Kestra blow a lock of hair out of her face as she crawled away after her cat. “This is getting ridiculous! “ She sat down and pulled out her PADD to see where she was now. So far she had gotten lost 3 times. Well maybe not lost just confused as to where they were now.

Savage hisses and turned around to whine at her. He wasn’t happy he hadn’t gotten to eat what he was tracking. She gave him a little shrug “not my fault you can’t find it. “ he switched his tail in Indignation.

So far nothing but they had gotten a glimpse of it 3 times and each time it had just vanished. Kestra raised a delicate eyebrow. “are you sure you’re a hunter?”

That comment earned her a yowl and he flip around to walk again. Kestra frowned well back to hunting. She needed another cappuccino and soon.

Her comm went off. It was Wilson he was on his hunt for the creature as well. “This darn thing is all over the place . Hate to say this but I think we have more then one.”

Kestra nodded and remembered he couldn’t see her. “yeah I have been thinking that as well. Honestly I think there might be at least 6 of them. How did they get on the ship and what are they up to.? I do have a mission to go on very soon . It doesn’t look like I’ll have this thing back in its cage before I go.”

“Did you report this?” he asked her.

“I sent in a report.” Kestra frowned as she rounded a corner. Darn it now she had lost her cat.
“Savage!” Looking at the PADD again to see his little red dot on the screen. She started crawling in that direction.
