Silent hunter

Lament’s teeth pierced the cat’s pelt and Hikaru was spared his face getting claws by the dangerous beast. He pivoted and returned his attention to offense as she screamed in pain. Blood flowed and before she could turn on Lament Hikaru was there. Surprised and injured the tiger was quickly convinced she didn’t wish to tango anymore. Hika snapped his jaws as the tigress struggled free of Lament’s grasp. Her twisting and turning motions tearing her pelt but freeing her from death’s embrace.

Hikaru went to chase her, to make sure she wasn’t welcome anywhere near the Ashen Empire. He barked, he growled, he bit at her heels to prove his point. Then she was gone, as though they’d never even been faced with such a deadly beast. Hika turned back to Lament, hoping he was unscathed.
