unexpected long post!

forgot to mention her skull was on during this... oopsies xD it will have broken in half when she was knocked out, landing on the ledge she had stopped on before falling into the rushing river.



She had strayed from the packlands while following a small herd of deer, aiming to bring something down of decent size yet small enough for her to drag back to Elysium for anyone else. Carefully she moved, making sure to stay downwind of the skittish animals, body low to the ground, using shadows to her advantage. Ears twitched, swiveling to the right, forward, left, then forward again while green and gray orbs ran over the heard, looking for the one she had marked as her target. It would only take a few moments before Narfi found her, a doe with a bleeding wound on the foreleg, a slight limp in her walk. Lips would be licked before pulling back to reveal her canines, eager to bring the animal down and sink her jaws into its flesh.

Most of the deer began to graze on the grass, the buck surveying the area, keeping the yearling low to the ground, hidden away. When his head would turn the opposite direction she would make her move, tail held straight out behind her and above the ground, not wanting to brush up against anything to create a sound to freak the animals. She would move steadily towards them, attempting to keep herself low, gaze and ears locked on their target. The deer would lift their heads and look around, Narfi would stop and get low, waiting for them to graze again or look the other way. That's when it happened.

Something would startle the deer, every one of their heads snapping up for a brief moment before taking off. The girl would snarl in frustration, her body jolting up then move, breaking out in a full run. She would foolishly try to catch up to her prey, muscles working hard, body growing hot, blood and adrenaline pumping. She would push on as fast as possible, wanting to at least get one more injury on the doe before slowing and just stalking the group once again, but a tremor in the earth would stop that.

The ground would begin to tremble, shaking beneath Narfi's very paws. It was unusual, something she had never experienced before which caused her to quickly come to a stop, legs spread out evenly as they only grew worse. The trembling intensified, the girl's body beginning to sway in motion with the few trees around her, their leaves rustling as though screaming. Ears would pin back against the yearlings head as the sound of a thousand horses stampeding filled the air, jaws clenching and tail going between her legs. Dust was thrown up into the air, and a nearby tree would snap in its swaying, a large branching falling and landing just three feet away from where the girl was standing. The snapping of the branch caused her to jump, head lifting for her to catch the limb falling, and even if it wasn't right above her, it was enough to make her jump away.

In all honesty, Narfi was scared as hell. The girl had never experienced such an event in her life, for all she knew, the world was coming to an end right this very second. What about the hurricane, surely she was around to experience that? The answer to that question, nope. The girl had been away when that event occurred, having roamed quite a distance away. Even if she was scared however, she wouldn't admit that to anyone, the most she would say was that she was slightly worried and that's about it. If somebody was nearby to see how she was acting though, they would think otherwise.

And then she would dart, legs working to get Narfi away from these lands as soon as possible. She had to get back to Elysium, warm the others of what was going on before it moved over there. Ears were pinned against her skull as she ran, eyes wide and head held low. She had to get out of here, even if the earth was still trembling and creating horrible sounds. But it would only get worse.

Suddenly the sounds of boulders clashing would slice through the air, making Narfi jump but she would keep going. Just behind her the sound was getting louder, the earth splitting, a gash being formed. Paws drummed against the ground, her mind screaming for her to keep going and not to stop, not to look back even if it was getting louder. And before she knew it she was not longer running, the ground beneath the wolf had given out, splitting and making her drop into darkness with a terrified yelp. Limbs would flail, back legs kicking and front legs reaching out, trying to grab onto something to stop her fall.

And then... nothingness. Narfi's body would smash into the moving walls, for what had felt like minutes of falling was actually only a couple seconds. The black wolf hit one wall that would knock her out and as her body went limp it would be thrown into another, the rough wall cutting into her flesh, creating various wounds across her body, and possibly even damaging bones. At last she would come to a stop, body hitting a ledge with a heavy thud, legs dangling over the edge for a few moments once the tremors settled. That would not be the end of it however, the ground move violently once again, Narfi's body being pulled off the ledge and tossed into a rushing river below with a splash.

How far she was from the surface would be a couple yards, possibly even more depending on how far the river carried her limp body into the darkness.
