Kinnai was filled with regret as he fought the mid tire sliver rank wild beast that had attacked his small male and was entangling from going to save him.
Kinnai could only think about how this was all his fault. He had relaxed his vigilance since he had had no powerful opponent come into his territory in a long time and had stopped petroling the forest to look. He had gotten too proud and it was going to cost him his small male.
Kinnai attacked the wild beast in a frenzy. The beast which was weaker than him could only be throne apart by the angry bear. It's tail pulled off and used as a bat to beat it to a bloody mess.
Kinnai was an anomaly of his tomic clan, born with a totem order bloodline. He was now a high tier silver rank who is almost gold.
This wild beast was not his opponent, but the moments he wasted on killing it was enough for the river to take Mika away.
The angry and distraught bear let out a roar that resounded through the forest and brought fear to all the creatures who heard it, causing them to tremble as they lay on the ground in fear.
With red eyes and shaken heart the large black bear with purple markings followed the river's path, looking into the water in search of his Mika.
' He can't die. He'll be alright. He's the beast god's son who fell from the sky. The water can't kill him. '
Kinnai could do this to keep himself from going mad as he frantically run and searched.

Kivi was not allowed by the river because of the monster fish that lived in it and also the speed at which the river run but most importantly because she was a precious female.
Females were fewer and not as powerful as the males so they had to be protected by the males of the tribe. Her ama had always told her that and was angry anytime she went out alone for fear a male would forcibly claim her or maybe be kidnapped by the ferals.
Kivi had never seen a feral and didn't believe her mother, also she was not of age and didn't think any male would claim her yet. So here she was at the place she was not supposed to be, playing away.
She had just made a mound of mud when she saw it floating downriver. It looked like a person. It was floating near enough to the bank for her see when it got close.
It clothened in fine fur and looked like a female's corpse.
Kivi knew she shouldn't but still went into the river and pulled the 'corpse' onto the bank when it got to a shallow part of the river she had followed it to.
Kivi in her excitement to get the things on the ' corpse ' she had found almost got swept away but was lucky to find her footing in time.
The young female worked hard and finally was able to move it far enough from the bank so the monster fish do not come and drag it back into the water to eat.
As Kivi was trying to take of the fur from the 'corpse' and wondering why the water monsters had not eaten it, the 'corpse' moved.
The young female froze in fear. She thought she was seeing things and watched until it moved again. She took to her heels and run all the way back to her mother's tent.
Kivi's act of running and screaming all the way to her ama's arms drew the attention of the clansmen.
They all came to tent to ask what was going on.
Rokk, Kivi's ama could only try and claim her daughter.
But the only thing they could get out of her mouth was river and it's alive.
Tuul took one look at his histerical sister and turned towards the river with some of the males behind him to see what it was that scared his sister.
The males of the tiger tomic clan searched along the banks of the river until one of the males found the body.
Tuul and the others surrounded the it and one of the older males checked to see if 'she' was truly alive.
" It is not a corpse. She is still alive,just unconscious and heavily wounded. Take her to see the priest. "
The man pointed at a strong male who shifted into a big tiger and had the unconscious female placed on his back.
Tuul watched the beautiful female be taken away on the back of another and cursed at his himself for not volunteering to carry her .
This female was found by his sister, she should and would become his.
