A low rumble emitted from a hole in the large grey rocks shaped like a triangle. The massive form of the Hunter exploded from the sanctity of its over sized den, ready to find its next meal while viewing the aircraft over head. A quick pan back showed many bones of long forgotten prey that a usual person would ask how could an Elder Thrope kill that. Elder Thrope got their name from there white mane/beard that made them look ancient, however they were all different ages. This specimen we are discussing in the story, happened to be a rogue male who was excommunicated from his pack for killing too ruthlessly. The second rider was whizzing by on a modified red bike. She was a Dragnock by ethnic race, but very competitive by nature, she would not give up. The last of the three of the competitors, who was looking to finish top three in the race, was an Elvnock of large proportions with ripped arms and sharp eyes, not willing to give up any more ground. Our leader Xin was beginning to get nervous, with two more experienced riders gaining on him. These two had been competing for years, while Xin was a noobie and hoping his tech would shock the competition. Just as they were coming up on a giant clearing, they all heard what sounded like thunder coming from the edge of the clearing. Then they heard two gigantic trees snap near the edge of the forest. Xin muttered,” Now what”, when a massive wolf jumped into view the size of a cargo ship. The Elder Thrope had to make a direct attack, as he had no pack and a jaw snap was his best shot. Xin was the first attempted, meal as the wolf approached from the North bent on adding to his bone yard. Xin saw the Thrope approach from a mile, but not before the ET was able to swipe his paw under the speeder with good effect as the craft rocked and started smoking. The second racer just avoided the body of the wolf as it was thrown directly at him. He ended up spinning out but kept on course. The third racer Elf had to perform evasive maneuvers, to get out of the way of the wolfs tail witch was swinging down on an odd angle. All and all, the first attack by the ET had been OK. Now the racers were heading into a wooded area, flanked by another clearing this with taller grass and on the out skirts low lying hills indicated the beginning of a massive mountain range. Near the beginning of the clearing there was some wild Ox unawares of the oncoming carnage. When the first three racers burst into the clearing Ox were chewing calmly, bothering no one, when they started to scatter. When the ET crashed into view the scene turned into pandemonium, as the Ox heard flew into a full stampede! The wolf thought aww easy prey. Xin was slowly falling behind as his craft continued to release more smoke. Lucky for him and the other two anxious riders, the ET went after the Ox who were easier prey.
