stranger haven’t seen us for thousands of years, and we are keeping it that way. I want you disguise yourself as a feral fox, and make sure to stay a good distance away from them.

Qarle knew that she can’t argue with her mother, when it comes to stranger that lurked in the forest, her mother is protective mode, and nothing she would say will change her mind. Qarle did what her mother said, and use her magic to transform into a feral fox. Her fur body was similar like her scales, but the only things that stayed the same was her demon dragon eyes. Qarle look back at her mother, and notice that she was gone. Qarle hate it when her mother does that, but she figure she headed back to her village, and check on the others. Qarle looked back at the lake, and check up on the family of ducks she help escorted. She saw the mother duck checking on her ducklings, making sure they are following her, and swim across the other side of the lake. Qarle is happy that they were doing fine, which keep her at ease for a little while. Before she head to the forest to hunt some food, she heard some noise that was coming from the other side of the lake, Qarle hear two voices that were foreign to her. Qarle knew that her mother told her to never be seen by strangers, but part of her is worried about the family of ducks, and they might get hurt from the strangers. Qarle had no choice to disobey her mother again, and go protect her friends.

At the other side of the lake, Timber Night Wolf, and Tam Tam were both getting ready to do some fishing together. Timber was grabbing her fishing rod that she barrow from her father, since the one she use before was broken, do of an incident, which she and Tira were dealing with some angry squirrels that gotten interrupted from their hibernation. After she gotten the fishing rod ready, Timber look for her cousin so they can catch some fish for supper. Once she found her, Timber saw Tam Tam was already in the lake, splashing around the water, and see if she can catch a fish with her bare paws. Timber Night Wolf did a face paw, wondering what her cousin was doing. She reach the edge of the lake, and call her cousin to stop.

Timber Night Wolf: Tam Tam, what do you think your doing?

Tam Tam: this is how Tam Tam hunt for fish. Tam Tam go into water, and try to catch fish with paws.

Timber Night Wolf: that only work when you’re in shallow water, or the stream. This is a lake where most of the fish at the bottom. The only way we going to catch them, is by using the fishing rod.

Tam Tam: but catching fish with stick is boring, Tam Tam is warrior tribal wolf, and warrior tribal wolf need to do things the old fashion way.

Timber Night Wolf: your still a warrior tribal wolf in training Tam Tam, and your family send you to live with us, so you can fit in to civilization. Now stop being stingy, and let catch fishes the easy way.

Tam Tam: *she roll her eyes, and get out of the water* fine, Tam Tam do cousin way. But cousin had to promise Tam Tam to get frozen milk from store later.

Timber Night Wolf: Timber promise we go out, and buy ice cream *she cover her eyes* now would you please put some clothes on already.

Tam Tam: *she laugh* Tam Tam make cousin blush. Cousin shouldn’t be shy seeing Tam Tam naked, since you’re a female too. Plus even you have a nice figure that most of my tribe would crave for.

Timber Night Wolf: that true what you say, but part of me still the same person, no matter what gender Timber is.

Tam Tam:*she laugh* whatever you say cousin, but sooner than later you will get use being a girl, it suit you way better than a guy.

Timber wanted to say one thing to her cousin, but stop mid-way when Tam Tam bend down to pick up her clothes from the floor, but showing off her bunds towards her. Timber face was all blush even more, trying her best not to think about it. She walk away from her cousin a bit, and concentrate with fishing.

From a distance where the two are fishing, the little feral fox, Qarle finally reach the other side of the lake. She look at the two wolves, and was surprise to see tribal wolves in forest demon dragon territory. Qarle saw the one in tribal clothing, and recognize some of the marking on her body, knowing that the wolf is part of the forest wolf tribe that not too far from the forest demon dragon area. Qarle look at the other wolf, and yet was amaze how she look more civilize than the tribal wolf. Qarle look at her outfit, and she was drawn in of how cute the wolf was wearing it. Qarle would have look at that particular wolf for a while, but she came back to reality, when she saw the family of duck heading their direction. Qarle knew she had to head over there, and protect the family, before one of the wolf would harm them. Timber Night Wolf was showing her cousin, Tam Tam how to fish. Tam Tam was yawing a little, knowing how board she was fishing the city folks way. Timber Night Wolf was too occupied, making sure that her cousin pasture was right.

Timber Night Wolf: alright Tam Tam, make sure you keep your body straight, and don’t too much, or else you would accidently scared that fish away.

Tam Tam: how you town folks fish this way. It so boring, and not fun.

Timber Night Wolf: just give it some time, Tam Tam. Fishing take a lot of skills, and you will catch one in time.

Tam Tam: whatever you say cousin, still think we could have done something more fun *she look at the lake, and saw some family of ducks* hey cousin, Tam Tam see family of ducks.

