"I guess we are," RUe said, thinking over it. "Huh."

Oh, good, Setsuko thought, She dose know. That saves me from another explanation. "Hey," She said out loud. "I'm gonna head back...gotta make sure Jaci hasn't destroyed the cabin." Her eyes sparkled playfully, but then where replaced by more seriousness. "Coming?" She asked.

"I'm coming," Rue said. She angled her body downward, diving down at a gentle decline.

Setsuko flew the distance to the cabin, landing gracefully. "Hey Jaci, we're back!" The Blue Lion bounded out playfully to meet her, knocking her and licking her face. "Good to see you, too!" Setsuko laughed in response. "Hey, Rue," Setsuko wondered aloud as her friend entered the cabin. "Do you have any pets?"

"We have 5," she said. "Well, we don't really count Total or his puppies as pets. THey can talk. Akila can't though, she's the mother of Total's puppies," she said. She wondered if that wound sound strange.

"That's interesting," Setsuko replied. "Talking animals, eh? Sometimes I wish Jaci could talk." She ruffled the Blue Lion's mane. "What kind of animal are they?" She asked.

"Dog. Akila is a malamute, and Total...well, we're not sure. And Total may have some human DNA." she said.

"I see." Setsuko replied thoughtfully. "I've never met any dogs. My cousin has, though, they're a little more common where she lives, but she doesn't have one. She has a Tigskie named Skitty."

"A...tigskie?" Rue asked. "What's that?" she asked curiously.

"You, know, Tigskie. A little orange-colored animal with black stripes. They have huge ears, short legs and fluffy, curly tails. And adult stands to about Jaci's knee, but Skitty is only a cub..about six months old. These animals have a more similar lifespan to normal cats and dogs." Setsuko explained.

"Okay," Rue said slowly, picturing it in her mind. "What other kinds of animals are there?" she asked curiously.

Setsuko laughed lightly. "You mean that I've met, or in the entire world?"

"That you've met," Rue said.

"Well..." Setsuko said, thinking. "I've meet a flying lemur named Momo. They have cite round faces and long, thin tails. They have wings like wolf-bats and really big ears. They're Airbender pets; Momo was Father's. Unfortunately, Momo passed away a few months ago, the poor thing." Setsuko sighed, remembering the little lemur and the spats he's have with Jaci. "Another Airbender animal is Sky Bison...Father has one of those too, his name is Appa. They're really big, a little bigger than this cabin. And they have six legs and thick, white fur. There's Blue Lions like Jaci and Tigskies like Skitty, as well as tons of other animals that I don't see very often or not at all. Wolf-bats, platypus-bears, badger-moles, messenger hawks, dragons...the list could go on and on."

"Dragons?" Rue asked, amazed. Dragons only exsisted in like, fairytales.
