For'mya and Eirene were racing side by side down the ridge, almost identical in size and color. Their powerful hind muscles propelled them at great speed, so fast that they were closing on a group of five creatures who had managed to get around behind them and were chasing the slowest members of the Processing Group that were running for the Landing Zone. For'mya quickly spied the running figures of three females and two male elves who were trying to keep them between them.
Mother! Eirene screamed out within Mindvoice.
I see them! For'mya barked.
We will not reach them in time! Eirene rasped as her paws dug harder into the ground trying to go faster.
Faster Eirene! Shift just before we reach them and use your weapons! For'mya shouted out as she dug her paws in harder and moved faster.
