Welcome to Gaia! ::

Apoc cast a quick glance in Kobbeh's direction before redirecting it back down towards the street. Just a few more minutes...the right prey would come along eventually..

And it did, though not in the form of a man like Kobbeh had gone after, but rather in the form of a child, just approaching her teens. So foolish of the little one's mom to allow her to walk the dark streets alone, but it was to the tigon's advantage. Apoc's tongue flicked over his lips, the hybrid eager to fill his belly once more. He waited just a moment longer, the little girl stopping just below his rooftop to look at something, before he leaped off and dove straight down at the child. The girl didn't even get a chance to scream before strong jaws had punctured her jugular. In a matter of seconds it was over, the girl dead, and Apoc latching his claws and teeth into the corpse to fly it back up to the rooftop to feed.

*Kobbeh watched Apoc with a light smile. If she hadnt been full from the meal she just ate, she would have fought him for his catch too. Her eyes travled back to the street as she noticed people leaving the pup. Some noticed the blood stained ground and the paw prints around the area. Kobbeh mearly grinned as she watched them. She continued to watch them however, her smile growing larger as blood continued to slowly run down the snowy roof; a few drops falling down onto the street below*

K'iamari padded into the area, fairly far away from most of the action; he couldn't see much of what was happening, but he could see that some of the Hybrids were quite distressed, so he was keeping his distance. He lept easily on top of a small wall, folding his paws under him and laying his tail out behind him; hopefully the smell that entered his nostrils, the smell of death, would fade soon.

Feoren snorted, his breath coming out as a light vapor in the cold; he wasn't used to these temperatures, but they weren't very unpleasant. The Superticorn looked around, also sensing some sort of distress, but not smelling what K'ia had. Both Hybrids were close to each other, but where K'ia chose to stay back and see what would happen, Feoren started into the heart of things, toward the pub. He advanced at a slow walk, since there didn't seem to be anything interesting to go toward.

Polaris was worried that this whole scene could cause a sort of damage with the already sensitive tigoness. Taking a step or two back, carefull not to hurt Obsidia, the large tigon tried to keep incredibly close to her for comfort, "Let us leave this area..." His voice still came out in a whisper, as if he held a certain fear that others would grow upset if they overheard the conversation. Although unspoken, the tigon was angered that Mars had not remained close to his sister. Where was the brute anyhow, he wondered. Naturally, the earth house counsil member would have gladly led the female away, but he awaited a response from her, worried she would be frightened if he stepped too far off.

The small tinix only noticed the larger Tunilio bumping roughly into his darker brother. Slightly confused, Ciara brought herself forward to question the two of them. Afterall, it was nearly Christmas and the two of them would be better off without arguing, "Hey you guys..." her voice purred, a pleased smile on her face. Ciara had managed to keep her spirits up, despite the cold. A thick scarf that was wrapped snugly around her neck helped her quite a bit, "...Wouldn't it be better to smile and enjoy the season?" She continued, oblivious to what had previously been going on.

Layla followed her sister into the town, curious about the area and news about a group of hybrids gathering together. Like the many others that had brought themselves there, she could smell something wrong in the air. It did not take the pink ticorn long to spot the blood stained snow and after following the drips, she spotted both Apoc and Kobbeh over the remains of what looked like a human and younger woman. Sapphire eyes widened in shock as she took multiple steps back. Fear filled her entire body as she wondered why this sort of this would happen so close to the holidays. Had she known her mate was so near, she would have scurried to him for help, but instead she seemed to freeze, her eyes locked on the disgusting scene.

Emerald orbs still very wide, she nodded. She readily began to follow Polaris but not before taking a quick peek at Daniel and Tunilio. Worried that her presence may be missed, she was thinking of running over and saying a small 'hi' and then remain with Polaris. A small violet, tinix began speaking with them. She smiled, they'll be alright without her and she skittered after Polaris.

Danny glared at Tunilio, dang! Again, telling him what to do! He would very much like to slap that blue fuzz off Tunilio's maw. "Hmm?" he snapped out of his angry trance and looked about him for the unfamiliar voice. He could'n't see directly behind him for his bridle kept him uncomfortable close to it. He finally spotted her. "Hello? Uhm, who are you?"

