On Earth as it is in Heaven [CHALLENGE]

Viviane watched with wide eyes and rounded mouth as the adults argued back and forth, gasping at Artur's use of a bad word, but when another male had appeared covered in blood and speaking in a really scary tone of voice, her eyes went even wider, and her gaze darted to her brothers and sister questioningly. Maybe we should go home, she wanted to say, wanted to agree with Geoffrey, but the words withered away before she could say them. She knew Artur would just say something mean if she did, and she didn't want to put herself in that position. Better to just be quiet and wait for Artur to get bored so they could go. It would all work out.
But then the blood-covered man shook himself off like he was shaking off water, sending blood spraying across her from where she had sat in the front row. She jerked her head back with an involuntary shriek as globules of congealed blood splashed across her face, leaving wet clotted streaks of the dark, coagulated substance across the top of her muzzle and forehead and splattering her previously snowy white throat and chest. "Geoffrey! Caelia!" she wailed, throwing herself backward wildly and trying to burrow beneath her siblings. "Please, Artur, please let's just go, they're crazy, someone's going to try to take us too, please let's go home. I want Mom. I want Princess. Please, let's just go before someone sees us." The big tall man with the eye spots had already tried to take a yearling away from someone, and the big angry pale man had taken a mom and her babies. Why would anyone take a mom and her babies? Or a yearling? And if they'd take a mom-and-babies and a yearling, what was to stop someone from taking the whole lot of the Adravendi pups? Or worse, just Viv? She couldn't stand the thought of being taken away from her siblings. Or what if Caelia got taken? Or poor Geoffrey? But Artur was ignoring her, talking softly to them about the adults there. Viviane couldn't help but agree that they were all behaving really quite poorly and shouldn't adults have better manners than this? But unlike Artur she did not want to stick around to see any more of it.
