Chapter 16: Within his palm
Although Sarah is pissed at the fact that humans have came all the way to the middle area to hunt her specifically as they know that they are here for a beast which she assumes must be her as this is her territory and humans rarely hunt any of the other carniverous animals here, maybe the tigers as they can use their bodies for medicine and food but the others are unusable for that. She is still careful as humans never do something they are not confident in which means the humans hunting her should hold significant strength.
Silently walking through the waterfall towards the opposite area to where she heard the voices where there was a lot of trees and bushes which she could use as cover to stealthily stalk them to attack them when they are alone.

*Rustle* (x6)
Watching the group as they try and sneak from the trees and bushes however they are appalling at sneaking as they have never done this sort of thing before Sarah gets irritated at the fact that they sent teens after her and from the looks of it she could kill them in near enough one hit, of course that depends what type of combatant they are. Making her way around them to get to the back of the group she stalks them as they make there way closer to the lake confused that a beast could actually pick such a beautiful spot as this as their den.
"It seems this beast has some intellect on par with a humans, whether it is on par with an adults is unknown proceed with caution" The person she assumed to be the groups leader told his teammates which surprised her as he deduced she had intellect from the fact that she chose a beautiful place to live.
The area was like its own paradise within the forest as it is surrounded by trees that are one hundred to two hundred foot high and then there is the lush greenery that encompasses the ground showing the vitality of the area as the grass is half a foot high and the bushes grow to be at least four foot high and six foot in diameter and then there is the crystal clear lake that is twenty foot wide and ten foot deep towards the middle and the depth becomes less the closer to the edge you are woth the edges just barely being half a foot deep. Of course you can't forget the mini waterfall created by a new river flowing from the core area that covers up a cave behind it which is used as Sarah's resting place.
Continuing to stalk them from behind she realises that they are from different places as the one in the middle seems to dislike the group leader, something about the one in the middle not being able to handle the truth or something. From the stalking she has managed to learn all of their names and slightly figured out the dynamic balance of power between them. Reed, the stone faced one, is with Michael who she guessed was some sort of healer since he has Reed there to protect him. The two people at the front are Steven and Charles. Frederick, the group leader who is at the back with a female called Ashley, seems to be from a scientific background that colludes that although there are people who can become gods the world was never created by one as it happened naturally whilst Michael, the middle one, seems to come from some sort of church that like her homeworld believes that the world was created by a god - their god. Sarah found the situation so much alike to her previous world that she wonders if she is the only one from her world to come her to which Linda responds.
"No you are not the only one from your world to come here and people from your world are not the only people to come here either. Goodluck on the path ahead young one"
The last part of the sentence changed voices from Linda to a slighlty husky male voice that exuded grace yet a slight dominance to it wishing her luck on her path forward. She doesn't know why but she found the voice similar even though she had never heard a voice like that in this life or her last. Intrigued she puts it to the back of her head focusing on her current goal. Although she knew that Frederick was intelligent from his earlier deduction she didn't expect he was so infuriating as they haven't moved a single step from the last bush and are just waiting there staring at the lake. Guessing that they are just waiting for her to show up to drink from the lake she snickers at them in her head for not realising tat their plan was doomed the moment they made a sound within her territory as she only hunts within the radius of her cave that she can hear from.
~Two hours later~
"GOD DAMMIT. AT LEAST HAVE SOMEONE WHO NEEDS TO GO TO THE TOILET!!!" Screaming in her head for them to move or at least seperate a bit so she could at least take advantage of their lapse in concentration but that damn Frederick wasn't letting them loosen up or seperate as he said that they can't relax yet as they haven't finished waht they came for. As the time passes she can see that although Frederick is adamant on them keeping their vigilance up it isn't working the longer she waits which settles her anger down a bit.
~Twenty minutes later~
*SIgh*
"Fine, go do whatever you need to. I'll be here watching the lake." Frederick whispered in response as they kept complaining to him that they needed to move as their muscles were cramping and Michael had to go to the toilet, of course Reed would be accompanying him as you don't know what to expect in a forest of beasts.
Excited that they were finally moving about on their own, relatively alone at least as some had walked off in pairs. Watching Frederick for a bit longer she decides to head after Michael and Reed as getting rid of the healer would be better as that means if she injures the others then there is no one who can heal them back to their prime wasting her time fighting. Sneaking away taking her gaze off of Frederick she didn't notice the sneer on his face as she went to Michael and Reed's spot. Not knowing she had just danced within his palm as his skill Sharpshooter enhances his sight how couldn't her notice her when although she reduced her sound she couldn't disappear. Fredericks plan was that if she went to anyone elses direction he would shout that she was here but if she went for Michael he would leave it as he had been opposing his decisions since the beginning although they had decided he would be the leader, Michael also didn't realise that although he can hide it from others he can't hide it from Frederick that under his nice persona is just a poisonous snake waiting to bite him when the chance comes. Deciding not to wait for the chance he decided to use a borrowed blade - claw - to get the job done.
Stealthily following Michael and Reed she follows them as they keep walking through the trees and bushes until they are no longer visible to anyone else.
"Alright, you wait over here while i'm doing my business. Just watch the surroundings for me." Telling Reed what he is to do he goes behind another tree that is ten feet away from where Reed is now. Stealthily making her way around going unnoticed by Reed she finds Michael just as he was about to pull out his dick to do his business he didn't notice the wolf coming up behind him as he was relieving himself.
*Puchi*
Stabbing her pinky claw through the connecting spot of his spine and neck paralyzing him from the neck and below. Unable to even scream he falls over and stares in despair as a very striking and beautiful wolf beast stares at him with wrathful eyes as if to blame him for his own death. Despairing as he watched as the Sarah brought her jaws closer and closer to his neck.
*Crunch*
Dulling his eyes start becoming lifeless as he bled out from his throat. Making sure that Reed hadn't heard anything Sarah starts eating Michaels cold lifeless corpse finding a weird satisfaction as she dug into him. Sarah starts becoming worried as the more time she spends detached from society the more she becomes an actual beast. She also made a small humurous joke that made her chuckle in her mind.
"I thought that was his pinky for a second. No wonder he didn't want Reed nearby. Size complexes will still be a thing even in another world."
