Everything happened all at once, though Corvus had enough experience in hunting that he knew that was often the case. Making plans was one thing, following through with them another entirely - but oftentimes it came down to just acting on instinct and hoping you made the right choice. This moment was no exception. He sprung forward for the deer's throat as it collided with the wire and stumbled. In a moment of panic it bucked back hard, kicking Corvus hard in his midsection.
For a moment he stumbled, the wind knocked out of him; but after a moment of regaining his composure, as the deer fought to stand, he too found his bearings and struck again, this time harder. Fortunately Balthier wasn't far behind their prey, though Corvus focused on his jaws closing down on the deer's throat. Though he felt blood trickling onto his tongue the deer still kicked back at him, swinging its hindquarters away from the two wolves in a last ditch attempt to shake himself free, not that he'd get far now even if he did escape.
