He runs. Smoke and ash fills his lungs until they threaten to collapse. He sees the Jungle smoldering in the distance. He doesn’t know that Prague has saved Vineine and Longear already. He runs for them.
He is drenched with sweat when he comes upon the Jungle. Animals guard her borders with eyes full of rage. He knows there is no getting past them. There is no reasoning with angry elephants, leopards, and lions. He races towards the west entrance, hoping to find a way in.
A painted mare stands guard along the west entrance, and Fiero slows, but she is already barreling towards him.
“No, stop!” he yells, frantically skidding to a halt as the painted mare rushes him. He dodges her, albeit quite messily. “I mean no harm.” he pants at her. “I need Vineine.” he says, and the painted mare stops.
“Why didn’t you say so?” she says in a rather chipper voice.
“Is she okay? Where is Longear? My name is Fiero.” He says all at once.
“Slow down,” she says “Vineine has stayed behind to guard the young, but I cannot let you in unescorted.”
Fiero frowns. “I understand, but...”
The painted mare is just about to interrupt him when a scream splits the humid Jungle air.
“Sitra.” she gasps, her mismatched eyes suddenly filled with the same horror that Fiero had dragged all the way here.
“Come on, dammit.” she orders him, and they race headlong into the viney jungle. He doesn’t see the rabbit that scurries towards the Meadow as he plumets through the Jungle behind the painted mare.
Fiero & Aoi
ooc: Fiero meets Aoi at the West entrance, they hear Sitra scream as Niklas snaps at Longear. They race into the Jungle.
