Intense gaze of teal and yellow flick to the quick halt of the grey mare. What the—? The reason for her abrupt stop became clear as a sickeningly green tentacle tightens around Aquila’s leg as well. Again, steam hisses as a low grunt of surprise and pain escapes the warrioress. She, too, spins and hacks at the stinging green slime. It falls away from her leg, but latches onto her horn.


She darts her eyes towards the grey mare. Each slimy and acidic strands double and triple around both of the mares’ horns. The shark screeches in greedy excitement. She snorts, setting her haunches against the life-and-death tug-of-war they are suddenly facing with the shark. She pulls, ridges growing erect on her neck; her electric stripes pulse with sudden anger. She hears their sky borne ally point out a trail just up ahead of them and sees the grey mare try to go after the skeleton.

But the skeleton flees to the heavens. It is more fun for him to chase than fight. So he hovers above the scene, cackling at their misfortunes.

The beast turns its beady eyes skyward. With a thrust of its thick and grotesque neck, a spray of salt water and green saliva flies into the air at the hawk-borne. The droplets condense as a strands of glowing olive, wrapping around his wings and seeking to tug him towards the sea. Moving teeth snap together in a clamor as it snaps its jaws in hungry furor. What a feast this will be!

A throaty roar rips from her throat, frustration and anger displacing the panic and fear. Striking a webbed hoof in a spray of salt, she readies herself. “Try the trail he found, I will follow close behind,” she shouts over the bellowing of the beast. Then she snarls, sharp teeth exposing themselves— thrill flashes through her unblinking eyes.

And she lunges, open-mouthed, at the tendrils of green entrapping the mares. She growls as  the acid hisses and burns in her mouth. But she manages to get most of the tendrils off the antlered mare. Hopefully she can flee now.

Wrestling with her mouthful, she glances at the Hawk. She isn’t sure she can fight off three sets of feelers from the shark, so she does not yet try.

It screams, loosing one of the the tasty morsels. This seahorse will pay for robbing it of a meal! It yanks harder on it’s saliva tendrils, pulling her closer and aiming to pull the hawk closer to the waiting jaws. One snap of the teeth skyward try to catch the flighted man. One snap towards the flailing seahorse— she’s so close now. But it is greedy— oh so greedy with poisoned magic. It wants all three snacks. So it lunges, unexpectedly, at Dacianna. Haphazard teeth open a wound along Aquila’s ribcage. But it’s open jaws aim to envelope the grey in a delicious bite.

The sea is hell and I am its fury.

ooc| Sorry for the delay! I forgot about this ;-; Permission from Chan to PP Gashad. And I also realize that the shark’s attack on Mbizi was a little PP, I can change it if need be!
Summary (cause a lot happened) Gashad flies above. The shark’s water/saliva tentacle things wrap around Daci’s and Aquila’s horns when they try to cut them away. The shark also sends some tentacles skyward to wrap around Mbizi and pull him down. Aquila bites away the tendrils from Daci’s horn, telling her to try the path. The shark lunges at Daci, cutting open Aquila’s side on the way. Whew!
