[center][h2]Hunters[/h2][/center] [hr] The trip on the boat was fairly uneventful ignoring the chatting and accidents that went down by the cooking pot. The seas were kind all the way until they reached the river, it was now that the hunters would get their first real look at the island. While this first look would be of swampy mangrove it was beautiful in it's own way. The drooping willow tree leaves hanging over the rivers edge, so of the branches extending far enough to reach the boat itself. [color=olive]"Would you look at that. Magnificent."[/color] There would be a good few hours of sailing before they got to their destination at the end of the river, the journey would be mostly peaceful bar a few monsters giving the boat a dirty look. That was until a few Remobra decided to descend upon the boat. [color=olive]"Oh that's just perfect! Hunters! Deal with these pests! Everyone else back to your cabins!"[/color] Berillius maintained his position at the wheel of the boat, having to keep the thing heading down the river safely. There was around 20 Remobras circling the boat, most of them flying out of blades reach and hurling globs of poison onto the deck. There were a few that had landed and were hissing and fighting one another as the headed towards where the food and cooking pot were. [hr] [center][h2]Yurel[/h2][/center] [hr] Scrap would look up at Yurel, still obviously on edge he got to his feet and shook himself off. [color=orange]"I-uhhh. Sorry about that, those things are just... So scary, I thought I was going to get spotted for sure."[/color] With that said Scrap would head off with Yurel, the pair of them having to really pick up the pace to catch up with Sauron who at this point was running at full speed. They would follow the tracks of the Duramboros herd for a good few minutes before they found their first panicked animal, an Apceros that was separated from its herd in the panic. Sauron stood there crouched down behind a rock and looked back at the pair. [color=darkkhaki]"Scrap, Yurel. You two get it's attention, make it focus on you. When that's done I'll come in from the side and knock it down. After that we go for the kill. Alright move!"[/color] Sauron would say his tone commanding but not in a nasty way. Then Sauron would make himself scarce, heading around and looking for a position to properly flank the Apceros. [color=orange]"Lets try not get our heads knocked of yeah Yurel, heh heh."[/color] Scarp fidgeted nervously as he looked at the stampeding Apceros. Scarp let out a quick whimper before running at the armored herbivore, barking and growling at it making sure to keep his distance. [hr] [center][h2]Ten[/h2][/center] [hr] Ten's short legs would betray her as the clattering of claws on ice and snow grew closer and closer. Then suddenly the clattering would be over powered by the mixed sounds of crashing ice and a roar. It seemed that the creature was a Lagombi, and a mad one at that. Ten seemed to have some awful luck, ending up in the middle of a battle between a Lagmobi and a Giaprey pack. But perhaps this could be used to the young Zarmite's advantage, if the Lagombi took our a Giaprey or two then that would be another easy meal perhaps even enough for a small spurt of growth. But if a few of the Giaprey decided they wanted to go after Ten instead of the Lagmombi, then she'd be in major trouble. [hr] [center][h2]Swiper[/h2][/center] [hr] It looked like Swiper's egg swiping experience wasn't failing him, the Pink Rathian only stirring slightly as he reached in for the egg. But it was that moment that the ground began to shake a little. Something big was coming, or lots of big something more accurately. The tremors didn't seem to be bothering the Pink Rathian yet, so Swiper had to make a quick decision. There wasn't much time before whatever was making all that noise got here and the Rathian was woken from it's slumber. Run? Take the egg? Both?
