*a former plantation ruined by the incursion of the swamp, it had been flooded for decades and left overgrown before pumonca kinfolk squatters dug out drainage and made something of the land, now a tiny, thriving community with 4 or 5 buildings, 1 of which is a common building for gathering and getting out of the rain, the rest are houses and one barn for the livestock raised there, mostly chickens but a few deer as well. there seems to be electricity, but no telephones, paved roads, or other signs of civilzation are around for miles. The people are friendly enough, many are locals, though some are drifters and outlaws accepted among the pumonca and their kin. the 15 include homid and feline kinfolk alike*

~setting~ Over the last few days some of the older kin and some of the animals at the place have started to get alittle sick. At first it was minor nothing that seemed to bad but it has slowly started to spread to the animals as well it started just a common stomach bug but now the older kin have red splotchs on them and some rash that seemed to start to spread on them the chickens have stoped producing eggs and the hunting around the area has grown scarse as fishing has also stoped being plentiful lately::

*returned from a trip to collect crawfish and crabs from pots, finding only dead animals, he carried them in a sack, knowing them to be sick, he was seeking out his pappy to try to see what he could make of it as things were too bad for even the felid not to notice..*

*tadi arrived, looking around*

Anika Duvernay (Feb 10, 2011 10:53:16 PM)
*Anika moved around the village with an air of someone who was both familiar with the place and welcome. As was common for the nubian woman when she was in the bayou for long periods of time she was clothed in battered fatigue pants and a dark sweater. Both oversized and stained with mud and other evidence of her misadventures. Her long dark hair was bound back into a thick braid which fell down the middle of her back and her clear skin was bereft of any cosmetics or the like. A frown furrowed her brow as she moved away from the older woman who had been confiding in her of their latest woes*

LeRoy Chatille (Feb 10, 2011 10:55:43 PM)
*a dark blue hooded sweatshirt, stained from rain with darker patches at the shoulders, the hood drawn up but his hair left down to frame his angular features, he moved with purpose toward the big house, he paused when he saw Tadi, and inclined his head* Made it I see..wish it were in better times..we got a sickness here. You know anything about medicines?

Tadi (Feb 10, 2011 10:56:23 PM)

*She scowled even darker* that would make sense, we eat the fish so we get infected, the livestock drink the water. This isn't going to be good if we can't work out what it is andhow to stop it, the whole village could be infected.

Anika..this one be Tadi, we don't get to really properly introduce, grandda sent me out to find her today, she just ended her kuasha and stand on her own two feet now. We no have the time for introduction now either. We need to go upstream and see where the poison come from

Anika Duvernay (Feb 10, 2011 11:08:39 PM)
Hello *She offered to Tadi before she crouched beside the elderly man and held his hand gently... She knew just how concerned he would be about not only himself but for all the kin who lived out here at the village*

LeRoy Chatille (Feb 10, 2011 11:08:55 PM)
*he gripped the old man's hand firmly, these lot were his family, even those not of the blood, he murmurs reassuringly* We gon' do what we can..Anika..you tell them boys to take the truck into town and get the water you like in the bottle so they don't be drinking water here, they need lots

Tadi (Feb 10, 2011 11:08:59 PM)

Anika Duvernay (Feb 10, 2011 11:12:50 PM)
Will do.. *She rose gracefully to her feet, her movements sinuous and effortless, striding purposefully towards where a group of the younger boys where congregrated she started to talk to them. After some moments she handed over some money and they keys to her pickup and sent them on their way.... quickly!*

LeRoy Chatille (Feb 10, 2011 11:13:41 PM)
*he shifted down to feline form, finally, and padded out of the house. he was moving for the stream from which they got their fresh water, to check it for himself with finely honed feline senses, giving the others time to come give their opinion as well, seeking to confirm it was the water that was poisoned8

*her fingers raked through her hair in agitation as she moved back into the village.. She paused a moment and lifted her face, sniffing the air momentarily before she too shifted down into her feline form and loped off after LeRoy, it was one of the joys that the vilalge fofered, the ability to run and shift as they so desired without fear.*

(will let anika catch up to you i figure she is gonna follow) ~as you follow the edge of the water you can see the vegitation not its normal color as it also was growing sick from the water and you do come across some dead fish and smaller animals that have died the fish you find look like they have burns on their body's that hav eleft holes in them and the animals also skin pealing away dead and almost like acid was eating their way out of the body::

LeRoy Chatille (Feb 10, 2011 11:44:49 PM)

Anika Duvernay (Feb 10, 2011 11:45:31 PM)
*She huffed at him, flicked her tail then leapt away a few feet and made her way further along the shore where another barrel beckoned to her. A low growl rumbled deep in her chest at the sheer affront of all of this, to have someone littering in this area, having so little consideration for the people and the animals who co-existed. It offended her deeply and would leave her in a foul mood for days.. Her pondering on how to move the thing was easily solved as she watched the other two so it was without concernt hat she emulated then and shifted up in order to help manouver the heavy barrels*

Tadi (Feb 10, 2011 11:46:13 PM)
