We are warriors

Naiche nodded and moving to move at an even pace with the other wolf. He caught a scent that he recognized but had never actually seen before. It was a scent he had learned from his family to avoid and thus they had never gotten close enough for him to see in his earlier part of life. The scent was something he clearly now recognized as a cat to give himself some idea of what to expect but still plenty of questions.
“Tiger? I smelled them a few times before I came here but I’ve never seen one.” It was a mixture both explained curiosity and need for insight. Naiche’s focus on the direction of the scent. “Smell is getting stronger.” It was as if speaking that summoned it into life. Naiche looked farther to the west and spotted the brazen cat prowling to where it would soon cross into their land. Naiche’s lips pulled back so teeth and gums were visible. So much for needing to make Duncan to tell him about one, he'd just learn firsthand.
“No you don’t…” Looking to Duncan, “I’m going to get around so I’ll be at his opposite side. Give me a minute to get in place.” Naiche said that without waiting to see if Dunkan had his own plan or would keep with that. Time was a precious thing. Naiche ran farther into their own territory for a moment to gain some distance and not upset the tiger until he was in position directly opposite where he had left Dunkan. Another fight to chase something off instead of killing, but he bet it would be a great fight.
