OOC: I'll be gone for a few days to visit my granpa. Don't panic over me.

"They couldn't catch me again," Tiberius wrote.
"They got lucky first time."

"Well, they can always get lucky a second time."Jackie said. "You also can't talk in this form, so what if we have to stop by a village but everyone assumes you're a monster? I'd be able to calm them down. I think."Jackie added.

"Do they not dislike you too?" Tiberius wrote.

Jackie shrugged. "I dunno. Maybe. But it'd help if someone was able to talk to them and explain things."Jackie said. "If people are lobbing spear at you and smacking you with swords that's not really a good time to write something in the dirt."Jackie said.

"Then my only option is to set things right," Tiberius wrote.
"I must return to my colony."

"Okay."Jackie said. "Until I can get things worked out with my village, I think I'll tag along with you."Jackie said. Soon something caught her ear. She looked over her shoulder hearing, squeals and the sound of hooves hitting the ground.

Tiberius started to look around for the source of the noises. Although he had widened vision, his color vision isn't that good, and it seemed like whatever it was was hiding, and Tiberius could not see them.
This would be a good time
to wish I could speak," Tiberius wrote.

Out of the Brush trotted a Wild Boar. Surprisingly it was just below eye level on Jackie. Sitting on its back was a Dragon-Psrrot, who was cleaning its feathers. "Pigzors? Pete? What are you two doing here?"Jackie asked. She was quiet for a moment, before her eyes widened. "Stay here."She said. She unzipped her Pj's and stepped out of them. Out of her Pj's she was wear a large grey cotton shirt with baggy shorts. Her tail was thick and looked to be kind of heavy. Her ears were long and pointed, and didn't have any lobes.

Jackie clenched her fists and a pair of short, but incredibly sharp claws came out between her fingers. She jabbed them into a tree and began to climb up it. She lookedo uti nto the forest once she was up high enough, though her vantage point didn't provide much of a view of the forest. However, she could see dozens of lights in the forest heading in their direction. "Ah crap..."Jackie said, before climbing down. "We gotta go!"Jackie said, putting her pj's on again. She hopped onto Pigzors's back and held onto his tusks. "Let's go"Jackie said, sitting in an amusingly awkward position on her boar.

Tiberius decided that now was the time to get back to the burrow. Tiberius lead the way and tried not to go too fast so Jackie could keep up.

Pigzors was able to keep pace with Tiberius. Jackie glanced behind them. Thankfully, the others from her village didn't seem to have mounts, as their lights couldn't be seen at all. A loud call echoed from above Jackie and Tiberius. Jackie looked up. Her heart sank. Through the gaps of the tree tops she could see an Azure Woodlands Draco-Avias. Draco-Aviai were a species of bird dragons her village had learned to tame. They were very easily the largest creatures in the area, only being rivaled in size by true dragons, which were rare in the forests. "We gotta keep in the forest!"Jackie said. "Try to find narrow paths!"Jackie said to Tiberius.

...There was one problem. Tiberius was a huge creature, incapable of hiding well. He could get down on all fours,which would help him run faster and keep in the shade, but it made it harder to steer his body, and he kept knocking trees over in the process.

Jackie had Pigzors turn down a pathway. It was narrow, but Tiberius could fit in it thankfully. "C'mon!"Jackie called.

OOC: You said you wanted someone to be wounded this scene?

Oop: I did, but It'll happen further down the road. The guys following Jackie and Tiberius on foot are too far behind them to do anything, and the guy on the Draco-Avias doesn't have a clear enough shot to do anything, and the Draco-Avias is too big to land in the forest without knocking trees in, which could potentially hurt the bird.

OOC: So... just fast forward to Tiberius' colony?

Oop: I actually planned for Jackie to get hurt soon. I planned for them to get out of the Forest and for Jackie to get hurt before they got to Tiberius's colony. If you'd go ahead andm ake an IC post, I can get things sped up in my next IC post.

Eventually, Tiberius was able to outrun them. It didn't feel like the ones in the air would be able to touch them where they were. Still, they were still a ways from Tiberius' colony.

"I think we got away," Tiberius wrote on the ground.

Jackie climbed off of Pigzors, looking up. She didn't see anything moving above them, aside from regular birds and such. "Yeah I think we lost them."Jackie said. She looked forward, seeing the trees come to an end. "I'll see if anyone was following us above the forest. Stay here."Jackie said, as she went to the end of the trees.She looked around. "Ok I think we're-wait...."Jackie said, squinting whilst looking up. She yelped, turning to run back into the forest as a spear shot down by her, cutting through her arm. She let out another yelp as she got into the trees, gabbing her arm.

Tiberius started to growl and roar at Jackie. It may have looked like he had just gone mad, but in reality: he merely forgot he couldn't talk. And his current instinct was to pick Jackie up and rush her to his colony. So he did, and he started to run as fast as his hind legs could take him.

As Tiberius ran, Jackie's pets followed. Above them was the Draco-Avias, which admittedly wasn't as large as Jackie seemed to make it.
