Zach looked around for Elliot. He was at the start of the hike, twelve campers looking up at him expectantly, and there was no Elliot to be seen. "Alright guys. Looks like it's just me." Luckily, these were some of the older campers, so he could trust them to behave a bit more. "Stick close by and holler if you need me." He motioned for the group to follow him as he set off down the trail. There should have been another counselor at the rear making sure all the campers were accounted for, but he guess he just had to make do. "Thomas." He picked out a wolf who was the oldest and seemed to be a bit less wild than the others. "You're in the rear, make sure no one falls behind." The wolf smiled to be given a grownup duty, even saluting Zach. Where was that damn Elliot.
-------------------------------
Trees. No one ever bothered looking up trees, and Elliot was a good climber. He hung out in one of the trees near the pool, laying on a thick branch, watching the kids swim. Actually he was watching the two counselors watching the kids swim. The big sexy tiger and his hot raccoon boyfriend were on duty. And the chance to see the two hotties in nothing but their bathing suits was too much to pass up. Two bad they seemed so into each other, there was little chance for Elliot to get a threesome there.
Zach would notice him missing and probably report him to Soren, but Elliot didn't care. He wasn't here for the campers. The tiger was showing off swimming techniques now to the youngsters and Elliot drooled watching the striped feline surge through the water. Suddenly a wind blew through a shook Elliot's branch, making him grip the tree.
"Ooo.. that was close. Maybe I shouldn't.." The wind blew again and there was a crack. The branch broke and Elliot went tumbling to the ground. Luckily cat's land on their feet. Unluckily he made it to the ground before the branch, which conked him square on the head right after he landed and knocked him out cold. The world seemed to spin for a moment before blackness took him, something feeling off about his body all of the sudden.
