Iru kept up with them at an easy pace as they moved, keeping alert to their surroundings. In here, her curiosity completely shut down and was instead put into noticing small details of escapes and possible dangers. She just wanted to get through here as quickly as possible.
Her formerly loose strides quickly became tense when they passed by a dog catcher. Holding back a quiet growl that rumbled in her chest when it started to follow. She followed the lead of her companions and sat by a woman. Forcing a slight wag from her tail while watching the robot out the corner of her eye. Waiting for it to move one. As soon as it did and Night started to move again, she sprung to her paws and followed them onwards eagerly. She just barely hear the bark in time and lightly danced out the way when a dog lunged at the end of it's leash at them. Threatening to drag down the human on the other end. Iru quickened her pace swiftly to get out of range, flattening her ears as she glanced back to make sure the dog hadn't gotten loose. |

Starfire looked back as a dog lunged at Iru. Thankfully, the owner simply yelled at it before moving on. Night had them stop at a large park where dogs were playing. Dog park, Starfire didn't like these places. Night led them inside before saying quietly, "Go around the park like you belong here. I think we've had a human on our tail for a while." Starfire looked back before seeing a male dogcatcher watching them suspiciously. Starfire flicked his ears in answer to Night.
Starfire got up saying to Iru, "Stick close," before going over to a dog group. "Hi fellas, We're new in town. Can you show us around?" Starfire said to one of the males in the circle. The dog, stupid pets, barked happily, "Sure thing! Dog parks are the best! Come on, this way!" The group got up, all of them wagging their tails and playing starting for the dog water bucket. Always the food and water first. He thought before looking back. Night was laying down in the sun, a couple pets doing the same. The dogcatcher was still watching them weirdly but after a couple moments, he went away after a stray dog. |

Coming to the dog park Iru glanced about with some uncertainty, casually looking towards the dog catcher for a moment. Dog parks weren't a well known thing to her, but she knew enough to know that the pets had no understanding of personal boundaries and were way too boisterous for her liking. She held nothing against dogs, but didn't like them getting all in her face as humans seemed to. With a slight nod, she stayed by Starfire's side as they approached a group of dogs. They agreed to show them around, they then proceeded to get up and start in a direction. At some point a scrawny looking hound approached her in a playful manner. Iru simply wagged her tail a little, giving a polite growl that got the point across that she wasn't going to play. "Are we good to go now?" She asked quietly as soon as she noticed the dog catcher had moved on. She wouldn't be listing the dog park as place to visit again. |

Starfire looked at Iru before saying to the dogs, "Oop, our owner is calling. See you guys!" The dogs immediately barked goodbye before continuing towards the dishes. He shook his head, "Why are pets so stupid?" He muttered to himself before walking over to where they had left Night. Night had gotten up before coming over to them. "This way. Every dog park has a back entrance." Night said before walking towards the back.
The large fence that was supposed to keep them in was nothing as Night undid the lock, pushing the gate open. Once they were all through, Night pushed it closed before they continued down the parkway. Now that they left the dog park behind, it was the human park that they were in. They trotted across it before pushing into an alleyway. They were close to the other side of the city now.
Starfire was almost to the other side when a siren went out. And got closer. The robot came around the corner before pointing a net gun at them. "Stray dog alert, stray dog alert. I have them cornered on..." It listed a bunch of numbers off before they got cut off suddenly. Starfire realized it was because of Night who was behind the robot with some of the wires. "Time to run." Night said before going into a fast lope towards the forest. Starfire followed, looking behind him for Iru. |

It was a relief to get moving again and they soon moved our of the dark park and through the human park before reaching an alley way. She was starting to relax a little more, the edge of the city was in sight. They'd be nearing the first part of the map. Sure, there'd be Hunters, but she was more used to them than she was navigating through the city. Then seemingly out of nowhere a siren sounded, the robot appearing from around the corner. Her ears flattened and she growled as the thing spoke before suddenly shutting down. It was still not a good idea to stick around any longer. "Didn't do a very good job at cornering us" she commented, bolting away at a steady pace along with them. Headed towards the forest. More dog catchers could be heard approaching, but they'd be able to get away just fine as long as they moved. |

"Didn't do a very good job at cornering us." Iru said, keeping pace with them. Starfire chuckled, "The robots are the easiest to get rid of, it's the humans that we have to watch out for. They got out to the meadow and Starfire could see the forest on the other side. A herd of deer grazed in the middle, unfazed by the sirens. Night stopped in front of Starfire and Iru before taking the form of a small buck. Starfire turned into a buck as well before following Night into the herd. "Keep your heads low to the ground, like your grazing. We will go into the forest once they are gone." Night said softly before going over to a few bucks to graze. Starfire stayed near the does along the edges and put his head down like he was grazing. |

Iru followed their lead and shifted into a doe before moving into the herd. Fortunately different shades of color weren't uncommon among the deer. Her head lowered to the ground in a smooth motion, effectively appearing to be grazing as all the deer were. She occupied herself by watching a few young fawns prance and frolic around playfully. If it were not for the sirens this would have been fairly peaceful. She warily kept an eye out for the dog catchers aswell, hoping they would wander away again quickly. With the amount of times they've already had to stop and wait, this probably not going to be a very short journey. |

Starfire kept his head low to the ground before seeing the vehicles pull up. He lifted his head as did the other deer. The vehicles stopped for a moment watching the deer before retreating back into the city. Starfire flicked his ears before walking over to Iru, "Coast is clear. Let's go." He said before walking over to Night who was ready for them.
Together, they headed into the forest before shifting into wolves. "Skull Rock is this way." Night said, taking the lead. Starfire followed, glancing over at Iru to make sure she could keep up. They ran for a while before coming to a small stream. Night stopped, taking a drink before looking at the sky. "It's almost dusk. Once it hits dusk, we can fly the rest of the way." Night said, laying down. Starfire took a drink before lying down to rest. He turned his head over to Iru, "How are you doing? Having fun yet?" He asked, a playful twinkle in his eye. |

Iru looked up when the vehicles appeared, her form completely still and ears pricked up, much like the rest of the deer. She watched as they stood there for a moment before finally going back into the city. Relaxing, she looked over to find Starfire already moving in her direction. Saying that the coast was clear. She moved after them into the forest, gladly shifting into a wolf form. While she was more comfortable as a fox, it would not be quite as normal to see a fox traveling with two wolves. Three wolves could be overlooked as just a normal, small pack of wolves. She kept up with them with ease as they ran. Soon they reached a stream and she lowered her head to drink before looking over to listen to what Night said. She settled down and curled herself up, laughing softly at Starfire. "Yes, I enjoy having to run and hide in creative ways from humans who want to capture us" she teased lightly. |
