Vi rushes to dusty ," hold on old man !!!"
Vi focuses her arcs around her hands so every punch hurts more and tries to free up dusty from the wolves .

OOC: Turn order
Dusty 24
Unknown 23
Adam 21
Tyran 16
Megana 14
Payton 13
Vi 6
Trevor 5
Ant 2
Dusty becomes a dragged, thrashing anchor of fury, boots still carving meandering snow trenches, as the wolves yank him across the snow. Even with teeth clamped on his arms, he refuses to release his knife. Every time he rips an arm free to strike, the wolf lunges in and clamps down, jerking him sideways and ripping the chance away. They're just too fast.
Adam whirls like a human cyclone, cloak snapping violently. The wolves latched onto it lift clean off the ground, swinging out in a wide arc but refusing to release, their snarls becoming more fiercely intent.
Tyran sprints invisibly into the fray, loosing multiple castings of 'repel animals' as soon as he gets within range; all the while looking for signs of the dogboy itself. One by one they break and flee… all except a single stubborn wolf. It stares up at Trevor perched in the tree, then realizes its pack has abandoned it and bolts.
Vi sprints to Dusty, electricity fading from her skin as she reaches him. “Hold on, old man!” With the wolves already scattering, she hauls him upright. Dusty’s eyes blaze with feral, predatory, almost lupine intensity. His knife flashes upward, stopping a hair from Vi’s armored neck. His expression softens, the wildness draining.
“Thank you,” he grunts.
Megana crests the hill with Ant at her side just in time to see one pack fleeing while another dozen wolves thunder down the embankment toward her friends.
T2 reacts instantly. He mutters a sharp incantation, hands forming a dome shape. The air ripples and then a shimmering five‑yard energy dome erupts around the charging wolves, trapping them mid‑stride as they bounce and yelp against the semi-transparent bluish wall. The color is unmistakable: the same eerie shimmer that surrounds Smith Falls and Fort Hammer.
Trevor stays perched in the tree, rifle ready. Payton, with an arrow still jutting from his chest, throws his hands up in bafflement.
Adam, who nearly face‑planted when the wolves let go, tries to chase them but skids to a stop inches from the trapped new pack. He taps the dome with his spear, amused. “I’ve never seen that before…” he chuckles.
Trevor fires a shot. It ricochets off the dome with a metallic ping, “The hell?”
“Watch it! It might bounce and hit me!” Adam snaps.
Payton scans the area. “Where’s the kid? Bet he did it.” He cups his hands and shouts toward the tree line, “Hey! Can you let them out one at a time?” He winces, finally noticing the arrow buried in his chest, “…That’s not good.”

"No, I can't," Tyran answers quietly from right beside Payton. "Now get your ass behind some cover before he shoots you again!"
Looking around for signs of the Alpha, knowing he had to be close, Tyran will cast see invis if he otherwise can't locate the dogboy.
"Yell to the others," he says quietly to Peyton, "tell them ... Ignore the wolves ... 'Remember who we're here for. Find the dogboy!'"

Megana maintains her aim at the encroaching wolf pack as she curses, then yells out, "Guys inbound more wolves!!"
"Get to Megana and tell the kid with that lightning sword to hit me with lightning when the wolves get to me!" She cracks her knuckles and promptly walks into an invisible wall. On the far side of the wall, the wolves continue jumping against it, snarling at both her and Adam.
"Kid put up some barrier, I think. I don't see him here." Adam adds
"No, I can't," Tyran answers quietly from right beside Payton. "Now get your ass behind some cover before he shoots you again!" Payton ducks behind a tree, examining the severity of his wound. Looking around for signs of the Alpha, knowing he had to be close, Tyran mutters more words as he taps his temples, revealing the exact same view he had before. Nothing invisible is around. "Yell to the others," he says quietly to Peyton, "tell them ... Ignore the wolves ... 'Remember who we're here for. Find the dogboy!" There's no sign of the alpha or the dogboy. The immediate area is too trampled to successfully track anything. Yet he finds an older imprint of the dogboy's tracks after a moment. He's running away...
OOC: Nice! N20 on perception.
OOC2: Violet has achieved level
OOC3: Megana is less than 200 xp from level 3

Looking at the imprint, checking the direction it's facing, Tyran announces the direction loud enough for all to hear. (Example: "He's headed North! Move out!", and substituting whatever the appropriate direction is.)

"Those wolves will be free in a few minutes ... We should not be here when that happens," Tyran's voice adds, moving off in the direction of the dogboy's trail.
