One's labor

Where Azure lacked age and experience he made up for in size, already he'd been on a few large animal hunts and so the coyote's were an easier target in comparison. His paws came down hard and fast upon it's cheek, slamming it into the ground and bringing a pained yelp from the coyote. He raked his claws down the side of it's face and neck, tearing through the skin easily and spurting blood out onto his chest. Azure disliked these battles with more than one opponent, he liked to savor the kill and that was not a smart move when his victim's ally's could jump in at any moment. He moved quickly while the coyote bled out, sinking his elongated fangs into it's soft throat to finish it off.

Duncan had killed a second and was working on his third, so Azure moved to intercept the fourth before it could gang up on his companion. He grabbed it by the lower rear leg, crushing his jaws down upon the bone and feeling it crunch beneath his teeth. It howled in pain and the sound only fueled the boy further, he yanked hard on the injured limb pulling the coyote off balance and closer to him. Before it could recover, he released the limb and lifted his upper body to sink his claws into the coyote's back along it's spine. For a moment he hesitated, realizing that the pelt may be damaged beyond compare if he continued his assault there. The hesitation cost him and the coyote wheeled around, biting down on Azure's shoulder. The heir snarled, angling his head to grab for the back of the coyote's neck and bit down hard until it was dead.

He puffed a breath of exasperation, turning to watch Duncan with his last opponent. He'd not offer true help to the boy - after all, Duncan was older than he was an was a warrior in training. He could handle it, Azure was sure. He sat, lifting a paw to hold upon his shoulder wound while he waited.
