Sephira looked at Elliot. It was a crazy idea, these Wolfos were probably too blood thirsty to speak with. "It might work. I'll ask." Whistling, she waited for Midnight to appear. He came running. Quickly, she explained the idea to him. He nodded then dove back into the pack. Sephira listened until she heard him barking at someone. Listening, she guessed it was a Wolfos and listened as Midnight asked where the Alpha was. "Got it!" she said as she heard the Wolfos answer. She truned to Elliot. "Come one, I know where he is." She took off, whistling for Star to join them.

"Well that was fast," Elliot chuckled. "Alright then, let's go!" Sword in hand, he followed after Sephira, doing his best to keep up. About mid-way, he was blocked by a group of Wolfos who seemed to just materialize right before his eyes. Sighing, he took out the middle one with a few good swipes of his sword and dashed right through the rest, not bothering to fight them off.

Sephira ran, jumping Wolfos she could, dodging them when she couldn't, and killing them if she had to. She glanced back to see Elliot was still following her. Looking forward again, she spotted Star rushing to her. Sephira quickly explained what Midnight was doing, and the two continued running. Eventually they found Midnight snarling at a large Wolfos, who was flanked by two more Wolfos, smaller than the Alpha but still big. Sephira listened to what they were saying. Apperently, the Wolfos were starving, which is why they attacked the farm. She hesitated, not wanting to kill them for following thier basic instinct.

Upon noticing the oversized Wolfo, Elliot readied his sword and prepared to attack. Then he noticed Sephira's hesistation. "Is...something wrong?" he asked softly. He took a step back from the large alpha Wolfo in case it decided to strike first.

Sephira nodded slightly. "They're hungry. That's why they're here. I'm not wanting to kill them for just following thier most basic instinct. If we could just find a place where such a large pack could feed without having to kill..." She looked beseachingly at Elliot.

"Hmmm. This is an interesting predicament. I suppose it would be bad to kill them off just because they're trying to survive..." Elliot tried to think fast, but it looked like the Alpha was getting ready to attack. He dodged its snapping jaws by rolling towards its back and brought the hilt of his sword slamming down. He winced at what he'd done, glancing at Sephira. "Sorry... Instincts you know?" He circled the creature who'd managed to shake off his attack while trying to keep at a distance. A place for Wolfos to have all the food they can eat? he thought. Is there even such a place?

Meanwhile, Jacob really hadn't gone to check on the ranch owners. He had put on his hood and blended in with the surroundings so he could move through the crowd of Wolfos. He sat down in a spot near Elliot and hear the conversation. Food....they need food. Jacob couldn't think of anywhere for them to stay. Taking them with me would be suicide...wait a second... Jacob thought about this plan more and just couldn't come to a conclusion. But Jacob knew something along similar to that plan might work.

"At least you hit it with the hilt. That's less likely to kill." Sephira said. Slapping the Wolfos with the flat of her blade, hard, she starled the Wolfos long enough for her to switch her grip and knock it out with her hilt. She looked around at all the Wolfos. "There are so many. I don't know where they can all eat, unless they turn cannibal."

Elliot made a face at the very suggestion. "No, no we wouldn't want them turning cannibal and I'm sure they wouldn't like that either. Wolfos are a tight-knit community. Maybe a lake? A lake with lots of fish? Or..." he contemplated his next idea, then decided to go for it. "Suppose we asked them if they'd be willing to earn their keep? Some food from the farmers in exchange for, say, protection from thieves or other opposing animals that could attack?" A closer look at the high number of casualties, especially for something that could be worked out, saddened him. "After all, I don't see why a farmer and a Wolfo can't co-exist..."

Sephira slapped a Wolfo on the rear. "I don't see why not either. I'll ask them. Stay close, if case they get violent." She turned towards the Alpha and walked over. She sheathed her sword, then laid down on her back, expossing her chest to the Alpha, a sign of submission in the animal world. Midnight and Star charged over to protect her, but she whislted them away. The Alpha crouched down and sniffed her. Quietly, Sephira asked him if he'd be willing to protect farmers in trade for food. The Alpha considered, his jaws close to Sephira's neck should she or anyone else decide to try something.

"What are you doing?!" Elliot cried out in shock. Had she gone mad? If that Wolfo was hungry, there was most certainly a chance that it was going to eat her. He charged towards the Alpha with his sword raised in his hands. Yes, he pitied the Wolfos, but he'd be damned if he was just going to stand idly by and watch someone get eaten.

Star leaped at Elliot, seeing the teeth so close to her mistress. She grabbed his sleeve and pulled, ripping it in the process. She snarled, trying to get him to understand the danger he was putting Sephira in. Sephira spoke up when she heard Star. "Elliot, this Wolfo has his teeth next to my neck for a reason."

"Yeah, like, perhaps to eat you?" Seeing the Wolfo so close to Sephira who was just laying herself there unprotected was making him very nervous. Every fiber of his being was telling him to get in there and attack before the Wolfo could. Still, she was acting pretty calm...and she did have control over two of her own potentially dangerous animals... Letting out an exasperated half sigh half growl, he allowed Star to take him a few steps back, but kept his grip on his sword in case the Wolfo decided to try anything funny.

Sephira sighed in releif when Elliot stepped back. The Alpha had been feeling twitchy with him coming at them. Now that he had relaxed, Sephira asked him again if he would be willing to work for his food. He considered for a little while, then asked how much. "I don't know, master. You will have to let me up if I'm to find out." Alpha backed away from her. Sephira stood up and walked over to Elliot, Alpha tagging along. She thought she saw Elliot tense. She lay a hand on his shoulder. "Relax. He wants to know how much the farmers are willing to pay him."

After making sure Sephira wasn't going to be eaten, Jacob went towards the stable and entered. As soon as he entered, a pitchfork thrust out, aiming for Jacob's head. Jacob ducked and lashed out his leg, making whoever was trying to kill him hit the floor. Jacob turned around and saw a girl his age with red hair holding the pitchfork that could've killed him. "Who are you? Are you a monster?" The girl asked him, clearly afraid. Jacob took off his hood and smiled. "I'm no monster. Me and some other people came here to save you." Jacob helped the girl up and noticed a wound in her right arm. "Where did you get that from?" Jacob asked, pointing to her wound. "A Wolfos bit me while I was protecting Epona." The girl replied, pointing to a unscathed horse a couple feet away. "Let me bandage it up for you. By the way, my name is Jacob. What is yours?" Jacob asked her while he bandaged up her wound. "My name is Malon. My father is the owner of this ranch." Malon replied, sitting down on a haystack. "Well I will be back in a bit, I have to go talk to my friends." Jacob said as he left the building, hoping his friends were all right.
