That vehicle would then slow down as it comes into sight. Seems to be rather lightweight, and kind of a cross between a pickup truck and a Jeep...
It comes to a stop nearby.

Veraneathe squats down, hiding in the foliage..

... except his entire mane, ears, armored back, and puffy tail can all still very clearly be seen from the bush.

The person stops, and looks back at the vehicle, before then continuing to approach more slowly than before.

Eventually, noticing that the person is still approaching, Veraneathe slowly raises himself from the bush, pushing more onto his hind legs, sitting at about 8 and a half feet tall with his weight on his hind legs.

He doesn't change his facial expression at all, simply looking down at the person with both curiosity and indifference.
 
The person freezes, shaking as they aim their rifle at Verneathe.
Two others at the vehicle jump out and take aim.
"....H-H-Hello?"

He would get up, padding a bit closer before leaning down, leveling his head with them.

"Hello0o.."

His voice is deep and rumbling, trailing a bit almost involuntarily and ending in a sort of growling sound. It's hard to tell if he simply was mimicking what he heard or truly speaking on his own.
 
The person just... faints.
Which definitely is taken to be an attack by the ones up at the vehicle, who then immediately open fire on Verneathe.

And he would snarl in surprise, recoiling a bit and dashing to the side, the bullets landing firmly in his forelegs and torso before he begins to try to evade.

He would then swerve back, bucking onto his hind legs and slamming both of his hands into the ground, causing a large, spiked ripple of earth to surge towards the the vehicle and the troops surrounding it. (8)

The troops are by no means expecting such a thing, the eaeth ripples immediately flipping the vehicle over, the troops jumpinf to the side to avoid it, but now stuck prone and open to attack.

Veraneathe would place a palm to the earth and yank up, now holding onto a small boulder ripped from the ground. He'd lob it towards the vehicle and then begin sprinting away from the vehicle, deeper into the woods. He doesn't pay attention to any fire that might still come his way during this time..
 
That immediately crushes the vehicle, the soldiers continuing to fire, the one that was frozen on the ground earlier quickly talking into their radio.
Right now they're uncertain whether or not to pursue him...
 
After running a good half mile in the same direction, Veraneathe stops, panting..

He slowly looks at the bullet wounds on his arms and torso.. confused as to what they are.. he taps one with a clawed finger, bearing his teeth in pain as the wound dribbles blood.
 
Used to at least the chirping of birds at the bare minimum, Veraneathe seems particularly on edge about the complete silence..

He manages to wander into a clearing of sorts where the sky is visible.. he then looks up.. not having stopped to notice it before..

The forests back where he was from were so dense that he had never been able to see the sky in more than little patches..
