markofthewise | Sokka the 49th

[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.))

I checked. There's no signs of a bullet. The puncture hole doesn't go as deep as it should have.

Hm, so it'd have to be small, but powerful.

I'm not sure.

Yeah... [He shakes his head and lets out a sigh. So much for that.]

is it a clear circle? Could it have been a dagger?

No. Not a dagger. You'd think someone did it with a really thick nail. But a nail that wasn't tipped at the end.

That is strange.

Maybe someone will have a better idea of what it is.

I hope so, it's a waste to just kill a deer and not even use it. [He wouldn't kill it to begin with, but he's a big boy and knows animals have to eat.]

... I should probably burn it. With a kill like that, there could be something wrong with the meat.

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

That's not what I meant. I mean, whatever killed it isn't natural. Who knows what it could have done to it.

[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?

Yeah, but there hasn't been anything like that since the earthquake. Unless that's starting up again...

Anyway, I have Eferin. I can do it on my own. [He doesn't want company.]

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

Alright. Thanks, Vash.
