Saika crept out of her destroyed teepee, hearing her Chief's call. She knew nothing about what happened, but went and buried her face in Myoa's mane.
Myoa smelled it too. Blood? What could that mean? Was someone injured? This was not good. Myoa could practically smell her friend's and family's fear, and there was definatly an evil feeling lingering about. "I fear for us all..." she mumured. She too shocked answer to the Chief's demand. She stayed slient, despite all the questions flying in her head. She turned her head towards Degewi, grateful for his presence. "I don't know..." she whispered, a tear falling down her cheek.

TsuWa breathed a sigh of relief as the sky lightened with the coming of day. The man glanced down at the small raccoon in his bloody, clawed arms; luckily her sleep had become peaceful at last. As the sunlight pierced the edges of his teepee's flap and slowly crepted up to his crossed legs, TsuWa nudged Taima a little to rouse her.
The raccoon blinked once and opened her eyes; suddenly the fear that had consumed her caused her to jump and scramble under a pelt. She watched her human winced as her claws once again sliced the skin on his arms and guilt made her look away. With the ominous sounds of the night, the coon had been held by the human, though she squirmed and tried to escape. Thinking back, she knew he wanted to protect her. Crawling up to him slowly she peered up at him as if to apologize.

Raising a brow, Chitsa was standing outside of her teepee near the lake when she heard the blood curling scream. Goodness. What was going on? She could tell it was near the village. Perhaps she would waken a few other soquili in her tent to go with her. A chill ran up her spine, it was not safe to be moving around here alone. She had no idea what was going on but her curious was sparked.
Running into the teepee she nipped at Aurorealis urgently. Wake up... Eventually he came about. "I heard a loud scream coming from the village Aurorealis. Come with me to figure out what is going on." She rushed out of the teepee and began to run.
Aurorealis was still groggy as she woke him up but he quickly processed what Chitsa had said. He rushed out of the teepee behind her and caught up to the mare.
Eventually they came upon the village and Chitsa moved through the village. Oh my god. Everything was ruined, the wonderful totem poles, the teepees were destroyed. Claw marks everywhere. What in hell had happened here? Chitsa ran over to Soquili's teepee.
Aurorealis was right behind her and stared in awe at all of the destruction. He began to wonder if they had caught the purpetrators. How could somebody do this without getting caught? Impossible.

Soquili Chief Tawadi sleepily exited his teepee but his eyes popped open when he saw the horrors of what lay before him. His beloved village was ruined. The arrowheads he spent all day making with the help of the youths were all chewed up by some kind of monster. It didn't look like the work of a kalona. ..but something stronger.
"My people! Evilness has awoke in the village. We must find out who has done this and destroy the evil!" he screamed out while holding his walking stick.
"Does anyone know anything about what happened? Speak up!" "Chief Tawadi, I have no idea what happened, but my baskets were chewed on and sprayed, one would think a dog would do such a thing." The elderly woman said upset for the baskets she had labored over.

Firefly snorted in disgust as she smelled the destruction around her, though it kept her quite curious as to what kind of Soquili or even if it was a Soquili that had done this. Her long tail gave a flick as she moved to stand by Chu's side, keeping a good eye and her ears open to the surroundings around them.
Chu's ears perked slightly then flattened her ears again against her head. She nuzzled Firefly's neck in comfrot as she closed her eyes. The smell of blood makeing her almost sick to her stomach.
She couldn't believe it. Could a Soquili truely of done this as the Cheif had said. Haveing seen the hoofprint from her view, her eyebrows furrowed lightly as she took a step infront of her own Soquili. What devil's creation could of done such a thing?

Soquili Chief Tawadi inspected the area around the arrowheads closely to look for clues. To his dismay, there was a soquili hoof print by some chewed up fragments of the obsidion arrowheads.
"My people.. has our friends the soquilis betrayed us?? Look there.. by my arrowheads. The culprit is a SOQUILI!" he called out with fear.
Alsoomse looked past Cualtzin to hear what Chief Tawadi had to say. She ran up to him. "Pardon me. But last night, there was alot of noise. Some sort of beast. Perhaps it wasn't exactly a Soquili that did this?" How could a soquili do this? She looked back at Cualtzin. who was standing there with part of the teepee in his mouth looking at her.

Kimi helped push the teepee off Nashota with the aid of Sgina.
"I won't tell anyone, I'm full of secrets," said Kimi with a wink. Kimi spotted Röt landing in the village. She remembered meeting him before. He was kind to her, but he had warned her about the dangers. Rahu had also warned her of dangers in the area.
"Sgina, we shouldn't travel alone," said Kimi. "I know you don't want to be with me, but this area is very dangerous."

