No One's POV-
"Dust?" Mare squinted his eyes at the smaller angrily.
"..." Killer stared wide-eyed at what he said, the hand slapped over his mouth falling as he made a run for it.
Mare quickly summoned his tentacles and tried swiping at Killer but just as it was close to catching him Killer maneuvered his way out. Mare screamed internally at the cubs escape.
The rustle of leaves and twigs fading into the deep forest. Mare growled and looked up at the sky.
"SO ALL THIS TIME THERE WAS ANOTHER CUB AROUND HERE!?" Mare yelled out loud, pissed and frustrated, as the cub called Dust could be dead by now. Being turned into quite literal dust.
So he walked forward, searching where Killer went in the first place. He needed answers.
But it wasn't easy to find them.
After an hour of searching he stumbled upon strange noises, the whir of a machine frightening him and making him hide behind a couple of shrubs and trees. As he peeked from the tree trunk he observed, Humans and Monsters were splashing big amounts of gasoline over the vegetation on the opposite side of where Mare was.
Mare's POV-
What is happening? What is that thing?! I sniffed at the air and cringed instantly covering my nose as a strange smelled filled my senses (gasoline). I then widen my eyes as a human lit up a bit of fire on a stick and threw it into the strange smelling liquid only for it to start a fire. I flinched as the burning heat from the fire reached even to my spot deciding to watch where the fire would go. With a last look I stare at one of the monster that lit the place up who was right beside the strange machine. The monster had an eerie feel to him, eyes sharp and malicious as it traced every tree. He pushed up his glasses and shifts to where I'm at, staring directly where I hid. At that moment I froze, I've never felt so afraid in my whole life. My tail stilled as the skeleton came closer and closer, his white eye-lights looking directly into my soul as he clicked his tongue. The scar above his left and scar below his right eye making his face even more uncomfortable to look at. My body trembled as my hand gripped at the tree trunk. My heart raising as sweat poured down my skull.
Who are these people, why are they doing this? My mind raged as the noises got louder and louder the foot steps of the monster stopping before looking at me. Some of the monster's white coat peeking from the other side of the tree.Everything stilled as the man slowly turned to at my side of the tree. I gulped.
"So there are more skele-lions still out in the wild?... Interesting..." The large skeleton chuckled slowly reaching out his long and creepy hands over to my figure but before he could grab me I ran away in my lion form.
The sound of paws and boots on soil rang out to my ears, everytime I went faster my heartbeat fastened. At some point I heard a loud bang and I looked back to see what it was but before I knew it, my right eye went blind. A stinging hellish pain crawling from my eye and blood dripping from my face. But I couldn't stop there, the rustling of the skeleton in white rang out from my blind spot and I panicked. My eye hurt so much that I couldn't move, my paws clamped onto my eye and I growled. As soon as the other skeleton came closer he took me from the back of my neck. I stared at him paralyzed by his touch.
"Finally, caught you" The tall skeleton licked his lips and pressed me to a tree, my lion form fading as my skeletal form stayed. The grip on the back of my neck changing to one choking me.
"Let go" I hissed and coughed clawing at his hand.
The monster poked at me, shifting around to take a look at my ribs. His hands curiously checking each one and grabbing at my spine eventually leading to my legs. A cyan blush spread across my face as I struggled against his grip. His hand sliding up and down as if examining, but the moment he touched my tail I yelped. In that exact moment I looked at him in the eye and kicked him off , sending him to a nearby tree. Then I started running again as the skeleton grunted and yelled for back-up, my pace picking up once I hear more people coming and another bang. This time the metal object swerving past my head and going through a tree.
My legs hurt and my eye burned, I had to get out of this situation and find a place to hide. I place where I can rest a bit before the fire engulfs the forest entirely. So I ran until I couldn't feel my legs the yelling of the monsters and humans after me fading into the background.
As I got away I panted in exhaustion, my body going back to my normal form. I looked out at the sunset standing on a big clearing with the flowers mother picked for me and... NIGHT! I forgot all about him! He most be terrified with the fire rising, even with mother there's no way! But... I also need to find Killer and Dust... what am I gonna do!? I scratched at my head in desperation and looked out into the burning woods, animals and enchanted creatures fleeing for their lives, only to be captured by the monsters and humans invading the forest.
I have to save the cubs. I stood up determined and scanned the area searching for any areas where the fire has yet to touch and I found it, the so called forbidden cave. Dam it Killer why do you always go into dangerous areas, I then run in looking around panicked. Then I heard a cry, from KILLER.
I raced over to the spot seeing another cub reaching out to Killer, his arms weakly grabbing onto the fur of Killer's lion form. Wait, was i... too late... no... there's still a chance...
Killer turned his head and gasped at my presence scrambling to pick up the other cubs limb body. I growl, " Killer put him down you moron, I'm here to save you for Pete's sake, I don't have time for this. For all we know the fire could've engulfed half way to this cave right about now! Not to mention I have my own brother to save, now please." I desperately order, Killer hesitantly laying the cub onto the cold hard cave floor.
"Alright little one, don't worry, I got you..." I quickly summoned those things again but in skeletal form and hold the cub close. But while waiting for the fragile cub to finish feeding I feel a tiny figure hugging me fearfully from the side.
"Mare what happened to you?! I stared at the cub huffing, grabbing a piece of my summoned tentacles and slapping it onto my injured eye.
"Nothing just-" I got interrupted a shaky hand grabbing at my chest, the face of the other cub scrunched up in fear and weakness.
"... can you get us out of here please, I have a bad feeling..." The other cub whispered trembling in my hold, I nodded staring up and still holding the cub called Dust up to my chest.
Killer looked back up at me and yelped as a tentacle grabbed him carefully. This time without a struggle I walked out the cave.
No One's POV-
"Let's go, I need to save my brother."So they left the cave in a hurry...
