Having someone to hunt with was absolutely thrilling, Cae had a hard time containing her excitement at first, tail swinging to and fro wildly for a bit while she listened to his words. "Likewise!" She replied without skipping a beat.
He would observe the tracks again as she watched intently, nodding as he explained what direction they were going before falling silent one more. They'd follow the trail only a short distance, soon coming upon the spot where their prey seemed to be residing, hidden out of view in the cover provided to them by the thick foliage. She had to admit it was clever for such tiny creatures to hide in this spot. Entering would alert the little animals long before she even knew what direction they were hiding, and they'd be long gone before she or her new-found hunting partner got their bearings.
Her brows furrowed a bit while she examined the situation carefully. They could not go straight into the shrubbery before them. They were both probably too large to easily slink low under it so that was not an option. That only left... above? To her left there was nothing helpful, but to her right! There! Slinking forward on quiet paws she approached the spot, motioning for Phantom to follow behind her. In front of them stood the form of a large fallen tree, the top of it seeming to have sunken a bit with decay. Wordlessly she made the jump, trying to land with minimal noise. Cae waited a bit, seeing if there would be any movement nearby that indicated sh had been heard. For now there was nothing, and she proceeded to creep forward, making room for her new companion to follow her while she gazed out at the thick greenery and tried to spot any sign of prey below them while taking a second to enjoy her crafty approach to preserving the element of surprise.
Below the two canines, the small creatures munched on the bountiful greenery around them, ears flicking about occasionally as they remained ever on alert like most small animals must do to survive. Cae could make out a few of their small forms, clustered in a group. She glanced back at Phantom, wondering where he wanted to go from here. It would be smart to try and get several of them, though how they would get more after they took down the first one or two she couldn't figure out.
