Poachers. Poachers Everywhere. [Done]

As Arthur was just sulking around wondering where his friend went, a Black Jackalope appeared between the piles of snow. He was, well, brought by Skybreeze. He was just bored so he didnt minded going with his friend for now. Equius walked up to the snow pile Arthur was standing on. "Hey you, have you-" Arthur turned at the Jackalope. "Gah! You scared me! Im sorry, for a moment I thought you were my friend. She's hiding somewhere, I know it!" He yelled as Equius just stood there. "A friend? There's no one here, f001. I just came and never saw anyone." He said with a unusual look at his face. "Bleh... Im lookind for someone, too. Have you seen a blue Aures anywhere?" He said as Arthur thought for a brief moment that this Jackalope knew about his friend. "You mean... Skybreeze. She's still here, hiding from us." He said as Equius nodded in response.

Equius had a idea on his mind. "Well, what are you waiting for? Lets look for her!" He said as Arthur jumped from the pile of snow and ran to the trees, looking around. But Equius just put his little plan to work. He ran to the same tree as Arthur, and started to punch it untill all the snow on it fell. The snow fell on Arthur, and Equius laughed at him. "She's not here... but at least I got something to laugh at!" He said as Arthur got mad at him. But he didnt wanted to get into a fight with him because he doesnt really know him. He started to dislike him a little but he still didnt do anything. Equius just smiled as he walked to another tree.

Equius started to punch the other tree, the snow falling near Arthur as he was walking to him. Arthur was glad the snow didnt fell on him again, but as he tried to say something, Equius alredy ran off to the other tree. "Sigh, this guy is a quick one..." He said as he tried to run to the other three. He tried not to be... too slow. The tree Equius was at was bigger than the other ones. He punched it once, but the tree barely moved. Angered, he started to punch it untill all the snow fell. He stopped upon hearing someone behind him. "Who's that?!" He said as Arthur arrived right by the pile of snow.

Equius and Arthur started to search around the pile of snow. An Aures popped out of it, struggling to get out. "That's her!" Equius said as Arthur was about to say the same, but helped his friend instead. "Hey, you guys!" Skybreeze said as she jumped out of the snow pile and landed between the two Jackalope. "Im sorry, this time I got stuck in this tree. I wasnt hiding, I swear!" She said as Arthur just smiled, glad that she didnt wanted to sneak on them again.

After Equius and Arthur finished building up their fort, Skybreeze flew on top on her own. "You two, are you ready?" She said as Equius looked upon Skybreeze, and nodded. "Allright then... get set....Go!" She yelled at them as she picked up a few snowballs and jumped high enough to see Arthur's fort, and threw them at him. Arthur was just hit on one of his shoulders. "Gah, that silly Aures is a quick one..." He said as he was about to throw a snowball, but Equius said, "She might be fast, but not STRONG enough!" He said as a snowball hit him on the head and snow got around his glasses. He shaked his head and grabbed a snowball...

"Hey, what are you doing?" Arthur asked to Equius as he was making a odd snowball. He just smirked as he thought Equius was planning something. "Mind if I help? I have something that could help." He said as he took another small snowball, and he made it float out of nowhere. He then started to build larger snowballs with... "Is that Magic I see there?" He said as he gave a large, evil grin. He liked the way Arthur thinked. Maybe they should get more along and just deal with what he done with him.

As Equius and Arthur finished their plans, they didnt even noticed that snowballs were thrown at them. "You ready, Iggybrows?" Equius asked to Arthur as he lifted a pile of large, glowing snowballs that we could control. "Indeed I am." He said as he started to control the snowballs, making them float out of nowhere as Equius lifted one of the large snowballs, They both threw their snowballs at Skybreeze's fort, destroying it, but Skybreeze wasnt there. "Where did she go?!" Equius said as he and Arthur walked towards the ruined-down fort.

"She couldnt have noticed our ambush that fast, she was still throwing an endless shower of snow over us." Arthur said as the two Jackalope turned towards a tree in front of Skybreeze's fort. There was a shadow over there! "Hey, what's that...?" Equius wondered if it could be Skybreeze. "Wait... that's not... an Aures... its..." Arthur said as the two just stood there. They looked at each other for a moment. They both realized that they werent truly Jackalopes, and that they might go see who could be there without fear. But they were both sure that it was a human... Poacher? The two ran back to their fort and stood there, hiding...

Arthur tried to crouch as low as he could in fear. Equius just looked around while hiding, looking at the odd human. He then found out that the human was searching for Jackalopes, obviously, but he seemed to have found something more... intersting. "S-say, who is it? What is he doing...?" Arthur said as he slowly walked to Equius, trying to see. "Hmph, seems that we came at a wrong time. Its hunting season for those f001ish poachers. Because its not really cold here yet, they took the chance that a few Jackalope wander around this place." He said as he renembered hearing that from the Jackalope that live near his underground cavern. He thought that they were right, Equius never knew there were actually humans like that in Aeris. He was reminded of a group of human kids he met before, he kind of forgot them all that time he's been a Jackalope.

"So... what is he doing? Is Skybreeze still hiding somewhere?" Arthur asked as Equius noticed there was something hanging in a tree. "I think I can see... a trap? Someone's stuck in there!" Equius said as he tried to get a better look. He ran quickly towards a tree and hided. "Maybe its a Jackalope! We cant let that human take it away..." Arthur said as he ran to a tree near Equius. "Who knows what he could have captured. Lets try stopping him!" Equius said as he looked at Arthur, then he pointed at the tree where the trap was. Arthur nodded, and quickly ran to a tree near the human...

