Sokka the 49th - [Action/Written]

[It was another day at the Avatar house. Well, minus the lack of Katara. Which meant a quiet breakfast. Too quiet. Suki and Zuko were quiet on their own. But Aang? That wasn't like him. So after cleaning up, he decides to go check on the weird bald monk. Only when he opens up Aang's room... it's an all too familiar sight. It's been emptied out completely. All that's left is the bed, furniture... and Roku's air glider. Again. They sent Aang back again. Barely even two months and he was already gone. It wasn't enough they had to take Katara, but now this...

He lingers for a few seconds, then grabs the staff and storms out of the house. That is, unless, Zuko or Suki happen to stop him first. Either way, he'll end up in the forest later. He and Momo are trying to find Appa, who they can't find either. What they do find, however, is the unusual carcass of a deer. It doesn't take long for Sokka to note that the wounds that killed it don't match any animal in his world or this one. With Momo acting skittish, he gives themselves some distance before opening his journal and writing a message.]


What kind of predator kills its prey with punctures to the skull?

((ooc: Sokka can be found leaving his house or in the woods at any point, the latter scenario will be with Momo on hand. Sokka is still dressed up like this. No wig, but his hair is down, since it refuses to stay in a hairtie.))

Even so, you don't know what could be out there. At the very least the patrols should be alerted.

Possibly, if it was a creature, maybe that's why they killed it, but then didn't eat it?

[Monsters, not animals.]

No signs of a struggle? It's fast, then. Or very quiet.... Maybe it can put people to sleep, or... [Insert babble about status effects here.]

[Vash figured, but he likes to think positive.] True, but there are a lot of strange creatures in Luceti that I don't think many on my world would call natural. [Like the Pokemon.] But it would be better to be safe than sorry.

...do you need a hand?

Punctures to the skull?

[There's a pause as Giles thinks on that, before writing more] Are the brains missing? Or the spinal fluid?

... Sokka. I know you're in need of a distraction, but please ... consider the dangers a little more.

Alright. If I hear anything more I'll let you know.

....Is there a good amount of mess or are the holes relatively clean?

It would be a lot more helpful if I knew that. There are a couple of demons from my world that kill by either puncturing the skull and draining the brain or doing the same, only draining the spinal fluid.

But that's as far as I know on the matter.

Probably a safe course of action, actually.

[...] I'd like to take a look first, though, if you wouldn't mind.

I suppose I can't argue with you. Just don't end up another example.

I'll be there as soon as I can. [And the journal is closed]

[It's only a little over a half hour later that Sokka can probably hear the footsteps, and it doesn't take much longer for Giles to find him and the dear's corpse. He pauses at the sight of it, makes a face] Lovely.

Well, I certainly doubt it's Moro...

are you worried?
