Posey turns to the next creature with foam at the edge of her mouth and hacks into it furiously like a rabid wolf

The original creature, though running low on legs and clearly not far from destruction, has a couple more to spare.
It swipes at Posey
[1d20+4 = (17+4) = 21]
[1d6+2 = (5+2) = 7]
[1d20+4 = (16+4) = 20]
And it pecks at Posey
[1d20+4 = (14+4) = 18]
[2d6+2 = (3+2) = 5]
Posey stabs into the creature's lower barrel. No blood comes out, probably only because it has none to bleed.

Between Posey and the GRU, the monsters at least seem to be occupied. But the possibility of another appearing is higher than zero.
Mala:
"Should I... stay in the rearguard, or scout ahead?"

Drawing two more arrows, Kira nocks and looses them at the second creature's bird-like face.

[1d8+3 = (3+3) = 6]
[1d20+5 = (7+5) = 12]

Silver's now in range as well, and he charges the creature that's been brought to the ground with his greatsword.

I was referring to the 2, not the 5. We're on the same page.
This is all piercing damage, right?
Posey is starting to look fucked up. She looks like a cube of Swiss cheese. Were it not for the defensive magic infused into her bones, she would be long destroyed. Her legs rattle beneath her, sinews hanging by a thread. Her emergency fast healing activates, bringing her up to 10 HP as her wounds slowly close, but she's still looking like Swiss cheese.
"...B-B-BUCK...!" she gags, as she finally sees the limit to her strength.
Posey takes a withdraw action, now fighting defensively.
She skitters 60 ft away from the monster, provoking no attacks of opportunity.

One arrow simply slides off and fails to launch. The second seems to barely miss, with how now sound is heard, but it may have glanced against the side of its barrel
>>192856
Silver charges at the first creature, and slices its barrel right in two. In some ways, it's like cutting into bread. The entity disintegrates in front of Silver, turning into a black ash that evaporates in the span of only a few seconds. The creature's long beak opens slightly, though it's too dark to look inside. It seems like it will make a dying gasp, but it makes no sound at all as it fades away.
The second creature, however, pecks at Silver
[1d20+4 = (8+4) = 12]
[2d6+2 = (7+2) = 9]
And stabs at him

Swipes are blunt, any kind of stab or peck is piercing
Withdrawing is rather easy, with Silver coming in to finish off the one and draw the attention of the other.
Behind Posey, Cavaliere is organizing a withdraw of the caravan of creatures

In the round that the creature isn't focused on her, Posey puts a hoof to her chest and attempts to heal herself with her Charnel Touch.

Cavaliere is able to essentially backtrack, going through the portions of the village that have already been searched. Though he walks away from the source of the light, it is still illuminated by that dim, green light.
Rounding the edge of the village, Cavaliere may want to head in the direction of the black sand beach
>>192859
For what it's worth, nopony is looking at Posey, and she has relative quiet as she does so. "Relative," because she can still hear the high pitched "tinging" of a submachine gun in the background

Cavaliere heads closer to the beach but avoids walking on it, trying to maintain stealth. While he looks for any enemies nearby, can he see any signs of a lone pony?

Power Attack: One of the stabs hits home, dealing only glancing damage to an unarmored part of him but still hurting. Gritting his teeth, he prepares a powerful swing to try to take this Abomination down, his sword carving a thick path through the air.
[1d20+6 = (9+6) = 15]
[2d6+20 = (7+20) = 27]
Kira curses to herself, and picks up the arrow from the ground as well as drawing another one. "Come on, Kira, hit this thing!"
She looses them right at where the creature's eyes would be.

He doesn't think he sees one, though he can't say for sure. Waves crash against the shore, and cavaliere can feel the smaller stones move under his claws.
There is more than one smaller rowboat on the shore, or in one case, on the surf, each a number of feet from the other. They are visible against the black sand and pebbles because of their faded, white paint over planks of wood.
>>192864
Silver's attack has quite a bit of power. Maybe a bit too much power. Silver's sword goes upwards, and while it makes contact with the creature's hide, it does so at an angle, until it glances and deflects off of the thick hide.
It, however, attacks back:
With a peck
[1d20+4 = (10+4) = 14]
[2d6+2 = (3+2) = 5]
A swipe
[1d20+4 = (19+4) = 23]

And a stab

Kira shoots her arrow, and it lands squarely in the barrel of the aberration. It hisses. The hide around the wound becomes darker. Maybe it can bleed. Between the arrow and Posey's earlier hits, it's clearly not far from oblivion.

The peck is ineffective at piercing through his flak jacket, but the swipe and stab find purchase against his exposed body. He's definitely regretting putting so much power into that attack with the hurt the Abomination just put into him. Bringing his sword back around, he tries a couple of normal swings to just finish this thing off and remove it from this plane of existence.

Silver gets a firm hit against its barrel, then a second against its neck. He didn't need that much. The creature makes a silent "skree" as he slices into it, exposing a dark inside, and watching as it slowly evaporates before him.
Kira sees it evaporate before her arrows can land, though they would have hit at awkward angles judging from where they are seen to fly.
No monsters remain in the village, though judging from the sound of gunfire, some must be nearby

Silver is definitely wounded, stabbed in the shoulder and barrel repeatedly.

Silver does what he can to ensure that he at least doesn't bleed out, and he does the same for Kira. Kira gets what she can from the local area, since it's too dangerous to try to go for the others. She looks out to where the soldiers are coming from, and points in the opposite direction for both Silver and Posey. "I think the others would have gone that way, towards the water."
Silver nods in reply. "That does make sense. Come on, we need to get moving."

Cavaliere sees the figure dart along the surf ahead of him. He's in the water, with waves passing by. He doesn't hear much splashing, but the waves drown out most sounds. The pony does not respond to Cavaliere. It's certainly an earth pony. A lighter coat color, but clothing that's a greenish color, likely taken off and tied around the waist. He looks rather small. Could almost be that Barley Corn, really. He's heading away from Cavaliere, and towards the third rowboat, which has been dislodged from the shore with the rising tide.

The pony hops ahead, moving into the water. He heads for the boat. Though he has a head start, Cavaliere starts to catch up. The pony jumps and Cavaliere loses sight of him just at the rowboat. But the open top boat... seems to be empty?

I think that Posey remained closer to the village, rather than going down to the shore. Cavaliere would also be a bit further north at the point

She needs about a minute to restore herself to beauty, but otherwise no plans.
She returns to the group and asks what passed in the past few minutes.

If chasing ghosts is an option, she would gladly participate in that.

Cavaliere looks inside to see... nothing. Several inches of seawater sloshing about in the bottom of the boat as it moves in the waves. Under a plank that constitutes a seat, a... Wait. That large protrusion, a more yellow color than the green seawater, white painted planks, and dark brown of exposed wood - that could just be a pony.
Cavaliere sees it, hiding underneath the plank, but too large to be completely covered by it, his lays on his side, is curled up in a ball, wears a green unform and khaki pants (Cavaliere could have sworn he saw a pony wearing clothing the other way around, but nevermind that). His eyes are closed, and his mouth is partly in the water. He can't drown in two inches of water, but four inches? He likely would. He is non-responsive.

Cavaliere heaves him over his shoulders and rushes through the surf to the shore as quickly as he can. His movement is much less graceful than his flight, not that he cares. Just beyond the waves, he shoves the pony onto the ground, mouth to the side, and presses on his chest to get water out, maybe stimulating breath as well. Then he checks for signs of life.
