"Uh.... you know.... as much as I'd like to take off..... I'm kinda tied up at the moment....." said Maui sheepishly indicating all the vines and plantlife that managed to tangle her up and render her immobile.

Sarena hissed again, lower than before. She moved quickly, pushing Maui into position where she would not easily get up from again, and laid down her leg on her harsly, pinning her down. Saleysha would be the one to question and decide what to do.

"Gack! Oof!" Maui yelped as she was pushed and pinned down.
This was certainly NOT looking good for her.
"H-Hey! I was j-just passing through.....! I didn't mean any harm.....! I'm just a travaling inventor....!" Maui managed to say.

"Inventor?" Sarena asked hissing. She didn't know what it was, and the stench was really getting to her, evident by small coughing and hard breathing, trying to get as little scent as possible.

"Y-yes...! An inventor is someone who creates stuff to make life better for others.....! That's what I do....! I make life better.... for others.....!" Maui managed to say.

Sarena kept her pinned down, finally getting past of how badly she smelled to that she smelled, nearly exacly like Noah. And that meant Noah knew about her.
Confident that Maui wouldn't run, entangled like that, she stepped off her, but not before giving her a hard thrust with her leg. She went over to Noah in dominent position. "You smell exacly like her. Were you going to tell the pack about her?"
((Sleep for me, please to puppet.))

Seleysha wasn't giving any leeway. She growled at Noah, a sign for him to stay where he was, while she inspected the stranger who had tagged along with him. The smell of both lesser 'raptors was getting to the Beta female. She snorted to clear her airway, before stepping over to the 'inventor'.
"Passing through or not, you should've paid more attention to what your nose was telling you." She poked Maui's snout with one of her claws. "And we don't take kindly to strangers wandering too close to our nesting grounds."
*
Noah craned his head up at Sarena's question. He remained crouched in a submissive posture, poised to roll over in defense if need be. He still bore a mark from where one of the Omega males had bruised his rips earlier, kicking him to the ground.
"Of course I was. I wouldn't hide something like this." Secretly, he was glad Sarena had taken charge of questioning him, leaving Seleysha to be busy elsewhere.
*
Not expecting to be approached from behind, Azra spun around at the noise, simultaneously jumping back. Upon realizing who it was, he straightened up, half growling in exasperation. "Zuma!"

"I'm sorry.... Okay....? I don't have ANY interests in your nests anyways....! Nests are too boring for me unless it's the one I made to sleep in for the night before I move out the next day....! I'm a travaling inventor.....! I don't usually stay in one place for long unless I'm invited to stay.....!" said Maui.
She glanced over at Noah. She needed to help him out somehow.
"And him..... I accidentally ran in to him during my plantlife experiments when I wasn't watching where I was going....! It's super smelly and got everywhere....! It washes off, though.....!" Maui tried to explain.
In her mind, she kept her claws crossed and hoped like hell that her lie worked.
_____________________________________________
Zuma cackled with laughter followed shortly by Yuma who looped back around and caught up with his brother.
"The look on your face was classic!" Zuma howled with glee.
Yuma attempted a perfect imitation of what Azra would have looked like.
"Ha heh heh heh ha! That's the one, Yuma! Spot on! It was SOOOO funny!" said Zuma between chuckles.

"Don't make excuses for him!" Seleysha snapped harshly, baring her fangs. "He will explain for himself in due time and while he may be lacking in some aspects, I know he knows loyalty to a clan and does not lie."
*
"Hah hah," Azra replied unenthusiasticly, with an equally unamused look to match. "I'm just rolling with laughter over here." He paused to let his surprise wear off. "What are you two doing, playing pranks? I thought the Alphas assigned you to sentry posts at the river."

"It's NOT an excuse....! It's what really happened....! Other than that.... I'm just passing through....! I had no idea of this whole territory war you guys have before I got here.....!" said Maui.
______________________________________________________
"Well.... We were BUT we got bored. There was nothing to do and nothing cool happening... so uh... we made things a little more interesting," said Yuma.
Zuma nodded.
"Yup. Exactly that!" said Zuma agreeing.

Neonis had already let one trespasser off with a warning today. She supposed she could do the same. But then there was the question of whether or not Maui would leave for good. Useless as he was, Noah's future border patrols didn't need any form interruption. He didn't need distraction.
"You understand that I don't necessarily have reason to believe a word you say, right?" she asked, her tone much calmer but still underlaid with a threatening note. "In our neck of the woods, the Zeburi have little trust for anyone who is not one of us."
*
Azra rolled his eyes. Just typical. If he had the knowledge of it, ADD would be a term he would most definately apply to the twins.
"Whether it's interesting or not, you two both know the values of being somewhat useful nowadays. Word among the elders is that this is the worst tensions have been between the clans in some years."

"Well.... I really don't belong to anyone. I was kicked out of my clan a long time ago. I mean distrust is understandable.... but I don't mean any harm. I'm more of the peaceful sort who would much rather work on inventing stuff than going out of my way to hurt others for no reason. If you want proof that I'm a travaling inventor, take a look at the bag I have strapped to my back. All my inventions and cures are in there," Maui explained.
____________________________________________
"Yes, Azra," said both Twins in unison.
Yuma then piped up, "Remind me again... why do we not like that other clan much anyways?"

"Proof?" Seleysha repeated the word with a funny look. "Before this encounter, I'm quite sure I had no idea what an in-vent-tor even was or whether they even existed. Any proof you could show us would reinforce the notion you are different."
*
Azra tried not to sigh. History 101. He was always being called upon to recite it.
"Our two clans were once one and the same. The Zeburi ruled this territory, and no one lay claim to these forests and caves. According to what I've been told, the split between our kind came after several years of famine while disputing leadership and ethical relations with outsiders.
"The Alphas disagree over the basic right and wrong way of handling things. That's why we've stayed seperated. But now, with these rumors about a possible reunion flying around, everyone's on edge with at the idea."

"If.... if you help me get untangled, I can show you one of my most recent inventions. Something.... really amazing....! But you have to help me...." said Maui.
___________________________________________________
The Twins bristled at the idea of a reunion. They didn't like it what so ever. It meant that their past major pranking victems would ALL be in the same territory.
"Uh... we don't like the idea either! Nope! Sure don't!" said Yuma quickly.
"Y-yeah..... it'll.... it'll be less fun that way! Uh.... uh-hun!" said Zuma.
