Playing With The Big Boys
Priscilla shifted off to the opposite side Osiris had gone. If they were going to be successful in this hunt they’d need to work together… something the girl wasn’t too familiar with doing when it came to hunting. But she was going to give it her all… and hopefully they would be rewarded with some fresh meat for their efforts.
The female lowered her body down to the earth and bent her legs at the joints to prepare for the charge. Once Osiris was on the move she too shot off towards the weaker deer. She could see almost immediately why he had picked it -- a bad leg and a limp made it an easy target. She moved on the inside area of the deer, mindful of the rest of the prey so she wouldn’t get kicked or gored by an angry buck in retaliation.
Her slower speed had her lagging behind a bit, though Osiris was good at getting the deer to turn and face her. The female lowered her head a bit, second guessing herself for a moment before she let instinct take over at the last moment.
In a flash it was over. Priscilla had lunged for the throat of the beast, jaws clamping down on it’s jugular before silencing it’s life forever. It fell to the earth and Prsicilla backed up and looked upon it with surprised eyes. “I… did it?” She questioned, almost unable to believe she had helped bring the beast down. |
