Daisy peeked out. She'd been hiding behind the human girl with the phoenix friend. "I do, too."

Daisy agrees. Where can we go?

"Oh, we can just go outside of the city. But I can't do that now... my mom would kill me. Uh, figuratively. And it's a long walk." She turns to Lilliana. "Do you want to come with... does anyone else hear that?"
Indeed, what sounds like a low growling comes from a nearby knot of trees.

Daisy squealed and flew into a bush away from the knot of trees where the noise came from, but still near the majestic phoenix.

"That growling. It's coming from over there-" she freezes before she points at the tree, silent.
A black spots prowls out, still growling. It appears to be a large, black dog- but something about it is very, very wrong. It's eyes are too focused, and they exude a malice you've never seen in an animal. It's teeth were bared, and you can see specks of red on the otherwise perfectly white canines.

Cadence's flames flared and she hissed instinctively. Why did I do that?

"Because there's a demon dog in front of us?" says Grace as the aforementioned dog creeps closer, intent clear in it's eyes.

Lilliana snapped a stick off of a tree. "Here boy. You want the stick?" She waved the stick through the air. "Go get the stick!" She threw the stick as far away as she could. "Go fetch!"

 But I didn't do it! Cadence hissed again and her flames grew even higher.

Tempting. Very tempting. But...

The devildog ignores the stick, and has now broken into a walk, anticipation in it's eyes.
"Uh, Candence, can you torch that thing?"

I think so. Cadence concentrated and her flames shot up. I can't make it go anywhere. So it'll only help if it attacks me. Wait. Get behind me!

Lilliana decided to climb up a tree that was behind Cadence instead.

Grace does so directly before the dog lunges at Candence, aiming for her wing, teeth bared and shining.

Cadence lit up like someone had just dumped gasoline on her. She shrieked in anger and battered the dog with her wing.

It snarls backwards and begins to circle, fur on it's face singed.

Cadence kept herself between the dog and Grace, hissing continuously.

It half barks, half growls creating a horrible sound that grates at the ears. Suddenly, it leaps up and over Candence and towards Grace, who shrieks, tumbling backwards.

Cadence shrieked and leapt at the dog. Grace! Are you okay?

Grace is too busy to reply as she falls to the ground and starts to kick at the hellhound, who ignores her attacks and bites here shoe. Only it's canines punctures the fabric, but they go in deep enough to break skin. Little red drops of blood form, causing Grace to yelp in pain and the dog to energize and tears more frantically at the shoe, before Candence leaps onto it's back, making the dog let go of the foot and writhe in pain and anger, throwing Candence off and leaping for her throat.

You're fine!

Cadence screeched and ducked her chin, then snapped at the dog's nose. Leave us alone!!!

The dog snarls as you cut open it's nose with your sharp beak, but no blood comes out, just a thick billowy smoke. You begin to smell a sulfuric smell as it's fur begins to fully catch alight from your flames

Meanwhile, Grace is looking for a weapon, before noticing a large rock laying on the ground...

Oh, no. The phoenix is in trouble. 

Despite her every instinct to leave them to die, Daisy flew up the dog's nose.

"Should I do something?" Jinn asked. "Make the dog a cute little puppy or something?"
