She had set the fire a little before dusk. It was now blazing. Something to keep warm with at night. Xena rolled her eyes. Something to keep warm with at night was some peoples way of saying 'get a husband'. Xena shook her head, grabbed her sword, and stone and sat on a log. After getting comfortable; Xena brought her sword up and used her stone to sharpen it.

Hercules walked behind Xena and set by her. He was going to help her get the fire ready but since she didn't need help he just set by her and looked up. "Xena, are you alright? What are you thinking about?" Hercules asked her curiously, wondering what would she say. Of course he wasn't going to force her to talk, just let her speak when she felt like speaking as he wasn't the kind of guy to force anyone into talking to him if they didn't want to, unless it was a criminal of some sort then it was a different story all together.

As Xena was sharping her sword she heard the sound of footsteps. Normally she would have jumped to her feet and prepared to fight; however these footsteps had a sound that she knew; not just that but she knew also to whom they belonged. No need to even bat an eyelash.
"Xena, are you alright? What are you thinking about?"
Xena looked at Hercules with just her blue eyes; she hadn't move her head, yet. She just stared at Hercules quietly for a moment or two. As people that she crossed paths with knew, Xena was not known to be remarkably chatty. She was more the quiet type that would even pretend to listen when she had heard enough talking. Of course though if you were a baddy that she was after and seeking information things were definately different.
"You are chatty for a man. You know that right?" A retorical question. A Xena specialty. Xena was now in a more relaxed pose, looking right at Hercules. Her gaze then shifted to the fire as she answered. "I'm fine. As to what I'm thinking about; I do not wish to say. My mind can be a dangerous place." Xena continued to watch the fire dance a little bit longer. "Hercules, have you ever regretted knowing me?"
Where did that question come from?!
Well, some people that have met Xena wished they had not, even now that she was good. Things tended to come up and hit her between the eyes every now and again, as well as a few people that she met. Trouble. Also there was a time when she tried to cause division between Hercules and his friend, Iolaus. She was evil then, but still.

Kara had seen the camp fire while she was trying to light a fire of her own, she guessed that her lack of experience of living outdoors was starting to show. Muttering the kind of language under her breath that could make a Spartan blush she threw the sticks she had been unsuccesfully rubbing together and started to walk towards the camp, unsure of if doing so was a good idea.
By the time she had approached the fire Kara was feeling a little less nervous. The fact that the odds seemed to be only two-to-one were fairly good odds if the people were hunting her. Regardless, she moved her cloak to hide her gladius before pulling the hood down a little to hide her hair before stepping into the light from the fire.
"Do you mind if I sit for a while. I haven't been able to light a fire of my own?".

As Xena waited for Hercules to respond her senses started tingling; they were not alone. Xena perked up ready for action if need be. They were in a forest at night; that's when people loved to try and get the upper hand on the warrior princess, then again you still had others that liked to attack before day break. Either way Xena was ready.
She watched carefully as a figure made its way into camp. From the looks it was a woman. When the stranger came into the light Xena saw that it was a young woman; early or mid twenties perhaps. She was also thin. Despite that Xena was still a little suspecious of her, of course Hercules would or rather be more friendly and welcoming.
"Do you mind if I sit for a while. I haven't been able to light a fire of my own?"
Xena reguarded the young woman once more, and not bothering to ask Hercules she just gestured to the log across from them that was also near the fire. Always best to have someone you don't know and know nothing about be in front of you.
"Where do you come from? And what's your name?" Xena asked the young woman. She then put a hand to her; "Xena," using her sword Xena touched the tip of it to Hercules' shoulder; pointing to him. "Hercules."
Xena then went back to sharpening her sword while now watching the young woman and waiting for both Hercules and the new arrival to talk.

Kara nodded and pulled her hood back before sitting down on the log. "Hello, I'm Kara". She smiled as she started warming her hands and feeling thankful that she had stolen a outfit which was less skimpy than the arena outfit she had been wearing when she escaped from the ship which had been carrying her to her new owner.
Glad of the fact that most of the scars on her body were either covered or had faded with age Kara looked over at Herc & Xena, noting that at least she was armed although she would need to move around the fire to attack her, before taking the cloak off completely. She glanced at the tattoo on her arm guessing that they wouldn't recognize that the tattoo showed that she was supposed to be someone's property before smiling nervously as she realized she didn't know what to say. She was a little unused to small-talk after years in the arena.
