Ohanzee tread silently and carefully along through the corn. He kept his eyes and ears attent, concentrating on every sight and sound he saw and heard.
ooc: Sorry! A little pathetic, but best I could do right now!

Akina scuttled through the corn. Something was amiss. She inhaled deeply as a breeze ruffled her fur. She caught an odd but familiar scent. What was it? Akina froze and contemplated it. "Guys I think we should turn back." she whispered.
ooc: Ok I've got some ideas but I need you guys help ;D Do you think the scent should be from humans, a fire (The breeze could be blowing the smoke away so they don't notice), or if anyone else has a thought please share. Thanx.

ooc: No thought, either one sounds interesting
Lythrian stopped cold in her tracks. She turned to look at Akina. "What is wrong?" She asked quickly. Waiting for an answer, she sat down among the corn. "Did you smell something?" The wolf sniffed the wind, and picked up the scent, exactly what Akina had found.

Ohanzee tipped back his head and took a whiff of the air. It did smell familiar...too familiar... But, it had been so long, he couldn't quite place the smell. He sat down and contemplated the smell. It had danger written all over it. He knew they had to get out of there... "I think Akina's right..."
ooc: I like the fire idea, I think that should be it! ;D

ooc: Ok, fire it is then ic: Bow followed the others carefully through the corn field. When Akina stopped and sniffed the air Bow followed suit. Hmmmm.....what was that. "What is that smell?" Suddenly Bow froze. She recognized that scent and the middle of a corn field was the last place she wanted to be. As if on cue red-orange flames lept up behind her. Bow yelped and lept forward. "Fire!!!!", she cried.

Lythrian's eyes went wide. Why did something else have to go wrong today? "Back to the camp!" She yelped, running as fast as she could. "Faster! Run everybody!" Yelling this out, she ran for her life. She knew fire spread fast, especially in fields. Her tail flying out behind her, the wind ruffling her fur, she ran. The flames licked at her fur, teasing like, and she lept to her left, so it wouldn't burn her.
ooc: I like making my characters feel a little pain. Can I say she got caught by the fire?

ooc: Hey go for it! I like to do that too sometimes, so I might do that also, a little atleast. ic:
Ohanzee turned to run, but couldn't as great orange flames leaped up behind him. He started to run the other way, away from the den, but also away from danger...or so he thought. As Ohanzee ran the other way, the smoke became thicker and the smell of fire was obviously stronger. But his senses were so off by the strong smell, he could no longer tell in which way was safety. He started to turn back the way he came. Luckily, he hadn't gone too far and was able to find slightly cleaner air. Ohanzee ran hard and was determined to get home, so he leapt through the flames...
(continued later...sorry!)

ooc: Yipee!
Lythrian ran towards safety, her heart pumping, and breathing hard. Soon, she began feeling safer, and slowed to a halt. Where was the rest of her pack? She wondered. Suddenly, she saw Ohanzee running through flames. Lythrian began to call out, but he jumped into the flames. Eyes went wide, as she leaped towards the place he dissappeared. "Ohanzee?" She cried out, coughing because of the smoke. In her haste to find the other wolf, she had not noticed the flames. They had surrounded her, except for a small opening at the other beind her. Thickening, the smoke blinded her, and her eyes stung horribly. Whimpering in pain as a flame charred her tail fur, she lept forward to the opening...which wasn't there anymore. Frightened, she spun around, looking for an escape. But there wasn't one, the fire had trapped her. Quickly, the flames leaping higher and higher grew closer, and soon, she was swallowed by the flames.

ooc: yep, I'm the same way but I think I'll spare Akina. ic: Akina yelped in surprise as red-orange flames sprang up around them. She could hear Lythrian yelling at them to run so she did praying she was going away from the field towards the den. Her small legs carried her quickly through the corn stalks. Flames suddenly lept up in front of her. Fear seized her body and she whimpered. She was going to die.
Then adrenaline shot through her like an arrow. She picked up her spead and ran in crazy zig-zags suddenly she slipped and tumbled down a steep embankment and the next thing she knew she was falling and then...... Akina hit the water with a splash. Gasping she quickly pulled herself ashore. Breathing hard she looked around and then curled into a ball and wait to find the others.

Bow was off like a rocket. She could feel the fire pressing in around her. She was panting and beginning to sweat. Suddenlly the smell of burnt fur alerted her to closeness of the flames. Bow picked up her speed and lept into a clearing. "No!" she howled as the flames closed around her. She was surronded by a wall of fire. The smoke filled her lungs and she coughed. Her eyes and throat burned. She was loosing consciouness. Bow knew she had to fight it..........

Ohanzee hit the ground. He made it through the flames. He wanted to collapse, but knew that he couldn't right then and looked about him wildly for an escape. Then, he thought he heard his name. He started to walk towards the source of the voice and hoped that whoever it was was alright. He was coughing and could barely see, all because of the smoke. He glanced around, and saw a very slight opening into a circle of flames that were surrounding... Ohanzee squinted to try and see what the flames were surrounding. It was Lythrian! He tried to reach her, but the flames were too high and the opening too narrow and the fire too hot and he was afraid he was going to die. He decided to take a chance though and leapt throught the flames towards Lythrian. He tumbled into the circle, flames leaping about his body. -STOP, DROP, AND ROLL!- he thought to himself. He quickly followed his own directions, and was finally able to rid himself of the fire in his fur, but not without some burning. The pain was too much... Ohanzee felt like he was going to pass out... -Must help Lythrian...must save us both!-

Lythrian suddenly saw Ohanzee jump through the flames. "Your okay!" She said, as she coughed badly. To much smoke inhalation, she thought, wearily. Her was fur quickly burnt up, leaving patches of charred hair and skin. Dropping to the ground, she attempted to douse the flames, and finally the searing pain stopped...a little at least. She stood, and walked over to Ohanzee, her breath coming in wheezes. "How are we going to get out?" She asked, shuddering as a wrack of pain jolted through her body from her burnt skin.

The smoke was too overpowering. Bow knew that it was time to do or die. If she didn't get out now she'd be a real hot dog. Hn. No time for jokes. Bow was just about to leap through the flames when she gazed up on impulse. She'd ran towards the woods and the fire had spread. A large tree tumbled and fell down temporarily blocking the flames. Thanking the Great Spirit Bow seized her chance and ran along the tree trunk and into another clearing.

Ohanzee gazed at Lythrian, a glazed look in his eye. He was just barely awake...and he wasn't sure how much longer he'd be able to stay awake. He shook himself in an attempt to wake himself a little more. He had to get out of here alive...there was no way that he wasn't... "Um, I'm not entirely sure..." He glanced around, looking for some sort of opening, but the smoke was too thick... "Do you see any kind of opening?"

Akina looked around her. Where was everybody. She was starting to feel alone and very worried for the safety of her fellow pack members. The others weren't coming. They were trapped but what could she do? Akina jogged along the bank then threw back her head and howled. "Water this way!"
