    The first time the doctor had met Sekhmet was when he was out picking herbs near the Shadowclan border. He had never bothered to go near it before, but was rather delighted to find out that there were clumps of thick vegetation all around the area. She had came up to him thinking he was a joiner, and even upon finding out that he just happened to be there, the vampire had chosen to stick around at chat with him. She was… flirtatious to say the least, and persistent at that. After answering a few of her inquiries and asking some of his own, he had eventually realized that she didn’t intend to leave and decided to excuse himself, thinking that they would never cross paths again.


    But it seems like fate thought otherwise, for only a week later he ran into her again, and unfortunately she seemed to remember him. This time he managed to escape after a mere sentence or two, but it was at this point that he realized that this was probably going to become a regular occurrence. So when they met for the third time he didn’t seem very surprised, and had even entertained her for a good while before leaving, this time with a warm feeling in his chest. Perhaps he was wrong about her.


    It was around mid morning when he arrived at the ShadowClan border, his messenger bag slung over his shoulder as always. He didn’t have a real reason to be here this time, not really. In all honesty, he was just waiting to see if Sekhmet was going to appear. It wasn’t that hard to occupy himself in the meantime though, and soon the golden retriever was slouched over a patch of vegetation, softly reciting something as he examined the plants in front of him.


    [A bit rushed! I tried to keep their previous meetings as vague as possible, but sorry if anything is off.]

    SEKHMET -  

    She was meeting so many different creatures lately, some she wanted to believe were fawning over her. But she couldn't let herself get carried away as life was never that easy. But she so loved having a good time and flirting was a way of getting it most times. She'd met this male before on several different occasions and the canine had at first not taken to her way of doing things but as time went on and they bumped into each other more and more it seemed that things were...becoming different. How different she didn't know yet but she was willing to bet that they were accustomed to each other now which proved to be favorable to her. Still, she had no intention of scaring him away because otherwise if she did she'd never make any friends. But it was a more cool day than usual when she caught his familiar scent and her head tilted to the side. Oh, was he here to see little old her? A wicked smile pulled along her muzzle before she made to get rid of it. It pleased her and excited her all at the same time to actually have someone here to visit her of all people. So the hybrid made her way over as quickly as she could, her small tote bag lightly smacking against her leg, tags jiggling. When she broke free of the thick overgrowth her ears lifted up just slightly to listen and she caught the soft murmuring. "Tigerlily? Did you come to see little old me? I'm highly flattered."

    The canine was still deep in thought when Sekhmet arrived, though he would allow a small smile to appear on his maw upon hearing her words. "That is indeed one of my reason for being here, Miss Sekhmet. I'm glad to see you're still cheerful as ever." Was his response, and a slightly amused one at that. She sounded rather pleased at his appearance, and while this was enough to make him break into a grin, he instead chose to keep his happiness at a minimum. Turning around to face the hybrid, he would quickly take in her appearance before letting out a small sigh and deciding to sit down. "I came to see how you are faring, and to perhaps ask you for a favor." At this point he would pull out a small notebook, which by now Sekhmet could probably identify as his plant journal and start to flip through the pages, eventually stopping at a section that was labeled Heliconia. "It's a flower that can be commonly found in the jungle." He explained, "I've been wanting to sketch it for sometime, and since Shadowclan happens to be situated in a jungle biome, I was uh- wondering if you would let me look around for it. It uh, shouldn't take more than an hour or two."

    To see how she was doing and asking a favor, well, well, well. This was a good day for her as she expected payment back whenever she handed out favors. Despite him being an ally there was always the permission when they needed to cross the border into their lands. One couldn't just willy nilly cross over to their heart's content. Her ears pulled forward just slightly and she allowed an easy smile to pull at the corners of her muzzle. "Well, I'm doing just right as rain at the moment. A little thirsty but nothing to worry about. As for the favor well, you'll owe me." She almost cooed the words, leaning forward a bit to pry into his personal space before she looked down at the journal he presented. He was looking for a plant well, that was new. No one really cared about plants anymore so she found this to be slightly intriguing, especially if he came all this way just to find one of them. Her nose wrinkled up a bit before she gave a sigh and looked back to where she had come from. "How is a plant more important than me? But sure, I'll let you come in to find it. But just hope you don't get sucked into some quick sand." Was she joking? Well, it could hardly be deciphered as she stepped back and beckoned with her thick forked tail for him to come on in and follow her into the dense territory filled with trees and low hanging vines.
