The sun had set over the jungles of Azure Island, as the sounds of the animals and creatures that dwelled and inhabited the jungle began to quiet down. Nightfall had come over the island, and deep in the jungle, a small campfire illuminated a small portion of the jungle. Sitting around the campfire, was Lucia, Mikey, and Tu Li. However, despite the food being ready, Mikey and Tu Li were the only ones eating, while Lucia was preoccupied trying to heal Mikey's cuts and bruises, all the while not too happy about it.


Mikey: Well that went pretty good.


Lucia: Yeah it did, of course it could have gone great if you actually listened to what I told you to do, then you wouldn't have been taken down, Tu Li and me wouldn't have had to save you, and they wouldn't have gotten away.


Lucia told Mikey which gave out an annoyed tone towards him, making his grin disappear. That was when he looked towards Tu Li, who only looked at the both of them with concern.


Tu Li: Lucia is right, she's been on this island for most of her life, she knows this jungle better then anyone else, and I'm sure she knows about a lot of creatures here that even I have never heard of before. I don't doubt you can fight off most creatures. But but I'm worried that you might end up in a situation like today, without anyone to help you.


With the realization hitting him, Mikey knew he screwed up, and screwed up big time. He could only feel regret about his actions from earlier.


Mikey: I'm.....I'm sorry, Lucia. I should've listened. And I'm sorry too, Tu Li. I didn't mean to worry you.


Seeing Mikey starting to feel bad for what he did, Lucia could only sigh.


Lucia: It's fine. Just try to listen to me, and we'll try again tomorrow.


Mikey smiled, hearing that Lucia was giving him a second chance. Despite messing up today, she wasn't going to give up on him.


Mikey: Yeah. I still want to give it a go.

I would like to give my greatest thanks to  usagiforehead for making this great and amazing picture :D . I also wanted to give great thanks to my friend  jurgenblue and his character Lucia for being part of this :) . To see Mikey trying to hunt is great to see, even though it didn't quite turn out how he had expected. Then again, not listening to the very one who is trying to give you instructions and a good plan to follow will make anything go from being alright to a complete disaster. To see Lucia not happy with Mikey's antics really speaks for itself here, and goes to show his recklessness and him not listening to what he is told. But to see Tu Li's concern really does show how she feels about the entire situation, with her being completely worried about Mikey's well-being and wondering what would've happened if she and Lucia weren't there to help him. Overall, I like how this pic turned out, showing that this is the first steps for Mikey to learning on how to hunt, and that he still has a long way to go, if he listens to instructions that is ;) .
