It's Just A Bar Fight

Chimera wasn't opposed to getting paired up with someone else, but he would definitely display his displeasure if they ended up being a talkative bastard. Even more so if they thought of them as equal to him. No one was. Not even his half sisters new man who now called himself emperor or something. Anyone could call themselves royalty, but Chimera had the blood and living relatives to prove it. Was it really so difficult to believe that he didn't like the man though? Chi didn't like anyone. He barely liked Venom. The only reason that he was even in Ashen again was because they'd made a pact. She had made promises and he'd saved her life. If Siren didn't exist, there was no way that he'd be here. He'd made promises to assure his tiny sisters comfort. She was the only thing that he truly cared about.

Together with this stranger... the pair moved silently. For that, he was thankful. He only knew that her name was Viper because the name had been spoke aloud when they were paired. She was significantly smaller than he was which didn't really matter. Small meant fast. Hopefully she could hold her own when they found their prey. Only time would tell. Across the land they moved. Winter forced them farther and farther abroad to find enough food for an entire pack. And with Venom expecting a litter, they were requested to hunt even more. Chimera almost told Hattori that it was his responsibility to look after his woman and his whelps, but he'd made a promise to be whatever Venom needed. And so... he hunted.

The gully was different than the last time he'd been here. Ice coated everything. Each paw fall brought an audible crunch into the air. It would be impossible to perform a stealthy hunt, so the pair of wolves would be forced to hunt in the open. Speed and skill would be of the utmost import. Chimera knew nothing of Viper, but he hoped that the silent woman would be able to follow cues. If he had to verbally tell her where to go and what the plan was, he might as well just hunt on his own. Really, he would have preferred to do so. Why had he agreed to hunt in pairs? Because he was being a good little boy... Gross.

Cresting a hill within the gully, there was a large dip in the land. Just as Viper saw the trio, Chimera saw them as well. What in the hell were they? Both predators stood there, dumbfounded. Chimera tilted his head slightly, wondering if a different perspective might show him what they were, but that failed as well. The giant boy spared a glance at his companion, wondering if he could catch any recognition in her face. There was nothing there. A low rumble sounded in his chest and both ears tucked back against his skull in frustration. Well, the only way to figure out what in the hell they were would be to get close. For that to happen, they would have to scare the other two creatures away. But which beast to target? From where he stood, the dire boy could see the tails of two out of three. Two on the left had large, spiked tails. The one on the right did not appear to be spiked. That would have to be their target. Less chance of being injured.

Looking to Viper, Chimera canted his head towards the rightmost target, indicating that he had chosen. Dropping into a lope, the young wolf crunched across the icy snow in pursuit of their quarry. All three beasts lifted their heads but seemed nonplussed at being hunted. Perhaps they were used to being hunted? Coming in between the spiky ones and the non-spikey once, Chimera realized just how big these things were. They continued to graze, breaking through the ice and snow to scrape their flat teeth across the ground in the hopes of scratching up a bit of old, dead grass. They still paid little mind to the smaller creatures walking around them.

They had to get them running. Chimera sank his teeth into the leg of one spiked beast and it grunted, immediately shaking its tail and slamming it into the ground. Chi jumped back out of instinct even though the tail wasn't coming towards him. Again he moved in to bite the elbow of one creature and slowly it began to waddle off, taking its spiked tailed companion with it. The unspiked one began to move as well, but Chimera placed himself between and snarled and snapped. Unspike turned and began moving in the opposite direction to get away from the sound more than the threat. That's all that the wolves needed for now. The next step? Tip it.
