In hindsight, maybe Azazel taking a walk had been a bad idea. He hadn't wanted to stumble across anything that would upset him. But what else was he to do? He could move his right wing with just a twinge of pain, and while his leg still brought pain it was quickly beginning to fade as well. His unnatural healing rate was still a mystery, but it was a welcome one if it brought him from whatever pain he had suffered when he first fell. He had just wanted to explore the territory, now that the pain had almost disappeared.
So walking the territory had been what he was doing until he smelt it. A scent that almost made him gag, one that almost made him back away. But others were moving forwards, and, despite what he wanted to do, Azazel followed. The sight that greeted him was quick to make him stop in his tracks, however. A bloody mess of a canine, and the much larger one sitting in the midst of it. Despite instinct telling him to stop, to leave the victim alone, Azazel stumbled forwards.
Pressing against the canine's torn throat, he nudged at it weakly, wincing as he realized the crimson staining his paws. He didn't know, he didn't understand. He had a feeling that something was bad, that it was wrong. That the canine shouldn't be so cold. "Why won't they move?"
