Original Description: " The sun was shining bright over the world that day, warming the town and the grassy plains around it. Pali had been sitting atop one of the rolling hills, playing with something in the grass alone. She sensed her friend climbing up the hill, but she didn't turn to look. As Amos reached the top, he stood behind her for a second, wary of her sudden rages whenever he arrived. When it didn't look like she was going to attack him, he sat down next to her.

"Hey Pali..." He greeted nervously, still unable to see what she was messing with. She grunted in response. Amos looked out to the town, and they sat in silence for a bit.

After a minute, Amos decided it was an appropriate time to talk. "So... What did you choose for your extra class?" He ventured, knowing full well Pali wouldn't have decided already.

"Eh.. I don't know." She responded, and Amos sighed.

"I know you don't care about school, but it's really important for your future. Maybe I could help you decide.." Amos tensed, preparing for an attack. But she surprises him, instead answering.

"Alright, sure." She looks up at Amos from the ground, revealing what she had been messing with the whole time.

It was a mauled, bloodied creature, it's species unrecognizable now. She had torn off whatever ears, feet, and tail it had, clotting the open wounds so it would stay alive. It was twitching now, white eyes looking hopefully up at Amos. He gags, stumbling back as Pali jerks up.

"Pali, that's disgusting! Why would you even do something like that?!" Amos nearly shouts as Pali begins growling, baring her teeth slightly.

"What I do or don't do is one of your business, alright?" She spits out, as Amos backs up, preparing to take off.

Suddenly, Pali leaps on Amos, causing him to crash to the ground while pinning his wings. She swings her tail around and slices open Amos's neck with one of the spikes, which causes sand to spill out. He gurgles, unable to speak.

"You tell anyone, it'll hurt." She hisses in his ear, and he nods quickly. Pali steps off of him, and he stands and takes off towards the town. She looks back to the twitching creature once before taking off into the plains."