Arthur chuckled as he took a snowball and threw it near the human. Equius noticed the snowball thrown at him, and he took a large one and threw it where Arthur did. "Hey, I can see someone in the trap... Its Skybreeze!" Equius spat as the human noticed the snowballs thrown at him, and he took the trap net with the Aures and ran away. "Pretty odd, huh? I thought Humans could find the difference between a Jackalope and an Aures!" Equius laughed as Arthur walked to him. He just laughed along with him, but he found that pretty odd. "But we obviously should look for her, no? Look, that man even left footprints of his boots here. They're pretty weird, but they can still lead us to him." He said as Equius nodded and the two followed the footprints, wondering where could the human be heading now.

Arthur stopped walking upon hearing something unusual. "Hey, maybe that human isnt alone. I can see smoke from those trees... something must be burning!" He said as Equius just continued walking, he was sure the humans could be hiding something behind those trees. Arthur just followed him, but then Equius stopped. "Oh great... now we stumbled upon a Human camp." He said as he growled, as Arthur was thinking on what could they do now. Skybreeze wasnt anywhere, but there were lots of cages covered in snow...

"Whatever. We just need to find Skybreeze and get the heck out of here." Equius said with his unusual angered face. "Those f001lish humans have no idea who are they dealing with!" He said as Arthur placed his paw on his shoulder. "We should be carefull. We dont want to end up captured, Yes?" He said as he tried to calm him down again. "Fine. I have a plan... follow me." Equius suddently responded as he ran behind one of the cages. There were a few humans outside, sitting around the campfire and talking and making lots of noise. Arthur thought it could be a chance to get to Skybreeze because they seemed pretty distracted. "Hey, Equius. I see someone over there." Arthur said as he followed him, and found a cage at the distance.

Equius nodded in response as he slowly walked to the cage, but a human suddently appeared, he took the cage and placed inside a nearby tent. "Dangit... Arthur, that Poacher just took Skybreeze into that tent." He said as Arthur followed him to the tent. There were lots of empty cages, he sighed as he thought it would take time to find the one with Skybreeze. As the two walked around the tent, they heard a voice. "Uhh, h-hello..." Arthur thought that it could be a Jackalope! He started to look around the cages, but Equius was looking for Skybreeze instead...

"Hey, Equius... I found someone here." Arthur said as Equius ran back to the cage. "Dont worry, Im here to get you out!" Equius said as he punched the cage once, but the Jackalope walked away. "No... leave me here. I know that those humans will take me somewhere better than this freezing place." The Jackalope said as Equius stopped. "But you dont know where are those Poachers exactly taking you to! We want to help you." Arthur replied as Equius tried to open the cage. "R-really? Their food is really nice and they care for me... I like being here." The Jackalope replied as she walked back to the cage's door. "Yes, really. You should join us, we promise you'll be fine." Arthur said as Equius punched and opened the door, the Jackalope walking out of it.

"Oh right... my name's Equius. This guy here is Arthur. Well, Iggybrows." Equius said as Arthur laughed for a while, then he asked, "Your name? What is your name?" The wild Jackalope shivered for a moment. She didnt seemed to fully trust the two other Jackalope yet. "Im... Kezzai..." She said as Equius just gave a faint smile. He thought that Kezzai was really unsecure of what could he and Arthur do. "Well, we have a friend, an Aures who was just captured here, her name's Skybreeze. Have you seen her?" Equius asked as Kezzai nodded. "Oh, that blue Aures? A human came by and left a cage with her, I think." She said as she walked to a small cage and jumped over it. There was a tall table and the cage with Skybreeze was on it.

Kezzai tried to open the cage but Skybreeze was asleep in it. "Your friend here is sleeping...Should I wake her up?" She asked as Arthur nodded and Equius laughed a little. Kezzai tried to reach for Skybreeze, she touched her forehead once, poking it. "Hey, wake up. Your friends are coming to get you out." She said as Equius and Arthur jumped on the cage Kezzai was on. Skybreeze woke up but she only moved a little towards Kezzai. "Come on, Skybreeze, there's humans outside and we dont have much time!" Arthur yelled as Skybreeze suddently got up and just stood there. "W-what...? How did I ended up here?" She said as Equius sighed. "Hey, we'll tell you what happened later, lets go!" He replied as the group walked back to the tent's entrance.

"We should be carefull, those humans might seem distracted but if we make too much noise, they'll find us." Kezzai said as Equius and Arthur walked behind a few cages, as Skybreeze jumped and flew to Equius' head, and Kezzai following them. But then she slipped and fell, making a loud thump. "Who's there?!" A voice was heard as Kezzai tried to get up quickly. "Hurry! I'll stop them for a while." Equius said as Skybreeze flew to Arthur's head and Kezzai followed him to the forest where the humans couldnt find them. A human appeared near Equius, he climbed up the crate he had by his side and jumped on the human, trying to punch him but he kept missed. He then fell as the human tried to get him off, and Equius ran to the group.

"Where are they? Did we evaded them?" Kezzai asked as Equius nodded, arriving by Arthur. "At least for now, but they might search for us later." He said as Skybreeze jumped down Arthur's head. "So England, what now?" She asked as Arthur stood there for a moment, watching the human camp as the humans there were looking around. "We cant do much, really... we should try to get away." He said as the group nodded and walked back to the spot they were having a snowball fight.

Skybreeze sighed as she wondered if her friends might play again, but at least she was glad they were able to rescue her and Kezzai. "Say, well, at least this was fun! Maybe we should come here after those Poachers are gone!" Skybreeze said as Kezzai just smiled. She would really like something like a snowball fight sometime. "So where do you live?" She asked as Skybreeze jumped on Equius' head. "We live in a really nice forest. There's lots of burrows and a cave where we three live in. But its a really cool cave!" She said as Arthur nodded, and the group headed outside the forest, towards the sunset...
