They tried seducing your friend, while your looking for a pangolin that you thought you saw and wanna take a picture of, so they could eat him. They dont often get hungry but when they do they usually look for fruit or a male. After finding out that none of the tricks they have will work they retreat. You had gotten back just in time to get affected by a spell they tried using and soon after they leave you start following because of the spell. You probably would have followed anyway. This is a bit of a self insert...like almost all my other fics-
