Dusty looked to Dark then nodded. "Ah figured as much Dark, but don't you worry, there ain't nopony other than the colt of the west, that can outshot me." Dusty pulled his gun out and cocked it, taking aim and putting a round dead in a tree as fast as he could. "My pa taught me well." Dusty smiled to himself as he remembered the times with his grandpony.
Faux flinched ducked behind Dark at the sound of the gun, "What was that?!" Faux had never seen or heard a gun before.
Dusty put his gun back on safety and slung it on his back. "Sorry Ms. Faux if ah scared you. This is my gun ah use in my shooting contests. Ah figured out here it'd be useful. Ah'd never shot somepony with it though......no matter what ah could never kill." Dusty looked down darkened.
"No your fine. I grew up with foxes in a den and I've never seen a uhh gun." Faux laughed embarrassed.
Dusty clinched. "Yeah....maybe...." Dusty trailed off his sentence, sighing as he started his walk forward, head still down. A look of distraction rest upon Dusty's face.
Calla had found the voices and her discovery made her back bristle. She quickly retreated back up the hill and to the den to fetch her pack. "It's those ponies again.." she growled. Her pack followed as she led them back to where those ponies were.
Dusty followed along a path that was obviously used by other animals. "Come everypony....ah believe ah hear the water up ahead." Dusty's ears were perking up. He knee it wasn't only water he was hearing. "Ms. Faux, Dark, could you two do me a favor and fly up for a second?"
Faux looked behind nervously but followed slowly till she was last in line. Her ears twitched every which way trying to head anything.
"No, I keep thinking somethings following us.." she scanned the trees and bushes but the sounds suddenly stopped, only the sound of horseshoes on the dirt path made the only noise.
Dusty's ear twiched more with every crunch he could muster to hear. '4 no 5 animals atleast. Ah don't know what they are, but there following us.' Dusty thought to himself, looking left and right. "Ms. Faux, Dark, plz ah'll say again, take your flight, it'll be easier to escape in case something happens."
Calla had her pack surrounding them now, she could easily reconize the orange mare but she was missing her pet fox. Calla gave the signal and each one of her pack members jumped out into the open starting with Aurora. Calls was last but first to speak, "I thought I told you not to come back.." Calla snarled towards Faux who stood her ground fearless.
