Jaafan turned toward the new beast slowly and spoke softly in a calm tone, ”Everyone back away, slowly, do not turn your back on it, or run. Just walk backward in to the forrest calmly.” he said as he moved to position himself between the creature and the escapees who were hopefully listening to his instructions.
He hoped that the fact the avian creature had not immediately attacked was a good sign that it simply wanted them to leave as opposed to it wanting to eat them. If they were lucky it would simply let them go without incident.
”And someone grab the unconscious fellow please.” he added.

As soon as the humans had retreated a little the creatures long tooth studded jaws snapped out and picked up the thing that Jaafan had killed then swallowed it with one thrown-back head toss....its long beak-like jaw swept back and forth across the area, pulling in air through its large nostrils with noisy snorts....it fixed Jaafan with a look and looking down he noted he was covered with the centipede-creatures blood. After a few seconds of tense standoff it apparently made a decision and headed off quickly in the direction Urukas foe had fled....
