"Oy vey," Noah shook his head again, "And I thought this year's broods were troublemakers. Have you always been inclined to incur trouble without meaning to?"

Sarena chose silence, eating as she could so she could last a while until next hunt, which was still a question if it would be so fruitful like this one.

"Uh... let me see...." said Maui.
She paused to mull over the answer.
"Well..... uh.... that's a tough one. I honestly can't think of a time where trouble didn't find me in the end," said Maui.

KanKov, after having his share of meal stepped back to let others into the meat, his mind wandered and he was still thinking of the Acro from earlier.
((I'm not sure if I assume KanKov is an omega or what...=P))

(OOC: I have no clue. ^^; Sorry. )
"Anyways.... inventions aren't my only thing. I also dabble in medicine too. I mean why do you think vegitarians seem so healthy and that there's more of them? I think it has to do with some of the plants that they're eating. I think that certain plants have certain properties and can be used to heal and cure stuff. I'm not entirely sure of what does what always, but I do have a few ideas and a few plants I know for sure can be used for healing and cures. I carry a few of them in my bag, actually," said Maui.
She indicated her palm-leaf satchel she had strapped to her back.
"I always carry my best inventions and my medicines with me. You never know when stuff like that comes in handy!" said Maui.

((I'd assume anyone who's below Beta is an Omega, with the very, very bottom rank being Gamma [despite the fact that's the third letter of the Greek alphabet], such as Noah.))
Noah tilted his head, curious not so much of the idea of medicines, but the satchel. He'd never seen such a contraption. "Have you come across any viable cures in your experimenting, then?"
*
Sel wasn't left with a lot of time to ponder her packmate's silence. Two omega males were starting to nip at each other, apparently fighting over what was left of the meat at iguanadon's right rear leg. Sighing, she gave a very audible hiss and snapped in their general direction. Both males flinched and backed away.
The Beta female took note of how Kan-Kov stood off to the side. Knowing her father would need her to stay at this carcass to keep order, she decided not see what was on the loner's mind. He was probably still pondering over that Acro he'd mentioned earlier.

Sarena's uneasyness was probably detected by the other raptors, as one beta, who had probably not had any decent mealfor a long time, snapped his jaws near Sarena's neck, a clear sign for her to step aside from the red meat and organs. Sarena trotted towards the more harder meat found in the forearms, not willing to go fight a higher ranking raptor.

((alright, then thar he be =3, i don't understand the ranking so i'll just assume that for now))
KanKov continued to ignore the meat in front of him, he wasn't particularly hungry at the moment, the Acro was still foremost what was one his mind.
He looked toward the west, the sun had not yet set, it was still a good ways in the sky...they had time, how much? He could only guess.
---
Lauosa, deciding to move nearer the other mothers nipped gentlyat the little ones who were disobeying her, the chicks squeeled and trotted quickly toward the group.
She felt safer when she was gaurding her own chicks, but after the sudden closeness of the Zeburi in that manner, it would be best if she stuck near the others.

Seleysha gulped down a few more mouthfuls of bleeding flesh before stepping back. Being smaller, it didn't take a lot of food for her to function on. She sat down at the perimeter of the kill site, methodically cleaning her claws off and licking away any stray blood on her arms.
*
Kaliska put her nose to the breeze, scanning for any potential chemicals that would lead to a trail to prey. Nearly twenty feet in the air, there was always a current to assess for food.
From the west came the distinct smell of spilt blood, fresh and not yet marred by decomposition. The Acro female also smelled the distinct, musky scent she associated with 'raptors. The thought made her bear her teeth in disgust, but she had stolen kills before.
She prowled off in the direction of the scent, paying no heed to the idea that this may very well be another Acro's territory. The last four she had encountered, she hadn't left their turf without a fight.

KanKov bent down to take another bite, snipping at the raptors in his way when he stopped suddenly and shot up, standing alert. He sniffed the air, catching the scent...another Acro.
It was in the distance, quite a ways off, but he knew that smeel anywhere.
But it wasn't the one from ealier.
----
Jabali opened his mouth in a yawn, his nap had ended and his energy was restored...but not without him being considerably hungry again. He growled and looked toward where he knew the Raptors were when he caught the scent of the same tribe...they must been hunting while he rested.
Standing up, he took off staying low in the tall grass, trees and shrubs that scattered the area, he didn't want them bolting until he got there.

Having finished his gorging, Neonis retreated from the first kill, sat down beside Sel, and began to clean his own claws. Between the two dozen or so Zeburis, the best portions of both iguanadons had all but disappeared.
He looked up at seeing Kan-Kov suddenly stand at attention, looking off in the distance. "What's wrong, Kov?" the Beta male asked, using his unaffectionate nickname for the other 'raptor.

KanKov shot a small glare at the nickname, but decided a fight wasn't worth it, "There's an Acro coming an--"
He stopped...he had caught the sense of the other Acro...they were both coming...and fast,
"Two...acro's....two Acro's are coming toward us...fast."

Sarena perked up quickly and alert. But she didn't smell anything but the blood on her snout. She tried to clean it quickly as she could, as that was what she relied on the most. And with news of two acros nearby, she couldn't afford having no sense of smell.
In agitation of the news, an gamma snapped at her nearby, and she responded by batting him and snapping at him in a signal of that she was dominant over him.

Several of those subordinates that were still feeding looked up at hearing the word Acro. Many uneasy glances were passed among them, followed by anxious growling. The Alphas took notice. They exchanged a wordless look, knowing what could be attracting the two theropods from such a distance.
Neonis stood back up and strode over to where Kan-Kov stood, watching the horizon. "You're sure it's Acros?" he challenged. He didn't take jokes very well, and although he had no trust in his rival, they were still a part of the same pack.

KanKov, squinted, finding his sight still was no help nodded, "I can smell them, then one from earlier...he still smells of the 'raptors flesh he ate earlier...this other one is new....but I know the smell of an Acro anywhere."
---
Jabali moved quickly, the scent of meat and 'raptor grew stronger, he would be upon them at any time...unbeknownst to him...another Acro had a similar idea in mind.
