Her skin was crawling with pent up energy. Mother was lounging around talking with other adults, her older siblings had disappeared, Sakana was deep in conversation with one of the Hallows healers, and she wanted to bite something. She stomped towards the trees with a frustrated shake of her head, crystals about her neck clattering against each other as she went. Corsair was somewhere nearby, she wondered if her other siblings were too? Maybe she could sneak up on one and goad them into a fight, or maybe she'd find something else that would bite back. While she was sure there was fun to be had, she needed to work the wiggles out of her system first.

"speech"

Korona's paws thudded against the forest floor as she stomped toward the trees, her mind buzzing with restless energy. It was boring by herself! She wanted some action! A rustle.

She paused, her ears twitching as she caught a faint sound. A grin spread across her face, sharp and eager. “Perfect,” She whispered, crouching low and creeping forward with a predator’s grace. “I’m gonna get ya!” She called out, her voice a playful growl as she sprang from her hiding spot.

But instead of the sibling she thought she would find, she stumbled upon a small, prickly bush. “Ow!” She yelped, shaking off the surprise and the slight sting. Where were they, then?

THE KRAKEN

The familiar Ow! and the shaking of a bush reverberated through the trees bringing a fearless smile to the young girl's face, her little deer fangs wiggling in anticipation. There was no mistaking Kor's brash tones anywhere, and Gilda knew if she wanted to hunt a kraken, she'd have to be extra crafty.

Gilda started to pay attention to where she was placing her paws. Her ears weren't quite up all the time yet and one flopped across the top of her head while the other stood up straight. She rolled her shoulders forward to protect her neck, expecting her sister to burst from the undergrowth any moment. The anticipation was killing her. She just might shriek with laughter when her sister finally found her.

"speech"

Recovering from her pokey bush ambush was less than dignifying. The girl sneered, her amber gaze flickering around in the hopes no one saw that. Why was she always so embarrassing? Oh! But the scent was still here! There were Gilda’s to hunt.

Korona slowly straightened up from her crouch, her limbs and shoulders rolling, stamping like a cat ready to pounce. “Gillyyyy~” She called out, her voice teasing and threatening. “I swear if ya tell anyone!”

She scanned the bushes, her eyes glinting with mischief. A flash of merle. “You’ll pay!” Korona leapt forward, her paws thudding against the ground, but this time bursting through the correct bush as she attempted to tackle her sister down.

THE KRAKEN

Shrieks of laughter filled the orchard and Gilda tried to jump forward away from her sister. Thanks to the dense underbrush, she collided directly with Kor instead, copping a good poking from those quills over her shoulders. It was nothing new really, if mum's quills weren't poking her, Kor's were. "Ahh! A Kraken!" Gilda shrieked shrilly opening her jaws to snap towards one of her sister's legs playfully. It was hard to keep her breath with all this giggling, and she really should try to put some distance between them, but her heart was still thundering from the way her sister had burst through the bushes so suddenly.

Korona couldn't help but laugh along with Gilda's shrieks, the sound of playful chaos filling the grove. “Oh no, a Kraken indeed!” Kor teased, swiping her paw at Gilda with playful menace. The collision hadn't fazed Gilly, the familiar prickle of quills just another part of their rough-and-tumble it seemed! Hmpf!!

“Did ya really think you could escape me, Gilly?” The cosmic girl said, her voice dripping with mock seriousness. She bared her teeth in a mischievous grin, watching her sister's attempts to snap at her legs. If she had a tail, it would have been lashing dangerously right about now. So who the hell took it anyways?

Korona's eyes sparkled with mischief as she maneuvered herself to block Gilda's escape, rushing to push her shoulder into her sister’s chest. “You can't run from the Kraken! She declared, not committing to the push as she lunged playfully to try and pin her sister down, both of them still giggling uncontrollably.

THE KRAKEN

Korona blocked her path and the girl screamed shrilly, the noise punctuated with giggles as Kor shoved her and declared she can't run. That sounded like a challenge to Gilda, and her golden eyes flashed with delight at the challenge.

Bigger than her, Kor had the advantage when she tried to pin Gilda down, but the girl had been wrestling with Urtur and allowed herself to go with the momentum, shoulder hitting the ground a she tucked her shoulder and pulled her legs in. Once she was on her back she'd let her limbs loose, aiming for any of her sisters soft undersides that were in reach. Was it clean? No, but she was a raider, and what mattered was winning.
