All Welcome 
This prompt A recent minor earthquake reveals a new den -- with former occupants.


Ajei had been napping in the midafternoon sun. When a great rumbling in the ground, that vibrated her body, made her wake up. She was disoriented and she whimpered as she stood and the ground rolled and bucked beneath her feet. She could feel the vibrations in her body, in the skin and the bone, and it made the organs of her stomach quiver and her teeth chatter. Birds flew from the treetops and the squirrels and other such creatures chattered madly. She lay her ears to her skull and on she pressed herself back into the ground. Claws scrabbling to gather purchase, but that drew her nearer the vibrations and for a moment she was dioriented.

Nearby a loud crack was heard and she watched with trepidation as a tree branch fell and the hill that was also near it, crumbled and fell away like dust. Fine dirt particles flew up into the air and a chasm just a little bigger than her mama opened up in the hill. Then the ground stopped shaking and the smaller animals calmed and Ajei felt instant relief. 

She lay upon the ground briefly, refusing to move. While her body grew reaccustomed to the area around them. And her stomach stopped pitching and feeling funny. She closed her little green eyes and took deep breaths. Trying to calm the staccato of fear that had racheted up her heart rate.

Slowly, she got to her four paws and moved towards the hole, but what met her had her screaming like a banshee as a grinning head of gleaming white caught her attention followed by another and then three small ones. She screeched again, it looked so eery. She tried to run, tried to back up and instead she landed hard on her rear haunches and then rolled, her body rebelling, knees buckling on the small incline, and moving her closer when she fell than to get away. So she closed her eyes tight as she came to rest after her small tumble right in front of the den of dead things.