Tunilio kept his brilliant blue viods on the fret of humans gathering around the scene. Ears back and tail thrashing behind him, he violently shook long purple locks from his mug. He barley noticed Ciara,
"Who are you talking to?" he asked Danny clearly aggrivated by just the sound of his brother's voice. he followed Danny's gaze to a small darkly colored tinix with brilliant violet wings, "Ciara? Well hello, Merry Christmas! How are you doing?" voice taking a sudden turn from vicious to kindly seeing it wasn't his annoying sibling speaking. "Yes, I should be happy about right now but due to recent events, I guess my mood will be a bit greyer than my pelt."

*shadows of kobbeh's other followers moved across the area. Most stayed within the cover of the shadows, but one could see the occational flash of eyes, claws and teeth as these faceless evil hybrids watched the gathering of humans.
Kobbeh knew that soon the word of what happened would spread and armed humans would be coming into the area. She was feeling quite devious tonight, however, and knew that Mayville was far enough out and so sparcely populated that they would be an easy target for her hungry followers. Her eyes flashed a violent green as she watched the humans eagerly; the hybrids in the area would also be a target if they interfeared. Kobbehs newly gained super ablities made her unstable, more violent and spontanious then she used to be, and this was a prime example.*

Layla had been frozen in her spot, eyes locked on the carnage before her, but the sound of Feoren's voice seemed to snap her from the trance in an instant. Turning her head, her eyes filled with hope that he would be nearby; she was glad to see he had come to her and remained close. His warmth was both comforting to her fear and her chilled body. To his question, she only nodded, feeling slightly shakey. She might have expected that the tigons would need fresh meat, but she could never grow used to it, let alone the fact that those tigons were not only eating meat, but humans. Eagerly, she tried to bring the two of them away from the site and onto the path that led through the other shops and buildings. Layla desperately wanted to leave that area, even if her siblings were there.

Polaris nudged her over to the side a bit, much like he might have done with a small hybrid kit. He wanted to make sure she remained clear of the blood spots on the ground and slightly in the middle of the path. If any hybrid chose to jump from a roof, he wanted to see it before it had a chance to get to the two of them. He noticed Layla and her mate had wandered off on the same path he was bringing Obsidia, it was comforting that there would be others there as well. Keeping behind, he let the two ticorns enjoy the company of one another and soon up the path, turned to the opposite fork that seemed nicely lit. Turning beside him to look at Obsidia, he smiled faintly, "Quite a night, eh?"

Ciara giggled a bit, watching the dark ticorn struggle to get a better view of her. Even if he could look behind, he might not notice her due to her very small size. Walking quickly beneath him, she appeared on the other side and sat before him with a grin, "Ciara, both Polaris' and Corann's sister." She seemed to beam with pride when she announced this. Upon hearing Tunilio, she took a short curtsey and giggled once again, "Well, I am fine, Tunilio, but it seems.." and the small hybrid looked around, "..that everyone is in distress? May I ask why?" Behind her was still the remains of Kobbeh's meal and blood littered the ground below the roof stop she still sat atop. Before they could answer however, she had began flapping her lavender wings and brought herself up to where they had been tied, "I am sure you both are very uncomfortable, " With quick use of her paws the two of them were untied.

Corann shifted his gaze from the scene up on the roof tops and looked in Tasaaki's direction. His pupils were dilated completely, much like the eyes of an excited cat stalking it's prey. After a brief moment, they widened slightly more, but not as much as usual. These minor changes in the cat's behavior gave him a much more frightening appearance. Lowering his head, he whispered to her, "...Tasaaki... you should probably go." A hint of kindness could be found in his voice, although it almost sounded like a threat. While his predator instincts had begun kicking in, he could sense something was wrong with everything - including himself. If Kobbeh grew hungry once again, he wanted to be sure the small foxen would not be around. With a deep inhale of the air around him, he quickly finished, "Ciara is just a few feet back with the ticorns... you should leave this place with her.."
