Game Changer

[Halved]

Wy grabs a backpack and fills it with some logs, grass, twigs, flint and some berries. He puts it on his back, then takes two spears from a chest and hands one to the girl.

[Dara999]

Cypress takes the spear and grins. "Awesome... How strong is this thing?"

[Halved]

"I made that yesterday, so it will last for long enought...but about it's strenght, well, I'm not sure. I am weak, so for me no weapon is powerful."

[Dara999]

"Ok. I guess I'm alright strength wise... Not particularly, but meh. Lead the way bio-weapon boy~"

[Halved]

"Bio-weapon boy...yea, I like that name."

And so Wy and Cypress left the camp, searching the surrounding for the beast's tracks.

After not more then ten minutes, a small dirt pile, which after being examined revealed a track.

"Just as I told you. This track will probably lead us to him."

[Dara999]

Cypress examined the tracks herself. "What kinda animal do you think made these? Some sort of large mammal..."

[Halved]

"Well, let's find out, shall we?"

The two walk in direction of where the track was pointing, and find another track hidden by a pile of mud.

[Dara999]

They keep following the tracks until they can't find anymore dirt piles. "The tracks are fresh and I can't see any new ones, it must be around here somewhere..."

[Blewcheese]

Newleaf nodded. "That depends: What was it that stole your prey?"

[Dara999]

"A black insect came and took Wekesa's rabbit from one of her lureplants and went in that direction." She gestured to where Ox flew off with the flick of her the head.

"An insect...?" Newleaf frowned, but nodded. "Erm... Very well, I'll be vigilant." He looked off in the direction that Wekesa had gestured, the grass around him whispering in search of the black insect.

[Halved]

As the last track was revealed, right some meters from where the two were, a big, red furred creature was wandering around a bunch of trees.

Even if it's body resembled the one of a beefalo, the animal was not one of them: the most noticiable difference was the trunk he had on his face, two small fangs on the side of it, and two wide-opened white eyes over it, staring at the two.

"It...seems that is what we are looking for."

[MenaAthena]

The scientist, seeing that the frogs have gone off, stops and rests up against his spear. It only takes a moment or to for him to catch his breath. He stares at the automaton, debating whether or not to get a closer look. Eventually, his scientific curiosity won him over and he put his spear away as to not seem threatening. Then he started slowly making his way over to when the automaton stood.

[Blewcheese]

WX had been making his way to Wilson as well, and it wasn't long until he was standing in front of the human. "SCANNING... HUMAN UNKNOWN. IDENTIFICATION." He demanded, watching Wilson with soulless eyes.

[Halved]

(@Percival , I could use the koalofant to make Wy and Cypress meet Meredith. Do you think it's a good idea?)

[MenaAthena]

The scientist was amazed at the functionality of the automaton. He scanned it up and down, theorizing what allowed it to operate. It took him a second to realize the machine had spoken to him.

"Oh! Uh... Wilson. Wilson P. Higgsbury."

He extended his hand out to the automaton before awkwardly placing it back at his side, assuming the machine probably didn't want to shake his hand.

[Quiet]

Newleaf's plants don't seem to find anything, as their information about the beetle's whereabouts are outdated.

[Percival]

(Sure, why not, Halved. After I establish a proper meeting with Wakana.)

 

She weaved between the threads, slightly nicking her finger on the stray piano wire. Instead of wincing, however, she gave a small grunt, an idea forming in her mind. Despite how sharp piano wire was, and despite how many times she cut herself or other creatures, she never thought of turning the wire into a weapon, which was peculiar, considering the many times she saw blood caked on the strings.

[Dara999]

Cypress looked at the Koalefant, this was a new as the Tallbird to her. The trunk and big size told her it was an elephant and yet it was covered in fur, it couldn't be an elephant... "What is that thing?" Cypress said turning to Wy. "It looks like a furry elephant..."

[Halved]

"It's interesting...let's call it a Furryphant!"

He then swings the spear at the creature.

"Prepare to die, Furryphant!"

At these words, the creature emits a sound, then runs away, leaving Wy astonished.

"That...wasn't supposed to happen..."

[Dara999]

A grin spread across Cypress's face. "Are you gonna chase it?!"

[Halved]

"It may hurt us...though..."

[Dara999]

{Did you want to wait for Percy or what?}

[Halved]

(yes. let's wait for his reply, then Wy will or will not add something.)
