Etain flew quickly after Crymson and Dawnfire, leaving Rena and her mount behind. <i>Etain,</i> Sorcha screamed at him mentally, <i>We have to go back and make sure she doesn't fall!
There are others back there.</i> Etain said. <i>They'll watch her.</i> Sorcha glanced back. <i>They're falling behind. Etain, go back.</i> She grabbed the reins tightly and turned him around. They made they're way to the back of the group. Sorcha wasn't sure what she could do to help Rena, but she wanted to be near her just in case.

Soon a bunch of hazy figures appeared far ahead of them. The thermals died down as the figures approached the group.
"Oh no..."Crymson whispered. The figures were about the size of a large horse, powerful looking back legs were tucked close to their bodies. Their small feet had huge sicle like claws on each of the inside toes. Their arms were small and useless looking except for the large sickle like claws on the middle finger.
Their bodies were birght yellow, with jagged markings in shimmery gold, they were strangely hypnotic. Their arms and legs were red, with ruddy red markings. Their wing arms and fingers were grey with silver markings. The wing flaps were a mixture of swirly greens and purples. All of the markins were hypnotc and if you stared at them too long you began to feel dizzy. They had bright blue necks and chest. They all had one horn jutting out over their head and two horns swirling around by their mouth. They had two long teeth jutting straight forward out of their mouths.
"Herreronychus...not good. Not good at all." Soon the group of Herreronychus had reached their group. Dawnfire hovered as the group of fifty or more Herreronychus surrounded them.
(Herreronychus is pronounced huh-RAR-ick-us)

Sorcha looked at the strange figures, surprised at their sudden approach. Etain whickered uneasily. <i>I don't like this, Sorcha.</i>

A very large Herreronychus flew his way into the circle that his herd had made, he faced Crymson and the group eyeing them carefully. He was larger than the others by at least three feet. He was jet black save for a cresent moon slash of white over his left eye.
"Who is your leader?"He hissed through his teeth. His long forward facing teeth clacked unervingly as he spoke. He turned his head sharply so he could look at Kithoran.
"Are you their leader? You have the look of one who would lead this rabble across my gorge."Crymson was about to speak but Dawnfire silenced her with a shake.

Moran wisely stopped flying and remained hovering. Mirima watched the creatures with interest, but could only look at them for a few seconds before her keen eyes began to burn. The feeling around the group was tense, the anticipation growing with every moment.

Kith rubbed his eyes as he diverted his gaxe from the Herreronychus. The were hard to look at without getting dizzy. Whay could they possibly wat? He had heard of them breifly in legend, but not enough to kno if they were good natured or not.

Aurora could only look at the Herreronychus for a moment and then her eyes started to burn painfully. Midnight shook her head nervously, but flew on. Aurora calmed her without a word. She didnt know that Herreronychus existed, she thought they were only a legend.

"Are you their leader!"The Herreronychus hissed again at Kith. The Herreronychus twisted his head around so that is was laying flat over his back. He screamed loudly and the group tightened their circle around the Chosen.
The leader flipped his head back and surveyed the group."My name is Dumelarontus, Dume to my herd. You have passed through my gorge with out permission, you shall die now unless you surrender, even then you will die."He said maelovently(sp?).
"He is not our leader,"Crymson broke in, unable to contain herself."I am, and you do not won this gorge, it was declared free to all after the Ancients fell."

"I'm not the leader" Kith spoke, right as Crymson did. He waited for er to finish. "What does it matter if we pass by, hm?" He questioned fiercly. "We do not destroy this place, we do not take your belongings, we do not intend harm. And if for whatever reson you think it in your right mind to attack us in cold blood, you will find we defend ourselves." Kith's glare was smoldering, but he could only keep it on Dume for so long. "Think hard, and keep your sharp tongue in your mouth." He spoke to the cold air above Dume's head.
Kiowa screeched softly. "Kith, rudnes will not get you any where." The griffin bowed her head slightly. "My name is Kiowa, and this man is called Kith. My apologies on his rude behavior. We do not have an ill will, we simply wish to pass through. We will not trouble you, you have my word"

Dume laughed loudly, his teeth clacking together.
"You show much spirit Griffin, thinking that we will let you pass through our cavern. We have long resided here, in peace after the Ancients, yet you seek to ruin our calm!"Dume shrieked as his Herreronychus attacked.

"It seems rather like you are looking for it." Kith growled. "We would have passed through here with out trouble and without knowing of you being here, had you not approached us. Let us pass, and we will be no trouble." Dume attack, and Kiowa screeched. Kith drew his long sword. "So much for not being trouble. "Just know, it was you who started the trouble. Don't start whining about it later." Kith yelled. Kiowa glanced quickly at him. "Humor?" she questioned. Kith smiled slightly. "Death and fighting bring out the fun in me." He said simply and guffly.

Dawnfire dropped like a stone, his massive wings folded close to his body, five of the Herreronychus followed him but were batted aside as he released a jet or pure white flame. He snapped his wings open and shot up past the group. Crymson drew her sword and jabbed a couple of the Herreronychus in the head.
"If you can, snap their horns or teeth off, they're much weaker that way! And don't stare at them too long!"Crymson shouted as Dawnfire looped and went after several other of the beasts.

Kith snarled, forcefully keeping himselk in human shape. His body very much so wished to shift the the better fighter, the panther, but that woul do no good without solid ground. He kept his two-leggedness, and gripped Kiowa tightly with his knees. The griffin dived suddenly, her talons extended. She had aimed perfectly, and as she pulled sharply out of her dive, her two back talons caught a Herreronychus in the back of the skull, popping int out of place and crushing the nerve cord. The beast dropped like a stone.

(Dark, any idea how many are attacking? For reference purposes  )
Mirima groaned and drew her sword, releasing the forcefield. She had been really hoping for an uneventful trip. As if that would happen!
Moran followed Dawnfire's lead, and dove towards the bubbling lava. Pursued by four beasts, Moran shot a bolt of energy at the nearest one, causing it to fall down dead. While attempting to evade the Herreronychus's attacks, Mirima slashed deftly with her sword, slicing the throat of another, and snapping off a horn from the third. As they went closer to the lava, Mirima began to feel weaker. Moran, we need to go higher!

(There are around fifty of them, Dume isnt attacking, he just led the charge. A couple have already been killed so now there about 45 or so.
Their attacking style:they're a bit like hawks, as in they stoop(dive) to attack, they jab you anywhere they can with their teeth and their weak moment is when they have to pull their teeth our of your flesh, thats the time to attack. Often they will attack in groups of three or five, two will dive in and the rest will beat you off as you try to attack the ones lodged in your flesh.)

((Ooh, creepy!))
A small group of Herreronychus headed towards Sorcha and Etain. Etain flew upwards, trying to keep the beasts from attacking from above. They followed. Suddenly he stopped flying and dropped. Sorcha lashed at them with her sword, chopping the horn off one's head and slashing another across the chest. The wounded ones growled and dived towards the falling horse. Etain desperately started flapping his wings again, flying forwards and up. Sorcha cut off another's horn. The monsters fell back momentarily.
