The loner had been wandering across the various territories of 'Souls (what he had discovered this place was called). He had been searching to find more information about this Inferni clan. To hopefully observe the goings on between the wolves and coyotes. Such hostilities between the two species were so muddled that everyone was just pointing fingers to the other side. It was frustrating. The coyote wanted cold, hard facts. He didn't understand why more people's minds didn't function in such a way. They let their emotions and their tempers rule them. It was a way of thinking that he did not understand. Nor did he care to. Onus was pleased about the amount of trees in this particular area. When it was possible, he preferred to travel in high places, such as trees or buildings. Most times no one thought that anyone would be moving around up there, so it was easy to move around unnoticed. He acted like a shadow. Only coming out into the open when a direct action was necessary. When a scream pierced the dead air it was apparent that such a time was now. With precision and silence he moved through the tops of the trees towards the direction of the distress. Unfortunately for the wolf, he arrived moments too late. The sight that met his masked eyes was a bizarre one. The killer stood there, lapping at the blood of his victim like some horrid night walker from stories. Onus had observed many strange things in his life, but this was a new one. It was obvious that this creature was one without conscience. He had seen such before. That was all he needed to know. Launching out from his perch in the tree, he flew at the criminal, intent on colliding with his back or side.  |
