On the Warpath (Bear Hunt)

Midnight kept quiet as the others planned this was it, win or lose after this there would be no turning back. Gargoyles plan was sound trapping the bear was the safest option, but a niggling fear ran in her mind if he wasn't in there they risked trapping themselves up the side of a mountain. She opened her mouth to speak but the others had already set off moving up the hill side with a deep sigh she started to move forward when Odin's voice got her attention she hesitated a moment as he started up the rocky slope splitting the group was a risk, if one was attacked the other would be to far off to offer instant assistance. This in mind she started after Odin, and though she did not know what help she could be, well, no wolf should be near this bear alone.

She moved with caution testing each foot hold until she reached the males position her tail was curled close to her body but she forced her mind to ignore the fear and focus on the rocks. She was just drawing level with Odin when the unmistakable tumble of rocks sounded in her ears and a familiar roar filled the air her gaze speed up one, two, where was awaken she hardly knew the wolf but he was a pack member and he was gone! she saw the hole in the rocks, and terror filled her heart, this was not the plan.

She bounded forward caution and silence forgotten, rocks tumbled in her wake as she ascended the slope, the gap looked to small for the colossal form of Gargoyle but maybe... she slipped under Gargoyles nose and rushed towards the gap. She leapt without thinking, down into the dark.

She landed in the cave and for a moment she was blind but she could still hear and smell the bear. It was roaring making its position clear and she shuffled away from it as quickly as she could. but even as she moved her eyes where adjusting and now in the inky light she could see that she had landed behind the bear, the thing of nightmare, and Awaken was beyond it, clearly the first attack had already occurred the bear was bleeding and the wolf looked worse for wear.

Midnight snarled she had promised her self that no one would get hurt and now... she was not thinking as she threw herself forward landing on the bears back she dug in her teeth in just above its spine midway up its back, claws tearing at its sides she wanted to distract it to get it away from her pack mate she did not think beyond that, the bear had not heard the other wolf enter to focused on the prey in front of him, and so the pain came as a surprise he lunged and thrashed trying to dislodge the creature and midnight clung for dear life to its back.

Only now that it was done did she think that this was not her smartest move but it was to late and so she clung the blood flowing from her jaws
