The Auction

Achelois was beyond confused. She had just beat a magmasaur in a fight, had a microraptor on her head, had a horrible burn on her tail, and was about to storm an auction with the strangest group of creatures. There was carnos, a young spino, raptors, terror birds, and all sorts of creatures. None of them were fighting though. In fact, they were organizing the group, the young, smaller, weaker creatures were in the middle while the larger, stronger creatures were on the outside of the group. Suddenly there was the sound of something ramming into a door then a loud crash. The group broke into a run, majority of them ran into the woods, leaving the beautiful black and blue spino, a crimson velonasaur, a pale orange allo, who she knew was Asclepius, and stone grey carno.

"Asclepius!" She shouted, running towards the allo.

"Hey, I'm still here, don't go dropping me," Eris said, grabbing one of Achelois's frills.

"Sorry to brake up your reunion, but we need to move, Eris, do you still have the keys?" Asked the velonasaur.

"Yes I do, just give me a second," Eris said, jumping off Asclepius's head and jumped into one of the bags. She shifted everything around until one bag was full and the other was mostly bandages. "OK, let's go then," she shouted. They all ran towards a smaller stadium that they could hear the chirping of humans from.

"When we get there focus on the guards, the others won't do much, once they're dealt with I'll unlock the cages," Eris stated, she jumped out of Achelois's bag, who took flight over the stadium, blasting a group of guards with poison before swooping down over the stadium, grabbing another with her talons. The human chirped and flailed while she flew up and dropped it, only hearing a thump from the collision with the ground. Asclepius and the others were fighting guards on the ground while Achelois's attack continued, dropping, blasting, and even giving them to the shackled creatures, who were almost as brutal as the magmasaur. Once it looked like there wasn't anymore guards, she landed, looking at the prisoners as Eris approached them. There were multiple types of creatures, all held the same way. They each had a shackle on their neck, and their legs, keeping them from pulling any kind of stunt. All of a sudden, she heard a loud click and watched in horror as a human aimed a contraption at her, then another click as the projectile flew straight at her.
