Laughing till they die
Emersyn

Against her better judgment, Emersyn had left the sanctuary of the Hallows castle to start retracing some of her steps from her days of fleeing her pursuers. She had to know how many of them were still following her, or if any of them had been through the area looking for her. While she appreciated the offer of safety and protection with Indigo and his band, she didn't want to even consider accepting it without knowing the magnitude of the threat that loomed over her. Em passed through the arid canyon she had tried to lose the bounty hunters in, finding no familiar scents, but there was a recent one somewhere close by. Her hackles bristled. Was someone still here looking for her? If so, she'd have to dispatch of them quickly and quietly. One less hunter meant more time on her clock.
Em followed the strange scent until she found a cave with a clan of hyenas snapping and growling at something inside. The stranger's scent led into the cave, which meant whoever it was was now trapped in there by the scavenging canines. For a brief moment, Emersyn considered just letting the hyenas tear the stranger to shreds on the off chance that they were a bounty hunter after her. But the more she thought about it, the more she realized that if she was wrong she'd be condemning an innocent to a gruesome death. Rolling her eyes with a groan, Emersyn brought up her fighting instincts and ran at the hyenas, growling and snarling as she rushed the small group, lunging for the nearest one with a violent server. Her jaws grabbed the smaller canine's scruff, tossing it about like a rag doll before hurling it into the side of the cliff with a rough smack, the scavenger laughing in fear and scurrying away. One down, only a fuckton more.
"Hey, you! Start biting!" she shouted into the cave as the hyenas began to turn on her, a couple taking snaps at her injured leg and getting her fangs in their scruffs as a result, pained yelps joining the violent growls and maddening laughter.
