the one that got away

His claws clicked against the colored stone as he ran, breaths coming fast as he chased his prey. Today, it was a rabbit, and a fast one at that. He'd been chasing it for a good part of the morning, actually. He'd chase it until he lost track of it, and then he'd track it down again and start the cycle over. At this point, it was more of a game than anything. But of course he was still trying to catch it and earn himself a meal.

So Alarik chased the rabbit over the rocks, trying to move with the same agility as it leapt from rock to rock. But his eyes were too focused on the rabbit, and not so much on the surroundings. So when the rabbit jumped between two slabs of rock, Alarik followed close behind and ran right into the stone. He saw stars for a second and grumbled as he stepped back, slowly shaking his head. His nose was throbbing, and his pride had taken some damage too. Good think no one had seen that little fiasco.
