"Leg it is," Latch blurted out. Latch fired up his eye and fired it at the desired location, hoping to do some damage to it.

The Frothos certainly felt the laser hit. It wailed rearing onto its hand legs with its front limbs flailing. It soon landed on all fours again. It turned and charged at Reggie and Latch.

Hotaru saw the beast and had a plan. "Hey, Sarkaras," Hotaru called out. "If we work together, do you think we can topple that thing over?" Hotaru was pretty strong, and he felt if he had help from someone even stronger they might have a chance.

"ONE MOMENT!"Sarkaras called. She was else where, with a large bundle of bladed weapons being held under her arm, and a small bag full of small two limbed frog-like aliens. She ha small cloth wrap, and was scooping it through a flower which seemed to have soem sort of liquid i nit, with various red particles. She soon returned to the Frothos's nest. With out hesitation, her foot smashed into one of the eggs with a loud audible crack.

The Frothos froze when it heard the crack. It spun around, seeing Sarkaras with her foot in one of its eggs. It roared in rage and charged, only to be met by Sarkaras throwing the bag with the liquid in it. Teh bag it, tearing open and splashing the liquid into the Frothos's face and eyes. The Frothos roared and stopped alomst instantly, shaking its head and trying to get the liquid off. Sarkaras took this moment to go over to her companions. She stet he bag of frog-like aliens down, and stabbed the frogs with a weapon, handing the now frog-blood covered blades to her companions. "These are Tarixx. They're a common pest with very potent blood. It's toxic and corrosive. I will distract the Frothos, while it's distracted you sneak under it and stab it in the stomach. The blades will cut through its bare flesh, and the blood will poison the beast and eat away at its flesh."Sarkaras said, keeping a large sword for herself.

"Did you have to destroy it's egg!?" Hotaru shouted. "I want to get away from this creature, but what you are doing is murder! I refuse to kill that thing, there must be another way to get away. After all, you already killed one of its children, and you slaughtered two innocent creatures that didn't want to be dragged into this! Plus, I hate how sapients can call certain creatures "evasive" or pests when they themselves are often times evasive creatures."

"Bawk bawk bawk BAWK! Chicken! Wimpy Bear!" Latch taunted.

OOC: I figured why not, maybe Hotaru could be a lover of nature.

"Yes I did, how would I get it's attention otherwise?"Sarkaras said flatly. "And no, we can't escape it. It would simply follow us until it got to us and killed us. Especially since my foot is covered in the remains of the egg."Sarkaras added. "Now, once the creature raises its tail, you move udner it and stab it in the stomach."Sarkara said, heading over to the Frothos, which was still thrashing around in pain.

"I'm not killing it!" Hotaru shouted.

"Dance for me, Bear!" Latch shouted. Eventually, Latch started to shoot lasers near Hotaru's feet, causing him to rush forward every time. Closer and closer, Hotaru neared the Frothos beast. Latch was putting him in a position where Hotaru would kill the thing even if he didn't want to.

OOC: Plus, I do have a heavy dislike for human bias and hypocrisy that we kill evasive creatures, yet in a lot of areas WE are an evasive species. I don't want this to be an RP where just about every animal gets killed.

"Dude, knock it off."Reggie said. "If he doesn't want to he doesn't have to help kill this thing. By now Sarkaras had gotten to the Frothos, who was only now able to see. It roared at her, snapping its jaws. It was about to ram her.

"La la la, not listening," Latch shouted as he continued to fire lasers at Hotaru's feet.

Reggie frowned, a large orange shield forming on hsi arm. He then put it out infront of Latch, stopping the lasers from firing. The Frothos charged forward, letting otu a deep below. Sarkaras held the blade out. The Frothos shot forward. The blade soon pierced the beasts eye. The Frothos halted and let out a loud pained roar, throwing its head in the air and trying to shake the blade out.

But Latch had already completed his task. At about the same time Sarkaras had pierced the beast, Hotaru did as well in a different location.

"DAMNIT LATCH!" Hotaru shouted. "You're dead for this!"

The Frothos roared, swinging its tail. While the poison and blade certainly had an effect, it would take the others to actually kill it. "So we go now?"Reggie asked, getting a nod from Sarkaras. Reggie headed forward, managing to get infront of the Frothos ready to stab it in the stomach. However, before he could several smaller blades were thrown from the brush, stabbing into the Frothos, alongside a number of other spears, arrows, and throwing weapons. The Frothos roared, soon falling on its side. The other blades were coated in the same poisonous blood as the blades Sarkaras had used.

Oop: Would you be okay if Latch's laser eye was momentarily broken? It'd get fixed in a few more posts.

OOC: Only if it's okay for Hotaru to feel the need to nurse two Frothos eggs to hatching out of guilt.

"Huh? We have company," Hotaru responded.

"Yah don't say!" Latch shouted sarcastically.

Oop: Alright, he might need to convince the others though and he'd have to carry them.

Soon several large beasts came out of the brush. They all had armored plating, similar to the Frothos, but their wolf-like appearance and arched backs made a clear distinction between the two species. On their backs were K'zayl hunters. They were all wearing light armor and were carrying spears, throwing knives, hatchets, etc. "Who are you outsiders?"One of the Riders asked, before noticing Sarkaras. "What are you doing here? You were banished."The K'zayl said, pointing her spear at Sarkaras. Before Sarkaras said anything, the rider barked out more orders. "Capture them! Queen Yterra will know what to do with them."The rider ordered. With that, the others riders began to approach the group, soon circling around them.

"I wouldn't try that," Hotaru said. "Do you really think you can take on a Panda Bearon? You know what we are capable of, right?"

"Not to mention my laser eye," Latch responded.

"Do you have any idea what we are capable off? I have killed beasts that would devour you with my bare hands."The Rider Leader said. The riders seemed to be confused by Latch's mentioning of a laser. Unlike msot space farring races, the K'zayl weren't even in their 'mideval' time period yet, still relying heavily on their tribe mentality. The only true tech they had came from alien visitors to Tyrose.

"...Sarkaras, explain to me how you managed to find a space ship while the rest of your race seems comprised of savages?" Latch asked.

"Shut up Latch," Hotaru blurted out. Suddenly, Hotaru looked at the Frothos nest and saw two eggs left. Hotaru walked over to the eggs and grabbed them.

"Move. Now, or we'll kill all of you."The Rider Leader commanded.

OOC: Okay, what's the game plan?

Oop: I figured Latch would fight back, resulting in the destruction of laser eyes, and the Rider's would take our characters to their tribe.