Timber Night Wolf: that cool, Tam Tam. How about we concentrate, and *she look and notice that her cousin going after the ducks* Sigh, for crying out loud, Tam Tam.

Tam Tam reach the side where the family of ducks are, and see them searching for food. Tam Tam hunting instinct kick in, and plan to hunt the ducks for lunch. She search the ground, and found a few rocks, which she plan to knock out one of the rocks. Before she had the chance to hit one of them, Timber Night call out her name, in order to stop her from harming the family of ducks.

Timber Night Wolf: Tam Tam Stop! Don’t you dare try what you think you’re going to do?

Tam Tam: what do you mean, Timber? Tam Tam was going to use rocks, and knock out one of the ducks, so Tam Tam bring home dinner

Timber Night Wolf: Timber don’t agree with this. Timber mother said to hunt fish, and nothing else.

Tam Tam: we will hunt fish, after Tam Tam get some ducks.

Timber Night Wolf: by throwing ricks? What would your pet rock-woof would say, if he heard that you was using rocks at those ducks?

Tam Tam: *she drop the rocks on the floor, and grab her pet rock from her hiding place* oh dear, I’m sorry Mr. rock-woff, Tam Tam didn’t meant to use them like that. *she place her pet rock by her ear* Tam Tam understand. Tam Tam won’t use rocks.

Timber Night Wolf: so you going to leave those ducks alone, and go back fishing?

Tam Tam: yes cousin, Timber. Tam Tam won’t hunt the ducks, just wish Tam Tam had some fun is all. Let Tam Tam toss these rocks in the bushes over there, and Tam Tam won’t use them.

Timber Night Wolf: very well, just be careful of not hitting anything.

Tam Tam started tossing some rocks at the bushes, making sure she won’t use to hit the family of ducks. Just when she toss the last one, Tam Tam somehow heard a yelp noise, which was loud enough to hear it from a short distance. Timber look at her cousin, wondering what it was.

Timber Night Wolf: Tam Tam, what was that you hit.

Tam Tam: Tam Tam don’t know. Tam Tam think it could be a small bug that make noise.

Timber Night Wolf: …. A small bug that make a yelp noise?

Tam Tam: you never know, there are strange things in the woods.

Timber Night Wolf: sigh, true, but just in case Timber going to see what it was

Tam Tam saw her cousin heading towards the bushes, she join with her just to make sure she doing alright. Timber started looking through the bushes, to see what made that yelp noise. She didn’t need to search further, since she spotted a female feral fox, and see it laying on her side. Timber was surprised to see a fox nearby the lake, since she remember that most of them live a little deeper in the woods. Timber look at the fox, and notice a little bruise on her head. Timber figure that the fox must the gotten hurt from her cousin tossing the rock. Tam Tam finally reach up to her cousin, and notice the feral fox too.

Tam Tam: oh wow, is that a feral fox, Tam Tam never seen one up close before.

Timber Night Wolf: Timber though you see feral creatures like these

Tam Tam: not often, parents keep Tam Tam away from danger, making sure Tam Tam was safe. Tam Tam never get chance to do anything warrior like, since parents always protect Tam Tam like baby

Timber Night Wolf: I see, and Timber guessing that your parents had you to live with us, so you can have better life.

Tam Tam: Tam Tam was born as a tribal warrior, not a lame comfort warrior. Tam Tam wish parents understand that.

Timber Night Wolf: Timber think your parents understand.

Tam Tam: you think so?

Timber Night Wolf: yes! Our parents always worried about us all the time, it part of their instincs, like how your instincts of being a warrior. Your parents know that you want to be a warrior, but they want you to open up to other things.

Tam Tam: guess your right cousin. Tam Tam may not be great warrior, but Tam Tam can try life like yours.

Timber Night Wolf: that good to hear cousin, now let see if we can help this little fox. *she examine the feral fox head, making sure nothing else was broken* hmm, seem like the rock you threw just injured her head a little, but lucky for us she is breathing. We need to carry her back to my room, and see if we can help her.

Tam Tam: what! Carry a feral creature back to your place. What about aunty, didn’t she said that no feral creature aren’t allow in the house, unless she say so?

Timber Night Wolf: Timber know what my mom said, but we have the proper medicine to help this feral creature, and I’m not going to leave her here injured. Beside, you going to help me bring her inside the house.

Tam Tam: why me, why you want Tam Tam be part of this?

Timber Night Wolf: you threw the rock, which injured the fox.

Tam Tam: ….. Sigh, alright, Tam Tam will help, but what about your mother, how will we bring her in?

Timber Night Wolf: there one thing my good friends, Tira and Nightshade had tough me for years, there is always a sneaky way to get inside the house, without my parents noticing.
