Well, the answer here seemed obvious. After a quick glance around the area, Danny makes his way towards the crashing noises.

[nutkrusher]

Cassie bends over to examine the corpses. She's not a coroner, but she's trained enough in simple field treatments (and has seen enough dead bodies) to piece together what's up.

"I'm no animal expert. But I'm gonna guess these wounds didn't happen in the crash."

She winces and pulls her hand away as it pricks one of the feathers.

"Gonna throw a wild guess out there and say this was some kinda bird monster. A huge one, with talons."

[Masumi, meanwhile, is focused on the tracks, checking what direction they go in. There are signs of something being dragged, though what that thing was she can’t say yet. A survivor maybe?]

Looks like someone was in the area before us. I think something or someone was being dragged around, since they’re distorted and unclear.

As Danny walked through the ship he would hear more crashing and then the sound of something coming towards him before a creature jumped at him.

It does seem to be an attack, though that might not be obvious straight away. Instead the creature grabs anything it can, clothing, a hat, a bag, trying to steal it and leap away.

[schrodingersghost]

Danny had certain reflexes when it came to something jumping out at him and grabbing at him. Without thinking he forms a ball of ectoplasmic energy in his hands.... which immediately destabilizes and explodes, throwing him back to the floor.

[tactlesstantei]

[Masumi's just walking over to where Danny is when she hears the noises from the craft, prompting an alarmed glance up.]

Everything okay in there, Danny? [She'd rush in there to look, if it weren't for the red haze over the ship.]

[nutkrusher]

Cassie's rifle is out, though not yet aimed, as she approaches behind Masumi. She has no illusions about this wreck being a safe place for anybody.

[voidtreckernpcs]

There's a high pinched screech as Danny's ectoplasm explodes and more skittering footsteps.

For a moment there is quiet and then Danny will feel something poke him again, more chittering.

[schrodingersghost]

Danny groans and levers himself back up.

"I'm okay!" he calls out.

And then he very, very slowly and carefully gathers some ectoplasm in his hand. Just enough to give some light.

"Okay, who's poking me?"

[nutkrusher]

Cassie isn't taking any chances, though. She takes off from the ground, hovering as steadily as she can manage and as high as she can manage (not very, in either case) looking to get a good angle if anything pops out she has to shoot.

[tactlesstantei]

[Masumi, meanwhile, heads as close to the red mist as she feels comfortable getting, drawing her sword just in case something comes out. She's honestly not sure what to expect after that noise earlier, but she sure isn't taking Danny's word for it that things are fine in there.]

[voidtreckernpcs]

There's a small chittering before something frops to Danny's head, ruffling his hair with a rumbling laugh. It peers down at him and with the ectoplasm he would see the blue tint of fur.

There's a skittering near where Masumi and Cassie are also, Cassie will feel something brush against her foot and something dives at Masumi, to grab anything that is loose.

[schrodingersghost]

Danny blinks.

"...Huh. You don't seem very dangerous."

Cautiously, he reaches out with his free hand to touch it.

[nutkrusher]

Cassie jumps back the moment she feels the whatever-it-is brush against her leg. Her rifle is pointed down in the direction of where it came from.

But she's not panicking, and she's certainly not opening fire until she knows she's in danger.
