I sprint throught the woods, trying to find Anita. I skid to a halt. Should I've gotten Hopsfly? Did it matter if they got one skin-changer? Of course! Well she wasn't just a skin-changer... she was.. Anita..
I sprint through the woods and burst into a clearing, there she was. Anita was lying on the ground shoulders shaking as she tried to get on all fours. "Anita!" I say and run over to her, helping her up. She shifts into a small squirrel and clutches my scruff. I carry her back to the Red Oak.
I watch through the trees. Yes an odd place for me. But I must get those two. I would enjoy getting them all. But them, they go out often. Even after the attack. I watch them watch a deer and take it down together. This is bad! If Nishuta knew how close they were getting.. I shake my head to rid of the terrors that follow up that. I jump into the air. My black wings stretch out and I follow them from above. I follow them and they split up for a bit to flank another deer. This is my moment to try again! I dive forward and grab Anitas' neck. I bite hard. Her blue eyes roll back. I wonder what to do with... it. I just bury Anita like prey. I charge after Kanuta, there he is. Watching the deer herd waiting for Anita. I grab his scruff and fling him into the stony background behind us. He too, crumples and a bit of blood trickles by his ear. I re-dig Anita and slowly fly back to where Nishuta waits.
I check each claw, When was that over-privileged beast, Burta, coming back with them! I hear a tap on the bark and it shift. "Well? I've been waiting all night! Have you failed, again, Burta!?" He slides a paw forward and bows his large scarred head. "I have them in the center of the territory." "Perfect." I walk into the pebbly center of territory and by the pond are the two skin-changers. Them, thinking they are so great! Thinking they can overpower us!? Well. What if we burn and drown everyone of them! "Do you have the vines, Kinka, Burta?" "Yes my lady." They say in union. "Tie them to the oak in the middle. Their weight should make them slowly, fall into the water. They each grab a vine end and a idea hatches, "N-Not yet." They look at me and release vines clamped in their jaws. "You have the red-sticks right?" I ask. "Yes, so your not going to drown them? " "Oh. I will."
