An Unexpected Meeting

[Julia]

It was noon in the Dio Larey forest, the brightest time of the day. Not that it really mattered there, for the trees blocked most of the sunlight that tried making its way through them. A hunter was traveling past those trees, looking for anything she could catch, and then either breed or sell. She was an elf, with azure eyes and blue hair. All she had was a blue robe, a small cutting daggar, a blue elemental staff, and a few shruikens. Nothing much. She kept stopping to listen if anything was nearby, but so far she had no success in catching anything. She sighed.

[Cricket]

Dereka crouched down when she heard the hunter's breathing. She looked around, then noticed the other hunter, and relaxed. She approached her and whispered, "You hunting too? May I join you?"

[Julia]

Julia jumped when she heard Dereka. She thought she was the only hunter in here. "Uh... sure. I'm Julia." She replied, embarrassed at becoming startled.

[Tisari]

A loud rustle is heard in the bushes, as well as a screech. A small wing can be seen over the bush, and a racket is being made behind it. Investigate?

[Cricket]

"I'm Dereka." She said smiling, and she turned towards the rustle. "Let's go." She said softly, "we can split the profit, or if there's two creatures we can split them." She made her way silently towards the noise, and noticed the wing. She loved winged-creatures, and hoped there was a possibility she could keep it...

[Julia]

Julia nodded, then followed her and hid under the bush, elemental staff at ready. She hoped there were two creatures. So she could get more profit.

[Cricket]

Dereka kept her dagger and rope ready, just incase she needed them. She parted the pushes, and faced the creature.

((-waits to know what it is- Woo.. -excited- XDD))

[Julia]

Julia also stared, still staying in her defensive pose.

((Me, too! If it's a dragon, then stay away! *Hiss* XP))

[Tisari]

Two Winged-Serps are fighting viciously, you see from within the bush.
The larger one seems to be winning. The smaller one has many cuts and scars on it and is bleeding. Finally, the bigger one has it pinned down- the smaller one still has lots of energy left but is stuck and can't move. The larger Winged Serp opens it's mouth, revealing horrible fangs, and lunges in to kill it. Try to stop it?

[Cricket]

Dereka runs to the scene, not wanting to watch two Winged-Serps kill eachother and smacked the big serps head to the side, trying to make it miss it's target. She then grabbed a net she had and swiped at it, attempting to catch it. She hoped, for the sake of her not being poisoned, Julia was helping with the other one, so it didn't come from behind her and attack her.

[Tisari]

The larger of the Winged serps was flown off to the side, and he got up and hissed. The net fell over it and it struggled, flying around the clearing with the net draped overtop of it, obviously going out of control.

[Julia]

Julia ran out from under the bushes, then she used her elemental staff, and blasted the smaller serp with a small orb of water, which she hoped would knock it out.

[Tisari]

The smaller winged serp, shocked and tired, gave up easily against the water and fell limply to the ground. He was bleeding badly from a cut near his right wing- if you didn't help him fast, he might bleed to death.

[Julia]

Julia ran toward the small serp, and took a vine from the ground to tie its jaws together so it wouldn't bite her, then she picked up more vines to tie it so it wouldn't escape, and ripped a strip from her robe to tie over the worst wound that the winged serp had. That way she might just save its life, and catch it at the same time, hopefully...

[Tisari]

The serp, unconscious and knocked out, was captured and could not move. It stirred slightly, showing signs that it was still alive- all it needed was a little rest.

[Julia]

Julia sighed, relieved. A winged serp might be useful. She kept a close eye on it while she went to help Dereka with the larger serp.

[Cricket]

"Did you catch it?" Dereka asked over her shoulder, "Would you mind knocking this one out too?" She was trying to contain the large serp, and didn't want to hurt it in order to knock it out.

[Julia]

Julia replied, "Yep, I caught the smaller one. I think its going to survive." Then she used her elemental staff again, this time on the larger serp, and then threw a shruiken to pin one of its wings to a nearby tree.

[Tisari]

The Winged serp was pinned to a tree and struggled, but, knowing it would rip it's wing out if it did so, stayed put, glaring.

((That wasn't a one liner!

[Cricket]

Dereka took a small stone, and with not enough force to kill it, hit it across the head with the stone, hoping to knock it out. "How are we splitting these? I'd be willing to pay you one thousand for both of them." She asked curiously.
