FUCK YA CHICKEN STRIPS — RAID

[Luca]

The sound of wings above Luca alerted him to the incoming danger, but the canine didn't swerve on his path or attempt to defend himself. The fiery pain was something he was used to, and he knew that his ears could handle a little shredding. They were pretty sensitive though, and despite being bothered by the usual attack, Luca couldn't help but wince a little as blood spilled from the wounds and over his face. Aside from that, he made it back to the boat without too much trouble. Luca dumped the pouch in a safe-ish place on deck and shook out his fur, sending a cloud of charcoal into the air and finally looking up at Calum. The bird looked familiar, and he narrowed his rose eyes. "Leave me alone!" He complained, a small burst of flames exiting his maw as he lifted a limb to bat uselessly at the hawk. He had better things to do than kill somebody's pet.

Of course, it didn't take long for him to lay eyes on a perfect example of something better.

"Shininglight!" Luca cried, and his paws moved before he knew what he was doing, carrying him towards the striped feline like his life depended on it. back off the boat, back into battle. He hadn't spotted Lessa yet, but just seeing his old crush sent tears springing to Luca's eyes. He sniffled as he skidded to a stop, staring at Shininglight with desperate, watering eyes. "Shine- Shine you have to get out of here!" Luca said, shaking some of the pink blood from the fur of his head. "You'll get hurt!" He had never known Shine to be a fighter, after all, and seeing him on the receiving end of a raid was enough to send the hellhound's heart racing. He attempted to headbutt Shine gently to usher him away from the battle, trying to get him away from most of the danger.
