junji let out a soft whine when his body hit the ground, teeth gritting slightly at the feel of claws digging into his side, holding him down. he hated this. this feeling of helplessness, the same feeling he'd felt when that hound... blue eyes snapped open and he stared wide up at his assailant, frantically looking over his features, barely holding back a sigh of relief when he confirmed it was not the same one. though it was not the beast who had attacked him before, it being a separate one did not make it much better. the soothsayer was in foreign territory now, with scalding sands and no clouds to shield him from the sun's harsh rays. he was all alone.
he breathed in the mingling scents, wincing slightly in pain as he did so, and groaned inwardly when he finally got a grasp of where he was. the pitt. these... savages. they didn't know when to stop, did they? junji shifted slightly beneath the weight of quill's paw, spreading out one wing and attempting to swat his attacker off of him. a feeble attempt to escape, he knew; the boy would have to do more than that if he really wanted to get away. he dropped his wing and simply returned his stare up at quill, swallowing thickly before he spoke. "what do you want?" junji rasped, tail lashing lightly over the hot sand.
