THE CALL / open, joining

[Roy Mustang]

Was it even safe to wander around the Ascendants territory anymore? After they allowed a feral dinosaur into the group, and after Roy ran across that utahraptor fighting another, Roy decided it probably wasn't a good idea. These things are feral, they probably can't differentiate a groupmate between a piece of prey. Roy didn't like that he had to live with one of those things in the observatory, he had to make sure he was extra cautious just in case it decided to snap. So far, Roy hasn't heard of any horrific accidents yet.

Roy almost decided to stay in the Cleric's den for today. He would have used an excuse that he needed to rest, but both Rin and Radeken knew that Roy was working hard to get used to walking around on three limbs. The last place Roy usually wanted to be in was the Cleric's den, it wouldn't have looked right if he stayed inside today. He didn't want to seem like he was afraid of the creature or that he was weak. He was the Flame Alchemist for crying out loud, he can handle the utahraptor if it gets out of control! He can probably kill it with a few snaps of his claws, as long as it doesn't maul him to death first.

I better not regret this, Was the thought that ran through Roy's mind as the bobcat forced himself to get up, and pad out of the den. He made his way to the entrance of the observatory, ears pricked up, listening for any kind of noise they could pick up.

Roy didn't make it that far into the territory when the scent of blood invaded his nostrils. The male froze in his tracks when he heard a terrified yelp from further in the territory, the Flame Alchemist looking in the direction of the noise. Something's out there. Roy thought as the smell of blood got stronger, contemplating on what to do. That's probably a clanmate that's being attacked, he shouldn't just be standing here. While he stands here, they continue to get attacked and bleed out, and potentially die. He can't save them like a Cleric would, but he could prevent their attacker from inflicting more damage. He would be risking his own life most likely, even while he's in a bad condition.

Roy began to pad again, this time fastening his pace. He moved his paws as quickly as they would take him, hoping he wouldn't run across that utahraptor attacking an innocent clanmate.

When he eventually padded into the scene, he wasn't half wrong. It wasn't that utahraptor, Delta, attacking and tearing apart a clanmate. No, no- it was a different utahraptor. The creature the dinosaur decided to make it's victim was a fox, and by the looks of it- by the blood covering the dinosaur and the guts spilled on the ground, there's no chance that fox is alive. Roy's blue gaze was torn away from the deceased fox, and landed onto Charlie. The utahraptor seemed to be still, before it began to let out a weird call that Roy didn't understand. "Oh fuck," Roy Mustang breathed, mainly talking to himself, "What the hell am I about to get myself into?" A shiver ran down Roy's spine when he heard another call- this time by the raptor Echo, who was in a fight with Delta. Oh fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! Roy stayed completely still as he felt the breeze against his fur as Echo ran past him, keeping his gaze locked on the two.
