"Oh No! It's Danse, my messenger Jack rustling the grass, trying to bring me a message! Be prepared! He has company!"
There was no mistaking the low growls of the hunting dires, and although they had no interest in the 2 humans and Jaders, they kept a keen eye on the Jack, she called Danse.
Obviously, this message must be important, for Danse Macabre only did his signature "Dance of Death" he was named after in matters of Vital importance.
More pairs of eyes appeared in the forest, joining the first Dire. The moonlight night making their eyes glow as if the moon itself sought to help the 2 humans and their Jader Pack.
Danya and Eclipse also stood, and she could tell this was NOT going to be fun.
She dreaded this day when the growing Jaders would have to face the reality of Eldemore.
Oh, how she wished that she could protect them in the temples of the Oriental Isles like their Imperial ancestors were, never to face these situations!
She glanced as Danya slowly inched towards Sanguine who stood, warning the Feral dires with a flick of her tail and menacing Barks. It was kinda funny, Dan tried to mimic the Blood Moons stance, as well as her mannerisms. At least Danya had chosen an excellent teacher, one of her own. There were some things She could not teach the pups, and perhaps Sanguine will be able to help teach the ways of Jaders and Life in Eldemore as well.
Eclipse also was poised to fight, if need be. He crouched low, glancing at his little sister who seemed to be more intrigued with the Blood Moon Imperial than the Impending danger they may be in.
The feral dire Pack, too hungry to heed the Warnings of Sanguine, bolted into the meadow, intent on having Danse, the jackalope for dinner.
Of course, Danse did his maneuvers, for which he was well known for. It was his "Dance of Death", and he had not lived this long without it.
All Hell broke loose as Danse seemed to be everywhere, feral Dires were all over trying to chase, and Eclipse seemed to disappear in the fray.
The sounds and barking of the hunt, as well as Eclipse's menacing howls trying to detour the Feral dires filled the air.
She Immediately stoked up the fire for protection and yelled across the chaos that now ensued.
"Korono! I'm going after Danse, and help Eclipse fight off the pack of Dires!"
She took off, and unbeknownst to her, Danya left the safety of Sanguines guard to follow.
