Cry huffed as she heard Jacob screaming. It was just like the wimp to start screaming over something and expecting people to crowd around him. Unfortunately, it worked. A small group had already surrounded the panicking husky. What? Did he realize he was incompetent and unavailable? The raven landed on the ground with a huff. She opened her previously injured wing, preening the feathers with her beak. Perhaps she should push her petty nature aside. Jacob was only trying to do his job, anyway. He wasn't very good at it, but he was trying. She supposed that was worth something.
The raven watched the slowly growing panic around her. It was amazing how these creatures could be sent into a flurry over one thing. It was the butterfly effect at its best work. One scream turned into two, escalating into ten. So far there only appeared to be four, herself included, but who knew how fast it would grow. ...
What were they screaming about anyways?
She took a few steps towards the group, their whispers defining into words. She tilted her head. So. The squirt is missing huh? Heh. Served him right. The raven nervously ruffled herself before turning around. So Harrison was gone. Good. ... She had taken four steps away before her thoughts caught up with her. She broke into a cold sweat. So the kid was gone, huh... Poor thing. She blinked owlishly, staring at her own talons on the ground. She scratched at the ground, calculating her actions. There were so many things she could do. Leave. Stay and watch the storm of people. Join them. Or make an action. Her scratching turned into clawing. Her face scrunched up, her left talon balling up and hitting the ground.
FINE. She'll help.
Hey Furface. Cry sharply turned around, standing tall. Pull yourself together. You got leader stuff to do. This was a time to prove himself. Show everyone that he was the leader that this place needed. No more tea parties and pretty lights. This was a true crisis that needed his careful watch and attention. The raven hopped up, gliding back over to the group. Pull search groups together. Comb the territory and ask neighboring villages if they've seen head or tail of him. Leave no rock unturned and look in every nook and cranny. She gave him a smile, ruffling her feathers. We'll find him, if you'll lead us. Hopefully that was enough of a push to get him off the ground. Harrison was already gone. There was no reason in mourning that. It was only what they did in the close future that mattered. They'd find the kid. She would die for this mission, just like any of her other ones.
