Ow. Now I really stung. But the cold water would probably help... And it covered my shoulders from being rubbed against by other things. "You got the fire going?" I got down on my hands and knees and started blowing a little, to help.

"Yeah. It's going." I still whined a little bit; the gash on my arm was still severely painful. I blew on the fire a little bit, trying to keep my mind of the pain.

(Oooo! That was an intense fight! You guys are great!)
The panther gave a last growl on the ground and fell asleep...forever. A nasty fight it had been, but it had its rewards. Fresh meat for tonight...that is, if nothing happens...
At that moment, the cave which the two person party had explored earlier lit up with light, then dimmed again. A white figure crept toward the cave and vanished. The white figure had the shape...of a panther...
Once the panther like shape entered the cave, another bright light errupted and finally turned off.

Ishathod, Champ, and Charon returned from the fight with the panther. 'We have dead panther! Looks like panther meat for dinner tonight!' "Finally, some food..." I was starving. "Where is it?" 'It's over there.' I started walking a little bit toward the dead panther.
While I was walking, I saw mysterious flashes of light coming from the cave. What could that be? But right now, that didn't fully occupy my mind; I was starving, bleeding, and probably could have used some sleep...

 "What the HECK was that!?" I saw a white figure walking around when the first flash of light wore off. Another flash, and it was gone... I couldn't make out a shape right away, but it reminded me of... a panther... <I like your new armor, Yoshee.> Charon commented, staring at the leaves on my shoulders, when I sat back down next to him. He had somehow turned our little fire black, and it was bigger. "Nice color you have on our fire there." I commented back. |

"I really don't know..." I couldn't tell what it was; the flash was so fast that I couldn't depict what the shadowy figure was; I really didn't care. I looked back at the fire; it was huge... and black... 'Whoa! What the heck happened to the fire?!' "Charon did something to it... ask him..."

(I'm alright with what Charon did as long as he can't START the fire...since normally you start powerless...no matter your species.)
The life around the two went on as it would normally go, as if the panther had never existed. The joyous birds would lay their nests near by, a good chance for some adventurers to get eggs.
But luck didn't smile for all, unfortunately all the other adventurers who were washed up here did not live. They never got any food or water and crippled in their places (Really, if you don't participate, it happens, but you can start again).

(I didn't mean it was HUGE just kind of bigger... XD) <I like eggs.> "We know." <Too bad I can't have eggs.> "We know that too." <I wish I could have eggs.> "..." <Eggs.> "Will you shut up already, Champ?" <Eggs. I mean, yes.> He did have a point, though. I wasn't one for eating eggs, as I came out of one, but it was food for now. "I think we feast this afternoon, Enrique." I said. I couldn't find any good rocks to skin something, though. |

I laughed at Champ; he reminded me of Ishathod some days. "Kind of sounds like you sometimes, doesn't he?" I nooded to Ishathod. 'NO!' "Oh, don't be silly..." 'Who said I was silly?!' "I did." Ishathod moaned a little bit more, but I ignored him.
"Yeah, feasting sounds good... We haven't had really anything to eat in days..." I wonder if she was just as starved as I was...

A raven landed on the corpse of the panther...and started nibbling at it, pecking through the flesh and taking small bites. It was sooned joined by company.

"Hey!" I shooed at the ravens. "Eat your own food. Did you fight a panther!?" I waved my arms at them.

"I'll take care of them..." I picked up the panther just a little bit. The ravnes started flying away a little bit. "Well, now that we took care of the ravens, how shall we cook this beast?"

(Hmm...good question, how do you put a heavy animal over a fire to cook? I wonder if Charon and Champs claws could come in handy...)

< Ah-ah, no way, Jose!> Champ backed away, seeing the look on mine and Enrique's faces. <I like to keep my claws clean.> Charon answered calmly. "You're going to do it, and you're going to like it!" I grabbed Champ by the back of his collar/medal. |

"Yeah, you two, remember, just because you two don't really have to eat, some of us do." The two Chaos wanted to be difficult. I knew Yoshee would set them straight.

<Fine. Fine. How do I do it?> I had finally convinced Champ to help. I had offered to let him say 'Eggs' 100 times. "Ummm... just take your claws and try scraping off the skin. <Oh, that's sick!> "Eggs." <... fine.> Champ settled down in front of the corpse and tried doing his disgusting job of clawing off the dead fur.

I do admit, the skinning was quite disgusting looking, but it was also funny to see the expression on Champ's face. It was also really funny listening to Yoshee entice him by letting him say "Eggs." "You know, Ishathod, you really ought to help." Ishathod had kind of a freaked out look on his face. "Me?!"

(This is very fun to read...just remember night comes on sunday, and you still haven't gotten any gifts of grace yet, they could help you a lot...wonder why Charon isn't helping...)

(Charon's a wuss, Teo. XD)
The day had faded into late afternoon. Champ was only about half-done with the skinning. <This is hard; I don't like it.> "Eggs, Champ."
(I'm depending on Enrique to find shelter; I won't be here over the weekend... )

(If you trust him...there's nothing to truly add to these posts until you find out how to give a corpse to the altar.)
