Chimera echoed her thoughts, if she was small she needed to hunt small things. Maybe that was why she was attracted to the tiny deer. Not that she had a single chance to catch one but their smaller forms were much closer to her size. Kiyohime didn’t hesitate when he commanded her come along with him. The small girl gave one last look at the retreating ungulates as her mismatched paws carried her after her massive uncle. She was curious what he had in mind for her as they carefully crossed the floating bridge. She blinked up at him curiously but didn’t utter a word of it as he told her to sit and wait. The girl nodded slightly and lowered her haunches to the snowy sand to wait.
Ike didn’t know how long she had to wait for her uncle but the girl didn’t lose her focus so easily. One of her first lessons was just how to remain still when she was told. It was a difficult task for someone of her size and youth, but she had a huge drive to make her parents proud. It seemed like doing the difficult thing was always how to attain that goal.
She was losing her focus when Chimera reappeared from the forest, a fluff of struggling feathers in his mouth. Bright eyes widened as the man stalked forward and released the dove. It fluttered and fell to the sand, very quickly using its waddling feet to return to the forests. As Chimera rounded and sat behind her she twisted to look at him. She nodded at his instructions, not quite understanding what she meant but keeping them in mind no matter what.
The dual toned girl strode forward, having not forgotten where she saw the bird enter the brush. The first instruction was to get the bird’s scent and Ike’s tiny pink nose was to the ground memorizing the fearful scent. Her tiny form slipped into the forest, knowing she couldn’t rely on her eyes to find the prize. Be careful of how loud your paws are, she walked slowly and kept her tiny body against the ground.
The dove was suffering from the pain of a broken wing and it didn’t make it very far before it had hunkered down to wait the wolves out. Shuriken was inexperienced, but this was an easy target. Still, when Ike managed to pounce on the white bird she was more surprised she caught it than anything. Like Chimera she grabbed it in her tiny jaws. She wrestled with it for a moment, realizing that moment she didn’t know how to kill the bird.
