Hearing faint screams, a blue tigress prowls closer to investigate...

"Panda-kun, are you all right?  I seem to hear screaming coming from your 
pen?"  Saf looks at the panda quizzically.

Looking around the pen, she spots a rifle.

"When did you decide to take up riflery?"

A wraith-like shadow rises from the ground, solidifying itself into a 
slightly-overweight, bespectacled man.

"Riflery is a nasty habbit, panda-kun" pronounces the newcomer.  "Better 
to use one's innate abilities to defend oneself".  The Wraith continues 
to talk while pacing up and down the area, oblivious to the fact it is 
walking through bamboo shoots.  "Guns do not terminate people, bullets 
do.  And remember, society's to blame."

With this final admonition, the Wraith gives a deep bow to the completely 
befuddled panda and tigress before slowly sinking into the ground.
