Quickly, while you still can

Thanks Stevie! :D I'm also gonna say, if no one minds, that out of the two types of rabies (One paralyzes and the other makes animals vicious,) it has the type that makes it aggressive.

Somnia turned around for a moment when the scents and sound of new arrivals came. Tempest had managed to conjure four of the other Caldera members from their daily tasks. That meant there would be a total of six of them. She snapped back to watching the rabid creature as it demonstrated its madness for them.

An eyes focused on the coyote, ears focused on the others, Somnia answered their questions. "No, no one's gotten bit, and I plan to keep it that way. The game plan would be what Finley said. We have to get it towards water, and Lake Rodney would be closest. The ice should be thin enough for it to fall through if it steps on the ice. Getting it to chase us to the lake and making a sharp turn before it can stop should achieve that. But, the lake's still a ways to go, and I don't want to take any chances with its stamina somehow being greater than one of ours. So even if it ends up unnecessary, I want us to take turns having the coyote chase us one on one, so that none of us tire and fall victim to it. Since there are six of us, each of us can cover one-sixth of the distance from here to Lake Rodney. I can cover the first sixth, Tempest second, Elwood next, then Mikael, Finley, and lastly Ashton, who can cover the last sixth and run it onto the lake by making a sharp turn.

"Anyone not agree with this or have questions? I can delay the coyote before Ashton gets into place, to make sure I don't start running until everyone is ready. Ashton, you'll just have to let out a howl to let me know when you're in place. If you don't have any questions, get into place! And make sure you're in the open so that the runner before you can see you!" That was a lot of words. Hopefully no one disagreed with them, for the rabid coyote was looking eager to start too. It took a step forward, foam falling from its mouth. Somnia took a step back, careful not to run and trigger any chasing reflexes in the creature.

"Be safe everyone." It was a whisper to herself that no one else could hear. If anyone caught the disease during this, Somnia would never forgive herself.

Oh, and I purposely put the order of the wolves in our posting order to make things progress easier! ^.^
