Arrisa continued through the forest, and her stomach growled a little. She ignored it and pressed on. She stopped when her paw landed in a puddle of....Blood? It was hot and slick, but Arissa couldn't quite make out what it was. It was dark in color, but it didn't smell like blood....Wondering what it was, she followed the trail of the strange dark liquid. Eventually, it stopped at a tree. She could smell more of it up above; thinking it might still be in the tree, she rammed her shoulder into the trunk of the tree. Something wobbled up above, then finally fell to the ground with a clang. She blinked, realizing it was one of the birds. So, their blood was black? Arissa stared at the thing laying on the ground, wondering what she should do with it. Should she leave it? Or maybe she could find something out about the other birds from this corpse. I'll take it to Kite and the others, she decided. Maybe he'll know what to do with it. Careful not to deal further damage to the metallic beast, she picked up the bird and carried it back through the forest, having to stop several times so she could manuver the thing around trees and branches. She was glad, though, that it seemed like the other birds had avoided her for the time being.

[[ I'm really sorry that I have been away for such a long period of time without stating so, but life has sprung a few uncalled for surprises on me. Could I pretty please get a short-ish recap of what I have missed? My character is Kry. ]]

In summer I can taste the salt in the sea,
There's a k i t e blowing out of control on a breeze...
Kite stared intently at Aurora, willing her to return to normal. He knew his wishes were probably in vain, but he had to try. The healer barely noticed the loner race past him until he saw a wolf charge into Aurora, bounce off her, and begin to draw her away. "Just run!" Whining softly, he hurried towards the healer, his tail swishing nervously. He couldn't let anything bad happen to him. He was a healer, he was supposed to be looking after the injured wolf, not the other way round! What would he do if Aurora caught the loner? It would be all his fault! So when Aurora glared in his direction, and the set off after the male, Kite had no choice but to take chase and hope the male was fast. Extremely fast.

They had only been running for what seemed like a few yards, and then Kite heard a nasty-sounding crack coming from the direction he had watched Aurora take. "Don't roll too much, you'll rub off your paste." He murmured at the loner as he passed him, dropping back on his haunches beside the collapsed Aurora. Poking her face gently, he checked for any broken bones. After finding none, he raised his head again, letting out a sigh. "Well, this has been interesting. But I really do have to go, I'm sorry. If you need any more paste, just come and find me. I should be around somewhere."
I wonder what will happen to you,
You wonder what has happened to me.
( Burrr, this is a bad post. I'm sorry. )

((Black Rain, there's a tiny recap a few posts above the one you made.))

manga ;;

When the other wolf ordered him to stop rolling, Manga stopped, raising his head above the grass tentatively. He stood, shook his pelt, and then began grooming it. He was a mad groomer when he could be, Manga, he was just as vain as a cat was -- he had to make sure he was at his best, even if he was a horrible mess right now. After some preening and disgusted faces at the paste still on his wounds, Manga hobbled over to where Kite and Aurora were, his tail swishing.

"Is she alright? Can you stand?" Manga asked.

He wanted to ask more, but then a screech echoed in the sky. Manga looked up and saw more birds hovering above them, ready to strike. "We all have to move!" he cried urgently, and began prodding under Aurora's chin. "Come on, come on--!" he urged her. If anything else, they would probably end up running away along with the healer.

Aurora's head swayed groggily, groans escaping from her agape maw. She looked up wearily, blurry vision producing two Manga's in front of her. She groaned... One was enough trouble. Her nose was clogged with the dull scent of forest dirt now, and her bloodlust proved no danger to the wolves around her. She attempted to stand, her bones creaking in resistance, shaking dirt and leaves loose from her matted pelt. She stayed sitting, to weak to try to stand again, her vision adjusting to the forest around her. She shook her head, clearing it. She breathed with her mouth, and could feel her gills stinging with pain. She winced, and saw out of her peripherals that she was bleeding a bit from them, and that the impact must have injured them. Her body tensed with the thought of dirty gills, and she feared infection.

"I'm fine..." Aurora mumbled, wincing "For the most part..."

As her memories returned to her, she was filled with regret. "I'm... So, so sorry..." She stammered, at a loss for words. Her eyes were apologetic, though, and she shuffled her feet awkwardly. She looked down at her paws uncomfortably, averting Manga's eyes. That's when she heard him say "We all have to move!" Her eyes shot up to the sky, where she could see the birds circling around them, every so often glancing down, screeching, and getting closer. They flashed their talons once, opening their beaks to an unnatural size, and she brought herself to a standing position, her adrenaline fueling her body. She flashed one look at Manga and said "We have to get to more wolves. We don't stand a chance on our own."

(( Where are they currently? As for my character Manga and the two wolves he's with, Aurora and Kite, we're in the clearing and planning to escape some birds that are coming. Maybe your characters can be running from birds and end up in the same clearing we are in.

Also to Sakorian > Erp, is Shutter in the same clearing? XD And to Murai > is Arrisa in the same clearing as well? ))

( Alright. Conan was running, I think. >.< )

Conan

Conan leapt over a stream, barely clearing the obstical. He was slowly running out of endurance and speed to outrun the gathering swarm of strange birds behind him. Their sounds filled his ears, confusing his senses. He let out a frustrated growl, instantly regretting it. His rythem was thrown off by that one sound and breath of air. He let out a gasp as he struggled for a breath. Trying hard to regulate his breathing, he slowed his pace. The terrifing noises behind him got louder, and he sped up, only to find he could barely breathe once more. Suddenly, the forest seemed to drop away from him. He slowed his pace once more, dazed, until he realized what had happened. He was in a clearing now, and what was that scent? Wolves? Had he found some of his packmembers. Gasping for air, he swiveled his position, his ears angling forwards to catch the sound of his packmates. "H-hello?" He called, taking deep, gulping breaths as he spoke.
