Re-wind blinked once. Re-wind blinked twice. Having emerged from the dark, dark cave, it was becoming evident that the creature in Stealjaw's triumphant grip was not, in fact, a nauga.
"Oh," she said faintly, in surprise, "it's an owlcat. Oh dear. It's probably someone's pet. Um. You'd better put it down, Stealjaw."
With considerable reluctance, Stealjaw relinquished his prize.

Oh so very close. Awful nearly had that biting creature in his grasp, to be thoroughly torn to shreds, when his hunt was interrupted by the idiotic barking of some oversized mutt. The Owlcat skidded to a halt and answered the barks with a low, angry hiss. However he did not anticipate the Eaglehound’s next move and when he was suddenly plucked up, he went instinctively limp Steeljaw’s firm grasp.
He was not quiet for long. As soon as he was dropped to the ground at the entrance, Awful let out long, angry yowl. Fur fluffed out, the little Owlcat launched himself at Steeljaw all claws at the ready.
Alerted by her pets screeching, Bang burst from the darkness. She took in the scene with a quick glance, gaze murderous. If Awful had not been so close to the Eaglehound, Bang would have attempted to kick the creatures head off.
Denied that she turned her attention on the two Kimeti; stomping a hoof down and giving them a look that clearly meant business. “If Awful gets hurt, I will kill all of you.”

"Oh no, Stealjaw, don't fight it, please," Re-wind entreated as the ruffled owlcat came claws-first at the eaglehound, "its owner will be along any second, and it'll all be okay." That was the end of her instructions, as a strange - very strange! - bone-creature stalked out of a cave towards the muddied Acha, and entirely distracted her from the ongoings. Alas, poor Stealjaw, but he was very well-trained, and acquiesced, only dodging the snaps and batting away the blows, a low, loathing growl rumbling in his throat the whole time.
She was just marvelling that the bone-creature could speak - a sentient species she had not heard of? An unusual mutation of a familiar cousin? - when a very. Very. Angry doe flew out of the same cave she had. Those red eyes flamed, and her tone was unmistakable. Re-wind gulped. She was not good with confrontation. "Oh, please do not worry," she started, anxiously and earnestly, "your dear little owlcat is unharmed! It was all a big misunderstanding - you see, we'd thought we were face-to-face with a real live nauga. It's a mythical breed, you know, so its capture would mean tons to the scientific community, and we thought to study it in the light! But, of course, that turned out not to be the case."

"...the biting things were the only fun." He was still growly, tossing his head to open up the caiman's mouth, so that his own acha head showed through -- red and black and gold and furious, still, as te stomped cloven hooves against the floor. 'Cause could throw a hissy fit with the best of them. Better than, perhaps.
"Well. And maybe the bugs. Those were fun too." A few of them, now, were crawling out of that room, one giant wasp fluttering up over their heads. It made his annoyance melt a little, expression softening.
"...and the hallucinogenics...those were a good time, for what I could see." And now, actually, he smiled, taking a few steps in that direction to see what he could see.

It took a moment but Bang eventually realised that her fellow doe was a moron and while Awful Sound was doing his best to cause some damage, it was not being reciprocated by the Eaglehound. “Awful… Awful… Awful! Enough!” Attempting to get the Owlcat’s attention, Bang added an angry hoof stamp and hustled forward. She bumped the smaller creature with her leg, sending him tumbling sideways with an angry shriek. “Stupid creature, you weren’t even hurting it properly!”
Not that Bang was any happier now; she had no idea what this stupid female was going on about, with her science and nauga nonsense. And then of course there was the buck…
Bang turned on Pieces with an angry snort. “What are you babbling about?” Normally she would be simpering and smiling coyly at any male presence, but she couldn’t be bothered playing that game right now. Wait a moment, had he just called her his… no their sibling? “Don’t be ridiculous.” She hissed at him with an extremely nasty look in her eyes.
Now that she thought about it, there were obvious similarities between them all… but still… “No.” Bang was distracted by the slinking of Awful as he tried to sneak past her to get at Steeljaw and she stomped a hoof in his path. “I will crush your head in Awful, do not tempt me.”
The Owlcat yowled unhappily and glowered at Steeljaw; making various mental notes to kill the Eaglehound in his sleep.
