Halloween round 2 (maybe with less snakes this time, maybe)

Not again! Gloom practically jumped out of her skin as the three figures seemed to appear right in front of her. She seemed to falter as she fought to keep her paws under her and herself upright, but she did manage it, even if her tail started to tuck and ears pulled back nervously. She watched the trio carefully, dual toned eyes jumping between all three but it seemed they were doing the same, watching... Waiting. For her? To do what? Gloom swallowed the lump that had formed in her throat. She observed them all again, closer this time and though she probably should have ultimately chosen the excited looking stranger she felt her heart tugging with empathy towards the one straight ahead, with a sad expression.

Gloom moved slowly towards her. "Are- Are you okay?" Not that she was sure she could help considering the canine before her seemed in a bad way.
