Westbound And Down

*Kieryn* · 09-20-2016, 12:50 PM

She was a lot farther from home than she'd wanted to be. She originally hadn't gone very far, but she'd gotten lost and then had tried finding her way back. She had been pretty sure she was going the right way, but none of this looked familiar at all. At first the sights had been pretty, some of them a little too hot, but now the scenery had changed to a forest. Black stuff oozed all over the ground and overall Kieryn wasn't having nearly as much fun anymore.

More than anything her stomach rumbled loudly. It'd been a while since she'd eaten anything and she hadn't had any hunting lessons yet. She'd tried a few times to catch a mouse but she was never quite fast enough and to her dismay it always heard her coming. After that she'd given up on trying to catch anything. Well almost given up. To her surprise there was a rabbit not five feet from her. She peered at it curiously. It wasn't moving so she moved to a crouch and tried to be as quiet as possible. She had yet to discover what the black stuff was so she didn't know that the rabbit had gotten trapped and died from starvation. So she stalked to it and yet it didn't move. Why wasn't it running from her.

She was next to the thing now and the bottoms of her paw pads were touching the ooze. She didn't notice though. Instead she poked the rabbit with her nose and to her surprise it didn't move at all even after that. She decided to sniff it and to her satisfaction it seemed like it was dead. A free meal! Tiny jaws clamped around an ear and she went to walk away with it when she realized she couldn't move her feet. Letting go of the rabbit's ear she looked down at the black stuff and tried to move her feet again. No luck. Panic welled up in her now. Why couldn't she move?
