> “hey Adam where are the rest ??"

How many are missing?” Tyran asks.

Megana gives everyone a brief look as she introduces herself, "Name's Megana. A pleasure to meet you two. I'm sorry, how did you scare them wolves away?"

Dusty grunts, "Because the kid's a finger wiggler."

Adam frowns, "Like the shamans?"

Dusty nods slowly, making it unclear if he's indifferent or nervous of the newcomers.

Trevor frowns, "He's just a kid, he can't be too dangerous..."

Dusty knowingly chuckles, "Oh okay, if you say so."

Tyran can sense that Dusty, the experienced looking old man, already knows.

Vi shows her persistence, "Now tell us who you are. And also, Megana, we gotta meet up with everyone else," as electrical arcing continues across her armor.

"Rude, young lady," Trevor replies, "I already said, I'm T1 and he's T2," pointing at Tyran.

Tyran turns his attention immediately to the warriors as they climb out of the tree, seemingly ignoring the demand that he identify himself, assuming Trevor’s should suffice. “Everyone all right? Anyone hurt? Are there more of you out here?”

Payton thumps the furs on his chest, "Short of almost being lunch, we were just formulating a plan on how to beat those mutts!"

Adam almost smacks him, "What were you gonna do? Eat them? You were the first up that tree, fat ass!"

Ant remains quiet. Tyran notices blood dripping from his left leg, leaving red droplets in the snow.

"It was smart of you boys to climb that tree, they would have picked one of you and ignored the rest. Then torn one of you apart before you even killed one." Dusty defends Payton's choice.

"Seems all of you climbed that tree. No shame in being smart about it," Trevor adds.

“Those few shouldn’t come back here anytime soon … but if their alpha is still in the area, you might want to gather your peers and head back to the camp. Those Dogboys aren’t your typical predator.”

"You don't say..." Dusty's sarcasm is strong as he continues trying to soothe his shoulder. The wolves must have nearly yanked it out of socket.

Vi answers Tyran, "Yeah, we know, we've had an encounter with him already. I'd love to give him some shock therapy. He commands the wolf pack in the area." She looks around, "Hey, Adam, where are the rest?"

"How many are missing?” Tyran asks.

Adam shrugs, "All of the tribesmen split up into groups of four. We saw two run by, so I know we lost at least two."

Ant grunts in pain, "Yeah, we didn't set a meeting spot. Never expected to lose the fight."

"We should head back to the camp and stage an attack right on their den... if we can find it." Dusty faces the direction of the camp.

OOC: Ill try and get character profiles up for Ant, Adam and Payton sometime soon.

“Or we could strike while we know where he is …” the young boy counters, “depending on what we’re dealing with, and if you have anything left in the tank.”

He turns to Trevor, continuing, “I don’t really relish the idea of taking on a deadboy without Bill here to back us up … he’s a bit better with the psychic types. But dogboys are expert trackers; I’d also worry about it finding its way back to homebase at some point when we’re not ready. But this definitely explains how effective the wolves have been at raiding the lines … they’ve got a human-level intelligence organizing them.”

Turning back to Dusty and the others, he presses for more information. “Did you get a good read on it? Are we talking retired veteran, or feral pup? It clearly has a bow, but any armour or MD weapons?”

Vi looks at the one who calls himself t1 ," who's yhe asshole that decided to throw lightning ? And you said I'm rude !! Shall we see who can withstand more shocks ??"

Trevor nods, "Well, it's settled. Let's either run him off or kill em."

Turning back to Dusty and the others, he presses for more information. “Did you get a good read on it? Are we talking retired veteran, or feral pup? It clearly has a bow, but any armor or high powered weapons?”

"I didn't get a good look." He nods to Megana and Vi, "They saw though. My guess is that it's got some training. It can accurately fire arrows."

Vi looks at the one who calls himself T1, "Who's the asshole that decided to throw lightning? And you said I'm rude! Shall we see who can withstand more shocks?"

Trevor gives Vi one of those stares that asks if she was bounced on her head at a young age, "I'd rather not... and sometimes these blizzards cause freak lightning storms. But it's pretty rare." Tyran can tell that he's covering.

"I do agree we need to attack while we know where it is...that muttboy has been nonthing a nuisance and has plagued mine and vi's dreams as a nightmare....he need to be put down so we can let his master know we are not to be fucked with" Megana growled as she looks around listening for anything like a voice or sound.

Vi thinks back ," that dogboy if I remember right got armor . Didn't look like he was in a hurry to chase us either leaning against a tree."

"I do agree we need to attack while we know where it is. That muttboy has been nothing but a nuisance and has plagued mine and Vi's dreams as a nightmare. He needs to be put down so we can let his master know we are not to be fucked with," Megana growls as she looks around, listening for anything out of place.

Vi thinks back, "That dogboy, if I remember right, has armor. Didn't look like he was in a hurry to chase us either. He was just leaning against a tree."

"Yeah, he's smart. That's a display of confidence if he wasn't high tailing it out. He reckons better than to attack larger numbers or face down a fortified structure." Dusty adds.

Ant leans over, maybe four or five years older than Tyran, "Hey! Can you teach me how to do those things?" he whispers.

“So he’s smart enough to not face us directly, then,” Tyran responds. “We might be able to use that confidence against him, but we’re not likely to be able to catch him by surprise.”

“I could turn the wolves against him, but that would require some focused preparation … I’d need about ten minutes at the lair, and he isn’t going to just stand around and let that happen!”

Megana looks at T2 "i can help you track the wolves down if you want. We want to take this bastard down"
