"There might be some stray zintelii... but they're hard to kill. There's a lot of scales and feathers on them... but they're huge. We'd both eat enough for a while."

"What the heck is a zintelii? And there's no way I'd share with you if I caught one."

"It's a big dragon bird thing... feathered wings, beak, bird brain, speed of a dragon, scaled body, and big teeth`" Sumi explained, doodling one in the dirt with a stick.

"Right, whatever. I hope they eat fish 'cause I volunteer you to distract it, and hopefully get eaten. Then I'll kill the thing."

She listened again and heard growling. "If that isn't one, then at least it's a big animal."

"Great, let's kill it." She turned in the direction of the growl and listened closely, though she couldn't yet see the source of the sound.

Sumi followed. She let Tansa lead because the cat could see and smell better. Sumi heard the growl again. "Definitely a Zintelii."

Tansa glanced back when she noticed Sumi was behind her now. "What's the matter, Fish-girl? Are you chicken?" she taunted. "Hah, I always knew your kind was pathetic."

Sumi narrowed her eyes and shoved past Tansa, drawing her sword. "No." she replied firmly.

Tansa hissed when Sumi touched her, but she held back from swiping at the girl. Hmph. Let's see if she's as strong as she thinks. I hope that zin-whatever the heck it's called tears her apart.

Natsumi carefully went forward until she saw the massive creature. It was hunched over the bodies of a few dead birds, blood running off its monstrous teeth. It suddenly lifted its head and looked around, glaring into the woods.
"Zintelii..." she mouthed.

Tansa stopped in her tracks behind Natsumi when she saw the beast. She stared for a moment, getting a better look. Is that all? It's not so scary. I could probably take something twice its size on my own.

Natsumi smirked, her eyes flashing pure purple. While the ability never worked on Tansa, there was nothing in her way now. She gripped the hilt of her sword and moved it into an attack position. Time to strike!
The beast began to writhe in pain, roaring and twitching as it felt its pulse quicken. Sumi chargde from the blackness and attacked, swiping her sword along the Zintelii's side. "Feel free to join in at any time!" she called back to Tansa as blood splattered the forest floor.

Tansa sat back and watched for a bit, tail swaying slowly in boredom. At first it confused her how the beast was in pain when it hadn't been touched, but she soon realized that it was because of Natsumi's abililty. "Darn, I guess the thing won't be able to kill her. Oh well." She lazily got to her paws and trotted forward, circling behind it while it was distracted by Sumi. Coming around from the other side, she lunged at its throat.

It tucked its head so she couldn't reach the throat and lashed out, snapping its terrible teeth inches away from Tansa's body. The thing was large enough to be able to crunch her right in half if it caught her. Its tail and wings twitched wildly and its heartbeat suddenly became rapid and loud enough from the strain for them to hear it as if it were their own.
Natsumi cut wildly, her eyes ablaze with madness. I can't remember the last time I did this...the blood...the wild pulse...it's so reinvigorating! ...I think I haven't done this since- Yes that would be about then. I haven't done this since my parents.
She let out a battle cry and twisted around, vaulting off the Zintelii's tail in order to flip over its back onto its other side, still cutting and dragging the sword along with her in a crimson line.
