we look like lightning

It was strange, to say the least, to be engaged in a hunt with someone he had yet to properly face, but Kai was never one to say no to new experiences. Hunting was something he was almost always willing to participate in with another. He finally saw the stranger as his own pace slowed, as their prey decided to make an escape up the mountainside - but Elias didn't appreciate her attempt to flee, and went bounding up the cliff side to cut off her escape plan. His ascent sent rocks spraying down the cliff, and Kai braced himself for any impact, though was relieved when none came.

Determined now, he carefully moved behind her, the two of them giving her little room to escape. Kai had little time to scope out Elias, his attention zeroing in carefully on their target, that low rumble booming from deep within his chest yet again. As soon as she slowed, Elias lunged toward her and Kai followed suit, his body moving from instinct as much as planned action. The kill was not a terribly difficult one to secure - catching up with the goat and cutting off any possible escape routes had been the tricky part of the hunt - but he stood ready to strike if somehow she managed to live through the powerful blow issued by the stranger.

Of course, she did not, and just moments later their kill had collapsed lifelessly. The scent of blood grew strong, earning a pleased growl from Kai's stomach. He'd pause, waiting for Elias to take his fill if he so chose, since he had taken her down after all - but he declared quickly that he only wanted her hide. Hm. Interesting. He couldn't help but appreciate the use of it, though.. most wolves rarely used all of a kill, himself included, and he appreciated when use was made of all parts of a creature. He'd heard tales of his family's reverence of reindeer and how nothing would go to waste - even their antlers would be salvaged and used, though he wasn't quite sure how. "The hide is all yours," Kai agreed eagerly, flashing the stanger a grin.

His mood was light, despite the way the rain had started to pelt the mountainside. He leaned to tear into the goat's pelt, working around the wound Elias had created lest he ruin the pelt that he clearly wanted for some purpose. He gulped down a hearty bite, licking blood from his lips as he narrowed his eyes against the rain and peered across the kill at Elias. "Your help is appreciated just the same, Elias Praetor of Ruina." His posture told of power - perhaps he led this pack, or had earned a high rank within it? Kai wasn't sure, but he had an inkling that this Elias was no lowly pack member.

Either way, his thoughts were pulled off course at mention of his father. His grin grew, pride shining in his silver eyes. He resembled his father, he knew that definitively - the Jarvela, apparently, all bore a rather strong likeness to one another. "Aki is my father. Have you met him before?" Admittedly, the thought that he might have returned to these lands sent a flutter of excitement through Kai's chest, though he knew better than to be too optimistic about such a possibility.
