I blinked slowly, still feeling groggy from the sedative I had ingested.
"She's waking up!" I heard a voice nearby. I sniffed once. The fox girl.
"Do we have any water to keep her awake?"
"I don't hear any streams... Please wake up! Please!" I blinked a few more times.
"Ugh, talk about a power nap!" I moaned softly. More calling came from the crowd. Suddenly, a new smell brought me jerking up. Humans! Jumping up, I looked over in time to see the tiger run off, and the snake close behind. Everyone was getting ready to leave. My first instinct was to help fight. Stupid humans! But realizing that the two could handle it, I took off with the others.
"This way!" called the orange haired fox as we all ran after.
"Where are you going?!" I called after her. Hell if I'm getting lost out here!
She turned and motioned for silence as she sniffed around. Indeed, I could smell a fox's scent marking nearby. She moved a few branches and pointed to a hole. I felt my eye twitch. It was so small! She expected us all to get down there?!
"Are you sure we'll all fit?" the bat girl spoke up.
"It's bigger inside. It's just the hole is sort of small." The girl nodded.
So we all started to file in, one after another. First the fox girl, then a few more, then me, and some others.
"HEY!" called a voice outside. Sniffing, it was hard to smell anything besides dirt, and I sneezed lightly. Human? Possibly, not probably. That's when I realized they were in the hole! I hope the last person has a good sense of smell, because I will NOT let a human follow us here!