EchoLimaFoxtrot Nagual shook her mane in amazement, this all seemed so unreal. As Yei echoed the two-legger chief, she neighed deep in her throat in worry and uncertainty. "I don't know, let's go see if the two-leggers know...." The mare walked forward to Chief Tawadi and saw the arrowheads. Bending down, she sniffed them and sneezed. It reminded her of what she smelled earlier. But... it all worried her too much to do anything.
When he raised his walking stick, Nagual flinched back and grumbled in her throat.
What she was met with however was something more putrid than she anticipated and something almost impure...it was a scent she had smelt before but couldn't quite place which caused suitable irritation.
"How could any Soquili be this destructive, even Kalona do not do this!" She whispered.

In the early morning light Salali rode in on Halloween's back having journeyed from her home in the mountains to do some trading however when she entered the village she was shocked to find it in almost utter ruins. Everywhere there was damage however it was not just any damage that could have been done by enemy tribes it looked like an evil creature had done the bidding. Salali brought Halloween to a hault and dismounted the calico mare. She quickly spotted the Chief Tawadi looking for someone who might know what had happened. If anything he might be able to find someone who knew something.

Lunathiel's thoughts were interupted by the cheifs accusations and gasped at the thought. She snorted then stepped forward a little upset and confused. "No way would a Soquili ever do this!" She snapped although she didn't know for certain. The ones she knew were kind and she could never imagine them, doing something so wretched.

"Surly you jest Tawadi!!! Soquilli's walk through here all the time, how could it have been a soquilli to do this?!!!" Nayuli was outraged for soquillis she held higher than any life even her own.

Hania felt rather than saw that his daughter, Aruna, and his niece, Mocha, were running next to him. Shimshek, the other mare, was following as well. All four of them reached the village, and upon first glance, all gasped in horror. Miakoda's body slumped against his, and he knew that his human had fainted. The terror and fright of the village, along with a feel of evil, radiated greatly. How could this have happened!?
The sound of her father's hooves spurred her sleepy eyes fully open, and the sound of Miakoda scrambling on his back caused her to wake, followed by a curios nudge that was Mocha. Mocha seemed to sense something, like her father did, and Aruna could only shudder. Something dark and evil was abound, was it? She hoped everything was okay... "C'mon, Mocha, we need to see what's wrong."
Mocha nodded quietly, and whimpered a bit. She felt the ever looming presence that was Shimshek watching them, waiting. "Okay, Aunty Ru," she whispered, nervous. She couldn't understand why she was so scared; she was never scared of the night; ever! So this was strange indeed.
Shimshek had been outside the teepee in a deep thought when Hania streaked passed her, carrying his two-legger. Now what's gotten into them? She quickly darted after the family once she noticed that, not only had Hania fled past her, but Aruna and Mocha had as well. She suddenly felt oppressed; the air felt wrong. What evil had come this night, she mused, that it would even make she, Shimshek, shudder in fear? Hopefully the two-legger village would be the answer.

Awakening quickly, Tifa blinked as she saw the faint shadows of Aurorealis and Chitsa running out of the teepee. She had decided to sleep early tonight because... things just didn't feel right. She had hoped it was just her gut but... obviously it was not. Forcing herself to wake up, she had lived in this peace for too long and wasn't as wary as she used to be. But this was definitely a reality check for her.
Finally it hit her. Something had happened by the village. She could hear a lot of commotion and things going around. Her thoughts raced to Cloud. Oh my god. She ran out of the teepee in the same direction as Chitsa and Aurorealis. She made it to the village and was just in disbelief. Everything. Everything was ruined. She saw the two fallen soquili and took a step back. What happened here? She stood and observed, trying to put the pieces together.

[ Lady Kiya ] Soquili Chief Tawadi inspected the area around the arrowheads closely to look for clues. To his dismay, there was a soquili hoof print by some chewed up fragments of the obsidion arrowheads.

"It could be any soquili.. that's all I know. There is a demon among us.. and I'm not talking about a kalona.. but I won't rule them out just yet. It could be ANYONE!"

Rot's nostrils flared as the scent of the perpetrators still lingered. It was a new scent that he couldn't place. It seemed like a horse mixed with.. fur? Sweaty, dirty fur.
The scent of urine hung in the air as well. It was as if.. these creatures.. were marking their territories. Rot didn't like that idea at all. The only thing that was particularly pleasing about the whole ordeal was the scent of blood.
The Kalona reared back on his hind legs and thrashed at the ground in anger. He felt very threatened by the situation. This creature, whatever it was, was either trying to show up his own race by being the new 'evil' in town, or was simply trying to frame the Kalona for acts they did not commit.
