Leif and Fred and see several of those bird like creatures divebombing people in the street. Both of them also hear the sound of a trash can being knocked over in the alleyway next to them. Along with a low growl. Something that may jump out to Savaak is while people start running toward her direction in panic. there is one man frantically running toward the commotion.

As Fred peeks into the alleyway she can hear that the growls are accompanied by the ripping and tearing of flesh as she sees this creature feasting on the remains of what looked to be a man.

The air seemed to ripple violently as it screeched causing immense pain to everyone! It feels like your eardrums are about to rupture! The woman rolls around and shrieks on the ground he hands frantically moving to the clawmarks in her shoulders as her body convulses in agony. Fred is able to escape notice of the feasting creature when the screeching starts! Savaak dodges the falling creature but the shifting from the corner of her eyes tells her that it is getting up. When the screeching starts the man she is following cries out in pain and shudders, his hands going to his ears as he continues forward! Aaron is able to knock another one out of the sky, but his words are drowned out by the inhuman and agonizing screeches of the creature!
