Welcome to Gaia! ::

Taxus continued to edge along between the first and second rows of flay, still very close to the fence. He was beyond the lettuce and the smell was almost overpowering here, but light as fresh dew on the grass. He didn't like it. He snuffled at the green foliage of the radishes he was beside and shook his head. Something...wasn't right. He decided to leave it alone.

Looking over his shoulder, noted where Faili was. She could smell it too and she didn't like it either. The owsla was nearby here, though, so he felt no need to rush back and comfort her. Instead, he continued to sniff, trying to place the smell in his head. He hadn't ever smelt it before, but it was unpleasant, like entering the burrow of a sick rabbit.

The thin chest of the older rabbit had been heaving until the end of their descent over the down, not in pain or lack of being in shape, but from the excitement that now pounded through her. It wasn't a pleasant enthusiasm. Instead, her serious expression only grew more placid as they reached the farm. Her attentive nature seemed perfect for this scenario, taking the words that Ginko had said and immediately gave him a understanding nod as her simple address to his request. Inle'arn looked over her group, the older ones, and then the younger Crow, and gave a nod, following off with them until the little group came to a stop and started getting busy.

Unlike the other members of her team, the doe hadn't immediately jumped into digging at the flay-rah. Instead she sat up on her hinds, peering out at their surroundings at a constant, her ears swiveling 360 degrees as she sniffed the air. Where there was man, there was dog. Certainly they couldn't go this whole ordeal without some sort of interference. Well, she hoped there wouldn't be any such problem, but Inle'arn prided herself in being a realist, and though she didn't expect something horrible to happen like a pessimist, she wouldn't blind herself to the possibility. While the others dug away, she'd keep watch, with only the exception of finding a carrot or two she would start to dig away at when she was certain danger wasn't lingering about.

Her good eye flitted over to U'tuhlroo and Crow, noticing their efforts beside them.

the smell he was catching made his stomach turn slightly, he didn't like it and he stretched his ears, straining to hear even the slightest sound to alert him of just what was about, usually if it didn't smell right, chances where it wasn't.
he carefully lolloped out behind Faili and Taxus, his big silver body wasn't the best camouflage but he kept low and sniffed about, wanting to be near the others should something happen. he searched the greenery for the perfect bit to bring home. there was plenty to be found, he could smell it all around.
cautiously looking side to side up and down and over his shoulder Blueflax seemed almost as if programed. his ears swiveled and his fur lay flat, his calm resolve made it easy for him to freeze still and listen closely.


as the stalk broke on the turnip the young buck gave up on it and mooved on. when suddenly Foxtail jumped and sought cover behind the group. Zo this Zelkova rolled his eyes, looked up at the 'monster' and scoffed "it's a man thing all right, doesn't appear to be alive, if it is, it is most definitely sleeping so hush your wheast you daft kitten!" he said sharply but in a hushed tone, wile he put on the front of a tough guy he too was confused by the metal man thing and he didn't trust it, but Foxtail's sudden movements where starting to irritate him and give him unnecessary jolts of panic. "and don't jump like that you'll attract attention" he grumbled sourly, he didn't like false alarms.

Whatever happened to be making the scent, the area seemed calm and silent enough for now. Still, the scent was an odd one and even the daftest of rabbit would know that there was something not right and danger was present, though none would know in just what form.

Ginkgo sneered at Foxtail's reaction to the hurdudu-thing and his ears flattened backwards. What a group of incompeten--- Well, they were new right?
"You three, look for flay-rah. I'll watch for elil."

With that, he picked a spot with at least some shelter, where the plants began to grow tall.

Foxtail jumped slightly as Zelkova snapped at him, nodding his understanding but still staring at the “monster”. It was only after Ginkgo spoke that he snapped back into reality and continued his search for flay-rah, “Yes sir. There must be some around here somewhere”. Nose once again in the dirt and twitching, Foxtail tried to forget about the monster; but part of him couldn’t help but feel like it was watching them.

Blueflax rose to his hinds, swearing he could hear something his eyes wide but the sound was far off. he worried it was one of the other groups but he decided to remain focused on his own group before breaking off on a thought. he ducked back down low and began to search again. he had hoped to find kale, his favorite Flay-rah, but alas, no such luck yet. a quick look to make sure Taxus and Faili where still near and he was back to sniffing and rooting about with his nose the


when Taxus adressed him however he quietly crept over to him and shook his head. "no, this is a new smell and I don't trust it. "



Zelkova sighed and went back to searching after Ginkgo's announcement, he decided to search away from Foxtail. but still close to the others. though the man thing hadn't bothered him as much as Foxtail he still threw a wary ear in it's direction

Inle'arn continued much in the same fashion, digging at the tops of the flay-rah and along the sides, but was more focused on their surroundings, pulling away from her work to peer about the garden. Nothing seemed too out of the ordinary, at least, not around her immediate area, and as she surveyed the others in her group, she wondered how well off the others were.

Finally going back to her work, she finally dug up a carrot, pulling it along with her as she settled to yet another carrot top sprouting from the ground.
