WHAT'S UP DANGER / rescue party

[Masie]

All she remembered was running after Delta breathlessly wanting to scream at her sister but not having the energy to do anything but run due to the pit of hunger in her stomach. At some point or another after she had taken off after her sister instead of the boats? They had gotten separated, and evading the burning lava or falling objects she had ended up near the tree houses. When nothing bad happened for a few minutes, the brain of a frightened young animal deemed it the only safe place she knew and terrified shut itself down. Frozen the raptor lay there on the ground with an occasional noise or cough coming from her, body no longer able to realize the danger past the sheer fear.

Masie didn't even feel it when the captian pushed her body up, feathery arms clamped to her sides compeltely rigid as her tail dragged across the ground. Awareness only came back when her body was suddenly tossed forward and collided with the ground shocking her back into reality. "Huh?" sand and dust covered her pelt, shaken off as she gazed around dazed, confused. What had just happened? She couldn't remember anything, why couldn't she remember how she even got here, the confusion grew thicker. Distantly she hears something that she thinks sounds like "Goldie?" only she can't see her, body affected by all the smoke she had breathed in since the eruption began and her own fear. Why can't she see Golide when she can hear- that noise is danger!

"GOLDIE!" she screeched it out, but there was no reply in her own tongue, none of her own left around her and the alpha somewhere unseen in danger. It takes a little too long for her comfort to finally put together that the alpha is trapped by the flames, another shrill screech coming from her maw, beginning to run a few feet in each direction up and down the burning forest. "NO!" the noise that came from her throat honestly sounded like the word, even if she didn't intend any of that, it sounded like she spoke for just a brief moment before the screeching resumed. How was she suppose to fight fire to free the alpha? Threat after threat hissed out but fire didn't care it simply hissed back nonsensically.

Silence falls, no longer able to hear struggle knowing yet refusing to believe what it means "NO!" it wasn't a voice but it was a word, only interrupted by frustrated squawking and desperate cries for what she knew to be wrong. Why did she follow Delta, why had she not just made her sister follow the alpha of the group they lived with? No the group she was part of, why! The striker hissed at the fire again, snapping her jaws at the heat, but it's all pointless and she already knows it, stumbling back and collapsing onto the sand again. No.
