Backdated to yesterday, the 15th Feb. This is his collar-thread for the BWP! He is just outside of Morningside's borders, close enough for someone to find if they are patrolling.
It was the distant, heavy thrum of some unknown beast that caught his attention first when he was nearing the borders of Morningside. Instantly his ginger ears had perked and his head raised, muzzle drawn skyward to sniff the air, but the scent was one unrecognisable to him. In fact, he could not smell anything unusual at all as of yet. So despite his nerves he continued forward, tail lashing uncertainly behind his rear.
He would have continued this until he got home, but he found himself halting as the sound grew louder, evolving into a deep rumble that scattered birds and caused the fearful cry of many creatures fleeing the areas nearby in a desperate attempt to get to safety. Kieran, having never experienced such a feeling or heard such a sound, felt his heart pound against his chest and his breath came in short gasps. What on earth was happening?
By now, he was running. While peering at the sky to see the birds dash away he had caught sight of a dark figure growing in size (though truthfully it was only nearing him) that appeared a large, metal bird-creature. Heart flooding with panic, his paws raced across the ground toward the Plateau, kicking up snow as he went, and his mind became hazy, images of his family and friends flashing by - at this point, he truly believed he was going to die. It felt like snakes were tightening, constricting around his chest and forcing his breaths to be shallow, the rumble louder than thunder, or the strike of lightening during a rough storm. He'd never seen or heard anything like this... Kieran began to block out the direction in which he was running, eyes closed out of terror and the rumbling engulfing his ears so that no other sounds could be recognised.
And that was when he felt the sharp sting in his side, vision beginning to fade to black. He tumbled, and the young hunter was left lying uncouncious in the snow, body limp with a strange, foreign contraption around his neck.
